Would certainly be nice to have a wider range of weapons to choose from. For a class that’s meant to be versatile and slippery using anything they can grab, we don’t have the greatest selections. Dual swords and possibly crossbow could be nice, though I would love to walk around with a greatsword just cause it looks kitten with medium gear, I don’t see how it’d work for a thief (and I have tried very hard to).
Any weapon works for Thief. Dunno how people get this weird mindset.
A Thief will pick up and use anything they want to as a weapon. People are stuck on this weird generic rogue ideal though and don’t consider logic, nor know/remember how GW1 worked.

Mesmer steal is the best. Stability. Done.
Immobilize/stun a warrior and use the axe~ you generally give them a taste of their own OP medicine by nuking them for around 10-20k with it.
I thought it was for the achievement points. XD
Meh, I did a few runs and no one got any of them, nor have any of my friends and guildies, so I just bought the sword. It nearly doubled in price after that so maybe it was an ok decision. ;/ I thought it’d actually go down in price after a while but idk.
Nightmare has always been my fav 1h sword skin~ now it’s a more appropriate color since I glow blue. ;s
Somebody needs a time out. :o
and I’m sure majority of those people you’re talking about love the game, they just see things they believe needs fixed/improved. A lot of the time Anet actually does fix things because of forum complaints.
I got a light armor Nightmare body piece from the dredge/norn boss chest.
I thought it was kinda unusual.
It’s interesting though that it’s account bound but not soulbind on use. That mean you can swap it between characters infinately? Would sticking a rune in it end up making it soulbound? ;o
I completed the boss twice, both times no one got anything from last boss other than the usual blues n greens and maybe rares.

Yes. Considering I also believe all classes should be able to use all weapons, like GW1.
This drives me crazy too, because I’m pretty much bored of stealth at this point and wanted to play something more like GW1 Assassins.
But they shove stealth into our faces as Shadow’s Embrace is really the only strong way to save your squishy little body from the cond meta, and those nasty perplexity spammers.
I’m S/D though mostly~
I was irritated enough to stick a Sigil of Generosity onto my weapon and went for 30 trickery for the high ini, buffs, cc and steal spam. I use the Signet traits to reduce cd and give might to make more use of Signet of Agility and Malice (cuz I just love it too much in wvw.)
With all the conds flying around it still doesn’t feel like enough though. Makes me wish Infiltrator Strike put down a light field~ then I could make more use of Dancing Daggers and remove conds at same time. :x

