hi every one,
english is not my mother tongue so i apologize since now about any mistake in my spelling and grammar.
i like the game as it is, but there are some things that could make me like the game even more.
Armor/weapons: i wish armor could not be level based, since we have 80 levels to go through, basically you change armor in a regular basis, crafted armors until exotic are often useless. i mean until you are under level 80 is even stupid to plan builds and stats, or at least it is in early levels. you can’t have a very effective armor/weapon set until the end game, this make you slaughter meal in WvWvW, and also in some maps in PvE.
i remember in gw1 you forget about the armor and weapon pretty fast, it was just a matter of fashion/upgrades/rarity. i really liked that way even if i am aware gw2 is a different game and i should not complain about it… since i am enjoying playing it a lot.
here is my solution… make armor and weapons based on rarity, if it is needed that low level character shouldn’t wear exotic since day one (even if second alts)… it means at level 30, when you unlock all the slots skills you can wear the max stat/protection/dps white armor and weapon, than it is a simple matter of progression… blue at 40, gold at 60, exotic and ascended at 80….
or can we all have armor weapons with no stats? just protection the rarer the higher?
i am cool with the runes slot! it would be nice if armor and weapon could be customized only with 1 or more rune slots in it, or i don’t know maybe a slot for rune, one for the medallion/life rune/insignia etc. etc.
Crafting: i like crafting a lot, it’s easy, not too much time consuming, and the crafted skins are very nice (but the medium that are all coats and i will always be an anticoat supporter…i want leather straps, i want suits, i want skin on male explorers too not only warriors and basically all women in the game… not to mention that imo almost all light and medium armor are ridiculous on charr i don’t even know where to start with the fashion disaster on that front).
can we have more fluff crafting? can we have some town clothes crafting? why a tailor shouldn’t be able to craft his own town clothes? and why a leather worker shouldn’t be able to craft shoes or the infamous coat to style up his life in LA?
can we craft armor skins? i mean same as the normal armor but without insignia.. i know there are a lot of lv125 crafting that requires low mats for insignia but skin crafting could open the way to much more content and contests…
Build: gw1 was all about variety, in every outpost i could reset my build and pretty easily load another one… i really loved that feature, i enjoyed that game in so many ways i can’t even remember my favorite build. and i didin’t need to create an alt to do so unless i was willing to play a different profession. and all of that was free of charge…
i will always like to try new combinations…
now, i don’t mind paying in game cash to do so, or being able to do so only in major cities and some open world surroundings… but can i have a build save and load feature?
forum: can we have a board labelled complains so i know where not to read?
