Guild Wars 2

There should be lightsabers and the force in GW2. Asura inventing some new gadgets and we get some crazy lab where people get the force and also able to wield lightsabers.

Agreed. They should also incorporate the fact that Zhaitan is your father into the story.

yea…of course… and the inquest is the dark side

lightsabers.. super adventure box duh

and someone confirmed that the sab will be back!!
well.. we dont know when..
(i hope be4 2020halloween)
but yeah those skins do come pretty close to light sabers

That would be amazingu!

Yea, and we need siege battles in Space.

Like in E V E Online

This is not the game you are looking for /JediHandWave

(( very tongue in cheek with that, I promise ))

While we’re at it we can add:

Weekly dungeon lock outs.

A monthly subscription, which you could pay for with in game gold.

Premium features that are only available if you either a) bought the collectors edition and/or b)use actual money for your monthly subscription fee.

God no. No more immersion breakers, please.

God no. No more immersion breakers, please.

But Jedis always wear fuzzy Quaggan backpacks!

Technically we already have lightsabers and the force. They’re just called swords and magic. :P

Duke Blackrose.4981:

I find your lack of faith disturbing. It will come.

Do you not believe our Soon™?
Do you not feel Excited™?
Do you not know that “Nothing is off the table”, that “We have no timeframe”, and “I cannot go into details”?
Do you not know that…. wait what are we talking about again?

The force would be confusing for the new players.

Just wait for gw3…

Battle droid: “Halt. Desist. You—will—be—termina—(bzzzt) Reset. Good—day, citizen. Carry—on.”

We have Lightsabers and Force already…

We call them Mesmers.

They apply illusionary beam like blades on their swords.

And they’re capable of mind control.

:P

Ah yes, but our mind control has been severely nerfed since GW1.

All those flashy lights mesmers make are illusions and mass suggestions.

Unfortunately no one is immune to it, so pretty much everyone sees them, if it’s directed at them.

What about the vehicle combat conspicuously missing from this game? Spaceships included of course.

Even structures aren’t immune to it.

I strongly believe that the force is caused by a parasitical infection that consumes the internal magical energies of those infected.

These microorganisms reproduce by causing the death of those infected. Natural deaths do the job, but it seems that violent deaths work better.

They do so by forcing a small group of those infected to become aggressive and murderous towards other people, and keeping another group fighting against them. They will even give them powers they can use to cause chaos, fueled by the magical energies they steal from their host bodies.

While keeping those sides fooled into fighting each other, these creatures get lots of friendly fire and collateral damage for their benefit.

Once dead, those with a greater density of the infection are simulated by these creatures in the form of ‘ghosts’ that instill even more violence and perpetuate the cycle.

Someone should develop a vaccine that kills the infestation, allowing people to keep their magical energy and use it on their own.

As for anything even remotely similar to a light saber, elementalists should be able to use torches like that. Equip the toch as main hand weapon, and when wielder, the attunement aura from the elementalist’s wrists extends towards the torch and forms a flaming blade. Among the skills usable by an elementalist with this weapon would be skills named Mark of Rodgort, Rodgort’s Invocation, Frostfire Edge, Plasma Blade and Obsidian Flame.

It’s possible to have “lightsabers” and not be immersion breaking, as a long as they fit the setting. :p

Lightsabers? No!

I’d love to drive (or attempt to) a M35 Mako on GW2! Need that!

PREPARE-TO-DON-THE-BEHIND-HAT

new engineer weapons confirmed: sword & greatsword

Heh, are you TRYING to get ArenaNet sued? :P

A fair warning: one mention of midi-chlorians and the world shall burn.

LOL I’m only going to +1 because of my love for Star Wars.

When I think of light sabers in GW2 I think of chaos weapon skins and the super adventure box skins – the sword and greatsword specifically.

Would be nice if we could colour our chaos weapon skins though – like in GW1, so that it truly looks like a light saber with all those colourful options.

Asmodeus.5782:

But you just—world burns

On a serious note if you want light/energy/photon type weapons: glyphic, dark asuran (teh dark side red), and peacemaker (Mace Windu purple) are your best bets.

The bladed weapons tend to be very sci-fi, the edges tipped in pure energy. If you want more elemental/force/photon styles:

The tempest set is pure wind.

The chaos weapons are pure energy, period.

The ley line weapons are stone soaked in the worlds natural magical energy currents.

The game has a lot of weapons to that end.

:O

How could I forget those? I use the scepter on my ele.

Basaltface.2786:

yea…of course… and the inquest is the dark side

Have you been asleep for a thousand years? The Inquest truly is the dark side

If the draw effect of the fiery dragon sword was changed si that it activated on draw rather than be on all the time that would be close

On the other hand, star wars universe + gw2 combat and i’m sold!

Nothing bad about high-tech <3
