Guild Wars 2

Haven’t seen any suggestion to this topic so far. So I’d like to suggest this little addition.

Initially I though all the infusion animations were “ultra cool”. But lately I’ve been thinking a lot about replacing them with ordinary ones (that will cost me dearly) for I don’t like the effects anymore. They are either uninteresting at this point or bothering or simply don’t go well with desired character design.

I know you can lower down the setting to basically disable all the infusions but I don’t like this. I mean people got their infusions and want to wear them, that’s fine. I’d like to see their characters the way they design them anyways, but for myself, sometimes I would prefer the infusion not to show up at all. Which either means I have to replace it within my armor or lower the graphics but the infusion will visible to others.

Could we please just add this little check-box to wherever it’s best (either armor part or infusion itself or menu idc..) that would remove the visibility for my own infusions?

I don’t consider it a huge deal and It would be simple method how to solve this “issue”.

You might ask why would anyone want their infusions not to be visible. I come with simple example. Farming +stat infusions within fractals can be bothersome chore. So sometimes person can decide to obtain that infusion in different manner, maybe just to entertain a bit with something different (Adventure box, raid..) all he wants are the stats that come with the infusion. In some cases the fact that he will be glowing, burning, surrounded by boxes is undesired as it may kill the characters intended design (for example).

Please consider this option even thought it might add just a little valuable something to the minority of players.

just remove the infusion using the 24s tool kit from fractals and leave it in the bank?

I support this idea, I’ve stored 2 very useful infusions in the bank because I don’t want the animation effects they give, I’m more practical and realistic when it comes down to design my characters (no angelical or demonic looking toons). So it would be amazing if we could have a check box to allow the players who wants the infusions but not the effects to use them.

You don’t seem to get where the “problem” is. Even though there are other ways to obtain infusions other than fractals, you might not use them because of their “restriction” which comes with the animation (in case you don’t want any). So basically if you get infusion from Gorse you might end up having it in bank which is a shame as it is valuable nevertheless..
