Hello!

I've become bored with the previous look of my guardian and I decided to change it. After hours of browsing the wardrobe and looking for inspiration on this site, an idea came to my mind. Tons of gold later, which I spent on gems, dyes, etc, I created The Blue Guardian 2. The Outfit is composed of: T3 Chest and Pants, Phalanx Gloves and Shoulders, and Kodan Boots. Ad Infinitum wraps up the whole look, in my opinion. The blue theme fits guardian, and gives him more divine or holy aura.

Tarr The Unbent is a battle-hardened guardian with many years of field experience. He is "Light in the Darkness" for he can overcome any obstacle either with his wisdom or his blade. As for weapons, Tarr wields a greatsword named Cobalt when he is alone. When the enemies are out of his reach, Tarr uses his ghost-imbued longbow to hunt them down. When he is with his comrades, Tarr grabs a shield, given to him by Glint and a sword, which he found while travelling the mists.

While this might not be the most original look ever (cultural T3 is simply a little overused), I do like the full package you delivered
The dye scheme is nice and I appreciate how well you matched all these different weapon skins and the legendary backpiece
My advise would be to simply use other legs or another chestpiece, that would already greatly improve the originality of this look
Also nice to see so many screens, nice overall upload ^^

Thank you, Elessar. I suspected that using T3 items might have negative impact on the grade, but it was hard to find other skins with subtle ornamentation matching with those of gloves and shoulders. As for pants, I considered using Ornate Guild elements, unfortunately they are out of my reach at the moment. Non 'skirt' pants make me look very slim, but this is because of my character's body type. Once again, thanks for comment :)

It's nice to see some improvements over your first upload, the dyes are most definitely better, the armor mix is improved somewhat but I feel that those cultural T3 bits are keeping you away from greatness, I can see how Ornate Guild Tassets could work with Paws of Coda. Nonetheless I like it how the weapons ,dyes and backpack work together , it really looks consistent.
The screenshots are alright, you did plenty of them in different locations but I feel you still got plenty of room to improve them, which ofc comes with practice.
Overall a very good job , but the lacks in originality keeps it away from greatness. So Silver it is for now. :)

Thanks, Garrius :) I'll definitely work on this look further once I'm able to get some new things (started gathering mats and money to make Azureflame). Also I'm planning to get some shiny mask for my face, probably blue one :)