I love my Treebros and Treesistas.
Guild Wars 1
snip+ Better prestigious armors
(comparing this gw1 armor with the real ascended would be too unfair so I’ll use an enhanced version designed by one of the member of my guild).
Sigh…. so depressing not having Assassin armor from GW1…. SOOOOO DEPRESSING. Every day.
I have both and Legendary = more effort. -.- way more.
Short-bow is our only mainhand range weapon. :o Just pretend P/P doesn’t exist, and P/D is practually a melee set.
They’re cute furry things that go great with rice and butter.
Still WTB skirtless medium armor for poor neglected males.
apparently it’s a werechar
^
Gotta go to the Crystal Desert/Scar of Kralkatorrik . I want revenge for Glint Lyssa darn it
You think you can handle a Shadow of the Colossus-like battle with the most OP sized dragon ever? :O I’d cry and run away like Logan did.
I want the rest of Meguuma.
Ring of Fire only if we can get closer to water dragon. ;s I want some of that delicious unending ocean.
My party ….on more than one occasion has gotten to the end at the last boss…and then the leader decides to leave…therefore defeating over an hours worth of work….down the drain…no defeating boss no tokens….
If this in the game could get changed. I’m sure it’d be appreciated by many players….
who here agrees?
This idea of changing this is simply too good. It’s just too good. I’m surprised they didn’t implement something as awesome as not being kicked when leader leaves yet. It’s just too good of an idea.
I’ve never seen one. Which means they are the absolute stealthiest race. .-.
They already said that likely candidates for playable races are Heket, Tengu, or Kodan. Skritt, Quaggan, and Grawl are likely never going to be playable if you ask me. Also from what I recall they said if they even do another profession it’ll be WAYYY down the road and likely another soldier profession.
Whats difference of Hylek and Heket? o.O
It’s unlikely they’ll add a lesser race as playable. More combat tonics would be better than adding the lesser races imo. :P
Assassin Armor. ;/
Very disappointed about that. A dev already mentioned on the forum that we would soon be able to buy liquid WXP with badges. Looks like he forgot to mention that this will require laurels…
So in the end WvW badges are still as useless as they have always been.
Well I had enough Laurels rotting to spend 3000 badges. ;/ Makes me kinda wish I didn’t spend 2-3k of them on armor for my alts.
my son is four. for halloween, he has made a request to be a knight(just like dear old pa…d’awwww). so we got him a nice costume. look here: http://www.potterybarnkids.com/products/knight-costume/?pkey=challoween-costumes&. sweet right?
so. i pull up the picture of the ascended armor and tell him, ‘hey boyo, this is your knight costume!’
he looks at it and says, ‘no thanks, i’ll be a ninja.’ not even a why. guess he gets his sense of humor from me too.
Smart kid. I wanna be a Ninja too but Anet refuses to let me have my Assassin armor from GW1. It makes my heart cry.
What? You don’t liek the fat-rolls armor?
At least yours is more colorful. XD My Sylvari is gray-skinned and his skincolor nearly consumes the entire leaves. :s Still unsure if I wanna use it or not.

The 4 second reveal still sucks horribly and shouldn’t exist. Thank god they reverted it for PvE and WvW but they left it in Spvp for some reason. No one complains about it as much anymore though because majority of Spvp Thieves just dropped using D/D all together.
The armor .. is 3 times shinier then the rest of the games armor.. and the model looks so good.
WHY DID YOU RUIN I!?
lol it looks like they ripped that out of dark souls.
It reminded me of the fat onion armor in Dark Souls when I saw it, except with less obesity. Just.. all them rolls. Looks really deformed on Sylvari.
Wow. These look awful. At least medium isn’t another trenchcoat!
It’s kinda Samurai~ish. Reminds me of Suikoden type armor.
I like it but unfortunately it doesn’t like me and makes my butt an umbrella.

Wish they’d just like.. make things w/o skirts. o.O Is that too much to ask? They did it with town clothes. :O
It brings me immense sadness on a daily basis.
They’ll never fix it unfortunately. Too bad we can’t at least get the option to just hide the armor like I do with clipping shoulders. :x
good news if this is ascended armor…because it will save me the hassle of having to worry about it and I can just make money off all the crazy people who just have to have it.
probably account bound. :P
Wow, lol. I guess only way Human armor fits a Sylvari male correctly is to have it not fit Humans at all. XD
That means if they fix it it wont look cool on my Sylvari anymore.
They should just disappear when the bossfights starts.
Teleportation surprised me more than once :/
Even better idea than fixing them. :s Just make them blow up into smithereens when destroyed and not be there anymore. XD
I like the light armor, except for the shoulders. closest thing to a normal top I’ve seen and the tiny skirt part actually isn’t poofy on my fashion cursed Sylvari.
http://imgur.com/b0BBd8H
The Medium body is cool, but unfortunately it’s skirt is gigantic on male Sylvari. /sigh.
The boots are a bit weird also, looks like you’re wearing 2 pairs.
http://i.imgur.com/IKxHFdK.jpg
The Heavy just looks deformed and fulla rolls. ;/ The pants are also huge.
http://imgur.com/WP9xdQh
Meow. I’d totally love to skin the light armor to my medium. .-.
that’s how they get you to buy more transmutation stones…. which means more money, which means they don’t really care about making COOL skins.
That doesn’t work. There’s nothing cool to Trans anything to, unless I can trans it to my GW1 character’s armor.

