Guild Wars 2

I would love for Chaos Gloves to share the mesmer skin from gw1 where it only covered the hands (not the arms).
This would be a really nice throwback, don’t know how this would work for other races than humans though.

Thoughts?

Wouldn’t work, without a lot of work.

The Guild Wars 1 armor was profession specific. Guild Wars 2 armor isn’t. They’d have to make all the light armor, Necro, Elementalist and Mesmer, have gloves that only cover the hand.

Most light armours already cover the arms resulting in this effect.
(As seen with the trick that used to be done with Radiant Gauntlets to copy the Chaos Gloves look.)

The entire point of the mesmer chaos gloves showing only the “hands” covered by the chaos was to avoid clipping with the old mesmer armours.
Since this won’t happen in GW2 you get the regular chaos gloves skin.
If you want it to cover only the hands, simply wear a top with sleeves!
