Guild Wars 2

I just took Primeval armor and I can’t use armor skin on my character. My char have engineer class which use Medium armor. It wasn’t described in chest which type is armor. How I can know?

it is hard to write like Primeval (Heavy armor)? Does it takes a lot space in server? Please don’t cheat anymore player and write description of armor before we take.

Um. If you’re new, then I can understand, but if you aren’t, you’re pretty lazy because on the BLTC, it’s been written there since day 1. Even still, perhaps you should research your purchase before hand in general?

They really should put a description if that’s true. New players will likely be confused.

I mean when put mouse on Chest it doesn’t show description. You only can find out in Black Lion. But who can know what you need to check in Black Lion before you take Legacy armor chest. Is just silly name in legacy armor which doesn’t describe which type is armor. Alos you can by mistake and from Black Lion market, because by name you can’t find out.

Why is so hard just add extra word in armor title or just when move your mouse on chest it can show what it doesn’t support for active char because is a wrong class. It resolve many problems and makes players happy. I don’t what I need to this armor because I can’t use at all. I don’t want to give to another car, I want armor just for this because I am leveling it.

Look man. Is just armor skins. So I didn’t want to waste time look in BLTC. Also I didn’t expect that armor skins only for specify class. I like Primeval type, why is just heavy armor? Why they can make for medium and light class. Or just inform you that this armor is not for your active char. We have a strong guild wars developer team and they can do this. Other wise I believe that they are cheating by doing this: offering things where your can’t use for you active character.

This is the description in the Gem Store when you hover over the item:

A full set of heavy armor skins based on the original Guild Wars Primeval armour set. This skin has no stats of its own and can only be equipped by characters who wear heavy armour.

The skin can be applied once per piece to replace the appearance of another heavy armour item.

This skin can be converted for PvP use.

While it may possibly be confusing for someone new to the game, if you already know what armour your profession uses, then it’s just a case you didn’t read the description properly.

That onus is down to you then for not looking at what you’re purchasing.

Anet hasn’t cheated you in any way, shape or form, since they’ve written what the armour is, and for what armour class it’s used for and, by your own admission, you didn’t bother to read the label.

As I remember from Guild Wars 1 that same title armor was for all type (light, medium, heavy). In guild Wars 2 is different? Why? Maybe they decided in Guild Wars 2 to make more profits from player mistakes and new players confusions. Just I let you know one thing, if they would be nice with player so they will do everything that players get less confusions. I spend money and I feel like I was ripped by my confusion and I didn’t get description when I was choosing reward.

Guildwars 1 =/= Guildwars 2.

That’s like saying OH, THIS JEEP LOOKS SIMILAR TO THIS HUMMER OH NO THEYRE DIFFERENT AND I CAN’T DRIVE THE HUMMER BECAUSE I CAN’T FOR W/E REASON AND I BOUGHT IT WITHOUT ASKING ABOUT THE SPECS. It wouldn’t work in real life. Ignorance isn’t an excuse.

The armour was the same name, but the looks for each profession were completely different.

And as I said above, while it can be confusing for a completely new player who doesn’t know what armour class their profession is, if you don’t research the product you’re buying, you can’t blame anyone else for that. Saying it worked this way in a different game so I assumed it would work the same way really isn’t much of an excuse.

What I would suggest you do is put in a support ticket and 1) ask for an exchange for the right armour, 2) ask for a gem refund or 3) keep it in case you level a heavy armour profession.

Costumes in Guild Wars 1 are like town clothes in Guild Wars 2. Like costumes in Guild Wars 1, you can use town clothes on any character.

Guild Wars 1 didn’t have cosmetic skins at all.

I just wanted that dev team get attention in some situation. For me is a small money, but for others it is big money. If they want that some one will spend money for game, so better describe items before you chose reward. When less confusion so player are more happy ;-)

I don’t believe that ticket will help. So I don’t want even to try.When game is big, so less support players get.

Robotukas did not purchase primeval armour from the BLTC.

Robotukas received the set of armour after buying the heroic edition of Guild Wars 2 and selecting primeval armour as the legacy choice. Robotukas is asking why the suit of legacy armour you receive from this heroic edition does not mention what armour class it is for before it is accepted.

You should not have to check the gem store to simply see what class of armour you are receiving. Especially considering new players to the game will be presented with this the instant they log in.

You know, I was wondering what the title had to do with anything. I didn’t realise that the Heroic Edition come with a set of Gemstore armour as well.

My apologies OP.

If hovering over the armour really doesn’t tell you what armour class it’s used for, I’d still put the support ticket in to see if you can change your choice.

Failing that and the armour is account bound, save it for a heavy armour class.

Help, I chose the wrong package for Heroic Edition, my character is a necromancer. I thought all packages would work so I chose the first one, turned out it was for other classes, what should I do?
