Guild Wars 2

Anyone else feel this way?

Most of the half decent looking armour has something dopey that (in MY opinion, before people jump on me) really ruins it’s look like one giant pauldron then a flimsy piece of tin on the other shoulder, or one leg clad in armour and the other bare (where’s the sense there?)

I mostly get annoyed that some pieces look so great together, but have different textures making it difficult to dye. Then I switch maps, and the colors look off again. Main culprit: TA armor!

I am very strange.. Because I really enjoy asymmetrical things. and I often try to unbalance it further by having one side look one way while the other pales in comparison. That thing that irks me is many of the pants are “thin” on the opposite side of many of the pauldrons. Que Que.

I get annoyed that they don’t have many single shoulder Pauldrons for mail or their lack on custom hunting horns.

Ditto. It can be pretty tough to dye a piece that has both metal and cloth (or another sort of combination) since the same color will look different on each weight type.

I’m with Rapthorne on this. I’d like to see more symmetrical armors in the game. And more armors that look like actual armor too.

I’d throw mad amounts of money if you could customize left/right pauldrons and gloves.

by the lack of decent looking symmetrical armours?

Totally agree.

Same here too.
(and Rytloks new armor isn’t helping either, with its asymmetrical shoulders It looks cool as kitten, until you see the shoulders.)

Completely agree. So over the asymmetrical armor pieces.

I’m with you. its really annoying, and damages the flow of the overall looks of my characters

Death the Kid agrees.

The problem is not only with the armors. We also have:

Swords having the same size as a GS.
Daggers with the same size as swords.
Hammer heads too small compared with the long of the grip.
The grip in some axes and maces are too long.

etc…

I`d rather have the “oven pipe” type of boot shafts and “free ankle” heavy armor skins fixed (here`s a hand down from your older/younger sister live with it sweety).

I could post screens but anyone playing female humans already ran into this problem. Especially if you have to buy them for gold (like the Vigil armor boots). I nearly went nutz when I saw that…. should have checked before spending on them.
