Guild Wars 2

I’m sure a lot of people would like more customization, but need to build momentum for them to post on it. Get your guild members or friends to weigh opinions on it and get them to post. A game company is going to focus their time on improvements that a fair amount or the majority of players will appreciate. The more feedback they hear on a topic the more likely they’ll make changes or at least let the players know that they are looking into some improvements for said area of gameplay (in this case crafting) Right now areanet is probably focused on WVW, PVP, and character balancing because this is where most players will be vocal about any changes needed. Keep posting and add different ways customization could be achieved. Some ideas are easier to implement than others.

Figured this thread more of a suggestion so re-posted to here https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/suggestions/More-different-STATS-in-GEARS/509473

I agree would like to see more customization in the crafting skill. Like being able to craft an item with all 1 Stat or able to make an item with multiple stats of your choice. Would be nice to say put in base components than vial of blood get weapon or armor with all + power instead of split among 3 different stats. I like the idea of custom making insignias maybe they could put an extra slot in armor/weapons for the insignia, like they have for runes/sigils.

Would it be viable for anet team to make crafting even more customizable? Especially for someone who’s mastered a crafting skill up to 400. For example, making a lvl 80 rare or exotic that focuses on one trait line like power or condition damage instead of 3, or being able to craft a lvl 80 rare that covers all traits. Was thinking something along the lines of crafter puts in the basic components (coat padding/ lining) then adds the materials for the specific stats they want (vials of blood=power, venom sac=condition damage, and so on) 1 Thick Longcoat Panel + 1 Thick Longcoat Padding + 10 Spools of Silk Thread + 15 Vials of Potent Blood= 1 Noble’s Coat of Power (Rare) Def: 299 + 217 Power.
