To counter the "Overrated" thread, let's see what everybody really likes in GW.

My favourite skin's a hard one.
I really like some of the prestige weapon skins such as Jade Sword and Fiery Gladius (especially when dyed black), but my favourites are quite often unassuming skins like the Avian Axe or the desert collector's Longsword

For shields, I'm fond of the Asuran shield and the Norn shield, but my favourite is the furry Militia shield.

Favourite title's a hard one, as titles are responsible for driving me away from the game, but I got all of the Cartographer titles before the advent of texmod, so I guess I'm proud of that.

My favourite armour is warrior Tyrian (sans helmet). Practical, not too showy and well designed.

Accomplishment's difficult, but I've been around for so long, I'm one of the few (the very few) who can claim to have capped Battle Rage with the old capture system. That's when you could only cap a skill as the boss was using it, and if you think about it, stances are mostly instant activation.
There's no title for that, I can't prove I did it (aside from some old screenshots), but I know I did it, and I know I had to be clever about it

So how about you?

The sweetest things about GW:
1. Max Lucky
2. Max Sweet Tooth
3. The Tiger emote - love the cute pussy - don't care in the slightest about the title itself

weapon: Divine Staff. My favorite skin for my monk. She has numerous pre-inscription golds that were fun to collect.
shield: Exalted Aegis. Its simply my favorite skin. My favorite actual shield is not one of the green flavors but a max gold pre-inscription I have.
title: Legendary Guardian. Quite simply the most fun I had pursuing any title, pre-Ursan, pre-consumables.
armor: Monk fissure. Meant a lot to get it for her. She has other favorite sets she wears more often, but that FoW set had the most meaning.

Indeed ; beeing pro in ursan makes you badass -.- r10 lfp ?

; in my opnion one of the greatest accomplishments in PvE is refusing to run badass ursan [xD?] ;

in PvP that would be playing some top 50 GvG matches ; and accualy having fun in AB with some friends and all ;



An other thing in PvE might be resisting to look "badass" but original ;
Yes i have had my share of tormented weapons and obsidian armor .. but i sold / salvaged it all because if inreal if your rich ? you going to buy an expensive car you don't like ? ;you going to wear some Hugo Boss suit you don't like ? didn't think so =)

A nice example of this is the lad i quoted ; he names the 3 highest costing weapons / shields [ excluding "exclusive things ofc " ]
