Guild Wars 2

It seems we’re really limited on our choices for legendaries and who ever was in charge of designing them seems to have an acute hatred for range users over melee.

Shortbow super happy butterfly unicorn rainbows go!
Longbow tree hugger supreme!
Pistol party poppers!

Why would you ever make a legendary look like this? It only further discourages people from obtaining them. As if the grind for them wasn’t enough.

Will there ever be more choices for legendary skins in future that is aesthetically appealing to more people?

Why is there 3 GS legendary skins and only 1 each for every other weapons? That doesn’t seem right..

Because looks are subjective. You may not like how the current Legendaries look, meanwhile others do. ArenaNet is never going to be able to make something that would please everyone. Even if there were 5 kinds of Legendary bows, I’m sure someone would complain that none of them look good.

LoL I had to see what the bronie short bow looked like, now I might make a character called bronie. Make him all rainbow and pink and equip that.

Well yea, but if you had 5 kinds of Legendary bows, you’ll have a significantly smaller chance that you won’t like anything.

That absolutely true, but lets pretend that just 60% of players are male playing this. Why automatically without a thought reject 60% of your customers with a rainbow pony design?

The designers ADORE Greatswords. There’s even 2 of them. There’s not even 2 daggers and it’s a dual weapon. They made a few joke weapons which is fine, but there isn’t a serious alternative yet. The pistols are amusing but I wouldn’t want to go through all the trouble for them. Rather have an uber plasma or laser pistol or something.

whats wrong with shooting stars and rainbows

lol wut? your opinion != opinions 60% of players. im a guy and i like brony-ish shortbow.

Don’t forget the staff leaves Rainbows in your wake! (Actually didn’t like Bifrost until I saw the rainbows..lol, still would take a staff version of bolt over it 100% of the time)

Also, melee does have the mace… a disco ball…

I really wish there was a staff that was like Bolt, but change upon attunement, like if you’re in fire attunement, steam or flames swirl around you, in water attunement a mist or water puddles as you walk, earth attunement there’s sand swirling around you and arcane there’d be a pulsing purple aura….of course air = bolt effect…

Just seems elementalist are stuck with more cheerful skins:
Staff: Bifrost = Rainbow colors and leaves rainbows as you move.
Scepter: Meteorlogicus = Colorful planets and Clouds.
I’d love to have bolt on an Elementalist…so fitting…

All legendaries are fine as is, but:

Variety, multiplicity are the two most powerful vehicles of lust.
