Rate the Norn Screenshot above you!
Color consistency makes it match though! 7/10
Ima try again without glowy red berserker eyes so you can see his face better! also scowly face. roar.
Also modified the outfit some.
Not much of a rating since I can’t post more* norn, will leave that to the next person, but.
Excelsior.
Or rather.
Hawt.
Moving on.
*Edit. Was not meant to be a “most”.

Moving on.
Totally read that in Trahearne’s voice
Actual armor + color pattern choice + face choice: +8
Scarlet’s Eyes: -1
But it’s a warrior, why lava gloves!: -1
Dat chest piece: +17/10
I don’t know which norn to post, and I am not a fan of multiposts… so have all my norn instead.
Why -1 for the Scarlet eyes? They look cool on his toon. MY Necro has those eyes so +1 on the Scarlet eyes.

The last one to post a norn was Nasuradin, so here’s my rating:
Overall: 8/10
Armour: 7/10
He’s quite the hunk! Although I guess by norn standards, he’s more of a “pretty boy”
The armour combination you use is largely fine. It’s a nice mix of T1 and T3 norn cultural skins, although I think that way you are playing it maybe a little too safe.
Unfortunately, the one piece of gear you use to break it up a bit is a skin which just doesn’t mesh well with the overall style. Even if we discount the fact that those vambraces are of human origin and a norn shouldn’t really have a reason to wear something dedicated to Dwayna, the style just doesn’t fit, either. Well, I suppose it can be a nice idea to sometimes break with the overall style (which, in your case, is more rough, barbarian-like), but I just feel like it doesn’t quite work.
To be fair though, it’s still a lot better than the random achievement gauntlets you had on the first screen! (I don’t mind the glowing eyes, however.)
Colours are great!
Here’s my norn elementalist in her battle armour. I consider this her visceral combat look. The highlights are the general silhouette, the mask (especially with her shaved head and tattoo) and her mantle. Oh, and the fingertips!
I will try to make her look like a raven shaman for her next armour set.

Naaaah, Scarlet eyes make everything just weird…
not level 80 yet but i LOVE my norn warrior. her name is fjore, say hi
i feel like she has a much more traditionally ‘norn’ feel than a lot of other norns i see.
went back to snowden JUST to get an authentic backdrop for these screenshots lmao

Inkie Here!
I like the norn warrior look of moon above me. Suits the character and race.
Unlike a Norn Ele that has to deal with light armor. So I went for a more interesting asthetic look that is part Mad Max and part Cher. She has 15k ach pts but spends most of her time in WVW JQ server.
So next time your waiting for a rez just say hi
Inkie
Inkie : definitely a unique look ! Kinda scary on the battle field too. I guess it fits WvW pretty well
I wanted my mesmer Norn Atkascha to be as feminine as possible. Not an easy task for a giant woman lol
8.5/10 That is a very pretty lady you have there.
Here is my warrior of the North:
The world could use more S/x Thief
FIST FLURRY! ORA!!
8.5 / 10
A classic Nornish look. Looks like she is about to go beast mode and not worry her armor is going to fail her.
Here is My Javen Nigh, Thief of Raven

9/10
nice but dont like the glasses :P
Heres my Ranger: Slavic Varg
Should I go left where nothing is right,
or right where nothing is left?
I like Varg’s look except I think the hood color is too dark so that it stands out in comparison to the rest of his armor.
I have two Norn – my vigil guardian, Jan Elkjar, and my ranger of the order of whispers, Aurora Wildborn. She is dressed to blend in with most backgrounds whether it is cities or hostile terrain.

I give you an 7.5/10. I think they look great, simple, yet great.
I love messing around with skins! I’m sort of a collector to be honest, spent loads of gold and real money to purchase gems just for skins haha. So many good options to mix and match with. And all the possible dye options….I can never get enough I tell ya haha.
Time for me to get in here…Here is my female warrior, Couldn’t decide on just one picture so here is a few from different angles and scenes.
Hope you guys like it
I know I do haha
9/10. It’s clear you spent time and effort on the outfit and mixed and matched a lot of stuff and dyes. End results is a not over the top, Norn feeling set of gear. It doesn’t even feel like ‘heavy armor’ all that much. Not a huge fan of the Celestial blue stuff, but I understand you can’t dye it…
Here’s my Norn Thief;
Tier 1 Cultural with the Subterfuge Hood and Rox’s Quiver. Since the quiver cannot be dyed I was stuck with the color of the leather(brown) and metal(steel/iron) if I wanted to present the gear as a whole, not separate pieces.
Also, the Subterfuge Hood suffers from something common among ‘unique’ profession pieces in that it becomes a different shade if dyed in the same manner as the armor. So I had to go for a lighter shade to approach the Midnight Fuchsia used in the armor, but it’s not perfect.
for the above, i like the armor, but the coloring is a bit bland, therefore 7/10.
Heres mine, took a while to setup the armor, almost every piece is a different armor.

I like your color theme and the “technological” feel of the armor but I don’t think it is too fitting for a norn, I will give you an 8 because i know how hard it is to get the color right on orrian armor pieces lol.
this here is my norn guardian, i went for a pretty standard kitten mix but i like how it looks on him, not too sure about the colors though :mmh:
8/10
The colours make him look a little like a warrior, and thats something that often confuses me :8
Here’s my female guardian tho. Not lvl 80 yet so i’ll propably change it up but i rly like the armor i got now :P
8/10 simple and clean. I personally try to be unique from all the rest
Soo here’s my norn mesmer!
Dishy: That is certainly unique. So tricky, she looks like a necromancer. Great eyes. 8/10. The bell bottom pants under the skirt are not a great piece (personal taste of course), but you did a good job at making it all go well without clashing.
I like to stay in the lore box and make very traditional characters. Here is my ranger.
(edited by Kirkkis.8270)
Thanks Kirkkis! Though I didn’t realize how much my character looked like a necromancer until now which wasn’t my intention xD… and I agree about those leggings. I tried to match my armor to the weapons but eventually I’m going to go for more mesmer weapons like torment but they’re so freaking expensive…
I revamped my armor pieces to give it a more Elona feel to it but still norn and played around with different shades of the same color. I chose feather armor to show she’s associated with raven.
Oh and I love the look you gave your norn. She reminds me of Pocahontas
(I’ll leave someone else to rate you since I already rated)
