Would have been cool if it granted immunity to blindness :P --81.215.13.145 07:56, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

It would make more sense if it gave you permanent Blindness.

Yeah, same thing with Ritualists^^ —ZerphatalkThe Improver 19:24, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

I dunno: I like it on my ranger. don't even have to see my targets to hit them :D 22:42, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cannot be dyed

Outch :( This purple coloring does not clip well to many armors...I think this would be alot more famous if it could. —ZerphatalkThe Improver 19:23, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Agreed. Why does it have a purple tint if it can't be dyed? Image:User_Woop_sig.pngWoop ‧ talk ‧ 18:30, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
Not to mention all the other hard to acquire headgears can be dyed, in real terms it'll set you back at least 50k a blindfold, and it's a nasty purple colour. I'm hoping ArenaNet will give us dyable skins in the near future. --85.62.18.3 01:37, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
Meh, I just dye my armour a complimentary colour. Orange and purple and blue makes the base for a tasteful purple, I've found. ;) --Mme. Donelle 14:21, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
I want it with a dye! Why can't you dye it ANet? tell me plz! Mal 14:19, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
If you really want to ask Anet, you should try support instead. I doubt anyone in Anet would chance upon this page. -- ab.er.rant 14:37, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

blahhhhhh i want it to be dyable :D of we could i would dye it magenta :~--Blahishness 15:25, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

I think a blindfold should either be white (after all, it's just a bandage) and/or dyeable, I never understood why Anet did not make it dyeable. Kormir's blindfold is white, so why not this one too? Sanna 12:36, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Possible allusion to Matrix Revolutions

Neo wore an almost identical purple blindfold at the end of the Matrix series. Even the knot in the back, in game, looks very close to the one in the movie. Skallagrimson 17:39, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

I feel blindfolds is really awesomely common, and it sounds weird to be a reference to something like that. But, let's ask Emily the trivia confirmer. :) - anja talk 17:56, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
Obiously it's a reference to Kormir. Duh! :P — Galil Talk page 18:00, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
I still don't agree. Just because Kormir has a blindfold? Though, I suppose you could say the same about my theory as well.  :P Skallagrimson 20:53, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
I think that was his Socratic point. - Image:User HeWhoIsPale sig.PNG HeWhoIsPale 20:55, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
You know, having seen the number of people, myself included, who dye their armour purple to match the blindfold, I'm starting to wonder if it isn't a reference to anything so much as a conspiriacy on Gaile's part to make everyone wear purple armour. o_o --Mme. Donelle 21:20, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
Best theory yet tbh, lol - BeX iawtc 02:25, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
I'm not asking for it to be like black or white.. But atleast grey! Ty.
Yeah, I definitely back up the thought that it's a reference to the matrix. Neo's is even the same dull purple.76.114.80.153 22:06, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] RANT

I know its been said before, but I just wanna rant and say ANET Come on and let us Dye this thing!! pleaaaase, maybe if we all /beg it wil happen. lets start a protest! (i like the way Kormirs is white ><!!! wtf! lol XianDrinker

If it cant be dyed and is purple yea i think its the matix, but i hate purple it would be awsome dyed75.191.190.36 20:23, 26 February 2008 (UTC)ChanneledChaos

yall are overreacting; it's not even a bright purple that might be a problem. As is, it's too dark to even be considered 'purple'; it's more indigo or violet imo. --click moar Mafaraxas 20:57, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] ummm

can we remove the note "Does not cause the blind condition" ? i mean, C'mon folks.....would ANYONE really believe that to be true? Vanessa 15:12, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Fix'd look at it now :) http://wiki.guildwars.com/index.php?title=Blindfold&oldid=896983

[edit] Someone screwed up the Notes

Anyone know how to report that someone screwed up a part of this Wiki Page? I am pretty sure that Blindfolds don't have to do anything with how "Wiki is serious business. So is the internets"

