Guild Wars 2

Hey all,

When ANet made changes to legendaries about a month back, they added in a bowstring for Kudzu. Not a legendary bowstring, not a cool bowstring…just..a bowstring. And it looks horrible.

I’m posting this here because I figure more Rangers have Kudzu than any other class, and I know you all are feeling the same pain I am looking at the eyesore that is the bowstring on Kudzu. Devs, PLEASE make a simple change to this, either get rid of this ugly bowstring or make it mesh with Kudzu as a whole. Because right now, it’s awful, and it takes away from the legendary feel of Kudzu.

I agree that it looks bad, and i`d appreciate if it was removed or if it was a thinner string made of light (to look more magical).

I have mixed feelings about any more changes to it (having owned it since very early on). I think the end-to-end string now is better than the previously incomplete floating string. I do see your point, and while it would certainly be nice to have visible attachment points, similar to The Dreamer’s perhaps, i wouldn’t go as far as saying it takes away from it’s legendary feel. On the other hand though, anything else more flashy than the muted string (as is now) would severely detract from the balanced look of the bow itself, IMO. It’s just difficult, as the model itself doesn’t lend to actual attachment points.. perhaps maybe a sort of light-based string similar the Dreamthistle’s disappearing particles, but less bright & shiny? Or even a pulsing gold thread to match the Nymph’s highlights.

Personally, though i’m fine with it as is. There’s other legendaries that have more pressing issues (such as bugged or no effects) than a simple bowstring graphic.
