I got myself settled in today, put my nose to the grindstone (get it?) and finally, after a little over three years playing Guild Wars, I have finally gotten my first-ever set of Elite Armor for one of my characters!
The elite sets from Eye of the North appear to cost only 10k gold per piece (plus materials) rather than the 15k gold each that the elite armors from the three campaigns cost, but they didn’t have reputation requirements, so I definitely feel I’ve worked off the extra 5k. And then some.
I haven’t done this much blatant grinding since I was gung-ho to get the PvP mount for my hunter in WoW before one of the patches close to the TBC launch raised the prices quite a bit. I am downright exhausted from putting this much time into repeatedly clearing zones that give Asuran reputation bounties. But, I’m finished (for now) so turn down the lights, crank up the music, and invite the gals from Sex & the City, here’s a little Monk fashion show!
First, Benjeth appears for the final time in his original Sacred armor, crafted by Seifred in Droknar’s Forge!
Next, Benjeth appears in undyed Asuran armor, crafted by Klub in Rata Sum!
Finally, we decided to spice things up and give Benjeth a look all his own!
There are a couple other elite armor sets I’m interested in obtaining for Benjeth, not to mention my alts. But for now… I’m setting my sights on getting Benjeth through the final dungeon in Eye of the North!
