Guild Wars 2

Even with the addition of a ton of new skins most staff ones simply don’t look the part. It also means ‘regular’ staff users wouldn’t be starved of skins designed specifically for a more appropriate look (such as the one Rytlock uses in the trailer). This would work similar to racial armour in that once a spear skin has been applied any non-melee staff profession wouldn’t be able to equip it until the skin has been changed.

I know it’s a minor thing but there are a lot of cool UW skins that we don’t get to enjoy much and would make a good compromise for the lack of pole-arms.

I’m not sure what good a pear skin would be in combat, its not even that thick or solid. :P

But anyway, no. I don’t want this to happen, because it basically removes any chance of ever having proper spears on land (assuming there’s a chance for it to happen in the first place). Plus, I’m just against copy-pasting skins to other weapons in general as it feels lazy and takes away the uniqueness of the skins.

Pear skin for staff? Wut? That’s obviously much better as an engie bomb skin.

I wholeheartedly support the pear-bomb movement.

Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase, “and then everything went pear shaped.”

Lol…I thought it was going to be Pearl skins.

Silly me!

throw enough and maybe mordremoth will just fall over

New “fruit themed” hobo-sack confirmed!

Not sure, but I think that’s an in-game screenshot that he superimposed a pear on (I think that’s in Diessa Plateau).

I don’t think you want to put pear skins on your staff. They would eventually rot and get gross and sticky. If you must have a fruit skin, perhaps a pomegranate.

Rot is Rizen’s middle name. So it works for Melee Staff skin for Revenant theme,,,

How about a coconut instead? Probably a little bit better for weaponizing anyway.

Norn Females have those already.

Coconuts would be a solid option, I don’t think we’re limited to fruit. Maybe the nutritional value of pear skins was a consideration though?

I, for one, welcome our new Pear overlords.

Rick Ross would completely agree with pear skins. Lets do it.

let’s think about this realistically…

if your staff was the shape of a pear (and still the same height), how could you hold it in one hand? you’d have to grip it with a pear hug… and then also probably turn it upside down to be able to carry it. and then, how would you see where you’re going? and forget about a dodge roll, your pear would roll you over and roll away, leaving you weaponless.
