Armor All vs Other Car Care Brands: Which One is Right for You?

When it comes to keeping your car looking its best, there are a lot of options out there. From waxes and polishes to interior cleaners, the world of car care can be overwhelming. One brand that has been a staple in the industry for decades is Armor All. But how does it stack up against other car care brands? And which one is right for you?

What is Armor All?

Armor All was founded in 1962 and has since become one of the most recognizable names in car care. The brand offers a wide range of products, including protectants, cleaners, and accessories. Their products are designed to keep your car looking like new by protecting it from UV rays, dirt, and other harmful elements.

How Does Armor All Compare to Other Brands?

One of the biggest advantages that Armor All has over other brands is its reputation. With over 50 years in the industry, they have proven themselves as a reliable and trustworthy brand. In addition to their reputation, Armor All products are also known for their effectiveness. Their protectants can help prevent fading and cracking on interior surfaces while their cleaners can remove tough stains.

However, there are some downsides to using Armor All products. Some people find that their protectants leave a greasy residue on surfaces or have a strong chemical smell. Additionally, some users have reported that their cleaners aren’t as effective as other brands when it comes to removing certain types of stains.

Other Car Care Brands to Consider

While Armor All is a great option for many people, there are other car care brands that may be better suited for your needs. Meguiar’s is another well-known brand that offers high-quality products at an affordable price point. Their Ultimate Wash & Wax product has received rave reviews for its ability to clean and shine in one step. Another option is Chemical Guys, a brand that offers a wide range of products for both interior and exterior car care. Their Leather Cleaner and Conditioner has been praised for its ability to restore old leather seats to like-new condition.

Which Brand is Right for You?

Ultimately, the brand that is right for you will depend on your individual needs and preferences. If you’re looking for a reliable brand with a long-standing reputation, Armor All may be the way to go. But if you’re looking for a specific product or have had issues with Armor All products in the past, it may be worth exploring other brands like Meguiar’s or Chemical Guys.

In conclusion, when it comes to choosing a car care brand, it’s important to do your research and consider your options carefully. Whether you decide on Armor All or another brand, taking care of your car with high-quality products can help keep it looking great for years to come.

Question about mistward set...

By ancafr.9274 August 12, 2019 in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Do I have to be Revenant to unlock the mistward set or can it be unlocked by any other level 80 class?

Here you go: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Mistward_armor#Acquisition

Tommo Chocolate.5870

You need to have a Revenant, since the collection achievements for the pieces (apart from the head piece) are unlocked by training the Revenant's core specialisations. The collection items don't have to be acquired by a Revenant though - you can obtain them with any character.

So the head part is only acquired by revenant but the other parts can be obtained with any class since its a level 80? is that right?

Once you have unlocked all the requisite achievements on a Revenant, you can use other Professions to complete said achievements (unless otherwise noted in the link provided above).

@Inculpatus cedo.9234 said:Once you have unlocked all the requisite achievements on a Revenant, you can use other Professions to complete said achievements (unless otherwise noted in the link provided above).

Meaning.. has to have a revenant lv 80...

@ancafr.9274 said: @Inculpatus cedo.9234 said:Once you have unlocked all the requisite achievements on a Revenant, you can use other Professions to complete said achievements (unless otherwise noted in the link provided above).

Not necessarily - unlocking all five core specialisations requires 300 hero points, so assuming you don't train any utility skills (which would be kind of mad, but doable) you can do it by level 69 I think, or even earlier if you do hero challenges.

Yo i unlocked the leg part, now i need to level up armorsmith to craft? i also heard its some kind of achivement and gotta do some 'tasks'.. how come???. I wonder why some stuff on this game are SO FKING COMPLICATED XD.

You can just buy the crafted armor from the trading post, or choose the piece of armor with the corresponding skin as story reward when running the core story with a heavy armor character.

And "complicated" unfortunately is very hard to avoid when you try to keep a game fresh and interesting to people for seven years.