I love the new leaf hair because… It’s not just leaf hair, it’s a flower! Massive flower as hair! It’s so unusual and at home. I don’t like how it uses so much of my characters skin colour though, but if you play around with the red skin tones then there is actually a lot of tone and depth to it, colours that are bright wash out the hidden depth of the leaves. But I did have to change my whole colour scheme to make it look awesome though.
I like it but the colors holding me back. I don’t wanna change my Sylv’s skin color.
It should just keep the stem/vein skin color and change the rest. ;s
This particular one was actually used as the example on one of the streams and it was mentioned that it will be one of the new styles being added.
It was added today.
The halo machines you break at beginning of the fight are glitchy and teleport you all over the place when you bump into them. It’s really annoying >.<
Sometimes they’ll teleport you right into the spinning gears when you accidentally bump into them.
Thx, meow.

Especually when you got a Fire Sigil. They want me to buy an entirely new weapon w/o fire sigil just for 1 event?
How much does a green weapon cost? Or a rare weapon?
How much does it cost to make a **** event not suck?

It’s a very small amount of gold too.
…..
If exactly like that they may be exclusive to kits and not usable in character creation~ but who knows. Doesn’t matter to me either way.Very doubtful that these are only available one way or the other…adding hairstyles to the content should make them available for new characters and makeovers (but I could be mistaken).
They’re exclusive to kits. I win.
And yet, still no green hair color for humans. It’s been over a year and my Necro still isn’t allowed to look like my GW1 Necro.
They need to add elite scar and obsidian necro armor too with that. :<
The hair in the stream is added, no faces.
Here they are on my character, I like the Bottom left one but I wish it didn’t force you to use skin color on leaves. I want the whole leaves red
So in tomorrow’s big update we get….
Long requested cosmetic fixes for charr: zero.
Long requested cosmetic fixes for engineer kits: zero.
New hairstyles few people have asked for: Approximately thirty six.
Arena Net: “Why fix the existing content in our game when we can just add more?”
Why’d you leave out male Sylvari cosmetic fixes? 95% of our armor doesn’t fit.
You’ll be overjoyed to know that you have to pay for them too !
And don’t even bother making a new char, it won’t happen
It’s not very expensive.
They need to put the lore into a holodisk and give my Sylvari a Pipboy to read it on.
Much more interesting that way.
Technically they could just put them in our living stories tab.
Tabs are no fun, I want a pipboy.

Looks too easy.
So when you telekinetically levitate your spell book to your enemy and spin it around with dark magic, they are sliced up by…..paper cuts? Personally I think spell tomes should just be added as an entirely new weapon type for artificer; even suggested it once along side crossbows for huntsmen and polearms for weaponsmith. But of course that was before I knew Arena Net didn’t actually read the suggestions forum and only created it in the first place because they were tired of reading suggestions here and in the profession forums. You know; the places where people who might actually care could see them.
They got Book weapons in FF14. I find it to be an awkward and amusing weapon, especially when you can melee with it by smacking them in the face with the book. It’s low dmg and totally useless to melee with it, but it gives you the option. XD
I also crave a Crossbow Shortbow skin. :< Would be a nice Legendary even. Unless they want to actually add crossbows.
I love my Thief; mobile rogues in general in any game, and Assassin was my #1 favorite in GW1. But I have a Lv.80 Warrior as well and ironically (Wars were my least fav in GW1) I sometimes wish I mained a War instead. They are just easymode OPness and have a massive variety of playstyles, where as Thief there’s barely any decent/fun builds that function correctly and so many broken utilities that are worthless and crappy weapon skill setup that leaves skills you never use or need on your bar. The class feels very unfinished and unpolished.
I’m wondering/hoping they’re all unisex. All Sylvari hair should be imo.
