After seeing lots of different sets of weapons I ask myself ‘what the hell has happened with GW1 designers’. I’ll explain why.

In GW1 even if I look at common weapon skin I feel it’s ‘polished’, shaped with care of the final design. Right now the GW2 weapons seem to lack this ‘polish’ which tells us how detail the work of artists and graphics was (this is about the dungeon weapons mostly). I play with all the graphic options set to high so the chance I’m missing something is quite low.
Maybe it’s hard to understand what exactly I mean. The skins are rough, they miss this ‘something’ what catches the eye. Some of them are nice and have potential if they were tweaked a bit.

Having weapons dyeable would also be nice (for example I like the nightmare weapons design but I hate this pinkish color).

I would really love to see some skins from the GW1, not necessarly the rarest ones (for example my beloved mursaat hornbow).
