Guild Wars 2

So in looking around for cool rifle skins, I discovered that the only Mystic Forge recipe for a rifle is the Mystic Rifle. This was a little disappointing, as some of the coolest weapon skins in the game are the named exotics that you can make via the Mystic Forge.

However, if you look at the wiki page for Mystic Forge recipes, it becomes even more clear how unbalanced the weapons are in terms of how many different skins there are that can be made for each weapon. Use a Focus? Great, well, you’ve got about 15 different mystic forge skins to choose from. Anything else? You’re lucky to get 3 or 4 skins to choose from. If you use a rifle, well, sorry, there aren’t any recipes for you. Use a long or short bow? Well, hopefully blue goes well with your character, because the only options are a blue spirit weapon or an ice shard weapon.

Basically, my suggestion is just to add in more skins for other weapons besides Foci. I’m not saying that every weapon type should have 15 mystic forge recipes, but it is a little strange that there aren’t ANY rifles, and that many other weapon types are so limited in choices.

Would love to see some new skins rolled out to make this more balanced.
