Guild Wars 2

With this April update, its easier than ever to play and experiment with builds now that traits are refundable almost anywhere. I’d love to try out a ton of the new runes as well, but it can be quite costly or take up lots of invent space if you bring in another set of armor to accommodate the new runes. So my suggestion is that a second slot for runes be opened on any piece of armor that can be swapped to at certain times. Ultimately I’d love it if runes were merely unlockable like the new armors, or in pvp, but that would change the price of runes drastically, which wouldn’t sit well with a lot of ppl who make and sell them I’m sure.

If a second slot was to be introduced, I think it should be that they can be swapped at certain npc’s, like an armor repair npc. If it was freely swappable out of combat, I imagine it could be used as a wvw battle strategy when I’m trying to have as little impact as possible on things.

My goal is more or less to be able to try out a lot of the new runes, and put them to use in pve without the need of several armor sets. For instance, in arah, I have need of a condition duration armor set, so that I can immobilize the tar boss, and for lupi, I’d like to try runes of mercy to help with a reviving ppl quickly.

Tell me what you guys think.
