Guild Wars 2

Manekk.6981:

Like the title says I would like the town clothes removed entirely since pretty much noone uses them anyway and instead have that entire panel be turned into a costume panel where you equip the gear with the look you want in a similar fashion to many other games (or town clothes for that matter), transmutation stones could instead be used to activate said panel set and the option for multiple sets could be availible for purchase in the gem store to open additional costume panels.

I think this is a far better system and for nerds like me that like to have multiple sets to fit the zone I am in this is works much better.

One of the most awesome things about the first Guild Wars was the costume slot and how you could use it out in the world even while in battle. I loved the many different costumes you could buy to change the look of your character, including the different holiday costumes. What Manekk said above about different costume slots is a brilliant idea. Being a little bit of a nerd myself as well as a character concept artist (not by profession, though I do have a degree in it ;P.), I take pride in the characters I create and what they look like. Many of the characters I create and customize in the game are created based on my ideas of characters from my comic stories. I would LOVE to be able to have multiple costume slots to change my armor look from time to time. I would take town clothes out completely and turn them into open world costume slots. I would even spend money on gems to purchase different costumes for my characters like I did in the first Guild Wars. Please don’t troll my rant, but I do get tired of seeing the same armor on my characters. Just thought I would put my two cents in.

I have multiple characters of different class types that I swap armor back an forth with, and removing the preview options was not a very good idea. I played my ranger last night and wanted to see a new piece of armor I received from a drop and noticed I couldn’t view it because it was light armor. I asked on the map about it and a bunch of players had mentioned that it was no longer an option. Seriously? Bad enough we can’t preview items in the auction house before we buy it, now you take away the option to view armor of different class types we receive through loot? Some of us take pride in what our characters look like and what their weapons look like, and I know most of us have characters of different class types that they switch back and forth to when they find new armor for them. Please give us the preview option back. It’s a bigger inconvenience to most than you think.
