Guild Wars 2

Ele, even since gw1 was always one of my fav professions.

I was a little sad when the trait change happened, as it took away a bit of my tankiness as I was trailed into 4 categories.

But anyways, I play a Slyvari Ele in gw2 and I love her to death. She’s my little dress-up Barbie. I was hoping to see Sylvari with Long Bow as an option or Great Sword. I know they have them as “conjure weapons” but with those you can’t customize them or get the legendary of them.

So here’s my 2 part idea plan:

1. Allow the Ele to use the Long Bow (because I love the Kudzu’s flower footprints)

OR

2. Allow Legendary Footprints to be interchangeable similar to the stat changes on a legendary at will. So, example: Lets say my Ele has the Bifrost but the flower footprint suits her better as a Sylvari, on the actual legendary (not a skinning) I could open up it’s info in the equipment window and pick a different footprint. But it can be set up 1 of 2 ways.

Either, 1: gain access to all footprints upon legendary unlock OR, 2: Similar to the library with skins, you gain access to any legendary footprints you’ve unlocked.

So, say I’ve unlocked Bifrost and Quip, but not Kudzu. I’d only have access to the footprints of Bifrost with the rainbows, and Quip with the confetti, but not Kudzu as I haven’t unlocked it yet on my account.

This ideas would not only make legendries more desirable, but make the painful aspect of collecting them more fun.

Just some ideas to think about.

Legendaries should remain unique. Mixing things up by unlocking footprints for all other collected legendaries would take away their individuality.

I agree with cursE, effects of legendaries should be tied to the actual weapons.

I also think that eles should be asking for new weapons added to the class for their functionality, not looks.

In addition to what the above two said, eles should be getting a new weapon based on what will add the most diversity to the class, not because one person likes the footprints from one specific weapon…….

Well, hence why I think footprints should be interchangeable.

I was hoping this thread would be about a weapon that changes looks depending on the Ele’s current attunement. /sadface