But even after I unlock there are some kind of 'acquiring' list of gears that I need to buy/craft before get the skin? is this right? and about this '' unfortunately is very hard to avoid when you try to keep a game fresh and interesting to people for seven years. '' Man the game has a HUGE content to keep many lifeless nerds without social life for many hours, months, years in front of the pc they dont need to add anything more complicated than already is now. Me and many other players probably will not do/play at least 30% of the content the game offer, in my opinion there is no need that lot complication because most people doesnt have free time to spare nowadays.

Things has changed and nowdays people dont want or dont have plenty hours/days to spend playing anymore, if were like 10-20 years ago that people used to have much more hours to spend I would agree with you. They want simplicity and not complication, I'm 40 years old and i play since i was around 8-10. The more simple the game is the better. I play the game for around 2 years and I don´t know at least 50% xD.

Once you've unlocked each collection by training the Revenant specialisations, then you need to collect the items for the each collection achievement. The achievements tab in the hero panel tells you what you need to collect - if you type 'mistward' into the search box all the collections for the armour pieces will come up. Each achievement (except the headwrap, which is a bit different) requires you to unlock four armour skins - which you can either get from crafting or the trading post - and three other items. For the other items, if you put your mouse over thire icons, it will tell you how to get them. For the headwrap, the difference is that the armour skins you need to unlock are the ones for the other Mistward pieces.

I'm in a similar position to you, but some people have loads of time to play, and complain on these forums that the game doesn't have enough content/doesn't get content updates frequently enough for them. I'm not sure if it's true that people in general have less time to play games than they used to, although I see no reason why that would be the case. At least the achievements for the Mistward armour are actually explained properly in the game - there are some achievements where I don't know how anyone can do them without a guide.

I found this set relatively easy to get, to be honest. MUCH easier than many others, and certainly cheaper. Try the luminescent one, if you want a challenge. Or Requiem.

That said, I enjoy the many differences in choices--you can just buy quite a few sets from the tp or karma vendors with no fuss at all, then there are the middling difficult/spendy ones such as the dungeon sets, cultural sets, or Mistward, and then there are some with ramped up difficulty as in the raid armor, higher pvp/wvw sets, with some sets falling inbetween these levels, as the luminescent is. Honestly, I will probably have 2 sets of legendary before I get the luminescent set, but at least none of it is required, it's all optional.

The game has 9 different classes with many different skills, builds, achievement etc etc, it is IMPOSSIBLE for a player says ''I beat the Guild Wars 2''. By beat I mean to do everything on every single class and achievement, and that includes 100% map and elite specs with every single class as well. If somebody says they do have or even say that the game doesnt have enough content its a lie and they probably want some attention.

Abilities [ edit ]

Profession mechanic [ edit ]

Revenants can channel the Mists to invoke the powers of certain legendary figures of the past.

Energy [ edit ]

Revenants use a resource called energy , which regenerates over time. Activating skills uses energy, some even cause energy degeneration while active, making energy management critical for gameplay.

Legends [ edit ]

The revenant can have two legendary stances equipped, and of these only one can be active at any given time. As well as weapon swapping they can swap between channeling two legends. Channeling replaces the last five skill slots on the skill bar, depending on the current legend: the healing skill , three utility skills , and the elite skill . Revenant traits tend to synergize with the skill set, similar to a skill type. [3]

When channeling a legend, the interface changes slightly to reflect the legend channeled. For instance, when channeling Jalis, ice spikes are seen behind the utility skills, while when channeling Ventari, yellow leaves can be seen.

Skills [ edit ]

Skill types [ edit ].

Due to the unique nature of the Revenant's mechanics, Revenant skills are classified according to their Legend. Thus, each Legend is also a unique skill type. See the above Legends section for more details.

This mechanic also results in Revenants not having access to Common and Racial Skills .

