I’m surprised this doesn’t come up more often, with regard to town clothes at least. Basically I think it would be lucrative and practical to add a third fashion tab specifically for diving or even swimming in town. So instead of just diving in your underwear your character would be automatically changed into whatever cash shop swimsuit fashion you have equipped. I realize it’s unnecessary and a bit superfluous but so are town clothes really. At least this would be functional when diving. And you could add to it by adding different diving animations for different swimsuits. A perk also would be to make them dye-able. Thoughts?
I know there are a lot of logical reasons not to have a mount, but personally I use the flying broom all the freaking time and would love to see some alternatives. For one it adds a new level of immersion with unique animation and expression that add more dimension and life to your character. Also while yes you can walk run and wp everywhere, having a mount is just fun despite it’s impracticality.
Man I just posted about this very thing 5 min ago on another thread. I for one would love to see more duelist or human cultural tier 3 styled sets for medium armor. It doesn’t even have to be skimpy, just feminine at least. I’m tired of my character looking awkwardly encumbered by their gear. I do kinda like the cash shop skins they have added lately although one did still have a trench coat theme I thought its pleated mini skirt and tighter waist made it at least look feminine.
Personally I would welcome some more variety in the medium armors. Most of them are trenchcoat style with the exception of like 2 that happen to be somewhat “skimpy.” I use that term loosely in keeping with the thread. I think a more appropriate way to think of this would be suggesting they add some armor skins that are more feminine. It doesn’t have to show skin to look good and like wise it doesn’t have to look bulky and awkward to hide it.
After finally getting enough tokens in Arah to get the armor for myself I noticed not only did they cover the left side up but they just copied the covered side over to the uncovered side while leaving the hand that was originally there. I think it would have been better to just remove the first hand so that at least it would have been symmetrical. Now it just looks awkward. Additionally, and this is just a small thing, I realize they needed to put some kind of underwear underneath but it would have been a little neater if they had worked it into the design somehow so that it either dyes the same color or at least is hidden on the sides by the bands. Now if I want to use a light color on the bands it really sticks out and is out of place.
personally I felt that originally they had a good balance going between modest and revealing. There was something for both tastes. Although I will argue that some of the armor choices are a little redundant (ie how many different trench coats does one need to choose from?). My hope is that when future expansions come out that they will at least continue to offer a good balance of both modest and revealing styles, because whether you like one and hate the other you are just as entitled to your opinion as the next person and no one is more important than the other. As for the armors pointed out in this thread I have to say I would go with the beta version simply because there are already quite a few modest versions of heavy armor to choose from and only 3 or so that are somewhat revealing. I would however still like to know why the change so close to release.
Personally I just like the idea of the added animations and the fact that you would have an alternative (and functional) fashion option is a plus. They could even give achievement points for skill combinations in a single dive if they wanted to get crazy. So there is a lot to work with. Also I think I read in another thread the idea of making the undergarment skin dye-able at least like they did for hair accessories. But then you would be stuck with whatever color you started with just like with the hair accessories. So this would be like the win all.
Has a GM ever weighed in on this? maybe in a similar thread? I’m curious as to the reasoning behind the change from Beta armor to live versions.
Not sure if this has been suggested already or not. I think with the implementation of diving spots all over Tyria, a nice addition would be adding Swimsuit fashion for purchase that could give you different dives to do. Since there is no way to change how your characters undergarments look (or even color them) I think this would be a fun and useful compromise.
I am sick and tired of getting “Obstructed” , “missed” or “out of range” when I am standing on top of a freaking Graveling Mound shooting it with a bow or axe. Is there any way to fix this so that ranged players can be effective against these in a dungeon? It is very frustrating.
