I’m trying to find some heavy armor that looks great. I know people combind them but I’m not good at them. So for all you people with amazing imaginations post your heavy armored characters here and if you may please tell what they’re wearing.

Just a heads up, this skin is good if you are female or have a small model. The texture stretches if you have say a Norn or a Charr.

Vigil
Banded
HotW
AC
Barbaric

^All really good sets. Here’s my current char with mix nd matched gear:

-Some heart helmet (Search “Icedevil Helm”)
-Hotw shoulders
-Hotw gloves
-AC Chest
-Vigil pants
-Hotw greaves

It’s a shame hotw armour is some of the best in the game because it’s the most absolutely boring dungeon to run.

I’m at work at the moment so can’t post a picture, but for my Norn guardian I found a combination of the primeval armor with the Norn T1 cultural pauldrons and fiery vambraces (from the HoM) worked well. Gunmetal or graphite with tarnished steel works well for met but YMMV

I like the heritage armor set in abyss for my warrior as well.

I would prefer you didn’t look like me.

Here’s my advice (which you can take or leave) – head to the Mists and visit the PvP banks there. There will be tabs for nearly every armor and weapon in the game. You can right-click on the ones of the appropriate armor type and select “preview”.

Do this until you find a tunic you like, a set of pauldrons you like, some greaves you like, etc. Put together something that blends well; they don’t all have to be from the same set as long as you’ve got a look that matches nicely.

Create your own unique look this way, track down where the PvE variants come from, go about collecting them, and then smile a little whenever you see yourself (and hopefully only yourself) in it.

Before I could afford the Protector’s gear, I was using Draconic Gauntlets and Pit Fighter Boots. Before I realised how much I like the Visionary’s Helm, I was going to use the Avenger’s Headguard (Human tier 2).
I would take the Nobleman’s Leggings if they weren’t so beaten up…
It would look something like this: (I prefer my new one)

One of the few heavy Charr you’ll see that doesn’t look like a hulking spike monster:

• Primeval Warplate
• Fur of Koda
• Invader’s Gauntlets (there is a karma item in the Blazeridge Steppes with the same skin but won’t cost you eighty million badges of honor)
• Draconic Boots

Helm and shoulders hidden since I cannot find a design that doesn’t either look horrible or floaty on Charr. If you’re a non-Charr you could probably add an Ascalonian helm and either the Ascalon shoulders or Arms of Koda to this set.

To be honest, I don’t like most armor, but changing dye color can make a great difference. I do like that Roman Gladiator style helm a lot. I just generally dislike most helms that cover my Guardian’s face too much (I find Koda helm rather cute because of that.) I have mixed and match a lot too, and I have an alternate mix-n-match set, but this is the set I use most of the time-a whole vanilla self-crafted Draconic set, with a “holy” theme to it achieved through white-ish/golden-ish dyes, to match the character concept of my Guardian.

I dislike spiky, ugly, or “brutal” looking armor for my character, or anything else that (for me of course) kind of tries too hard to make a “look at me, I am such a bad**s effer” statement. For those reasons, most “elite” armors in the game don’t suit my character-they seem to be to odd/funny looking to fit her concept (hopefully they add better-fitting sets for her in the future.)

For my warrior I wanted her to be a knightly heroic lady instead of the stereotypical loud and barbaric warrior, and I think my current sets fits the style pretty well. She doesn’t look mean but she looks strong and resiliant with all that metal, the huge gloves and the shoulders.

This is all heritage armor except the legs that are from the draconic set, because I wanted something that flows. Mainly silver and green dyes with some blues here and there. My only issue is those huge boot clipping issues, but that can be expected when mix and matching armor from different sets.

This is a great use of combinding armor that flows really well. If I didn’t know they were different pieces I could have easily confused them for 1 set. Way to go!

Which one? I assume it’s the first one (most people ask me about that), it’s using arah legs and boots, pit fighter arms and chest, the shoulders and helmet I rarely put on so they’re not significant.

The other set is more of something to see how much skin I can reveal and I really liked the stockings. I think it’s a mix between gladiator chest with t2 human boots.. the leggings I can’t remember, it’s from a lower level blue item
