Forever a supporter of more male skimpy armor
Scientific Harpoon Gun/Spear/Trident?
I thought most of the BLTC skins didn’t have underwater weapons.
They stopped making underwater weapons for the BLTC some sets back.
Be careful what you ask for

I know chaos, dreamthistle, aetherized, and tormented have them for sure, but yeah I just looked at other skins and you’re right. Where are they all? :-(

Maybe they are de-emphasizing underwater combat. I bet the new areas don’t have any large bodies of water.

I love under water combat and in World vs world the water has saved me many times.

This.
They stopped releasing underwater skins a while back.
Think about it; there’s no proper good underwater places to fight anyway. It just doesn’t see use. Also because no one wants to fork out more gold/tickets to finish their black lion collections just for some measly underwater weapon skins that will rarely see use.
They even removed water from some parts of the game… probably due to the NPE being too confusing. I can’t source this but a lot of forum goers went and found the places (I think all the starter zones had water taken out?) so it may just be a coincidence. Ah well.

No underwater areas were taken away from starter zones. However there was a pvp map taken out and wvw areas adjusted. This was primarily because underwater combat is not balanced and instead of balancing it they took it out for the most part. I believe there is a old dev post somewhere explaining this but that is at least a year old

They didn’t take out the water in the low level areas. What they took out was most red mobs and made the rest yellow mobs. For example, in the Norn starter area by the bear shrine all the skelk in the water that used to be hostile are now all neutral.
They also no longer give you a starting underwater weapon at character creation and you don’t get underwater skills till later.

So why not bring underwater weapons to land? Why keep them underwater only? Spear would have made for a much better model option for Revenant’s Melee staff… Now the HoT staff skins have a bunch of Melee oriented skins, when we already had such a thing with Spears and some of the Trident skins….
