In my head

I'm not going to even try to type out the specific weapons on my Ranger Warrior:

4 bows
3 swords
3 axes
3 hammers
4 shields

Some of those are just "switch" weapons, used for their mods in different situations. And of course I dont use all of those in one specific build.

I use a poisonous shadow bow of marksmanship for when I run my epidemic.apply poison build. I've got a Perfect Vampiric Hornbow of marksmanship for B/P, I have an Insightful fire staff of warding for +15 energy for trapping. My new W/E uses a zealous fellblade of enchanting and my necromancer uses vilnars staff only. I don't really like the Vilnars set.

Still building my warrior's collection...

But ideally you'd want 3 swords, 3 axes, 3 hammers, and a staff.

I have the swords. Vamp, Zealous, and random elemental(IDS... rofl)
Almost have the axes. Vamp, Zealous, and random elemental.
And I haven't started my hammers yet. Vamp, Zealous, and random elemental.

I use fortitude suffixes on all of those, but defense works too, and whatever else you want.

Get the pattern?

Staff should be whatever you'd use on a trapper...

This is for pvp btw.

Monk uses Wenslaus' because I'm lazy, and it covers all of the bases... with a minor setback.

And the rest I just use pvp characters.

This thread would've been so much more interesting had people been posting stats on their gold weapons, as of now, its very boring, to find a "shield req 7" oh yeah... very very... errr -_-

Anyway, My warr is currently leading on having the most packed. I have 5 swords 3 hammers 2 axes 3 shields, stonefist gauntlets and a helmet for each attribute( axe, sword, hammer, gladiatorhelm(tactics and energy) and 15k platemail helm.. all have a super rune of their respective attribute, the weapon helms are collectors as they are better looking)

Sword:
-IDS of fortitude +24hp
-FDS 15>50 rq 11 +25hp
-Victo blade
-Longsword req 10 15% always -5 energy +5 armor
-Collector 15% stance sword w/ zealous and +6 shelter(am gonna change this to the better skin stance collector sword 2night, preferably when I get sword mods for it, I don't keep mods as I only have the backpack for room -_-)

Axe:
-Sephis axe 13% onstance zealous +5 armor - farming
-Victo axe - all other uses

Hammer:
-Summit hammer 14>50 req 9 fiery mod w/ +29hp - my other warr wacker, ignores the +20% ar vs physical
-Mursaat hammer 15% on stance 5/1vamp +7shelter - frenzy hammer
-Victo's maul - overall hammer

Sheild:
- 45/-2 collector stance sheild
- +21hp always -2stance gold req 8 eternal
- +7 armor slash -2stance req 8 gold skeleton shield

Others:
wand w/ +10% attack increase +5 energy w/ req 8 +30hp +1 20% air magic focus, stonefist gauntlets when I'm hammering, otherwise I use glads armor w/ knights boots, BTW: random fact is that I had 15k dragons, I later salvaged about a few weeks or so cause I could'nt stance the impracticality anymore, I've had that armor since my noob days, all dyed black, still it was sad to say goodbye to it, but I'm not armor collector, it ain't staying in storage.

As for my monk:

Collector healing staff w/ +30hp +7 shelter
all others are farming gears(FFS 19% enchat and -50hp cesta)
planning to make a similar staff but for protting
also planning boon prot built, has devine icon +5 armor +45hp while enchanted) and gonna get a max energy monk heal icon soon when I get the time and already have the -5 CoA scroll, need to get a -5energy weapon soon, I found them but salvaged w/o thinking about it >_<

Ranger:
Graygore short bow
That dead bow green w/ zealous and 15% while enchanted
Longbow(feather) 15^50 req 12 lengthen poison +5 armor
Elwyrth's recurve
Ebon Ascalon short bow of charrslaying +15% ^^ my charr hunting gear
Zealous composite bow of defense 14>50 req 9 +5 armor

STill need to cap skills on this one, also has items for sale I keep on this ranger.

Future necro, his gear is saved on mule:

Hale bonestaff of deathmagic(collector) - +28 hp +1 11% deathmagic(yeah I'm cheap to get a perfect one, I found this ^^)
Koles torment
green 10/10 recharge death wand and +1 20% death magic +30hp death cesta
+12 energy +5 armor -20hp curses gold icon req 8

Future assassin a/w:
Zealous longsword of fortitude req 7 10>50 +20hp - yeah its blue, I found it, its like the most perfect blue weapon I've ever seen drop for me, so I kept it, it'll look great w/:
Grim cesta +3 energy no req +5 armor vs physical +5 armor while attacking - this is as good as a shield, but shields look dumb on an assassin, so I figured a claw like glove would make it look more menacing, while the longsword is there while I try to find a perfect shinobi blade, I'll probly dye the cesta black, to match the armor which is more than likely gonna be black. +10 armor w/ +3 energy w/ no req, I say this is better than a shield if you're going for the I look damn cool look.

I planned on making a collector mesmer staff, but I'll wait in factions, necro needs his gears as he will be made first and and the assassin as well so the name doesn't get taken.

Well, thats it for now, wish people would list the stats on their weapons, would've been more interesting read to see what the general population of weapons we have here.

I'm up to three swords, three axes, three shields, three helmets, and three pairs of boots.

Fiery fellblade of enchanting
Icy dragon sword of defence
Furious longsword of defence

vampiric hand axe of defence
zealous cleaver of defence
vampiric hand axe of enchanting

-2/-2 enchanted/stance shield (tactics)
+7 vs physical damage +36hp always shield (str)
+5 vs dwarves +25hp shield (tactics)

and then variously runed helms and boots - gladiators, ascalon, droks

Between that and my holiday items there goes half my character storage.

Crap... forgot about my bow for pulling.

7 bows for different occasions on my Ranger, including the Candy Cane one. I still mostly use a semi-good shortbow I found in my first month of playing GW the most, though Plus the Handsmasher for trapping.

My Ele only really uses an Insightful earth Raven Staff of Fortitude for warding, Yakslapper for farming, and a longbow for pulling. For every other build I use the Yakslapper, due to being a lazy bastard.
