Guild Wars 2

First off, the next patch looks great! There have also been a lot of great points raised and actions taken (thank goodness for no perplexity). In a more light-hearted tone, I do have one question now that runes are no longer applied to armor pieces in pvp:

Will we now be able to wear no clothes and still get the 6 rune effects?

I can see a lot of trolls doing this after the upcoming patch, and facing no detriment as runes are no longer “on” the armor pieces. It will also be hilarious when viewing your tourneys “The commandos vs. the freeballers”

well, if the base armor stats (light medium heavy) are no longer tied to the armor pieces themselves then yeah i guess we can really fight naked in sPvP without additional stats handicaps.

next step, they need to introduce various undergarments into the gem store then it would be golden!

1) If you remove your armor, you will lower your defense.
2) Because new characters may not have helm, glove, or shoulder pieces, any already hide-able armor slot will always be added into your defense even if you don’t have one equipped.

TY for the response, Evan! Have a great night!

So yeah.. Erm… Helm gloves and shoulder town cloths in a Spvp still on the radar then? ^^

This would have ben the only good part of the new patch
