Any Heavy armor that looks kinda light to wear?

Zodiac, maybe. Also for females, Phalanx is fairly light looking.

If you’re looking for simply revealing, for males it might be pit fighter or barbaric.

Braham Eirsson’s armor.

Braham Eirsson’s armor.

That’s a good one too.

There are some heavy pieces that are either entirely cloth or show a lot of skin.

Just go into the sPvP lobby and browse the locker there – you can preview everything in one place.

What armor you using in the first picture?

Draconic armor looks kind of like a mage type armor. If you check the wiki you can view most of the armor sets on all of the races. (The bottom of the page)

Im just gonna mention Im on a charr, SO chances are they might not look too great :P

Definitely zodiac boots. They look heavy on the light armored class – the main reason I use it on my Mesmer.

The Scarlet’s Veil skin also looks quite heavy – though some don’t like that skin (each to their own!).

Edit: Nvm, I thought you meant heavy looking light armor.

If ‘light’ means skimpy, how about this one? Barbaric armor which can be bought on TP.

My favourite armor when I wanna look kind of light-armor-ish is definitely Honor of the Waves, just hide the shoulders and gloves then test some different dye jobs.

The set looks pretty good on Charr, too.

Also, Twilight Arbor doesn’t look too heavy, if you’re into that kind of thing.

Norn Cultural Tier 1 for chest and gloves.
Aetherblade-style heavy armor for pants (gemstore).
Exotic “Named sets” boots.

Thank you! Truly an awesome mix

Norn cultural looks light-ish, specially tiers 1 and 2.
Sylvari cultural tiers 1 and 2 also looks a bit light, IMHO.
There are the pit fighter, battler and gladiator skins (PvP names):

If you’re willing to go gemstore, Braham armor also looks lightish (actually, just looking at it I’d have guessed it to be medium armor).

I like the mix of Brahams Chest and Etherblade Pants .. is maybe not really light but more medium, but for me it has a little Back Widow Style

this non-heavy, heavy armor landed me third place out of 500+ entries on gameskinny. part of the fun is guessing which pieces were mixed and matched. details will be given if requested. it’s still one of my favorite iterations on my guardian, though i’ve moved onto different setups since then.
