Guild Wars 2

I’m sure this has been mentioned 1000xs already, but can you guys PLEASE fix the halo? Its really annoying having to constantly put it back on when you change maps or die. Food buffs stay on no problem, why can’t the halo?

Would be nice if it stayed on like food until double clicked again.

Since medium armor will be forever awful on males I use Dragon Costume, which unfortunately doesn’t allow hats so I use the Demon Horns Potion as my Pseudo-Hat. It does get irritating having to constantly reactivate it.

Just compare the Guild Wars 2 version with the Guild Wars 1 version, and weep.
Guild Wars 1 version:
Brighter, not pale and semi transparent
Dripping sparks animation. The sparks trail behind you as you run.
Not covered up by the nameplate so others can’t see it
Permanently on or off according to toggle. Can change maps, etc..

Why ANet? Why did you take the wonderful halo from Guild Wars 1 and water it down to this pale imitation?

Wow that is so much better! Yeah WHY ANET WHY!!! Anyway, I just think after all we did to get that thing the least they could do is fix it so we can proudly display it.

On that note, the Demon Horns in GW1 are also better than both the Selfless Potion Horns and the Halloween Horns. Alas, many developers admittedly never played or even looked at GW1 so they wouldn’t know what to do with such things. For now I’d just want the potions to stay permanent for the duration, like food does, unless double clicked again. That would be easier for them to accomplish.

I wanna start a guild with people who have the halos, this is one of the main reasons why I want this to happen!

I have some of the graphics options turned down to run at 60fps and the Halo doesn’t even sparkle for me. It’s just a pale see-through plastic band floating over my head

I like the new one; it’s there, but not in your face about how I helped Lion’s Arch residents. “Oh, lookit that neat guy”, not “DON’T TAKE YOUR EYES OFF ME”.

Well getting the kitten thing was no pleasure cruise, so it should stand out a bit more. just saying. And it should be a Permanent toggle. It feels like a cheap gimmick right now. “Whoa I got a halo i can flash once n a while. Yippee spent like 2 weeks grinding for it.”

When you are standing next to the Mystic Forge it’s invisible. So it’s got that going for it.
