Ranger green, it's had a little bad press here and there, the kind of thing that makes us Brits want to stand up for it!

It works remarkably well as a green with flat leather colours, compared to the richer greens on offer. As such I put this together based on how the green compliments the leather in the chest piece.



Pieces (all ranger green)

Chest: Ornate Surcoat of the Dunland Swordsman
Back: Thin Cloak of Salvation
Head: Scarred Helm of the Pren Gwydh
Shoulders: Engraved Iron Pauldrons
Arms: Burnished Gauntlets of the Dunland Warlord
Feet: Threadbare Shoes of Dunland


Inspired by Hymne's fabulous ladieswear, I spun through the dyes looking for one to complement the cream in the Elegant Formal Dress. Then when I span through my cloaks I saw Tarchol's fringing complemented the cream in the dress really nicely. Topped off with my preferred store hat the Fancy Plumed Hat (due to the feathers not looking like a huge creamy lump!)

All dyed Sea Blue:
Dress: Elegant Formal Dress
Head: Fancy Plumed Hat
Back: Tarchol

With great burglary comes great cosmetics.


This is my "formal" armour. It's mostly for raids and when I'm stabbing my way through something but might run into someone I want to impress.


This is more for when I have to get my hands a little dirty and don't want to get caught. It's not too flashy and highly practical. It's not quite finished yet. When Yule fest rolls around again I'm going to get some fingerless gloves. Then it'll be done.


My hunter prefers simpler lines for ease of movement.

This is what my Champion is currently sporting:

I'll have to come back and edit so I can tell you the pieces, they're mostly from the Dunland area, the helmet was a quest reward. I hope the link works, I just signed up for flickr.

The armor is a combination dye of crimson and basic red.

Love your outfit! Indeed a courageous use of Ranger Green, and it worked very well!

Whats that top? I have looking for a top like that. Thanks.

Whats that top? I have looking for a top like that. Thanks.

Should be avaible from lower level light armour vendors, around lvl 20 or so?

[Elenluin-Menelloth]

Whats that top? I have looking for a top like that. Thanks.

That would be the padded vest for 20, 23, 26 and 29 purchased from light armour vendors. Check in Esteldin, the screenshots from there too.

Lovely outfit with that goat Evu and thank you for the compliment on my pic! By the way, out of curiosity, how do you get screenshots where you get a full body shot, but quality is good and can scroll close enough without going into first person? I'd love to know that little secret.

it's just a combination of playing with camera angle and details, i use following setup for screenshots (important things):
overall graphics: ultra high
antialiasing: 8x
texture detail: very high
resolution: 1440x900 (but i tried even 800x600 and was able to do it)

i set angle of the camera to be looking at the character directly from the front (so that the floor is almost horizontal, but not 100%) and start taking the screenshot, rotating the character mostly with keyboard. anyway, that might be a good topic for my video guide series!

I love that outfit, simple and classy. Very well done!

On another note, I wish the Mini Watcher shoulders were available for other classes as well, or as a cosmetic. They are my favourite shoulders in the game, but unless you have a raiding Mini (or rather had, when people were running the Watcher raid), there is no chance to get them... *sniff*

You can always get the ettenmoors version, if you're up for grinding the barter-stones, or spend alot of gold on it! That's what I did before I got the watcher-shoulders

[Kheld_GB]

Gotta love cosmetics!

[SerendipityUK]

Go ranger green, go!!

Loving the outfits Kheld.

On the subject of mini shoulders from the poster above, it can be frustrating not to get class pieces, heck, I've got a mini that ran twins quite a few times but never got the helm and I LOVE that helm.
