Guild Wars 2

One of the main aesthetic issues with the engineer is that they predominantly use kits as their weapons, and there is no customisation available for the kits. Hell, the kits even look the same on different races.
Would it be possible to add engineer kit skins to the game, so that we could customise our flamethrowers etc?

In addition, there’s very little reason for an engineer to get a Legendary, as it’ll never be seen due to the engineer always using a kit.
Could we have Legendaries affect the appearance of kits?

Great idea IMO, no idea how it would be done though… Possibly dyes?

On the legendary thing, the Devs know of the players concerns about it but aren’t actively working on it ATM as they are working on things that effect the game/playerbase as a whole.

I would just be happy with a different look depending on the race. Same with the turrets. A similar idea to how WoW eventually did totems for shamans. I think the design should reflect their race.

Guild Wars 2 is the only game lacking proper Armor for it’s Engineer class. Looking at the elixir gun fabulous design I see a great potential not put to work. Engineers need Steam-punk themed costumes. Clockwork, tinker, etc.

I would very much like engineer kit skins to be directly related to their backpack. Especially now that the kit replaces the backpack instead of being on top of it.

Basically if I’m using an invisible back item or none it would be the default skin. If I’m using the engineer unique skin it might be a little different. The wintersday backpack would make it more festive. The Halloween book would make it more mystical. The Fractal item would be more techy. My Charr backpack would make the kits plushy charr themed.

Stuff like that.

Good idia. We need skins for engineer kit’s.
Also you can create new skins for turrets?

I mean, there are already Asura turrets in the game and I’ve seen a piece of concept art for engineer that was Asura with a very Asura looking flamethrower. I’m trying to find it again to link it. It would be similar to the warband support and thieves guild skill.

Asura should have magitech, non-sura should have borrowed, primitive Charr technology.

Simple as that.
