Wintersday, Titles and Armour

Not really played for the last few weeks. I pop in most days to check prices of ectos, with the intention of buying ranger Obsidian armour one day, but otherwise I haven't felt like playing for a while. No-one to play with really. I still have a few targets and completed one of them last time I actually played - Canthan Grandmaster Cartographer title on my Ritualist, so I'll have a go at one or two of those next time I get the 'GW bug'.

I discovered this morning that this Wintersday will see the return of candy canes. How annoying to have only recently 'binned' a load of candy cane shards! Grrr! If I hadn't, then I imagine I would have found myself playing this weekend. I might anyway. Another couple of disgusting festival hats for the collection: gotta be done! lol! To be fair, I like a few of them a lot, just some are gross.

Most of my characters have different armour than in my title picture. I'll make a new one when my ranger gets her FoW armour... (when hell freezes over :/ ) My Necro, Warrior and Paragon have the same armour, and I like those as much as anything else I've seen, so no immediate plans to change. I did see a para. skirt that could be dyed, which is different (for para's); but it doesn't look anywhere near as nice on wiki as the Asuran (which looks similar in shape to the Elonian my para wears now, which I like), so I might go for that one day.. ^..^ I have seen other necro and warrior armours that I've thought were nice. The Warrior 'Silver Eagle' looks nice, and I like the chunky look of the Primeval Boots. The Deldrimor is quite nice, but I prefer the Templar, which my warrior has bits of. Speaking of Deldrimor, I think the monk Deldrimor armour is gorgeous.. might have to get that one too at some point, as well as the Elite Sunspear my monkie has... hehe.

Still enjoying it

Well, I had a few months off GW but went back a couple of months ago, after I bought some more RAM off ebay. Now my graphics card is on it's way out :(

I still love GW. A couple of my chars. have finished GWEN; and a couple of others have finished Nightfall. I've tried a bit of 'Shadow Raptor' farming with my ele. - finished the game with her just so that I could try it out in Hard Mode. It's a handy build to have ready for when Anet do their weekend events where goodies drop - birthday cake, chocolate bunnies, or other helpful items. Not that I do that, but of course I always decide I want to when I can't, so now at least I can if I fancy it! Hehe.

After so long not really liking most elite armours enough to actually want to buy them, I suddenly decided I wanted four sets!: Ancient for my Ritualist and Mesmer, Kurzick for my 'sin, and Ancient upper/Vabbian skirt for my Dervish! Most of my characters have elite armour of some sort or other now, but because those were the armours that I liked, not because they're elite. My warrior still has non-elite armour and I don't plan on changing it any time soon, since I love her look: Krytan skirt, Glad. upper, Krytan/Templar boots depending on the build. Hmm.. I could have sworn the 'Templar' ones I just looked up on wiki were called 'knights'... meh.

Anyway, that'll do for now. Just thought it's been too long not to have posted!
