Guild Wars 2

It would be nice to have some enchantments (they don’t have to provide stats, etc) so we can get some visual effects on our weapons and maybe shoulders.

I’d rather have visual effects on my helmet so I can set my head on fire

This can cause problems.
In a game where aesthetics is one of the major plus, giving colors and animations to enchantments may conflict with the theme you want to give your character.

It’s not the best idea.

@Nurvus. They are enchantments. They are optional.

OP, Good idea.

I’m guilty as charged.
I usually read the OP, but this time I just read the title.
I must be catching the troll virus.
My apologies xD

Indeed if it’s optional and purely cosmetic I’m all for it, as long as the enchantments aren’t tied to any aspect of the game.

Why do I say this?
Because if some enchantments require specific PvP or PvE achievements, it’ll be the new gearscore and will ruin the game.

@Nurvus, I agree, and i’m glad I saved you from the troll virus
