Guild Wars 2

Would it be possible for Anet to change how you channel finishers? Currently the only way you channel finishers is you have your character channel an orb into his hands and plunge it into his body for a finishing blow. I would love for this to be part of the Wardrobe.

Example execution: Dance around your enemy and complete a ritual to land a finishing blow.

Possible? Yes. Likely? Not very, because it involves adding a significant amount of “background” support code, including new network layer data, to make it happen.

It’s comparable to, say, adding dye channels to weapons — huge amount of work, almost all of which is absolutely invisible to the player.

Not too mention all the extra animations they would have to design and deploy. Weeks of work for a new animation that lasts for only several seconds seems like it would be a less than efficient way to spend dev resources.
