Actually, sorta yeah. I did make a sin after seeing pictures of Vabbian armor in NF screen shots prior to its release (who knew that would be so expensive).
I also though ancient for a dervish looked good and made him as well (mostly because NF was JUST new so its not like anybody had any understanding of what a dervish really did yet).
I don't feel like I'm "forced" to play them. My sin is definately my 2nd or 3rd favorite character (though my ranger is slowly climbing the ranks) and my dervish is a lot of fun to play in certain scrub PvP when I just need to hit things.
Have you ever made a character *just* to have an armor set?

I made a mesmer to get Primeval armor, but I never actually got around to finishing Nightfall on her.
So I made the character, but I can't stand playing it enough to get the armor I wanted.

Rak Orgon of Beowulf
yeah. Female Mesmer Elite Canthan that dragon is ftw
Zena Starlight
Oh yeah lol.
Paragon=Norn Armor
Mesmer=Norn Armor
Necromancer=Elite Luxon (though I do pvp with her once in awhile)
Assassin=Elite Luxon (Bought for ecto farming, but now I rarely use since the nerf)
So, I think thats where most of my money goes >.>

Same thing, I made a rit to have a mummy.

Yes, male ranger for Ancient.
Then I deleted him a year later.

No, but my plan is to make male and female character for all profession, all getting the GWAMM title hehehe
Wish me luck.

I will admit...yes I did make a character strictly for an armor set. Luckily it turned out to be my favorite charicter. Went with necro for the NF end game armor set. Cant remember the name of it. But its the one that everyone calls the "fish" armor... but i call my angel wings. I also did get the FoW armor for her as well. But only after a lot of time and effort. She has the elite Canthan armor as well, and the Vabbi armor. I got her a set of armor from EOTN to finish off my hall for her, but deleted that armor afterwords. Just did not like the way it colored. Would not have bothered with armor from EOTN at all if I didn't need that 5th set for the HoM.
nkuvu
Not really, no.
I made a mesmer on my primary account with full intention to get elite Rogue armor. But that was more to replace the mesmer on my secondary account than for the armor itself.

Yes. I made a female ranger so I could get the 1.5k Kurzick set. I have a male ranger but I hung up his bow long ago. Recently I bought the norn armor for my female ranger.
MiraBlackhand
Yup
Monk for Labby Tats / FoW
Necro for 15k Kurzick
Sin for Asuran
I am about to make a second warrior (but male this time, my current female war is already spoiled beyond belief) for FoW / Elite Sunspear / 15k Glad.

Lord Sojar
Yes, my mesmer. Oh, but I also made her to twist the minds of others in PvP so horrifically, they would kill themselves. Female Mesmer FoW armor is so sexy.
fenix
I made my Ele just for FoW.
It looks badass.

ErnardAurili
I made a paragon for regular Sunspear Armor, an I also made a warrior just for regular Templar Armor. Don't play either of them often, although that paragon ended up becoming my survivor character (almost r2).
upier
I never play my monk - I almost never play my warrior.
Looking pretty is enough for these two ...
For the longest of times I kept a ranger - because I loved this set:
I just deleted him because I hated his name. (Keep in mind he was almost 2 years old and used as storage only ...)
Plus I recently remade my necro to be able to pull this off:
The white guy wouldn't look good enough in it.
Valkyria
Mesmer for FoW,Ranger for Ancient,Dervish for Vabbian,Ele for Stormforged,2nd Ele for Stormforged,Para for Primeval and Sin for Vabbian.
5/7 of those chars either have 20-30 hours playtime over year or so or they're deleted (aka mesmer and ranger and dervish and 1st ele :P).
I didn't touch ele or sin for about 6 months after creation. Now they're kinda my main chars.

ElinoraNeSangre
I made a dark skinned female ele just to get Elite Sunspear. I didn't think it'd look that great on my air ele, so I created a new one. She ended up being a fire ele and I found I loved fire way more than I'd thought. 
cosyfiep
would have to say no. but I have made every class ---some have stayed mules (yes my sin), while I have played other mules---my dervish finally got some air time and hope to get her norn, but she was a mule first. Its more like they finally got a decent creation template so I made them (which is why I dont have many males ....and why it took me until nightfall to make a warrior--its a girl!).
Odinius
Made a male dervish with the egyptian beard just to give him white vabbian armor, looks like a true king
I already had a female one but saw the male armor too late.
Never played him after I put it in the HoM though.

pamelf
Yes indeed. I made my monk to get Ancient. I liked the armour, bought it for my NF monk only to discover it looked absolutely TERRIBLE on her, so I rerolled the monk as a prophecies character and went through both campaigns with her just to get the armour on a character that it would look half decent on.
Fubo
Yeh , Mesmer Female FoW.
I liked the armour but havent played my mesmer since =X

However, I give up every time I remember I must go for Legendary Survivor again. All of my characters HAVE to have it, I cannot accept the fact I 'missed' a title permanently.
Maybe with the title update on thursday I'll get to make new chars.
Orfas
yeah made a mesmer so i could get elite canthan now that i have it i dont even touch her :P

Shadowfox1125
You know what? I would, but they're EotN armor sets.. and I absolutely hate the r5 requirement. Complete turn off.
Dr.Jones
Yes all the other 9 non main toons have elite armor. i play some of them i think i would play my other toons more if more titles were account based.
The Bard
ya, couple of times, but if i didn't enjoy playing the character i didn't get the armor and deleted him/her 
don't remember which of the ones i have still were made mainly to get an armor since i enjoy playing them a lot hehe

XiaoTheBlade
My assassin.
Got to mainland Cantha, then went to nightfall, went through the whole nightfall game up to Bone Palace with the armour from Ran Musu Gardens. (Nundu Bay was the only real struggle)
But assassins suddenly became better at pve, and my sin is one of my currently being used characters atm. (pre mesmer, paragon, sin)

No. I play Guild Wars, not The Sims. I play professions that I enjoy. Screenshots are readily available when I want to see armor art from other classes.
killerbot3009
yeah, i made my ele for the obsidian armour to add to my collection, and a male monk for the awsome armour which is labyrinth i think lol, dont ever use him
Big_Iron
Made a Mez just to get Canthan Elite armor. Naturally, I never got around to it.
kratimas
No I have not, and never will.
Thanks for asking

If it counts, I made my Rit, finished only Cantha, farmed a bit and after getting Elite Kurzick armor, I didn't play more than 30 minutes on it.
H2SO4
female warrior with 15k glad torso and kurzick leggings... I thought it would look better but I think I need black dyes..
Chokey
I made a female necro with bright blue hair so I could have bright blue Asuran.
Shes my main earner now,playing N/Rt in UW Clears.

This thread is relevant to my interests.
I have ALWAYS regretted not making a female ranger, especially after seeing the Elite Druid and Elite Studded Leather armors. So I bought another a slot and made one...working on survivor title at Gunnars right now.
Also want a paragon, most likely will buy a slot during winter break, after my college applications

Sometime after Factions was released I saw a picture of female 15k luxon/1k kurzick boots, so I created a canthan elementalist just to get that armor. I'm fairly happy with that. Also grinded EoTN for a set of male ranger dwarven armor, instant mule.
Recently, I'm trying(blame bad-name syndrome) to make a female canthan necromancer with the 'boyish' hair style on a suggestion and I'm going for 15k kurzick armor. The only difference is, it probably won't become a mule.
