Guild Wars 2

I would really like arenanet to add a racechanger
2+ in two things arenanet will make money out of it and we could switch race if we werent satisifed enough with our race at lvl 80.

The price could really be higher than 800gems but not to much.

There’s already a thread on this.

Firstly, ANet have already said no. Roll a new character.

Secondly, I find it seriously hard to believe that it took you to level 80 before you realised you didn’t like the race you were playing.

…………….what do you mean by “racechanger”?

There are certain logistical problems with suddenly changing your race, mainly the personal story would have to either be replayed or have your choices simply copied over on a 1, 2, 3 kinda basis (you chose option 1 for Human so we’ll make you have option 1 again in the Sylvari line, for example), the thing with that is that the amount of choices may not even line up. Sure, default answers could just be put in but then that kinda ruins the whole, “personal” side of the personal story. You didn’t choose them any more.
Another problem that this would open up, while not a game breaker, you could level one character to 80 and then change its race a few times and all of a sudden you have all of the story achievements.
For those that would say, “I don’t care about the story, I don’t do it!”, that doesn’t actually matter at all, the problem would still exist and would still need fixing.

Other problems would be how to handle cultural armour. Do you simply get a refund? What if you transmuted it? (as if you didn’t) Have it changed into the equivalent new cultural armour? Remodel the entire cultural armour system to allow every race to use every combo? I dunno, I’m just saying that it would be a whole lot more work behind the scenes than simply saying, “Ok, now you’re a Charr!”

Just roll a new character, I say.
