Two words: unarmed combat.
I wanna be able to do martial arts, not just swords and rifles and scepters and stuff. So who’s with me?!

I suggest selectable “unarmed” styles, or even just knuckledusters as a weapon.
Anet, do not disappoint me.

It’s me again, the salty, demanding, asura-loving kitten.

Please, please, please give me this one thing if nothing else, because the game deserves it.
Make outfits a force for good rather than salt, and give us Kigurumi outfits.

I’ve taken the liberty of compiling a list of creatures that would make adorable Tyrian Kigu.

- Moa
- Bone Minions
- Shadow Fiends
- Skritt
- Grubs or Slublings.
- Saurians
- Wyverns
- Hylek

You sent me a letter of congratulation when I earned Eagle Scout, so you know you can give my words consideration. I salute you, loyal devs.

[Suggestions] Gemstore Items

To preface this, these are mostly going to be suggestions for skins. These skins might be a little… Complicated...read: insane and probably infuriating to texture and/or model correctly, but if they’re possible it would be fantastic.

So. Enough rambling.

Armor skins, aka the kind of thing you put on new important NPCs to hype them:
- A shoulder skin that looks like a poncho-style Mino (Japanese straw cloak which was basically a poor man’s raincoat) or better yet, an outfit that includes this, especially on the Asura model.
- <salt> A helm skin that actually looks plausible on Asura. Like maybe a hood with ear pockets or something. Especially for heavy armor, Asura are lacking in helmets that don’t require the apparent crushing and/or severance of ears. </salt>
- Glove skins resembling cesti or knuckle dusters.
- A ragged, torn-up chest skin that looks like layer upon layer of rags accumulated over a long time spent traveling in destitute conditions. (Description?)
- an all-classes helm skin that gives them a single Oni horn from the center of their forehead.

Weapon Skins. Unique, black lion, NPC or otherwise.
- Skins resembling eastern blades for the following weapons:
~ sword (katana, tsurugi, hook swords, etc.)
~ dagger (tanto/wakizashi/kodachi)
~ mace (tetsubo)
- a focus skin that looks like a string of prayer beads
- a focus skin that looks like an Ofuda

Other things, i.e. Actual new ideas for gemstore items instead of just new skins.
- something to convert combat boosts (for those who don’t use them) into other kinds of boosts like karma or exp boosts. And vice versa I guess.
- a convenience item that allows you to select an event so that upon its initialization, you are teleported there. For example, if you’re sick of missing out on the Bloodstone-crazed Wyvern event for the fortieth kitten time in a row (entirely hypothetically of course) you can use this item in verdant brink, select that event, and then when someone next spawns the wyvern over in good old VB, you get a popup that will let you choose to get dragged there as though you had waypointed.
- a mini set of basically two children of each race so having one of said minis is like your character having some adoring small follower (or squire, or apprentice or literal child.) maybe give it some job-o-tron-backpack style dialogue every now and then.

ANet, I apologize for my neediness, don’t take anything here too seriously I guess. Unless you think it’s a good idea to add to the game, then take it VERY seriously.

If anybody has the time to create a couple extra chat commands, it’d be really lovely to see some new emotes, such as ones that let you get the knocked-down and/or “downed” poses without requiring being attacked. Useful for RP and also for just messing around.

Can we talk about emotes

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Here are some emotes that I think would be a highly beneficial addition to gw2:
/flirt or /kiss both of which are self-explanatory
/joke for a pratfall or similar
/duel for a not-so-serious combat challenge
And something race-specific like Asura getting a little holographic control panel thing and Charr saluting or whatever.

Please be CONSTRUCTIVE in your criticism!
