Guild Wars 2

Post may contain spoilers for another game, so be warned.

So I have a character image concept in mind and I’d like some help fleshing it out. I created a Human Guardian named Zelg Kadohl. For those of you familiar with the game Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, this is a rather blatant allusion to Zelgius, earl of Kadohl. The image I had in mind was of his other identity, as the mysterious Black Knight.

I’m fairly new to the game. While I can get the dyes mostly right with default dyes (ebon seems to match the black pretty well), I wonder if there are better dyes. Also, are there any armor sets that will closely resemble this?

The Black Knight was a peerless swordsman yet an honorable warrior. He followed orders, yet was a warrior through and through, wanting to test his mettle against his former teacher. As Zelgius, he commanded respect due to his honor and valor in battle. As the Black Knight, he commanded fear from enemies due to his mysterious nature. He followed the will of his master who believed in him, despite his master’s embittered hatred for the world.

The character I have here is supposed to be that same Black Knight, given another chance at life by the (foreign to Tyria) chaos goddess Yune due to his honor and loyalty, despite his misguided master. He spends it masked behind his black armor, feeling himself unworthy to take his identity as Zelgius back until he atones. Thus, he wanders Tyria as Zelg, the Black Knight.

Abyss dye is most black dye in game, but cost just insane.

Abyss dye works. but I’m also looking for a white or pearl dye that might work for the trim. At the same time, I am looking for similar armor styles. Is there any armor out there that is similar? I don’t suppose there are pauldrons as large as that, and I know capes/cloaks don’t appear to be present,

I am sure you will be able to get something similar to the picture together. Take a look at http://www.gw2armorgallery.com/ and pick what you like.

The whitest white is celestial, but it also cost ridiculous amounts.
