Guild Wars 2

Hello everyone! I just have a quick question about the total makeover kit. There are a few things I want to tweak about my character (mostly height), but I wanted to make sure before I used a kit: does your character show up in the creation screen looking exactly as they do when you use the kit? That is, they aren’t auto-reset to default or anything, are they? I’m afraid to use the kit because I don’t want to completely remake my character from memory just to change his height! I really hope I can just go in and tweak a few things about him. :>

I can confirm that you have your current look and can tweak that. I used a kit to change my Sylvari’s leaf style and glow color, didn’t have to touch anything else. Though there’s a bug where even with the lightbulb off your vari won’t glow — I had to use an empty slot to quickly make a vari to check the name of the glow color I wanted.

I got one just to change my characters size, he was a huge Norn and was a pain to use when jumping because of the view. I had some new armour that shows more skin so I changed his tatoos also. He’s just a skinny little guy with new ink now.

I find it sad how you can change your gender, but not the name. Not really a total make over then, is it…?

Thank you so much for all the responses! :> Awesome, so now I can use the kit without worries.

@ Oglaf: It really would be nice if you could. >: I don’t really want to change any of my own names right now, but I have no doubt that I’d like to in the future. I have a feeling they’ll be making another kit somewhere down the line, probably for names/race/class, or at least for names/class. The story might get messed up if you changed your race, but then, maybe it wouldn’t be too difficult to just switch you to the corresponding race’s story at the same level you’re at?

Well, I got a really masculine name for my Norn Warrior. So even if I wanted to utilize the gender change, I couldn’t do so because it would be so… wrong. I’m pretty sure other people are in the same situation.
