Guild Wars 2

Hello! I was perusing the Gem Shop and was previewing all of the armors on my Ranger to see what they looked like. I really liked how the Primeval Armor looked on him, but unfortunately the armor skin is restricted to heavier characters.

I believe any armor skin in the Gem Shop should be applicable to any profession since they are purely cosmetic. Also, since they don’t have any stats, light characters would not be able to reap the reward of heavy armor.

If the restriction for armor was lifted, that also may provide people, such as myself, to purchase gems with real-world currency to acquire said skin(s).

With this logic, skins should all be available for any armor type…

‘reward of heavy armor’ lol…

I enjoy the challenge of medium armor. People with light/heavy armor don’t even have to try to make their characters look cute or girly (or kittenty but that’s not my goal). Try just having coats, coats, and more coats! I think I did pretty good with my ranger though.

No, I already extremely dislike the fact that anet is adding global skins like radiant and hellfire. Classes (light, medium, heavy) should have their own unique armor types and skins. It makes no sense for a ranger to wear heavy armor, it makes no sense for a warrior to wear light armor, etc etc.

Do I think we need more medium armor variety? YUP. Tired of my only choice being coats. I DONT WANT TO WEAR HUGE COATS ON EVERYTHING

Yeah, can’t wear that on my asura, charr, norn, or sylvari. And it still goes past the knees….

How about some medium jackets that all races can use? There is 1. And it’s…. poofy.

I am only saying that all Gem Shop skins should be made available since they do not carry light/medium/heavy-specific stats. Every other skin in the game carries with it light/medium/heavy-specific stats.

I do not think it is too far-fetched that a Ranger could wear a heavy-skin (not stats). I mean, axes, swords, and greatswords are available to the Ranger, allowing them to engage in close-quarters combat. It would be pretty tight.

Most of the armors available to the Ranger are pretty coat-y. To be honest, the Ranger armor in the Gem Shop seems to be the best of the coat-armors….just enough length, flows really well, etc. etc….

No skin has to carry stats with it. Transmutation.

I don’t have the game open right now, but there’s Ranger armor in the gem shop now? This must be new.
