Guild Wars 2

I love the war bringer and the cape/cloak effects on the legendary back piece. Can we all agree that Anet has the potential to add more cloak like items , even Gem store items to the game? Cause i’m really dying to get one! Even guild made cloaks that show guild logos. Or even cloaks that wrap around the neck and drape down. I’m sure you guys can do it ! Patiently waiting ! Been playing since 2012 ! its already 2017 what are you guys waiting for ? ! #HYPETRAIN

I really hope so!

I would be totally fine with a 2 stripe mantle like that one.
Please Anet!??

I thought it just had a couple of long red strips of cloth hanging off each side? Each side of a really huge object, at that, so they hang well away from the body.

ANet’s been able to do rippling ribbon effects for some time. I don’t see how this backpack really counts as a cloak. To me a cloak has the ability to wrap around in front of you — it’s made to cover against cold and/or precipitation, even if it gets fancied up like the image below.

I definitely don’t have the same definition of “cloak” as you do.

This a really great idea as cloaks were in GW1 as guild identifiers. What I would also like to see as it sort of pertains to this would be the release of classic GW1 armor like platemail armor or FoW as something that can be obtained in game or bought in store.

It’s not a cloak. Gw2 devs have stated time and time again that they are unable to add cloaks to the game due to the limitations of the way they implemented character models and the plethora of clipping issues it would derive from them. Imagine the cloak on a Charr. It would take them months to figure out how to make it work and i’m not sure they can at all at this point or they would have by now. Cloaks will never be in the game.
