But it's very possible I'm just missing the other two. So, if there are 5 of them, that'd make even more sense. There's only 2 of the gods' faces, Grenth and Dwayna, sadly. Would've been even awesome if they added all 6 of the gods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I realized this morning that the third face I thought I saw was just a blur between the two faces that happened to look vaguely humanoid-shaped. It's still a neat effect, even if we only get two of the gods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still a neat effect, even if we only get two of the gods. Yeah, I didn't even see the effect until I read your comment and someone else's in this thread. I was like ''_ooohhh... a wind effect, that's cool.._'' but then after I read here I re-logged in and spinned around and around and saw Grenth and Dwayna's faces, :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayakaru.6583 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 While these are probably the final in the dervish' coffin, I'm satisfied with their looks. This way i can play an ele and at least pretend they're a dervish ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alga.6498 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 It seems like there's actually 5 of the human gods after all. https://imgur.com/YF6yN7J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick.6975 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I love the outfit, though my favorite feature is the hood. I'd totally buy again it as its own standalone armor piece if it got released, like Braham's Pauldrons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Every single melee Hammer spec is awful, whereas Daredevil/Staff (in the pic above) and Revenant/Staff ("hitting stick" staff modes(1)) aren't. (1) All other Staff users use them as over-sized magic wands, while Daredevil is the definitive melee "hit me with your rhythm stick" kind of staff user, and Revenant does at least use it to hit people.

I hate both daredevil and revenant staff animations, together with pathetic bug with daredevil hitting with scythe staves backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samnang.1879 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 love this outfit, i love the detail of the fabric on the hood... i wish more armours were detailed like this one... and the dyes make it looks so much cooler. was in raid tonight, and 3 of us were twinning with this outfit :D ![](https://i.imgur.com/RC8xQvc.jpg"") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manpag.6421 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I love it on my Rev. Now just hoping we'll one day get a Ritualist-themed outfit... Perhaps if we ever return to Cantha in GW2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashantara.8731 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 > @"Firebird Gomer.9563" said: > They could have put the skin on a Hammer not a staff Well, to be fair, there _are_ professions that use it as a martial weapon and not as a magic casting tool. ;) Like the Thief, that makes most sense to be "disguised" as a Dervish.

You are aware that the argument was already made about the scarab skeleton part of the outfit? It stretches in an awful manner when in combat pose. In GW1 it was seperated from the rest of the armor and thus did not stretch in that awkward way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Cause bone carcasses that stretch by 200+ % like rubber were a thing in the Dervishes' last days that hadn't been 250 years prior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dami.5046 Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Yeah I got it. The skin is on my ele and I used the sun scythe I had drop as a skin on her staff. However it's a shame it classed as a staff when it was a melee weapon in the first game. Still would of loved the vabbi skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got it asap. > No one is gonna point out that the bones are literally stuck and are stretching with the cloths of this outfit while moving instead of acting independently like they actually did on the original armor in GW1? > Not only does it look awful in comparison, it looks unnatural and weird. Nostalgia is fun, but they butchered it with this one. When they're doing the boring choice of making it an outfit instead of actual armor skins, they could at least pay attention to the details when porting over skins like this. I gave up on that dream long ago, I judge them by their standards today and sadly this is good for what they do. x.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
