I hope this could be carefully considered, I have a suggestion towards a new cash hop item, I’m playing a mesmer who uses light armor as armor classification and notice the dragonic armor for heavy types is very cool. I also have a friend who plays a thief and wants acess to the looks of the tier 3 racial human (she does play a human) light armor even though she has to wear medium armor. My suggestion is a cash/gem store item possibly name it something catchy like “transmoprh stone” and allow this item to change the item class of a gear without loosing it’s looks. Hence a “Clerics Dragonic Coat” of heavy armor can be selected into being either medium or light armor class, while the name does not need to change as medium annd light armor both call there pants, “pants” and the heavy armor is refered to as legs, what the item can change is the stats speciifc to the gear, allowing the items to get direct reclassification into light armor equivilant stats, so the “Cleric Dragonic Pants” Become “Clerics DRagonic Pants” but get changed into a light armor class, and have a window displaying the light armor eqvuielant with it’s light armor stats before confirming the transmoraphying process. This does not need to be applied to weapon, but solid armor exchanges could allow more costume diveristy and definitely give people a chance to really customize there charachter appearence. On more exotic items or rares, that do not have a identical name, it generally appears any stat type intial name signifies a set stat group then it gets some tags at the end for identifying mdeium and light being the same name and heavy being a change however all gear mostly appears to have light, medium, and heavy equivalents. This item i cannot guarentee full proofness. I have to use the trading post for armor references, I’ll bring attention to a speciifc example, there a 55 master work glove, called “excavators glove” there is no item for sale in the trading post with the search “Master work; rarity, 55; level, and All; armor type, only show available, off” with a heavy armor, medium armor equivalent. I do not know to prescedent at which all armors had every class of armor making 3 but with stat variations for each class of armor, as well as including all grades. Though, the concpet is definetly one I am recomending and if the data is pre-existant enough to allow such a broad ranger gem shop addition I would promise not only I but others would flock to it’s use, One of my characters name Hrist, a popular valkyire profile character from the playstation consoles, would love a heavy armor that assimilates a near or similar appearence to the actual video game referenced character. Something in the DRagonic Heavy armor very much mirrors a looks I am working towards, and a possible new item to allow me to get that look with light armor stats would be appreciated and wanted. I can’t acess codes, but perhaps some time to confer on the possability of such an item existing and with the group effort of the staff and devlopement team a short time spent on possibly concieving such an item could help bring more custimization to the game as well as a development team adding a new lucrative gem shop item to boost revenue for the gem shop. That is my presented suggestion, thank you for your time and I continue to love my time with this game as a player, it’s a great service of quallity in modern MMO’s that this game seems to continually deliver and provide.
