Guild Wars 2

What items do you think the 3 profession armor choice will be? Maybe a see no evil hear no evil speak no evil type choice?

we already have 3 datamined blindfolds, so they’ll probably be the options.

also, “see no evil hear no evil speak no evil” is about turning a blind eye (ba-dum tsh) on bad things, whereas the revenant seems to be more a case of “true sight” (going by rits and the awfully common trope of blind people being practically demigods that didn’t need eyes anyway)

Really? Well I’m off to find what else was data mined. Thanks

What’s the Reverent? Is that the Revenant’s specialization? :O

kidding lol…

well i knew of 2 blindfolds… the “leather” one with the rune and the metal one with the spikes… hows the 3rd one looking? Any pics?

Actually that’s not rxactly like that. That’s just the meaning that people came up with in the west, quite different from the original one.

With this said, tho i would like the idea, i doubt the revenant would have that as it’s choice.

It’s frequently the case that seers of the future have some other drawback. The most common way to do that is depicting sight through the third eye by blinding the other two. This might relate back to why the revenants are always blind. Of course, the one disappointment with be the first helmet upgrade will totally remove the blindfold unless there’s some special tweak made for them.

there are two leather blindfolds, with different runes on them. one of them rytlock wears, the other was datamined alongside the spiked one.

I hope Blindfolds are revenant ONLY
and i hope they’re mandatory

both very very unlikely

since you can transmute ANY other profession specific gear to other classes and it has never been mandatory

You will have to choose between Blindfold, a copy of 50 shades of grey and a G*mp suit.
(lol that censor)

It’s so boring when you have to press a character to see which profession it is. There’s no distinction.

So you want a game all about vanity to pigeonhole classes into specific gear? Yeah, that’ll go over well. If you pay attention it is very obvious who is what class once combat starts.

Revenant seems to be a prophet. The truth within sees justice and every rightful decision in the world.

Guards burn blue most of the time.
Wars have very clear skill animations.
Mesmer are fabilous.
Eles are elementy.
Necros have darkgreen mist or stay way back to place staff aoes.
Turrets are very annoying.
Ranger have pets.
Thieves you will not see in ti…

How does having to look at an icon detract from the aesthetics of a character’s appearance? If they look good then they look good, things like profession, stats, rarity, etc. are completely irrelevant to that.

If you mean you want to identify enemies in PvP/WvW by appearance alone then that’s not “boring”, it’s “inconvenient”.

good to know to have most likely 3 different blindfolds available. Ill most likely just start my rev over 3 times to unlock em all for later

have you even seen the amount of rangers out there that use the thief hood?
