Guild Wars 2

Dear ANet,

I’ve been playing this game for a while now and I think the game is really beautiful. I mean gorgeous!

One thing however that struck me unpleasantly is that the (advanced) heavy sets all have very bulky boots. While in GW quite a lot of the warrior sets had pretty, sleek and slim boots tightly around the legs, it seems that in GW2 only light armour offers such a pleasant option. This makes me quite sad.

So I ask: can we have nice boots in the new dungeon reward set? Please?

Thanks,
Finny

The heavy boots from HotW are “slim”

Same request for medium armor too, please. Not everyone wants to spend 17 gold on T3 human cultural boots (medium) to achieve a tapered calf legging look. And not everyone is human to begin with.

The medium boots from CM are quite slim and pretty though!

Fair enough, but it’s CM (shudder). And that’s how many unfun runs? It’s bad enough I have to slog through AC 15x times to get enough tokens for a staff whose stats I can only get from there, and for 500 tokens that will eventually be needed to get Twilight.

Other dungeons are fun to run. Not AC and CM.

have you been repeating the tame path over and over?

getting boots takes 3 runs, getting a weapon takes 6 (if they’re two handed).

Interesting Topic, thanks guys… really gives me a few good ideas about how CM’s heavy Seraph could be modified to match the aesthetics of the other 2 far-more elegant Sets. …don’t suppose anyone has some GW1 references to link to??

@shaktiboi.5194: but for the boots you only need 3 runs, it’s just 180 tokens!
And the HoTW spikey boots are hardly what you dare to call “stylish”.

Better yet, how about medium chest armor that’s NOT a trenchcoat! Not many options for medium armor other than Duelist (78) or the human cultural.

+1

I’m happy with the human cultural and will spend the money on it eventually. I even rerolled my level 54 Syvari thief as a human specifically to wear that armor someday, once I learned that the other skin that Sylvari could wear was so random to acquire (see next paragraph)…

I’m unhappy that the exotic duelist skin you refer to appears to be only a random reward for zone completion of high-level zones, so there’s no way to reliably acquire it. I never want to buy a piece of exotic duelist from the TP because there’s no preview on the TP and there’s crafted duelist that looks nothing like that particular skin.

So ya, +1 for more truly “assassin-like” armor choices instead of trenchcoats with a pirate or noble feel.
