Can they put some good stuff back in the gem store or what? I’m not trying to look like 80’s Poison Ivy from the Batman comics.

Kinda hard to give you my money when all there is in the gem store is a salad jump suit and piglet mini pets.

Bring back the Raiments of the Lich and some Black Feathered Wings if you want my money. The game should be hitting 1000 days old soon. I was expecting something a little more special.

Definitely needs more super shiny laser headgear and even more massive feathery wings that now block every opponent’s attack in the game complete with a full on beach attire outfit… NOW IN THE GEM STORE FOR ONLY 9000 GEMS!

Jokes aside; I wish they’d bring back a few things tbh. I do miss the odd free item in the gem store like they used to have.. Or even the big sales they do.. In regards to bag slots. I would love more of those.

I want them to bring back free hats for Wintersday. I know they want to try and milk gems from us, but hats on Wintersday is a tradition. One that they only brought over for a single year in gw2.

Can’t remember the last time I caught a sale on something for the account, I mean bank slots, bag slots, etc.

On sale, I’d grab some of that, and the 500 stack of materials kinda stuff.

Make me buy.

I would like to have white feathered wings and in general things that make my guardian look more “holy” or “angel like”. Or cross themed weapons (gladly with some ghosty-blue fire) . A hood would also be nice ( and no the grenth thing or that other one with demonic smiley doesn’t fit my imagination).
And maybe some more items with the ankh theme of the guardian like the shoulder plates or the helmet.

Anet hates your money, they hate my money, they hate all monies everywhere. They refuse to do the things that would make them money. That led me to playing other games. That led me to playing other games that are more challenging. That led me to playing other games that are more aesthetically appealing. That led me to playing games that clearly want my money for cosmetic items. That led to Anet getting zero dollars from me anymore.

Insert zero stones, zero crates Zorg meme

Rarely does Anet reply or respond to these thread about what players want in the Gem Shop. Players begged for a year to throw their money at Anet for bunny ears and nada. Players beg en masse to give Anet their dollars, Anet plays dead. They hate money.

There’s an entire gem shop suggestion thread; your suggestions will go unheeded, but have a look see and post there if the mood strikes you.

I’m still dreaming of the day, when an army of angel like guardians rules the WvW with seals, consecrations on the field and hymns in the air.
Already got a guild for that purpose ( though i’m actually the only on in it, partially because i just had a 11 month break) – maybe someday, all those with a guardian in their hearts and a paladin fetish in their minds will rise

Then I’m sure you’ll be happy with the new guardian specialization, if the preview art is anything to go by…

I definitely need some more interesting gemstore items, like

  • astronaut outfit (and separate armor pieces too, to mix and match)
  • ray gun pistol and rifle (in different colors)
  • motorcycle item similar to the broom or carpet
  • helmet with evil knievel design
  • black hole mail carrier where your mail comes out of a black hole that appears
  • swiss army knife dagger skin
  • bagpipe musical instrument since i am too slow to play the harp
  • a kilt leg armor to go with the bagpipe
  • Horrik’s cannon as a costume brawl weapon that would shoot cake or pie
  • ball of yarn to play with for all the charr
  • rollerskates toy

It is possible that it’s a skin, but it’s also possible that it’s part of the specialization itself, as an animation of sorts perhaps when using skills, or as part of the new class mechanic (an F4 skill perhaps). Look up GW1 Paragons to see what I mean.

In fact, chances are, this is a Paragon specialization.

I wouldn’t be all that surprised if they turn out to be a recolor or reskin of the Shattered Dragon Wing Skin.

Would actually be helpful if Anet allowed us to buy gems.

Ever since the black wings wrecked the gems to gold trade ratio for 48 hours, there hasn’t been much of anything exciting in the gem store. Lol

Just googled her and I think that is kind of what I am trying to make my char look like, actually…

I even asked for a leggings and flat-heeled thigh boots (instead of the skirt and heels) version of the Daydreamer’s Finery, yesterday…

Kinda hard to give you my money when all there is in the gem store is a salad jump suit and piglet mini pets.

Bring back the Raiments of the Lich and some Black Feathered Wings if you want my money. The game should be hitting 1000 days old soon. I was expecting something a little more special.

Ah yes, 1000 Days, that ultra special anniversary we all celebrate religiously…

But seriously, just wondering why you didn’t buy the Raiments when they were available recently?

I can understand that you probably missed the wings, as they were only available very briefly.

I agree with you that, in general, there should be more choice; although, I don’t necessarily agree with you re. which specific things are better than others.

But, that is why we need more choice, at all times – as we all prefer different things.

I agree, I’d like to see more “shinies” in the gemstore.
