Guild Wars 2

Please create some non skirt options for Light Female Armor. If you have ever worn a long skirt you know that the idea of running cross country in a ball gown is a tad ridiculous. Fighting is even worse.

GW2 continues to amaze me with the richness of the world. The political and philosophical vignettes, popular culture references and visual puns such as Nightmare weapons being sold by Valiant Serequel me paying attention instead of queueing up music on my headphones.

Please don’t go much more Steampunk in general. Anachronism is an interesting spice but too much will destroy the atmosphere.

I’d like there to be a way to craft precursor weapons. Even if it were an epic grind. I can’t see earning/buying 1000+ gold for a weapon that isn’t really a major upgrade.

The Captain in the Crows Nest bar, Lion’s Arch ( where the Whispers safehouse entry is ) tells an interesting story. It grates on me because it uses wrong terms. He states that The Capricorn can’t be made to weigh anchor and therefore never stops.

In fact, to “weigh” anchor is to pull it up. To moor, one “drops” or “sets” anchor. It shows an uncharacteristic lack of attention and is annoying to a real world sailor.

Great job in general A Net. The game is awesome.

The female Profane Armor Skin in the gem store is most certainly not a skirt. It’s more of a garter belt deal as is rather skimpy. I know that doesn’t solve your concern but I thought I’d throw it out there in the event you might be interested in such an option. I feel the same way about medium armor and the abundance of trench coats.

It’s unfortunate that we are unable to +1 the OP in a “Q” thread.
But you have a +1 from me in regards to most of what you’ve stated.
(I say most as precursors, crafting and anything related to legendaries in general have a real big N/A regarding my interest in them).

I agree with the OP in general, and would like to see more in this already rich world. I mean I don’t know very many games where i want to just listen to the npcs talk to each other.

Please, tell me which sets look like ball gowns, since I’ve been looking for one for my mesmer since ever. Every single long skirt in the game is either skimpy, tattered, made of foliage, have pants underneath or are male only (I wish my mesmer could wear the male version of the Winged Pants).
I’m all for new armor skins of every style, seriously, and I understand your opinion, which is completely valid. I’m just stating mine.

I agree with the rest of the post, except for the Steampunk part because I love the style.

If you want pants, check Ascalon Catacombs armor and the first tier crafted light armor. As for crafted precursors, if you read a bog post they made a while ago, they are working on that.

Also, it’s pointless to complain about the style the developers choose for the game. If you don’t like some themes, well, that’s your personal view on the matter.
