Guild Wars 2

I thought it was neat how in the pavilion we were given the option to get other cultural weapons. I would love to be able to do this with the armors. I wonder if we could get a limited event that would allow us to purchase them like we did the weapons- pretty please

Pavilion just gather sellers in one place and made insane price for weapons. You can but them for just 9k karma in home locations :/

Yeah I knew that when they were there.. but still the idea that we had the option was very cool. You cannot do that with the armors though

The armor can only be worn by that race because A it’s that cultures armor and B because it was only designed with that race in mind. There are no Human T3 renders, for example, on a Charr.

There’s a reason they’re cultural armor sets.

They adopted me when I was just a wee baby.

Edit: Ok, seriously, of course I see your point. However, seeing how overprices the weapons were I would think it might be a good gold sink for some.

I like wearing japanese cloths..

Just because your not there race does not mean you can’t be part of there CULTURE.

Hence: Cultural and not Racial.

There is an asura in the very first personal story instance (that Snaff prize competition) wearing T3 human light armor. This is a fact.

EDIT:
Here he is.

I support this.
No point to race-lock the cultural armors.
Daecollo is absolutely RIGHT.

Except there’s a DIFFERENCE here.

You’re supposed to CHOOSE a RACE at the START of the game. GUESS WHY ?

Yeah, sure, be accepted into their culture, but you won’t get the stuff a native will get.

Or, if we follow this logic, might as well give everything to everyone, and every skills to everyone too, and every weapons, and etc…

Yeah, brilliant idea, let’s make this game even less attracting with even less choice.

Edit:

You might like wearing japanese clothes, but you might still look like a fool in it. I’m sure I can go to war and shoot people. Should I ?

GW1 EOTN had these cultural armors for everyone.
Yes, we was able to play Humans only but all the GW2 playable races offered even armors of their design. The same we want here.

There are issues with racial elites and other benefits for professions, and over all, the game is about to make a unique avatar to play on, not to chose the best meta race for your profession. This is exactly why we’re able to use every profession at every race, no restrictions.

BUT if crafting system would work like putting different parts together, or the whole customization would be mutch more serious as recommended, that would may be enough…

How about a new “racial item” transmute stone.
Sold in gem store of course.

I’m kind of jealous of the human t3 female medium with the underbewb shirt. Totally hilarious.
