I know this isn’t a request forum but there is not a game enhancement request forum so there you go.
One feature that has been ‘greatly’ lacking in GW2 is the ability to easily switch out gear sets.
Example: I want to wear my Ahamid’s armor set for survivability with my Greatbow of the Sunless and Claymore of the Sunless as my weapons along with certain trinkets and a specific aquabreather. However, on my damage set, I want to use my Zojja’s set with Aureate Longbow and Zenith Avenger Greatsword along with my damage trinkets and aquabreather. Finally, I’d like to use my Celestial set of armor and weapons for balance encounters. That’s 18 pieces of armor, 7 different weapons, 18 different trinkets / back pieces and three different aquabreathers / underwater weapon sets.
It takes way too long to have to ‘manually’ find the proper item which is an issue as I have the max bags – 20 slots with the 20 slot starter backpack and then swap it out one by one. OK, so I’m lazy! But it is a feature that is in other games and makes for a more enjoyable experience in changing your setup.
GW2 needs to implement this ability which can be put on the Hero options as ‘Sets’ with a maximum of 5 different sub-tabs for each individual set or, better yet, just allow the player to create his own unique sets. A player could have 2 or could have 20, although I wouldn’t think it would be a bad thing for there to be a 10 set limit. That should cover a survival, damage, and balance sets for PvE, WvW and PvP as well as one set for fractals.
Yes, I know this will create some additional storage but, as a programmer, it’s just a table and records. But the end result is more satisfied players who will play GW2 a lot longer.
