I'm not a huge fan of the legs or the mask. I like the top half of the character in the picture with the bookshelf.

Thank you. Yeah, too bad there aren't any leggings in the game that look more like the skirt. I'm not 100% happy with my dyes right now, but the profane leggings are difficult to dye a dark colour, so this is the best dye combo I have currently. I'm always swapping dyes so If i come up with something different ill definitely post a picture. I think i will add the link, and maybe even a picture of the armor too.

I also wanted some shoulder that sat more like the shoulder pieces on the gw2 set, but nothin to work with, yet. Perhaps more options will open up with HoT armors. (fingers crossed)

Texture are going to be different when armor mixing, it's just not avoidable. I wish i had more dye options but profane pants are very limited. All dyes on them are look sun bleached so I'm stuck using shadow dyes to compensate for the colour change. It's easy to look creative, more difficult to achieve a cohesive look with a clear vision. Everyone's entitled to their opinions, right or wrong so to that i say, to each their own! It's unfortunate you haven't posted any looks as I'm unable to determine your aesthetic. Thanks for your comment :)

I appreciate the direction here. The colors suit the look, and it gives the GW1 inspiration an edgier look.

It's mostly cohesive without being too matchy-matchy, which is good IMO. Adventurers and heroes need not be a total match.

The only real criticism I have is that overall it's very bottom-heavy. I personally feel the legs could do with a softer look, as it takes a lot of attention from the upper body which looks so well put-together.

I can see that, Maybe when HoT comes out there'll be a piece that will suit the look better than the pants I'm currently using. I hope we get a bunch of new sets to work with, I've been through most of what's available for light armor.

I really like how you were able to work well with what you had. I really do wish there was a skirt that better matched the Primeval leggings, but sadly Guild Wars 2 doesn't have much to offer for it. Still, I really like how you were able to match the colors the Profane leggings with the rest of the armor. I know I've never been able to make use of it because of those limitations. Gold for creativity and for being able to work wonders with armor pieces I couldn't!
