Suggestion: Custom Class Particle effects
Would be nice to get different colours. Main reason I don’t play mesmer is because the particle effects are incredibly obnoxious. I’d definitely pay for something like this
I LOVE the purple butterflies on my Mesmer, but I have to admit that I made her a female Human purely because I thought having a male Charr or Norn with them would be too silly. I wouldn’t object to customisable particle effects, but I think it’s a low priority; since GW1, Mesmers have always been about purple sparkly effects.
I wouldn’t mind different shades of the primary colors each class uses.
But I wouldn’t want them to completely change the base color of each class (like your suggestion of Guardians getting gold). I feel that the colors play into part of the identity of each class, and they should remain somewhat consistent to keep that identity in-tact.
@ Electro. Yeah I see how to change the colors completely could do that. a more white-blue would be pretty too =)
I’d be very interested in such things. I won’t get my hopes up though. They seem very excited about themselves about making an Esport out of GW2, and there’ll invariably be howlermonkeys bawling about players needing their powers to be telegraphed in uniform, recognizable fashions.
It won’t be relevant whining since any and all appearance stuff can be wiped out and normalized (like it already is) in pvp settings, but if they do it, the crying will happen.
I don’t imagine they’ll do it irrespective.
I wouldnt mind laying down a coupla euros for some diffirent particle effects. Games like Champions online have it.
A mesmer with dark shatter effects would be nice and instead of butterflies, perhaps crows or crawly bugs. You know, bring that Mask of Dread into play.
crows or sometype of bird sounds like a good less-girly alternative for mesmers
