A friend challenged me to make a chicken headgear (Zephyrite Helm) based outfit when it came out. I added another layer to that challenge, make the ascended armor look halfway decent while being recognizable. Anyway, that's another look I hope to submit in the future. If for some reason you want a look-see link is here: http://i.imgur.com/gjhs4ji.jpg

I changed from that look to this one and was able to finalize the plan for this look when the Chronomancer came out. The challenges for this look were:
-Use the Zephyrite Helm and the Chronomancer's Epaulets
-Try to stick to a Valkyrie theme
-Add 'time' elements

Weaponsets:

For scepter, I absolutely want the Privateer Scepter even if it doesn't match the theme! LOL The Metrologicus might work, but that's a Legendary item so...

For shield, The Flameseeker Prophecies looks amazing with this set (but alas another Legendary item!). The Calcite Antique Bastion wouldn't be a bad alternative.

For torch, I am currently trying to get the Shimmering Torch.

I would also like to have the Aetherized Pistol, but looking into the Shimmering Pistol as an alternative.

Help wanted:
Help is still needed and would be greatly appreciated! Need ideas on how to show off the look. I'm hopeless when it comes to screenshots so for now I still only have scrub Character Selection screenshots.

Areas of Improvement:
Still trying to complete a weapon set for this look.

interesting look an while I am even on board with the helmet I kinda dislike the top for this outfit, it looks kinda skimpy while the rest feels more armoured
I would try to go for a more clothed coat here
Other than that I like the dye sheme and the attempt to make smth unqiue with that helmet and shoulders!

Thank you!

Also, thanks for reminding me about aspects of this look I need to improve on! I have tried several tops for a faux heavy armor look. IIRC the problem I was encountering was clipping and that most I've tried feels too 'noisy' for me. The waist of the Zodiac leggings has too much detail to transition 'nicely' with some of the tops currently available. So now I'm telling myself this is a 'light armored' Valkyrie.
