Guild Wars 2

I’ll be honest here: this isn’t the sort of thing that should be very high on Anet’s priority list. But it peeves me a bit, so I decided to post about it here.

It feels like something should be done about armor clipping issues. The one that immediately comes to mind would be how, on female toons, medium Vigil pants will clip with at least 1/3 boot skins, with the Council Watch boots looking especially clippy, despite how the two could actually go really well together.

At the same time, I made a Norn female toon with the “long ponytail” hair, and it will often clip hideously with the toon’s body. Swimming in certain directions makes the ponytail move as a single unit and actually impale the character through the back.

Again, I know that this isn’t (and shouldn’t be) very high on the radar, but I have to ask: will anything be done about it in the future?

They never fixed armor clipping in GW1 why would they fix it in this game?

Clipping is very, very low on their priority list because it’s something that the majority of players do not care for and it’s extremely labor intensive to fix.

It doesn’t make any sense to dedicate resources to it. By the time you are finished fixing this issue, the playerbase has gone on to other games because you neglected all the more important things to focus on, like content or game-breaking bugs

I feel that at least Legendary and cultural armor -related clipping issues should be fixed.
It takes a lot of hard work and dedication to get them and I feel that those who are willing to put in the time and effort should have something to show for it.

Yes, we’ve already established that it’s low on their priority list, thank you for reiterating that.

Heavens forbid a game with a lategame largely dedicated to character customization have its customization fixed so that it looks better.
