I, among many other people, have noticed that the “back” slot is an underutilized resource in GW2. Obviously, the first thing that came to mind for many people were cloaks and quivers, but I thought immediately of themed backpacks and other items. What better reward for reaching a 400 crafting discipline than a crafting-themed back item?

Huntsman:

A backpack loaded down with bows, arrows, and gun barrels sticking out of every pocket.

Chef:

Two ideas here. A backpack with a small bundle of fruit dangling down the side, pots and pans hanging from the back (a la Sam Gamgee), and jars of spices strapped down to the top.

OR

A portable keg, complete with a tap and dangling beer steins.

Armorsmith:

A miniature forge, with bags of ore hanging from the sides.

Weaponsmith:

A backpack with a miniature anvil resting on top, with a hammer and tongs hanging down.

Artificer:

A portable alchemy set, with vials of various colored liquids and mysterious glowing bits.

Tailor:

An embroidered backpack, with bolts of various cloth strapped to it and a pair of scissors hanging on the outside.

Leatherworker:

A backpack featuring a prominent portable tanning rack.

Jeweler:

A treasure chest, overflowing with gold and gems, strapped to your back.

Craftable back pieces are an amazing idea.

Quivers need to be a must as a back slot. You can choose to wear or hide if it clips that bad. Regardless of clipping, in my opinion, I’d still wear a quiver. There needs to be more Back Accessories in general.

Here’s another one that would be wonderful: A back-flag with your guild emblam on it.
