Guild Wars 2

I thought arena net was finally moving away from the RNG with the Guantlet reward from completing the living story. Then I found out that the gloves achieved from the living story could not be transferred to PvP. I was pretty kitten since I spent all day from 0% living story to finishing it, just for the gloves. How come virtually anyone can get the gloves in PvE but it’s still just the lucky few who manage a drop from PvP to recieve the gloves? If they weren’t around for a limited time it would be different. But I’ve been spamming tournies non stop since the patch, and still no gloves, even if I do get a pair, they could be light or heavy and I can’t even use them on my main/only toon I play. What the kitten.

oh what. i thought with the ones you got from PvE you COULD use in PvP like normal “skin” items. but if you chose to use ‘em in PvE, there is a super slight chance that you’d get them in chests for PvP. but in fact, the skin is PvE specific? hmm.

i did read in another thread that someone got a few gauntlets from PvP using left over tourney tickets to turn in for chests. out of 8-9 chests that is.

and then in the chests, they’d be random too? ://

Nope, not PvP convertable, and I kitten I should’ve saved my 40 tourny tickets to spend now, I just spent them last week!!!

I’m annoyed personally that I only get ONE armored type of the bloody things. One would figure with 5 free slots and most peeps have 6 or 7 at least you speak with not to mention all the 10 slot peeps. They’d want to give people 3 or more with one of each type so they’d have some bloody options. Really stinking annoying they did this one character only BS.

I’m one of those with 10 (I think I’m up to 11 now, with the last one still unused). I’m mad that they made it so we can only get one pair of gauntlets. I don’t even really like the look of them, but it still kitten es me off that I can’t get a ticket for each armor class, if not each character I run through the content. They really keep screwing us with that have several alts.

Persoanlly I like how it was only one character per account. It was an achievement bonus which makes sense that you can only get once.

I hope in the future they add move achievement bonuses like that.
