Guild Wars 2

Since our rifle abilities are more ‘shotgun-like’ than ‘rifle-like’ wouldnt it be great if we could get some shotgun type skins for our rifles?

We have blunderbuss skins

A blunderbus is not a shotgun. While I will concede that it is a precursor of one, it is not the same thing. Also those skins are very undetailed and crude looking. Is it wrong to want a nice shotgun skin? Am I the only one who has thought to want one?

Pact Shotgun works.

I wouldn’t say ‘wrong’ but i think the crude look may be intentional.

Since your basic shotgun looks very similar to your basic rifle, I have no trouble using most of the non-predator (or Whispers) rifles as a shotgun. If you want two barrels and are okay with a vertical arrangement, the bandit rifle or invader’s rifle are both pretty good.

i would personally like an over and under shotgun skin that looks more like something an engineer would use. something clean and stylized.

I would love to play with something like that! It would make using the blunderbuss shot skill much more satisfying

Ogre rifle actually looks kinda like that.

Norn rifle, pirate rifle, antique musket are all boom stick style rifles.

This is basically exactly what I was thinking of. I would even /pay/ to get this skin.

Dual barrels would be nice i agree /nod

I would love to see a good old fashioned double barreled shotgun. It would be even cooler if they had a standing animation of the character breaking it open and putting shells in (not likely, but we can wish right :P ).

Ogre rifle is very shotgunny.

I’m using the Avenger/Advent Guard (Charr racial t3 skin). It’s got a big barrel, and a bayonet.

i like the guild skin a lot actually. looks a lot like the model 1887. however i think shotgun should be a weapon type unto itself. in my experience eng is one of the most bugged class so …it needs some kind of buff.
