Guild Wars 2

Why are we removing armor styles from the game?
If we were adding new armor styles to the game then I could understand that.
But I don’t see new armor styles appearing in the Wiki. Are we not keeping the Wiki up to date, or are there some new skins with HoT?

But Phalanx and Viper were removed from the Gem Store and I don’t see any crafted or other ways to get those styles. Those styles were very nice to have attractive female heavy and medium armor styles. Someone at AN got a prudish streak? No short skirts in the game? Earth to AN: that’s not gonna sell. Take a look at Tera and LoL etc etc etc.
So what’s the story. How about some Mystic Forge recipe for these skins if the Gem Store is full. BTW, you can’t save client disk space by removing these of course, so I really don’t get why skins are ever “removed” from the game so that new players can no longer get them. WintersDay costumes not available in Summer? Ok I get that. But some nice armor skins that were available? Removed. I don’t get that.

What’s gives?

they come back. they are only currently not available. try checking back during sales around holidays and anniversary.

They aren’t removed as in “never coming back”. They were removed and will return periodically to the gem store. The reason why is to keep the items “fresh” and encourage people to impulse buy them when they return. If they are sitting there month after month, year after year, people put off buying them because they can always buy them “tomorrow”.

K. I’ll let me new friend know to watch for them.
