Since the game was released 2+ years ago, individuals really wanted to see certain aspects from Guild Wars 1 carry over to Guild Wars 2.

This new Mist Herald Backpack looks really cool. However, it irks me when for the past 2 years i see posts upon posts explaining how “difficult” it is to create a cape due to “design parameters” etc. Now, a very similar product gets introduced into the Gem Store…

In essence, this new Mist Herald Backpack is a basically cape, but sideways and sticks out profusely. It is made from cloth. It moves when your character moves. It’s a sideways cape.

So, Arenanet.. my three questions to you are that;

a) Where the hell are the traditional style capes from Guild Wars 1?
b) Why haven’t they been implemented yet? because based on this new item in your Gem Store, it is possible.
c) Is the reason you have not implemented so far due to the lack of a greater enough market for Capes?

It is very evident that your strategic objectives and goals are “new player” focused due to the plethora of updates within the past 2 quarters. I just want to see what your thought processes are. As an individual that has marketing experience, I see a huge opportunity in the market and a lack of seizing upon that opportunity.

Thanks in Advance for any/all responses to this post.

Gold Cape via Hall of Monuments pls…
