Most visually appealing items

Setting aside any performance metrics, what items are your favorites based on the pure awesomeness of their appearance?

For me,

Swordback Hold and

Soul Harvest take the two top spots.

Leviathan ftw! at least 4 a barb...
sigon's shield is also pretty dope

Tyrael's Might

I love how vamp gaze looks in the old graphics.

Lidless Wall,

Kuko Shakaku, and

The Grandfather

The Gavel Of Pain
Exceptional Unique

Martel de Fer

Arkaine’s valor! Looks great on the character selection screen

Easy. for weapon its gotta be

Bonesnap
For armor sigons full Steel
XD

There was a fashion show thread i meant to add to, but life got in the way (as it always does): forums/d2r-fashion-show-display-unique- ... 07642.html

To me, the most classic and best looking item in Diablo will always be

Silks of the Victor. This armor style is the best, and I have fond memories of attempting to trade for and eventually obtaining it.

Definitely

Doombringer, my profile icon. I also like the

War Scepter and

Spear designs a lot

A simple

War Pike on a barb just looks so dope to me.

Halberds (and next versions - polearms in general are nice) and flails are stylish, I think.

Of course the green rubber swimming cap. After all, all my characters wear it...
/s

More seriously,

Giant Axe (and exceptional/elite versions) - a two-handed axe, an iconic weapon for a barbarian - which no barbarian uses. Outclassed by the monopoly of Berserker Axes, which IMO look like too large throwing axes.
I also like

Grim Wand and

Skull Collector/

Mang Song's Lesson. Every self-respecting necromancer should have a weapon made of or at least decorated with a skull, not just a stick.

On the same range, I love my good ol'

Boneshade ! And grim shields too.

Flails!

I forgot my Honorable Mention:

Infernal Cranium because my Necro wearing light armor and that thing looks like a grizzled veteran biker.

I like great helms on most characters. I’m just going to say the obvious, barbs are the coolest looking character. Particularly with gface, and thorny armor. I usually go with

Great Hauberk Enigma for the look and lightness though it leaves his lower body looking like it’s in a kilt. If I could, I’d probably throw Grief into flails instead of the tacky looking phase blades I always end up using for the practicality of not having to repair every 20 minutes.

Druid also has some great looks with big axes, but then that’s all nullified when going furry. Dog mode is funny but def not cool.

I also like the armor types of sorcs that leaves the long flap on the front. I think studded armor was my fav. Reminds me of I Dream of Jennie, an incredibly powerful sorceress from what I recall. Unfortunately, I don’t like the look of viper magi, which most my sorcs end up using. It’s cliche now, but they look freakin rad with scythes. Makes me sad bc I needed Infinity so bad yesterday that I conceded to using a

Trident which is cool especially with electric theme, but her posture when moving is not nearly as rad as her nonchalant stroll and haymaker casts with the

Scythe. Oh well, it rolled okay.
