Guild Wars 2

Okay, this game has a wonderful feature built into the sPvP lobby that allows you to build almost any build you want and test it out before committing.

…almost any build.

Please, A-net. Give us a place where we can test out ANY and ALL possible build combinations available. No concerns about what’s PvP legal or whatever.

This would allow us to say, test out Trailblazer builds or see how Nomad’s fairs with tanking.
It’s not asking for much. Some test dummies to hit, perhaps an arena to test fight friends in. You can’t keep any of the gear you test, you just get to try it out before committing HUNDREDS of gold to the build, only to discover after that you might really hate it. PLEASE.

You mean something like this?

Aerodome doesn’t go far enough.

If the Aerodome isn’t good enough, describe what you feel it lacks. More details are always better, and it helps others to understand exactly what you’re asking for rather than blind guessing.

Fair enough, though I thought I made it clear in the OP.
What I’m referring to is an area (like the Guild Hall Arena perhaps) giving -COMPLETE- control over fake items, allowing you to equip, infuse, and play with, any available armor and weapon item in the game. You can’t remove them from the area and any builds you make in there are immediately reverted to your original build once you leave. You can test these builds against friends or bots.
Think similar to what you can do in the sPvP lobby, only without them patching out sets of stats for nerfs.

The point would be to allow you to test out anything in the game before you commit to getting it. You can’t really do that fully in sPvP, and you REALLY can’t do it in the Aerodome.

Hello !

I’ve been asking for the same, so I feel the urge to support your demand.

Aerodrome is nice because it has :

• Nice landscape
• Possibility to summon selected enemies
• Possibility to add environmental effects.

Yet aerodrome lacks the possibility to freely select gear and stats. The idea isn’t to test the build you’re currently running, but the build you’re thinking for the future, without the need to craft or buy anything.
