Guild Wars 2

Next expansion we get capes and mastries tied to the capes to do cool abilities such as shielding attacks and hits from behind do less damage?

They said for soulbeast they didn’t have the tech to make it until now. By next expansion they may finally have capes if they have the tech and could make them not only look great but a function to the game

Wait what? Capes? Did I miss something? Some Guild Chat video or review?

They’re speculating/suggesting an idea. It’s just mis-phrased to sound as fact

Thank you, I am bit tired to notice that.

Oh sorry if it sounded like I said they are coming. I have zero idea. Just curious what people would think about it

Capes are a popular request, but due to Charr models being highly problematic to implement (one dev alluded the other day that if they didn’t exist, things would be much easier for all manor of associated armours). It’s not beyond the realms of possibility though given they have found a way to adjust models to mounts.

I think I’d rather see them just as an accessory though. They don’t strike me as adding anything as a mastery. We already have gliding which would be one significant use. Masteries are being used more and more as a natural or at least thematic fit to the maps/expansion they tie into and capes….well they’re just capes really.
