Guild Wars 2

I searched the suggestion forums and it came up with a few threads that talked about race change being available in the gem store and I saw some comments about possible issues regarding that option. I think race change would be fantastic (I’d honestly be willing to spend $10-$20 on this) but I do agree there are some problems associated with the idea. However, I think there should be a window of opportunity to do so, kind of like a “once you cross this line, you’re locked into this race” kind of thing.

Please let me know if you see any problems with this idea but I think I’ve identified a window that this could be done. Here are the prerequisites as I see them.

-Be level 80 (sometimes you only know you don’t like a race until after you’ve put a lot of time into them and gotten to know some of their quirks)

-Complete your personal story line (I think this would eliminate any problematic approaches to how your story plays out with a race change)

-No cultural armor yet acquired on that character (obviously I can’t buy human cultural armor on my Asura and I like that I can’t. I see the issue with this)

As far as I can see this really eliminates the problems that have been brought up in other threads about this issue. This stems from leveling my third level 80 character (an Asura) and at first I really liked him but now after 40+ levels I can’t stand everything being so small on him that I can barely make out the different parts of armor sets and weapons like I can on my other characters. His movements are getting kind of annoying as well so those two key issues were enough to make me barely want to play him and I don’t plan on making any more characters in the short term so I’d really rather not go through the process of leveling yet another character.

I understand the Dev’s will not be personally responding to this and I’m ok with that. Frankly, I’d be amazed if they even had people to read through all of these threads. But I would like to get some feedback from the player base of my suggestion. Are there any other problems you see other than what I’ve identified? I think I found the sweet spot but I might be getting tunnel vision on the issue.

Thanks to any and all who respond.
