Guild Wars 2

I like the other ideas as well. I think this could happen. I see like 400 something have have read this thread, which means people are curious. I hope more people add ideas, or agree with what’s already there. I think it’d be a way for them to make money, and for us to get what we want out of whatever special procs they add to whatever tool they add it to. Us still getting account-wide use on every character once it’s been bought. Switching stuff around is a hassle, and buying a set for each of my 16 characters ain’t gonna happen. :P That is unless there was a reason for me to spend money on them, because they get me different things while you use them.

I know a lot of people ask for Anet to make unlimited tools unlocked and usable on any character from the hero tab after buying once (account-wide). Like how the outfits, gliders, and mail delivery tabs work. People argue they’d lose out on money, because people would maybe buy 3… One of each type and that’s it. They are right if we left it at that.

Currently, you have to buy multiples of each kind if you don’t want to have to always switch them using the bank. It’s a hassle, and that’s why we want them to be selectable on whatever character we’re on.

What if you made all the unlimited tools work how the Watchwork Mining Pick works? It currently has a chance to proc a sprocket. Why can’t all of the harvest tools give you something? It would allow you to make them usable account wide, and still give people a reason to buy the other ones. You’d be giving us what we wanted, and you’d still make your money, maybe even more than you currently make from them.

I’m pretty sure a lot of people bring up how only that tool does anything special and it probably irks the people who own the other ones. If you made the others special and have a chance to give you a surprise crafting component based on the tool used; everyone would be happy. What each unlimited tool would have a chance to proc would be up to Anet, seeing as they would know best. I like how we have the Watchwork Mining Pick to get our sprockets. It’s one of the only ways to get them now. Maybe there are other not-so-common items from past events each could proc.

Maybe the jack in the box Halloween sickle could give you candy corn, or some other Halloween only item used in recipes? The new Skritt sickle could have a chance to give you a bag of filched goods, an unidentified dye, and so on. Another tool could proc Karka shells, or whatever. Do they have to only be crafting materials? No. Random goody bags, crafting supplies for special stat sets, dyes, random small amounts of silver, or whatever. These are just basic ideas of how I think we could get this to work.

Let’s make this a thing, guys! I really think it’s a way for everyone to get what they want!

I couldn’t find my post, then I saw it was sent to die in here. ANET was like… “Bye, Felicia!” Maybe they’d sell me the Winter Solstice costume personally? I’d really rather not wait until December… >.>

Formal shoes that appear as high heels for women, and nice dress shoes for males. Even if you only sold the heels I am telling you they’d sell like crazy. Don’t you guys want to put your kids through college and thank stiletto pumps?!

I was hoping there’d be more interest in this. Must only be me. lol

I hope so, thanks for the response.

Would it be possible to do a Christmas in July Gem Store week? Like sell the Winter Solstice Outfit and such? I think it’d be a cool way to give people another chance to buy certain things we missed out on during December. I’m sure there’s a limitation on what you guys can sell in the store at once, which is understandable. Sometimes it can be a long time before we see certain items and it kind of sucks. I was looking through the outfits I don’t own yet and seen one I really liked on my second Revenant.

Turns out it’s a Christmas outfit which looks so good on a Sylvari. Then, I looked up and seen it’s not available, that’s when my heart sank. lol I’m one of those weirdos that has an idea/look/theme for each character and how they’ll look. I have like 16 characters, and I always cycle through them and it’s what keeps the game fresh for me. Anyways, I know this probably can’t happen short notice, or maybe you guys already had something like this planned.

It would be cool to see who else would like Christmas in July, with Christmas outfits, and items available for a week!
