Guild Wars 2

I’d like to ask if there are any plans, however obscure to add new looks to the game? I mean new armor/headpiece/backpiece w/e designs? With the release of wardrobe system this will be a very actual thing.

Example, hood with a scarf. (Me personally, playing a thief would love to see something like this ingame).

At the moment I think scarfs and capes wont be an option becouse of clipping and stuff

I would realy like scarfs like ‘Shinobi’ for my thief… I hope some day
Anyhow, there are always comming new armors now and then… Backpacks are lots but I guess they are easier to make so thats why there is loads of them

Edit: O btw, to get a hood for your thief. Create a new thief… On the first “story” choises choose the one that will give your thief a hood. As the new system is going live today I am not going to explain how to give it to your other characters.

I do have the hood for my thief. I am however worried if starter skins are incorporated in the wardrobe system (subterfuge hood, hood of anonymity).

They should – of course you’d need to get them again if you don’t have them anymore.

Yeah. Can always use an empty character slot (if you have one) to make a new character with the starter headpiece/shoulderpiece you want, log in with it into the game and unlock that skin in the wardrobe, then delete the character. Think a lot of people will be doing that for thieves, eles, warriors, etc that have choices of starter equipment during creation.

So profession-bound skins will be in the wardrobe?
Hell yea

They’re not really profession bound… You could simply transmute them and use them on a different character anyway.

Yea but that required 2 transmution crystals
First ur preferred skin to white so that it becomes account bound then another for your exotic stat armor

There’s a new backpiece skin available for completing the new PvP track.

Also, there’s also the new MIstforged weapon skins, for every weapon in the game at the end of the WvW tournament.

The Devs also stated in the Wardrobe thread(s) that new Outfits/skins will be released in the future.

I would love to see more backpieces, personally I wanted the elegant guild back banner , so I can properly rep my guild, but that piece (and savage version) is rather shy, nobody will see it unless they are positioned at my 4’ or 8’ o’clock.

I wish those guildback banners were more like the one carried by medieval japanese soldiers, like in their backs

In the Gemstore.*

Not all of them Engineers have been not only locked from being used by any other class but also locked from being used by any other character. It’s been that way for the longest especially for goggles.

Well, Outfits, of course. They’ve never been anywhere else. Other skins may be available through the Living Story, or ..whatever. Just like before.

I’d like to see some full new sets acquireable in actual game, not gemstore.

I mean, over almost 2 years We’ve not gotten a single full set of new armor that wasn’t a gemstore thing.
I get it that ANet needs that money but come on, most of the players just get this armor by gold anyway and not releasing any new armor skin is a shame.

I agree.

I personally like to earn rewards through actual gameplay rather than swiping my credit card to obtain them, but that might just be me.

We need more variations for non-80 especially. Honestly, average player will just equip maybe 3-4 things that differ in skin on his way to 80. If the player really makes an effort with crafting, going all round the world he may find maybe like 8.

It kills the leveling experience. I remember leveling my first toon – for like 40 or 50 levels I was so disappointed in everything I had found because it looked exactly the same. Bland armor which doesn’t differ from starting gear that much.

It was totally horrible and I felt no progression of character. Some people were even desperate enough to buy expensive gem store looks and put them on their armors to make any difference.

Honestly, we need a lot of good armor skins.
It applies also to non-gemstore weapons but it’s not that visible in here.
