In defence and/or looks: What is the best armor in the game? Is it a certain collectors armor, or do you buy it? Where do you get it from, and how much does it cost?

So what's the point in 15k+ armor when you can just get Drok's? Looks? Bragging rights? I have Drok's, is there any point in getting anything other than that?

Pretty much. I personally don't like many of the FoW armors (The Warrior FoW looks like Shredder from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!), but I think some of the 15ks are decent and aren't that far off price-wise. If you're going to be staring at the back of your character for hundreds of hours, why not watch in style?

1.5k armor looks ugly as hell compared to 15k armor.

But its all what you like. Some might hate the Fissure armor, some might love it. Some might hate the 1.5k, but like 15k, its all what you like. Personaly, i dont like the 15k Fissure for Warrior, but love the Ranger fissure. I also like combining armor, like 15k gladiator body armor with Ascalon helm( lots of warriors do this). Just something to spend your money on.

If you didnt know what armor looks like, there you go

This topic has also worn out its welcome. Again, it boils down to your opinion of whether you want performance only, or both performance and eye candy. Personally, I'm a huge fan of distinguishing oneself from the rest. 15K/Fissure Armor ftw.
