I think I am.. But then again, I’ve been to rehab for other addictions so I don’t think it’s surprising, even though I criticize GW2 most of the time here on the forums.

i opened a ticket on support about this and NOTHING, they don’t give any feedback to ticket or give us any attention.

I think they’d respond only after the redesign is introduced.

if that’s the case it’d be nice for them to give a time frame on when we should expect it to be done

The dev who posted here already said there is no ETA though.. we just have to wait.

letting the people keep the current flamekissed design would be unfair. they can however, provide some sort of compensation like giving 800 gems AND letting them keep the new design.

Why would we want another skin instead? if we don’t end up liking it the replacement holds no value whatsoever, just junk that would sit in storage.

Unlocking cultural armor racial restrictions seems the most solid way to fix the problem but also the most work for anet. This would also allow much more character customization in terms of armour combination and gives players the ability to appear unique where t3 sets are almost the standard these days.

You can contact customer support to restore your toon’s look prior to applying the flamekissed skin if you still don’t like the new one. Isn’t the point of taking it out in the first place is so that cultural distinction via armor choices are maintained? I personally don’t want that restriction lifted.

At least you get to have an extra 800 gems as compensation if they follow my suggestion.

The point is more that we are left with gems that we didn’t ask for and an armour set we quite possibly don’t want in exchange for far more useful currency (either more in game gold then what you can resell the gems for or RWM).

That’s fair enough though with the cultural restrictions, I think everyone will have their own opinion on that.

I’m sorry but I have to agree with people saying that nobody really bought the skins with RWM. They bought it with gems and thus are entitled for refund on gems/ingame items alone, not RWM. They might release something you’d like in the future so maybe you can save those extra gems they may send you?

I do understand how you feel though, and it’s reasonable to feel that way. TBH, I also bought the flamekissed armor and would like to keep the current skin particularly because it is an improved version of the human t3 cultural armor which i am very fond of, especially since my character IS human.

One thing I like about Gw2, is that any race can play any profession, because professions are not restricted to certain races. I have never been a big fan of making something exclusive. It just limits the player’s options.

I want X armor, which I can only get if I play Y race, which I cannot play if I chose Z profession.

Thankfully Gw2 does not have the Z in the above. I would love to remove Y as well. Then players would not have to consider what armor they want when creating a character (if that aspect matters to them that is.)
Instead, they could focus on choosing their preferred race.

Besides: If the cultural restrictions could be unlocked somehow, it would add a new level to the game. We could also potentially gain access to 12 more armor models. Most of them quite beautiful.

It’s a matter of preference, I personally like the idea of racially exclusive armors. It’s one of the only options we have if we want to be distinguished from the other races, especially in PvP where we can’t use our racial skills. There are tons of non-exclusive armors available now anyway, I don’t feel like it’s necessary to remove cultural armors at this point.

At the end of the day, if you don’t like the new skin you can get a refund, which i would expect (are you reading this Anet) will include 6 transmutation splitter stones. That way the gems are refunded, and armour can be reverted back to skin.

But with any luck it will be an entire new design exclusive to that gem armour that is epic then everyone will have it lol

I’m actually expecting people who purchased the original design to get at least 800 gems regardless when the new skin is released.

I’m just hoping the new skin will be so awesome that people will choose not to give Anet a hard time about reimbursing their stuff. Tbh, I’d also like to keep my current Flamekissed skin since it’s an upgraded T3 human cultural and it’s the reason why I made a human in the first place. It’s one of the things that keeps me apart from the other races and I don’t want to lose that. I’m a human supremacist. XD

I don’t really understand why people act like such victims when it comes to losing both the t3 copy and the original t3, that they transmuted onto exotic gear. why would you for any cheap-gemstore skin want to override your expensive unique t3 in the first place? you were obviously ready to lose the original t3 skin and you must not have cared THAT much for it, if you so easily transmute something on to it. I still think the original looks better than this copy. it dyes much better, the new one is horrible at that. and the flames look quite bad. like orange steam. The ones on the gloves dont at all fit the rest of the armor. pretty bad. they could have made much better particle effects than that. imo. and why on earth would other races than humans even consider transmuting this gem store skin to their cultural??? why? its beyond me. and humans too, you could have transmuted it on a new exotic and have both skins. just too stupid. both of them are bought only for their skin and not stats.

