Post what you think is the coolest looking armor. Me, I am a big Paladin (Wa/Mo in this game, and have always loved tanking), the whole knight in shining armor passion. So i go for this:

Although, i am new to the game >< can somebody please tell me what that armor set is called and how it is acquired? And if there is anything cooler, like white and gold and shiny, please post. Thanks.

And, if you're into a completely different kind, like the black and red evil warrior in armor look, post that too. This forum IS titled, "Best Looking Armor."

Thats 1.5k Platemail from Droknars Forge. The 15k version looks better. Personally though Gladiators 15k with a FoW helm looks nice. I have full fow on my warror though.

to clear it up, being new, this armour is obtained from the original game:

Guild Wars Prophercies, If you just have the Factions game you will not be able to obtain this piece of armour.
Location in the original campaign is at Droknars Forge, better 15k edition is located at Granite Citadel.

I think wyvern armor dyed black or silver looks best.

Personally I too am a fan of the 15k Glads with FoW helmet, though i'm waiting on my FoW helmet until I see all the new sets from Factions.... Too bad that I can't seem to find a reliable source of pics on them.

I've attached a pic of my warrior, it's my favorite combination of armors, mostly 15k glads, the gauntlets are 15k ascalon all dyed black, and the helm is FoW dyed red+black.

chrislee149, I believe that armor picture is a 15k variant from Cantha.

In my view 15k Platemail is by far the best-looking Warrior armor in the game.

I absolutely hate how Glad's armor and the bottom part of Fissure armor looks. Wish the devs would make those two things look better. I'd never buy Fissure armor for that reason; it looks bad due to the disproportioned bottom half.

15k Gladiator's Armour with Ascalon Boots-the most effective(fact) and attractive(opinion) setup there is.

Da Cebuano is on the right track, but you gotta kick it up to 15k kurzick. This isn't the best pic I've seen of it, but it's all I could find real quick. Still saving for mine.

I like my 15k glads with ascalon helmet, and am positively DROOLING over the kurzick armor. I mean, it looks like SAURON! You've gotta agree that that's cool.

And 15k female glads isn't armor, it's a bikini. :P

The effective part isn't true anymore. The Canthan Armors with the same stats are every bit as effective.

Some of the coolest looking armors in the game, like 15k Platemail and 15k Ascalon, are rarely seen because of their stats. I hope that Tyria gets a refit that allows skins and stats to be separated like the Cantha armors...

Anorexic? That Kurzick armor is the thickest female armor yet.

But that statement delves into demographics and opinions. Something you should try and avoid on public forums.

I for one am fond of the Kurzick armor, and I'm luxon to boot^^