Specializations [ edit ]

Revenants have five core specializations, and three elite specializations:

Personal story [ edit ]

In the biography step of character creation , revenants must decide which blindfold they wear to shut out their physical world interaction. This choice is merely cosmetic and determines their starting head armor, which can be hidden or transmuted after character creation.

Lore [ edit ]

Revenant is by far the newest profession in Tyria , having been introduced to the world by Rytlock Brimstone in 1328 AE , who in turn learned it from Glint while searching the Mists for the lost sword Sohothin . [4] Revenants are soldiers who have learned to commune with the Mists, a magical protoreality that makes up the fabric of space and time. The Mists remember what came before, and echoes of those who left an especially powerful imprint on the world of Tyria can still be found there—revenants call upon these legendary historical figures, [5] both heroic and villainous, bringing them into action to enhance the revenant's own abilities and power. As the legends invoked by revenants are not the actual persons, but rather Mist-echoes of them, the legends don’t necessarily have the full range of memories, knowledge & thoughts as the original person, [6] but they are still sentient, with opinions and personalities of their own. [5] As echoes, the invoked legends are often of a deceased person, but invoking a person who is still alive is not unheard of either. [7] Not every legend is thrilled about being invoked, such as Mallyx, who is offended at having his immense power being borrowed by upstart mortals. [5] Much like the Canthan ritualists , revenants often blindfold themselves to aid their focus in communing with the legends, who are able to perceive the world through their own senses. [5] [8]

Notes [ edit ]

• Revenants cannot use racial skills .
• Revenants were originally unable to weapon swap , like elementalists and engineers ; however this was changed following player feedback. [11]
• Before the May 8th, 2018 patch, Revenants could only use spears underwater despite having two underwater weapon slots. They similarly only had two Legends usable underwater: Assassin and Demon. With the May 8th patch, they can use tridents and the Legendary Dwarf Stance underwater.
• As of the August 8th, 2017 patch, you can have idle conversations with the channeled legends. See each legend's individual page for dialogue.

Trivia [ edit ]

• During development, revenants were named "reckoners". [12]
• In folklore, a revenant is someone who returns from a long absence, often from death or in a supernatural way.
• A few elements of the revenant's unique mechanics stem from Guild Wars mechanics, such as energy and upkeep .
• Revenant shares many similarities with the Guild Wars Factions profession Ritualist , including the use of blindfolds and similarity of their profession symbol.
• The Revenant's icon resembles a "third eye", and symbolizes enlightenment. [13]
• Revenants and engineers are the only base professions without access to signets . However, Herald Facets expand upon the concept, featuring similar passive ( upkeep ) and active (consume) interactions, as well as having very similar skill icon artwork. In that way, herald can be considered a 5-signet Revenant.
• Every Revenant's legend has at least one skill which has an upkeep.
• During The Hero of Istan story instance, Revenants can channel the Legendary Prisoner Palawa Joko .
• In the revenant concept art, the revenant wears the Mistward armor .

Second set of Mistward armor?

in Revenant

Posted by: Nelg .3795

I selected stats for my Mistward armor I now regret. Can I just make a new revenant and acquire a second set of armor for it?

The armor pieces are granted through achievements, which are account-bound. So no, creating another Rev won’t give you another set.

Just get yourself a set of exotic armor through normal means and use the wardrobe to change the skin to Mistward.

So where do you pick this set up guys? What quests etc do I need to do as a Rev? I’m only lvl27 soooo…. :/

It’s through collection sets. You unlock one collection for each complete Revenant trait line you train. Once you complete the collection, you get one piece of Mistward armor per collection.

The last collection requires the previous 5.

2015-12-08 09:20:17 UTC

Ok, so when I have completed all of Devastation say, and spent all the hero points, does that then give me a piece of armour, or do i have to wait until I’ve unlocked all 6?

