Guild Wars 2

some of the gem shop gathering tools are too animated.. could you make a qol set with just the regular tools.. also,
maybe make a set with a self-pulsing mechanical theme, where the tool does the work and not the character.. like gathering under water, except with a tool..
something similar to a plasma cutter + goggles would be a bonus
it could glow a different color for each type of node

has anyone noticed that the gathering tools and finishers may be too animated for some peoples liking? i think it’s great and all, but i don’t imagine myself on a gathering run and watching the animation over and over again.. in fact, it feels better when i can get from node to node without getting bitten by mobs, i think there is a swiftness booster for that now.. anyway, i’m thinking of getting the new gathering tool but am on the fence about it.. it’d be nice if you can turn off the animations and just have a ‘regular’ un-breakable gathering tool..

also, this goes against what i just said.. but i’m [suggesting] a gathering tool that looks like a plasma cutter.. it’d be neat to have the same tool for all nodes and would let gatherers feel extra efficient.. they can implement different colored flare for each type of node.. it’d also be a bonus if it came with some neat headgear, or optional headgear while gathering..

I agree. They’re getting over the top & just really strange.
I collect them and would eventually like all of my alts to have all 3 types, but the last cpl available, I just couldn’t bring myself to buy.
dat last sickle…. really?
All I want is some more molten/watchwork/chop-it-all/consortium.
Disappointing.
