Talk:Ranger Ancient armor

...I have such mixed feelings.
 * Long coat for females = YES FINALLY.
 * Mummy body wrap = Hmm, okay. Interesting.
 * Hideous bug gauntlets and grieves = AWGH! >_< Arshay Duskbrow 18:50, 29 October 2006 (CST)

Lol, I tried combining it with other armor, a lot of gloves and boots combine very well make it a less 'buggy' effect :D Gaia Iberia

Yeah, I thought of that, but even still that ridiculous shoulder pad ruins the symmetry. On the whole I'm disappointed with the Ranger Female Nightfall armors, moreso because almost all the other classes got some great looking stuff. If they'd just left off those damn bugs, this would've been glorious. :| Arshay Duskbrow 23:19, 30 October 2006 (CST)


 * Can someone with the male version describe the coat movement as you move? Druid's coat (both 1.5k and 15k) are so glitchy! As you run, your legs go through the bottom part of the 1.5k, and the 15k bottom part gets really pointy to prevent your legs going through it....both look pretty bad. Let's also not forget the really low-res textures that make it look even worse >_O I'm actually moving on to get this armor for my ranger, and I'm hoping the coat movement as you run is realistic like the way guild capes sway.

 * Well the more I look at it, the more I feel like I might want to get it...It's sucking me in, despite the hideousness! -_- Arshay Duskbrow 20:29, 5 November 2006 (CST)


 * lol I love this armor, got it for my ranger. I don't see whats so horrible about it, except the coat is abit squarish like the old druids coats. Other than that, the main 2 things I like about it is the textures arn't horribly smeared-lookin like most ranger armor, and they finally did somethin besides the typical ranger-nature-look thing. On a random note, I still say Zho (canthan ranger chic hench) has the best armor out of ALL ranger armor >_O I really hate how npcs get the better looks sometimes.


 * I beg to differ. You should check out Canthan 15k, which is what I currently wear. It's gorgeous, businesslike (no skin showing), not nature-y (I love being a ranger, but I'm not into the whole "organic" look), and symmetrical, for the most part. Definitely my favorite Ranger armor. But I think I'll get this, just for something different...it certainly is unique, I guess... Arshay Duskbrow 02:11, 6 November 2006 (CST)


 * I didn't really dig the bug carapaces on the armor at first, but it's really growing on me, especially since it looks pretty good as a armor vs. lightning/fire set. And I love the overcoat, which I felt should have been on the 15k female druids, instead of the whore outfit.  A quick note: dying the gloves makes no visible difference from what I can tell.  I'll make a note of it in the article.


 * Thanx, I didn't notice that, i found the silver so hidious i dyed it straight back to grey lol. I downsized the pics a bit (they were too big lol) and found a nice male ranger to pose for the male pics (altho this didn't help for the icons and mask details) at least it's something. Plus i asked, the male version doesn't show any dye either so i changed the cust. to a general notice. Gaia Iberia 11:14, 6 November 2006 (CST)

I finally got this, and I'm happy to say I ended up really liking it. As you say Gaia, it looks best simply grey, it's a good match with the rich brown of the coat. It's definitely a new look for Arshay...I think of this set as her "battle suit" (Stalwart Insignas, for the moment at least), wheras my Canthan 15k is Druid's. I'll keep my Canthan of course, I still love it, but I'm definitely pleased with this as well. A happy end! ^_^ Arshay Duskbrow 07:01, 1 December 2006 (CST)
