Guild Wars 2

I know there are bugs and stuff to fix that are important, but nothing should be given priority over this: the background images for Mesmer trait lines need to be redesigned. I mean seriously… pretty much every other class has unique artwork for each trait line. Mesmers get 5 variations of purple and pink swooshies. It honestly looks like the designers just got lazy/ completely forgot. I really can’t even play my Mesmer right now. Every time I’m having a blast playing her, I remember her drab background artwork and realize everything is pointless. Anet please read this. It’s hard to even sleep at night!

Priority over bugs fixes and balance issues? Heck no. I can’t progress on the story quest even though it’s been ‘fixed’ multiple times. I’d rather they get the game fixed before they think about changing cosmetically. Besides, you don’t even have to look at it when you play. As you level up I understand that you’re constantly upgrading traits, even when in WvW or sPvP you’re constantly changing your builds.

I understand that you don’t like it, there will be others that don’t like it. I honestly don’t care if they changed it or kept it it doesn’t ruin my experience and I didn’t even notice the background image till you pointed it out. Fixing bugs is priority.

Only to find out it was a clone’s cold dead hand, and I’m skipping away merrily, giggling like a loon.

My understanding is that Mesmer class was the last to be added to the game. So it’s entirely possible they just didn’t have time to do it.

It was the last revealed, but definietly not the last added to the game
Mesmer is a signature GW1 profession.

Awwww hell naw I love my mesmer the way she is….errr artwork? Wtk?

Sorry the title threw me off. Haha I have noticed this as well on the trait page I couldn’t help but feel extremely short changed and unloved.

Sorry, I don’t think it’s lazy at all and in fact very much in line with the overall motif and aesthetic of the profession.

Disabled masks showing up in character select screen is a much more serious problem.
