Guild Wars 2

First of all, just going to say that I haven’t browsed through the suggestions section myself so apologies in advance if I’m repeating anything that’s already been said. Not quite sure what else to say other than that I’m tired of having to constantly open my inventory/hero tab to switch between magic find/combat gear and different tiers of gathering tools.
I feel that there should be able to switch between two different sets of armor easily, like you can with weapons. There would be a “Set A” and “Set B” so that it would be quicker for a player to switch between two builds or looks. If any gear slots in one of the sets is empty, the helmet for example, the helmet from the other set would be left on if there were one. The set that is not currently in use could either stay equipped in the sense that it doesn’t get sent back to the inventory (though, of course you wouldn’t receive any extra bonuses) or it could go back into the inventory (and the amount of gems that go toward unlocking the last bag slot would remain unaffected by this feature). You would not be able to switch while your character is in combat.

For tool swapping, it could be something simple.. Maybe just a button or keybind somewhere that would let you switch all three tools to each tier. One for copper, one for iron, etc. up to master’s. Again, you would not be able to do so in combat. If you were to hit a tier without having any tool of that kind, it would alert you and keep that slot with whatever it had before.

If it isn’t already clear, the point of these changes would only be convenience. The only new, possibly unfair advantage we would be getting otherwise is being able to quickly switch your gear in wvw/pvp based on the situation you’re in. If you’re running around alone in wvw and you engage someone, it would be possible for one to run away until they’re no longer in combat and switch to either a tanky/damage set, and then chase their enemy again.

Too tired to re-read and revise this, so sorry if it’s a bit unorganized or unclear.
