Guild Wars 2

Engineers are a class I /really/ want to like, and play, but every time I make one, I just stare at the abilities and sort of cringe at the artwork. Perhaps this is petty of me but ‘looks’ are a big deal for me and judging by the customization avaliable in the game, Anet does too.

My Problem: Engineer ‘tech’ doesn’t look like it ‘fits’ with the rest of the game. It looks rather cobbled together from scraps with no real nod to the existing tech styles of the game.

My Suggestion: Make a couple different themed skins or similar, perhaps based on race.

An Engineer based in Asuran Technology will have lots of glowing blue lights, floating crystals and other magitech asuran looking gismos.

An engineer versed in Charr tech however will look different. Metal Barrels, rusty gears, jagged edges and ironwork filigree and the like. Something that looks like it was crafted in the black citadel.

These are my ideas and suggestions and think they would add a lot of flair, fun and uniqueness to the class.

i actually really like this suggestion… then again; i do really like the toolkit as it is on my asura engi… maybe as an optional change (/gem store purchase)?
