Guild Wars 2

I saw some complaints about glider skins.

I’d like to propose an invisible glider so it looks like my toon just supermanned themselves off a cliff.

+1 if you think it would be hilarious.

Including the cape?

I’m surprised just how much I like that idea!

the more I think about it, the more I like it

@Carighan
That would be awesome xD

If no cape, then at least make the toon flail his/her arms and legs around for that cartoon comedy effect.

I personally want no cape. Just the character model going face and hands first. Maybe vote beforehand on whether they fly arms out like they’re role playing a plane or hands front like they’re superman.

Arms out wide and legs still running with Aviator hat and glasses, just like with that Aviator memory thingy! While ur char is making proppeler noises!

Great idea! No glider, no cape but can I get a skin that makes me look like I’m wearing a wingsuit? Now this is what gliding should feel like:

WARNING: Those scared of heights should not look

ETA: those links don’t seem to work well when clicked into via these forums – if you want to see what I’m banging on about, search “wingsuit” in YouTube.

I actually had a situation a few days ago, where I got on a map with my charr and immediately jumped off a cliff to glide (charrs stretch their arms forward while gliding, for those who don’t know), while not all models were loaded yet.

So the glider was invisible and my charr was gliding around like superman.
I lol’ed

We should have capes and cloaks for back pieces already! Omgosh -cries a little inside-

An invisible glider would totally kitten with me since I’d think that my graphics were lagging every time someone with this flew past me.

As for a cape glider, I think that would be pretty awesome, lol.

I asked for this too!!

Charr female already glides with hands and claws forward.

Speaking of low-intrusive gliders, I really like Shattered Bloodstone, the only one I’ve bought. There’re special effects, but you can clearly see character model.

Celestial rooster is a bit silly, but also non-intrusive.

In lieu of an invisible glider, quaff a quaggan tonic and glide whilst transformed. Hilarious. Not entirely practical all the time, certainly not indicative of a "super" persona, but worth a giggle as it truffle-shuffles its way to its destination. :-D

Celestial rooster is fun, but i would have prefered chickenado glider

I’d love this.

Sometimes if you start gliding while experiencing a bit of lag or while the area is still loading the glider doesn’t appear and it looks like your character is just flying on their own.

I’d love to be able to do that all the time.

Just use the holographic glider. Depending on how you dye it, it’s almost not there.
