I'd say Gladiator armor is pretty far up there in favorite armors. At least, the chest piece.

I'd defiantely agree on Elite Dragon, Elite Canthan as well me thinks.

Most Liked: Elite Kurzick is just wonderul.

Least Likes: Anything reskinned, so pretty much all the EOTN armors. If not reskinned armor, than I would have to say Elite Dragon.

Maybe I'm the only one but I rather like Monument.

I agree on the Elite Dragon though, it's wretched.

Not sure why warrior Obby is so popular either. Other than the helmet, I find it's pretty bad. Although I have ranger Obby which I also find ugly so maybe its a case of buying the armor just to have it for a certain toon...

Will always love Elite Platemail dyed black before the update. On male or female, that's how all warrior's should look like. will keep my set dyed like that 4eva <3

Hate: the EoTN reskins were a disappointment. Also, the Ringmail everyone likes to dye black and look funny with.... horrible.

least favourite: elite charr hide and elite dragon. the charr hide is too similar to the normal, and the dragon just doesn't look very good Imo. favourite would probably be vabbian. in all of nightfall its the only armour set that i find really looks african. the primeval looks like it belongs to the factions campaign to me? +1 for variation!

favorite: Silver Eagle(but it's starting to wear on me)

least: Obby(why must everyone dye it black?)

in truth, I like pretty much whatever I don't see all the time. Saw a warrior in a pug urgoz game running with regular canthan armor.

In general, I find that Proph and Factions armour is better looking than NF or EotN (for all professions, not just W). I have at least one set of 15k armour on all of my PvE characters, and it's mostly from Tyria and Cantha.

Favorites are Elite Templar, Elite Kurzick

Dislike:
Primeval (sonic the hedgehog ftl)
Obsidian (kinda ok on females, completely stupid looking on males)

Never been a fan of male warriors in general so I'll only comment on female armors.

Favorite

Elite Kurzick

Vabbian


Least liked

Primeval ( honesty, I see this everywhere and in the same colors, plus it's already lame looking to me so this just makes it boring and lame)

Elite Gladiator

Obsidian ( just looks overly bulky in all the wrong places to me)
