I was checking dulfy (http://dulfy.net/2015/01/20/gw2-arcane-outfit-pact-fleet-finisher-and-mini-braham-in-gemstore/) and realized that the Arcane Outfit bears a striking resemblance to Dervish robes from gw1!

An outfit that has no actual gameplay function…. how does that equate to dervish aspects? I’m tying to find your logic here but I’m just not seeing it. Sure, it looks like something a GW1 Dervish might wear, but come on. Besides, the revenant is to have heavy armor, and if you look here https://heartofthorns.guildwars2.com/en you can see what the revenant class might look like armor wise.

What you are suggesting is kind of saying that the noble count outfit would have some benefits of human nobility, or the chef outfit would somehow give you access to new cooking recipes. It’s purely cosmetic and have no bearing on current or future gameplay mechanics or playable professions.

Give us more GW 1 weapon and armor skins, please. COPY/PASTE ALREADY!!!!

I see your point. I’m just hoping for the Revenant to be somewhat Dervish-like so I can use the Arcane Robes and make believe I’m a Dervish from GW1. =]

Norn racial armor seem more dervish-like to me, with all the dangling bits that fly out when you spin around.

I should be writing.

I liked the dervish as well, but clearly the revenant is closer to the ritualist than the dervish. Until we get a profession that sacrifices their own boons in favor of a power boost, we have no dervish.

No dervish were more than just that. They also were about taking spiritual forms which is what the Revenant does as well. They take the abilities of spiritual souls instead of holy gods.
