Guild Wars 2

Suggestion for GW2 Developers: When you massively change a rune-set, GIVE THE PLAYERS THE ABILITY TO SWAP THEIR RUNES FOR SOMETHING ELSE of the same value, so they don’t have to redo their entire armor set….

So…. to give some background behind this suggestion: When I first got my Elementalist going I spent a lot of time, money, and energy into getting two complete sets of armor:
1) A Magic Find set
2) A Power set using the Armageddon Balthazar armor…

So when magic find went away, there went my first set (never recovered back to the MF I had from that one)

Now with this update, the Balthazar Runes swapped from giving power to 100% condition damage… but I don’t spec my character to be focused on condition damage.

So now, I have NO good armor sets any longer that suit my play-style, and have to re-do my entire armor before I’ll have enough power to feel good about my Ele again.

Oh, just looked in the trading post to see what it would cost me to respec my armor with new runes…. going to cost me 23 gold. Thanks guys….

Yeah and with the drop rate what it is, you really have very few options to make that kind of money without doing dungeon runs ad nauseum.
