Guild Wars 2

The idea is fairly simple:

To prevent Black Lion merchant tab overload. After a set amount of time (I was thinking initially a year) the Black Lion supply has run out and is pulled from the vendor making room for newer sets. In exchange, the entire set of weapon skins becomes available for 10-20$ worth of gems (account bound on acquire similar to Zenith).

This gives people a chance to pay gold, buy/farm keys and otherwise earn them through current means, but once the time period is up it allows those who started playing much later after a skin set came out to afford them at a reasonable price (instead of half the cost of a precursor or so per skin) while avoiding merchant clutter.

I agree. The skins are way to hard for a game aimed at casual players. If anything, the track to get those skins is aimed at Korean/Japanese style grinding. I am also in the camp of picked Radiant arms because only partial set was out and at this point I would much rather have the Hellfire set. I wonder if I can file a ticket to get that unlock changed….

I would say make a full set available every 10k AP or so, much more obtainable for a casual player.
