Hey all! Okay, so I'm getting very close to the mark on my "Chadley Bradley 15k Armor Fund." (I know, after 2.5 years, he's finally saved enough, right? 
) So close that I now have to figure out what armor I'm going to invest in! See, before GWEN, I was saving for the Elite Enchanter's armor which I planned to dye all white, and it would look something like this:
Then, GWEN came out, and I started to like the Mesmer Norn armor which I would still dye white acheving something similar to this:
(imagine it's white)
But THEN I started thinking the exact opposite direction (after the Thunderhead keep Masters night actually) and decided it would look SWEET to get my hands on 15k Kurzick armor, dye it all black, craft a black bandada, and be Wesley from Princess Bride!! Reference:
And I know, it's not just like him because, for one, he doesn't wear a coat, but of the potentially all black mesmer armors, that's my favorite. Anyway, I'm a pretty big fan of this last idea despite the EXTRA time (as if there wasn't enough) to get materials, but as usual, I'd love to hear what the guildies say.
The other idea is to scrap the mesmer armor, and buy it all for my paragon who I've been using all but exclusively lately without much willingness to change. My ultimate "look" idea with that (which would take forever, I'm sure) is a dark kind of black and purple mix ideally with tomented spear and shield. Question there is can it be well-achieved without FoW armor? That's definitely outside the budget range... Thoughts please!!