2015-12-08 12:46:17 UTC

Posted by: Andy .9137

you unlock one of the collections by completing one of the trait lines, the collection achievement itself has other stuff you need to do/collect before you get an armor piece.

Guild Wars 2: How To Build A Revenant With High Damage

Here's a plan for making a super strong Revenant that dishes out a ton of damage.

Quick Links

Specializations, weapons and armour, consumables.

The Revenant class was added during Guild Wars 2 's first expansion: Heart of Thorns. Since then, it's become a fan-favourite among experienced players. It's a complicated class, so only players who are already familiar with the game have been able to take it on. If you're new to this MMORPG, it might be wise to try out another class, first. RELATED: Guild Wars 2: How To Build An Overpowered Elementalist With Max Damage This build is focused on inflicting DPS through conditions. It's considered one of the best builds in the game right now and is crucial for lots of teams. You'll need some practice to learn it — since the Revenant class has a huge range of abilities — but it'll be invaluable once you've got the hang of it.While it's ideal for...

... it's easily adapted to be a survivable build in the Open World.

Note: The build detailed in this guide is based on the meta of Guild Wars 2 at the time the guide was written.

This build uses the Renegade specialization, which is a unique set of abilities only available to players who own the Path of Fire expansion.

Choose these specializations:

RELATED: Guild Wars 2: How To Earn The Skyscale Mount​ ​​​​​​

Revenants get a different set of skills for each weapon set. Choose the following skills:

The ideal equipment for Raids, Fractals, Dungeons, and Strikes is a full set of Viper gear: that means it will focus on +Power and +Condition Damage, while also providing some +Expertise and +Precision. All of your armour pieces and accessories can have Viper stats.

Viper gear will also serve you well in the Open World, but in the Open World you could also use gear with all:

• Celestial stats (even spread across +Power, +Precision, +Toughness, +Vitality, +Ferocity, +Healing, +Condition Damage, +Concentration, and +Expertise), which will give you a little more defensibility while maintaining high DPS
• Trailblazer stats (focus on +Toughness and +Condition Damage, with a little boost to +Vitality and +Expertise), which provides much more defence while sacrificing a significant amount of your damage output

You should also equip a full set of Superior Runes of the Nightmare, since they provide an incredible boost to your Condition Damage.

These are a bit hard to come by, though, so in the meantime and for playing in the Open World, you could also consider:

• Superior Runes of the Elementalist (not quite as good as the Nightmare Runes, but still great DPS)
• Superior Runes of Durability (more defense if you find you're dying a lot)
• Superior Runes of the Tempest (these can be used if you've decided to equip Celestial armour)

In your first weapon slots, equip a shortbow. In your second weapon slots, equip a mace in the main hand and an axe in the off-hand. The weapons should have the same stats as whatever armour you're using.

As far as Sigils go, you'll want to use a Sigil of Bursting and a Sigil of Earth on both weapons. This Sigil set works when you're using the Viper gear or the Celestial gear. If you're using the Trailblazer gear, use a Sigil of Malice instead of a Sigil of Earth. You may choose to change out one of the two sigils for a Superior Sigil of Draining because it is so good at interrupting your enemies. However, it's not effective when the enemy has a defiance bar. Or, you could equip the Sigils of Energy or Sigils of Cleansing, which add extra defence.

RELATED: Guild Wars 2: A Beginner's Guide To Crafting

The very best consumables for this class build are:

• Rare Veggie Pizza
• Red-Lentil Saobosa
• Plate of Beef Rendang
• Toxic Focusing Crystal

However, some of these can be tough and/or expensive to acquire. Any Guild Wars 2 player will tell you that some food is better than none, though! Check out this list for cheaper/easier to find alternatives:

• Tuning Icicle (+Condition Damage)
• Potent Master Tuning Crystal (+Condition Damage)
• Bowl of Fly Soup (+Expertise, +Condition Damage)
• Seared Beef Steak (+Condition Damage)
• Petri Dish Delight (+Expertise)
