Best-looking item sets?

ambassadormolariambassadormolari Member Posts: 709 Arc User
As the title above asks, what do you, personally, think are the best-looking ground and space sets? Opinions, of course, will vary.

My faves are as follows:

Space
It has to be the Aegis set, with its nice blue outlines, gridded light effect on the deflector, and that interesting ringed warp trail. The Maco set comes a close second, and I really like the warp trail of the Breen set. Beyond that, with most other item sets, it really comes down to colour preference, I think.

Ground
Maco/Adapted Maco all the way, though I also like the Tron-esque look of the Counter-Command set. The Dyson set is okay, but at the same time it just feels too "alien," if that makes sense. It looks like the sort of suit that would be right at home on bulkier species, but looks awkward on most average-sized humanoids.

    I like the Dyson rep space set look. Very clean.

    I'm also fond of the Breen set on some ships.

    And the borg set looks amazing on either of the adapted ships.

    Dyson space set looks amazing on KDF fleet ships with that greenish gold hull material. It's also a really good shield.

    Loving the Dyson visuals myself. I also really, really like the Nukara space visuals, but that one is a bit tricky. It looks super awesome on some ships but really bad on others.

    No real preference on ground visuals. I have too many set costumes that I swap between depending on my mood lol.

    Even though it doesn't do anything for me, nor have many uses with my builds, I think the Nukara Set looks the best.

    I'd also vote the MACO set on ground.

    I'd like to toss in the "Reman" set. The dark turquoise is rather unique

    I love the Aegis, i think it is maybe the most beautiful one. The maco shields are, really awful most of the times. Some parts of the Nukara and Dyson sets are beautiful, others arent. I dont consider the maco set "beautiful". It fits nice in a lot of ships, but the asimilated maco set is not "beautiful".

    I think the only set that has all beautiful components is the Aegis.

    The Jem Hadar set looks awesome in some ships as well, but in others it looks like TRIBBLE, lol.

    The only item of the Breen Set we could consider beautiful is the engines, everything else.. bleh.

    Aegis is good on all kdf ships; not so much with feds, since the blue glow really doesn't stand out well with the lighter fed skins, and doesn't have much pizazz by itself, even with darker rom skins.

    Reman shields are good on most all ships.

    Jem Hadar set is good on most ships, but better on ones with more glow, and fed ships in general. On some ships it hardly makes a difference, which is sad.

    Dyson is probably the best. That color scheme just works, and some ships I never considered before I want just because of the Dyson set. For example, the Monbosh is pretty boring, but it looks like pure space sex with the Dyson shields.

    I like the borg deflector & engines with the reman shield. It makes your ship look very sinister.

    Ground sets, Omega, and the new Undine set.

    Space is also a toss up between Aegis, Reman, and Maco sets.

    This is why ships need costume slots...


    Of course I would also like entire ship costumes so you can fly what you want and look the way you want...something better than those lame ship holoemitters.


    Before the PvPers scream...all costumes would be disabled in PvP zones.

    not really a set but the Mobius with the Aeon hull material is probably the best looking ship I have seen..

    Yep, definitely a sweet combo.

    You have the complete set too?

    They're not a set, but IMO nothing looks better on a Federation character than an Odyssey uniform and elite fleet phaser pistol.

    Nukara set is IMO the best:
    1
    2
    3
    4
    5

    Followed by the Dyson set:
    1
    2
    3
    4

    This is where I'd say the Romulan endgame armor set looks best.

    IF WE HAD ONE.

    For me the best looking sets still remain the MACO space set and the OMEGA (harverster) ground set.

    A KHG dread is still one of my favorite looks:
