Guild Wars 2

Our big reward for achievs is this skin, this very unimpressive one in my opinion. I’ve never seen anyone using them, cannot be popular I wouldn’t think. I’m sure theres some metric out there to support that..

They’re ok. I use them while leveling, sort of how I use outfits too while leveling. Same look the whole time to level 80 at no charge.

Actually liked them a lot for a while, especially on angelic characters like my guardian and mesmer. Goes very well with celestial and gold dye color schemes. Only reason I don’t use them now is because I have legendaries and better skins.

Would rather them make more or new weapons in game, or for achieves, or both.

I use them nearly all the time. I love the simplicity and the floating crystal theme. I even transmutes my Bifrost back to the Zenith Spire because I don’t like being too flashy all the time.

The only one I don’t like is the greatsword – it’s too bulky.

I hadn’t used them in a while — but then a look clicked for my sylvari reaper with her glowing golden Wedding Attire and butterfly wings, and the Zenith GS was the best possible match. So that’s what her Dark Harvest looks like for now

Nonetheless I agree, the Zenith design doesn’t generally work well with most looks and certainly doesn’t look like something you’d actually use to fight with. I almost always prefer weapons that look wieldable and dangerous, ones people really would carry around, though I do want them to have some elegance. Not rusty and dull. Not that ANet can change up the Zenith appearance at this point, it never goes well for them when they alter skins after the fact.

I actually like them but the problem is they don’t match the look I have on that char or if they do, I have another look that I like better.

Now the Pinnacle ones are a completely different story. A remake of zenith and that purplish color is hard to match with anything on top of that.

I’ve used them occasionally, and I occasionally see them. I think they’re a pretty decent reward, although they certainly wear off by the time you start getting down to your fourth, fifth, etc. choice.

I’m not keen on changing things long after they’ve been released. Could they be better? Maybe, but I don’t think it’s worth rocking the boat for people who already like the way they are.

I’m going to assume you’re just saying you’ve never seen anyone using them as a point of exaggeration, because I really doubt that. They aren’t super common or anything, but I tend to see at least a couple of them in any large zerg or any time I’m walking around LA checking other characters out.

And even if they were rather unpopular, there would no doubt be someone out there that likes them. Changing them now would be crapping on someone, somewhere, and possibly for a skin that you wouldn’t find any more impressive than the current incarnation.
