Guild Wars 2

Why is so much of the medium chest armor this >< close to being actually cool. Most of the time there is one thing that is off about it. As an example the Carapase Jerkin with that thing under the neck. Is that supposed to be the underwater breathing apparatus when not in use, a feed bag for snacks while your fighting or a place for you to get a hit off those “special” herbs?

The person who designs armor for GW2 is a sadist who takes pleasure in tormenting people with bad fashion and sabotaging his workplace. It’s the one last major flaw in GW2. If they replaced him and hired someone with actual fashion sense then GW2 would become a perfect game and probably skyrocket to the #1 slot in online game popularity; completely beating CS:GO, PUB and Dota2.

The odd thing is that it’s usually the medium armor that is so limiting. I would use that chest armor in the photo with my Norn ranger but that feed bag bugs me visually. I wish I could remove it.

Armor for other classes seems to be less off an issue. I usually use the Shadow Assassin Outfit to cover bad armor but even it has something that bugs me. With humans and Norn it has this bow in the back that is an eye sour and clips back items. It needs to be moved to the front and replaced with just a tight knot with the two ends hanging down.

When it comes to outfits I wish they had the option to use the underlying headpiece skin rather than the outfit skin. I see headpiece skins that would look great with outfits but we can’t. A good example is the Lunatic Guard Outfit would look great with the Hellfire Warhelm. Nearly all the outfits would look good with glowing eyes or such.

I’ve always wished they’d let us at least let us do that… use any head skin with any outfit since clipping issues would never exist with those parts. GW1 allowed it. Also it would be cool if outfit head skins could be put on armor as well. For example; I really love the mask on the Charr chef outfit and wanted to wear it with his normal armor. (which is T3 racial chest piece one of the few without buttcapes… wish it was for all races)
