Guild Wars 2

I was thinking maybe instead of paying that really steep price for level 3 cultural gear when it sucks anyway (stat-wise) we could instead purchase it as a skin used in the way the zenith weapons are? Edited it to make what I meant clearer.

then what would be the point in getting the title for it? if you payed that much money for the skin instead of the rare item, that’d be better imo, if it was free, there’d be no point to them

But then anet can’t sell you transmutation stones!

better ideas add 2 more tiers one exotic one ascended This would give even greater diversity in looks for cultural armors

i do find the price a bit to high, the chest wear should be no more then 5 gold.
i can get rare armor with better armor rate for just 1 gold, sometimes even around 80 silver.

i don’t mind the stats that much, it’s just way to expensive.

No, you misunderstand. I meant you still buy the skins, but they’re stored in the way the Zenith skins are.

I wouldn`t mind if they had a gemshop item that was only a dollar or two that would convert an existing armor skin into your own pve locker. Kind of like how they have the locker in the heart of the mists, you could access it through your hero panel.

I have the cultural set too on my character along with a mixed set I made. I`d like to be able to switch between looks and yet still retain the same stats on the armor.

Cultural Tier 3 is a symbol that tells people you have a lot of gold, or you work hard towards things you want. Isn’t that a good thing?

it also tells ppl you love to farm and have time for it, casuals like me will never get cultural armor because it’s way to expensive and the stats are simply not worth it.

You know when I first farmed my set at release I thought the same way and it ook months to get the gold to finish my set. But that was because I wasn`t aware of to earn coin other then getting it from what I killed in the open world. Do a few dungeon runs a week and you`ll have the gold to get your set in no time. You get a gold for finishing a dungeon and you get drops that you can salvage and sell. It won`t take you long believe me. A few weeks maybe.

and there is the problem, i don’t like dungeons for the simple reason that most ppl there like to take charge despite my leadership skills, they keep on screwing up but never stay civil.
so instead of complaining about it i just ignore dungeons entirely, dungeons should be optional anyway and not so time consuming.

Just by playing the game normally you’ll get the gold for it . Even if you never did a boss event in your life you could still make it as long as you know how to save properly .

You’re also missing the point. I’m not suggesting they reduce the cost. It can still be your “symbol”, I just think it would be better if the pieces were unlocked as skins rather than pieces of gear.

But then anet wouldn’t be able to sell you transmutation stones, and what’s better? Happy players or money?
