I just came back to the game and the armor in-game still looks atrocious for the most part. Of course, there are always exceptions. (I play human/sylvari mostly so I can’t speak for other races.)
I’ve seen a lot of concept art for the armors in this game and they look decent. Then they bring them in-game and they look boxy, overly bulky, and lack fluidity with the body shape or they’re so overly exaggerated that they make your character look fat (those skirts that make you look like you have gigantic birthing hips and a fat butt from behind.). That, or they look like 1 dimensional paper cutouts. Laughable. (Example: Greatswords/swords/zodiac plate/etc…)
Then there’s the recycling of armor skins with flame effects added to them, as others mentioned. Very lazy of them, imo.
I really miss the armors from GW1. This game is very hit or miss as far as armor aesthetics go. And most of them are misses imo.
If there’s anything I would like to see for future armor skins it would be more streamlining with the body. Getting really tired of seeing boxes on my lower legs and hips.
It’s happened to me 3 times now… While previewing armor from the dungeon token vendors it’s auto-bought pieces of gear I didn’t ask for. Just happened now, as I was previewing the TA gear and was rotating my character in the preview box when it auto bought some leggings I cannot use and did not want in the first place. PLEASE add a confirmation box OR implement a time limit to refund items. This is getting ridiculous.
Is there any real tactic to these giant groups of mobs in CM Explore in path 1 with the asura? From what I’ve experienced there isn’t aside from leashing them and picking them off. Just wondering if someone could enlighten me and possibly relieve my frustration.
The only character I leveled up was a Sylvari so I was lucky enough to see Trahearne enough to not see him as a stranger suddenly stepping into the story and stealing the spotlight. However, when the story shifted it’s focus from me to him I did find it a little jarring. I haven’t finished the story yet, thinking that maybe by the end he would accidentally get killed and I’d retake the spotlight. Obviously not by these posts.
When Trahearne took center stage I lost interest in the story. He’s a very… nice character. But he’s also very bland, as others have stated, and fails to leave an impression on the player, unlike Tybalt (I was very disappointed when they killed him off). Now if it were Tybalt instead of Trahearne I could see myself enjoying the story a lot more…
After selecting a target my character will often switch to other random targets in the area or will deselect the target completely while attacking. This has been happening for a few days now not only for myself but guild mates as well.