It’s their choice, whatever their reason may be. Not everyone shares your taste. How is that so hard to understand? Just because they think differently than you doesn’t mean they’re stupid.

How about they just give 800 gems to those who purchased the original skin regardless of whether they’ll like the new skin or not since it isn’t the skin they really bought? Would that make you happy?

No one is kittening that the skin was removed from the gem shop, 99% of the people that have posted are fine with it. It was Anets mistake to release the skin in the first place. The issue most people have now is a feeling of being betrayed by anet afterwards due to a few things:

1. Anet gave us a bullkitten excuse for why the skin is being completely changed. Its evident the uproar from the community was not unanimous, and the claim that no one in anet noticed how similar it was to a cultural armor set until after it was released is absurd. You would have to be blind not to see it

2. Anet is not properly compensating those who have the skin already. 800 gems back means we technically get a free armor skin, that’s great but everyone that bought the skin WANTED that skin, or they wouldn’t have bought it. You change the skin, the same people may not want it, and wouldn’t have spent the money on it to begin with.

3. Anet has stated the new skin will be at a discounted price once its out. So instead of getting a free 800gem skin with the return they are offering, we now have a 700? 600?500? gem skin. Due to conversions in prices, we would be getting back the same amount of gold that others would be spending for gems to buy this new skin if it ranged in the 600-500 range and people just lost real life money (like 2$ maybe but im still pointing it out)

4. Those that don’t like the new skin will have to reskin and redo their toons (if they did a makeover kit) to get back what was lost. Some, who even replaced gem store gear, will have to rebuy sets. For those considering transmutation splitters, that’s even more expensive and Anet has not offered to give us the stones needed. ( Even then in some cases it wont recover the skins lost) We just lost more gold/money.

-snip-

Is this true? Reduced price for the reskinned Flamekissed for everyone else?!

I take screenies of my character everytime I use a new skin on her. I have always used the COF armor as base since last year, I just overwrite skins on it.

I also bought the flamekissed armor to replace my phoenix armor set + mask of the crown, so if they just give me 800 gems as compensation, it would really suck for me. But still, I commend them for taking the armor out even though I really really like it on my human character.

Humans are just jealous because norns look far better in their armor

Ok serious now. It would be a shame to remove it from game. Its such a good looking remodel. Leave it for those who bought it (as a novelty item for supporting game and buying from game shop) or remove it but give us our armor back with skins they had before we added flamekissed skin on them.

Transmutation splitter wont solve anything, most of us have applied this skin on already transmuted armor, we would just get basic (default) skin of that item.

Totally support this solution; hope they can implement it, as it’s the only thing that will satisfy all parties involved. If you like it, stay with it, otherwisethey should let you have the old look without any further investment (stones, re-applying skins, etc.)

Well, so far from the feedback from other players who filed tickets to customer support, they won’t be doing this, just a refund of 800 gems. I really really wish they would re-think their compensation plan.

I think they won’t really scrap the improved T3 human cultural. They might incorporate it via other means, it’s just that other races won’t have access to it. But that would also mean they should improve on existing cultural armors for other races too.

Yes, I bought it even though I protested so much against it. :/ My character is a human so I felt “entitled” to it.

LOL, sorry… that’s a bit hypocritical, isn’kitten You were against it so much but… you bought it anyway?

IKR… I admit to my fault though. It’s not that I hate the armor, I really liked it in fact. I just don’t agree with having it available for all races and the fact that it is reductive towards those who worked on their T3 being so much cheaper (and better looking) as it is.

^This. If they think 800 gems and reverting the armor back to its original skin (the very first skin used) is enough compensation for this whole fiasco, they better think again. A debacle as big as this cannot be satiated by that alone. In fact, that’ll only introduce another outrage.

Then again, there are people who believe it serves us right. Look what someone answered me on another thread. Priceless really.

…The answer by the community to the release of the Flamekissed armour was almost unanimous – hence the response from ANet that must have happened. In-game chat, forum chat, reddit, literally everywhere the community objections were present.
If you then went on to craft new objects in order to match the new looks – let’s face it, it is your own mistake. The mistake on ANet’s part to release this skin was like a “bug” of the game that should not have happened in the first place. The gem refund is all that you deserve, really.

