Hi,
I thought I would share my thoughts on what armors from GW1 I really liked and would like to see carried over to GW2. I made a rather long list of armors I like and I would also like to see others post what armors from GW1 they want to have in GW2.

Mesmer Elite Rogue (female although male is also good)
Probably my favorite armor out of them all, I just love how slick and tight it looks and that is the armor I made my GW1 mesmer ware most often (and she is my favorite character). I really want to see this one make a comeback and not go through much if any redesign at all.

Mesmer Elite Enchanter (female)
Very nice for a mesmer and I think GW2 could use more armors styled similarly to that one.

Mesmer Elite Kurzick (female)
I really like this one and it is really fitting for a mesmer (and currently mesmer styled armors are a bit lacking in GW2), would be cool to add when we get to go back to Cantha (as with all other Kurzick and Luxon armors on this list).

Mesmer Norn (another female mesmer armor I like)
It looks nice and I think we need some coats for scholars in GW2.

Necromancer Krytan (male and female)
No armor is more fitting for a necromancer than this vampy looking one

Necromancer Kurzick (male and female)

Necromancer Elite Kurzick (male and female)

Dervish Elite Sunspear (male and female)
I love this one but it maybe does not fit very well for the medium armor wearing professions we currently have.

Dervish Vabbian (female)
Same point as with Dervish Elite Sunspear but this one might work as a light armor.

Dervish Monument (male)
I love the samurai look.

Elementalist Kurzick (female)
I think this one is overall pretty good but I dont like how the glove part gets wider then the sleeves.

Those ware the ones I most want to see but here are some more I also think are pretty cool:

Assassin Kurzick (male)

Assassin Elite Luxon (male)

Elementalist Ascalon (male)

Ranger Elite Druid (female)
I just like it, don’t judge

Ritualist Shing Jea (female)
Simple but I like it

Ritualist Elite Luxon (female)

Ritualist Asuran (female)

Ritualist Vabbian (female)

Necromancer Monument (male and female)

Necromancer Vabbian (female)
A good one for the Elona expansion

Mesmer Shing Jea (female)

Gwen’s default set

Gwen’s Deldrimor set

Master of Whisper’s default set

Any of Razah’s sets

Livia’s default set

Miku’s set
(I know its pieced together of other sets but I also like the bodystocking she has under it)

Eve’s set

Cynn’s set

There are many more good armors in GW1 and it is clear that the designers will not need to look far for new sets to add to the game and I hope that they will not be shy about recycling GW1 armors into gw2. And for those not familliar with the GW1 wiki you can press the link for Male or Female gallery under the pictures of the armorsets on the wiki page if you want to see more pictures of them.
Can’t wait to hear what armors you guys want in GW2

Well, I’d be happy to get all of them and any gear, I just want way more skins, the skins are lacking if you ask me.

My favorite gw armor was the elite knights set. It was the most realistic looking heavy set in the game and had excellent textures.

Warrior Elite kurzick, imo hands down the best looking armor for warriors. I wore mine with the chaos gloves (which they should totally bring back).

I quite liked Mesmer Norn and Granite Citadel sets. Honourable mention to the Obsidian set dyed hot pink. :]

For other professions, the Necro Elite Kurzick was one of my favourites, and the Ranger had a good trenchcoat in the Norn set. Monk Canthan armour had a good pattern to it.