If there's trouble with a vandal, the admin noticeboard is a good place to report. I've reverted the notes and blocked the IP now though :) - anja talk 19:39, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
The whole note on blindfolds having nothing to do with the Blind condition seems to be a little excessive.--Zakek Xek talk 17:26, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Clipping problem. :/

So i got one for my paragon, and its got a really big cliping problem. Is there any chance of it getting fixed at all? Mason717 05:41, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Blind Note

Seriously remove the stupid note about haveing nothing to do with the blind condition. No armor in the game has anything to do with any condition. That note is redundant and moronic. Sorry but annoys the crap out of me every time I visit this page. 75.136.137.198 10:19, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

be bold and remove it yourself. --click moar Mafaraxas 00:50, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
HALP MEH I'm blind! halp me....... Oh wait it's just a blind fold and nothing to do with actually being blind... omg T1Cybernetic 09:34, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] lol

EASILY the funniest history of a wikipage. EVER. KStarfire 00:54, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

lol.
Agreed, what is this "pool" thing that kept popping up, anyway? Krelus Derian 21:56, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] a helpfull gallory?

Would it be helpfully for people who might want to buy this to have a gallory of hair styles that clip with it?75.172.46.207 10:17, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

I'd love to have that! I bought for my necromancer and well, it turned out completely retarded :p

If we did a gallery, we'd need a lot of pictures, is the problem. When I got this for my mesmer and took her to the asura to change her hair so it didn't clip, I found out all but three or four female mesmer hairs do not clip with the blindfold in some way.Moonstruck Muse 16:39, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] YOU WILL NOT MANAGE TO HIDE THAT THE BLINDFOLD DECREASES BLIND CONDITION

I understand that elitist information to be kept secret, but you will not manage to fool the wiki community. This Blindfold DECREASES the duration of BLIND CONDITION! --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.193.128.163 (talk).

No, it doesn't, and the worst part of your argument is the "I can see clearly" inscription, as armor cannot be inscribed. --Freedom Bound 11:47, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
by that logic shouldn't it make it worse?--Smithy-Star File:User Smithyben sig icon.png 11:54, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
(Edit conflict) You're lucky, Smithy. I was just about to sign for you with the unsigned template. =P ~Ryuu[ Talk | Meow :3 ] 11:55, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
  • you keep trying to hide that the Blindfold decreases the Blind condition. You cannot fool the wiki community for much longer. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 85.244.26.6 (talk).

Lay off the forum trolls......seriously get a fucking life already. --Necroflare715 18:46, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Color trivia?

Just noticed the blindfold has the exact same color as Neo has in the Matrix Revolutions --Se7en 15:35, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

noone cares, gtfo — derp de derp derp a tum tee tiddly tum ta tum Maf 23:35, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
Maf will you stfu. Honestly stop taking out you're sensless anger on random forum users. It's pathetic.The preceding unsigned comment was added by 173.48.123.225 (talk • contribs) at 08:41, 10 October 2009 (UTC).
who's angry here? gww is a forum :> — derp de derp derp a tum tee tiddly tum ta tum Maf 14:59, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
Guild Wars wiki is NOT a forum. But was it really purple? Do you have a picture of that? I have the trilogy and saw it countless times and remember it as a dirty piece of khaki cloth. I could check it now, but my laptop's DVD player is quite dead. MithImage:User MithranArkanere Star.pngTalk 18:24, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
I agree, it does look like the blindfold Neo had in Matrix and yes, it's purple. That might explain why it can't be dyed. Nobody will be hurt if we place that little trivia on the page. Markus Clouser 11:15, 15 October 2009 (UTC)

Errr maybeh its a reverence to illidan terrorblade everyone's favourite blind nightelf in the good old w3 series =D?

i wore a purple blindfold while hitting a piñata when I was 5 years old, I believe they were referencing me. — derp de derp derp a tum tee tiddly tum ta tum Maf 03:37, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
