Guild Wars 2

I’d love to see profession specific outfits that are unlocked via achievements in game. I can already put a cloth robe on my Warrior or put tanky metal armor onto my Ele via outfits from gem store or black lion chests. Given that they did this I’d like to see outfits that are unlocked through gameplay that are profession themed.

I think it’d raise the chance of people buying new outfits if they already have ones they can try and it’d be a nice visual marker of achievement for players aside from titles.

I’m thinking warriors get something vicious and dark metal-like, elementalists get something made from fire/ice/stone/lightning, Guardians get a paladin themed lighter armorset with glowing runes similar to those on the shoulders you can pick in character creation etc etc.

Double points if they were dynamic ie ele outfit on an ele changes material from fire to lightning depending on your dominant/current attunement. Thief outfit becomes surrounded by shadowy effects when they stealth etc.

It would be another visual way to show off achievements like titles and it’d be fun. Shouldn’t effect the whole visual shorthand for classes silhouette thing since I can wreck that anyway?

What do you think?

I like the idea of questing for specific skins as opposed to buying or crafting them.

There are already racial specific armors so the precedent is set.
