Guild Wars 2

So eating dinner, reading the forums and a idea struck me. Class Change in the gem store. See class change doesnt work in most games with the amount of skills you learn. In GW2 that doesnt really apply as you can be leveled to 80 in most situations anyways.

How ever in PVE this doesnt always work because of slots opened not really skills. So my idea is to simply pay a fee to change class. I personally would do this because I HATE leveling, it just about worst part of the game to me, so you would pay to change your class, yes have to get new gear, yes would have to unlock weapon skills if you didnt unlock them. You would just be level 80.

Now I admit like I said a class change wouldnt work in most games, how ever in GW2 would make perfect sense

Ideas go to the sugestion forum section

Anyway, the real problem with class change is that you would need to alter your biography. It’s just one question, and only to give you an item (maybe in the future that question becomes relevant), but it’s part of your bio.

I politely disagree with class change in general, even if it’s a cash shop item that ANet could rake in some good cash with.

The idea of creating, bonding and celebrating your character is that you aren’t supposed to completely uproot them. That defeats the entire purpose of creating a character.

You said “You can be leveled to 80 in most situations anyways” – and this is partially true. However, the only time where you are level 80 AND as powerful as a level 80 is in SPvP. An upleveled 10→80 in WvW is nowhere near the same as a full 80, the same goes for any events (like lost shores) where you’re brought to cap.

It is also arguable as to whether you would need a profession change if you were to just go to SPvP when you first get out of the starting area, test out the classes various traits/abilities, maybe do some SPvP to test them out – and then commit to leveling them outside. Why would you need to class change a character when you’ve been given every opportunity to not only make/test out another profession, but you’ve also been provided MANY ways in which to bring them to cap as well – fun, unique, varied ways no less.

So what`s the problem? I understand that you still don`t like leveling up, but kinda for the last week, watching all those posts about race change/class change I feel like people can`t decide what they want, or they just want a easy way out when they`ve reached 80 and too lazy to make a new character.

I`m not judging anyone, but leveling in gw seems so simple that you barely have to do anything.

I disagree. All this does is allow you to constantly change around without playing the game – which is pointless.

It also wouldn’t work anyway. If I was a Necromancer, how would ArenaNet handle switching to a Guardian? What about my armor? My weapons? It wouldn’t work, sorry.