If they can’t see how big of an issue this is and how much this affects the community, disregarding the fact that Anet even had to take down the item from the gem store and had to redo the entire thing, then they are simply being ignorant.

since it appears customer service is about to make totally bone-headed move that will certainly lose them customers, it might be a really good idea to get hold of reps like Regina and Gaile (are those the right ones?) right NOW before this nonsense occurs. Maybe there is still time to head it off at the pass and to find a sensible solution that isn’t totally stupid.

customer support got back to me, they will not be offering a way to get back an old T3 skin, if you want it back after the change, you will have to rebuy the skin. the only thing that will be offered is the refund of 800 gems and an automatic reskin when the new one is put in.

Thank you crusaders and anet, you just screwed people out of even more gold.

To be honest, you DO deserve at least those item appearance restoring things. At least you should get them even if they don’t offer them to you, so you can go back to your old look without that much of an expense.

Transmutation splitters will only revert the armor back to the original (in this case, the exotic one) + the current skin. That means people will have to spend another 100g+ again + stones to get their T3 EXOTIC. That is just crazy. They better think of a better way to compensate for this mess.

And what about the people who overwrote another skin for the flamekissed one? They should get the look they had before transmuting to flamekissed back, NOT a COF set.

As someone that had t3 before this release and bought the new skin and reskin it, im extremely kitten ed that I am not only about to lose the skin I just bought, but I am also about to lose my T3 completely when they decide to change it. PLUS the fact that anet has offered to put the new skin on SALE when its reposted is just an insult to injury.

We can contact consumer support for our 800 gems but we have no way of getting our old T3 skin back?

Thank you for telling me im about to spend all that money for a second time for t3 while you listen to a community where 99% of them didn’t buy the skin your changing. Although releasing a T3 skin was a bad idea and they have learned from their mistake, they did it and people bought it because they wanted it.Those that spent the money for the skin, let them keep it. It was up for less then 24 hours and just became the rarest in the game.

The ones kittening got their wish with getting it removed, but taking it away from everyone who already got it is a bad idea. Redo the skin, call it something else, and put it back up for sale, along with the bad reskins of heavy and leather.

I suggest you make a very detailed ticket and wait for their response. After this huge debacle I doubt they can afford to kitten off more customers for valid complaints.

Also, I wouldn’t jump to the conclusion that the improved T3 cultural is gone forever. They might incorporate it in the game again as an upgrade to existing ones or something like that. I’m just trying to be positive from this point on, since I will be submitting tickets too.

To those who are concerned about losing a great skin (T3 human cultural with flame effects), I don’t think Anet will just sit around and discard the entire thing. Maybe they’ll put it back in the future as an upgrade of sorts for T3 or even as an Ascended skin. But if they do, they’d probably still make it race-exclusive. So go make your humans now! XD

I’m not entirely concerned about not being properly compensated at this point after buying the armor. As much as I dislike Anet now and the direction the game is headed, their customer support has been really good (to me and my friends) so far. Just be polite and specific and have screenies to back it up.

Im sorry, Honest question what does RWM, SOL, and CF mean? I thought RWM was “With Real Money” and you just inverted the R and W but I think im wrong?

RWM = real world money. SOL = kitten out of luck, CF = cluster kitten. Sorry I’m old military. There will be kittens in my explanation but I’m sure you can fill in the blanks.

oh thanks

On topic: I hope they do it like the Phoenix set where it’s unique to the human female since it is a T3 Human I hope the Humans that bought it will keep the current skin XD

I hope the new flamekissed set will be the Phoenix Set with fire effects.

But really, I wish they would revert those who’d file tickets who won’t like the new one with the skin they overwrote instead of the original. Like for those who transmuted T3 cultural to exotics then bought flamekissed.

sadly despite the awesomeness a flaming phoenix set would look they can’t because it would demean the phoenix set and those that bought it will cry out like this XD

IKR! They should just sell “effects” items in the gem store then.

The people who used gold will not be able to use the refund to get RWM.. I am sympathetic towards those that have used RWM for the first time just for the skin too though, and understand why they would be upset. But they did convert them to gems, and from that point on, that money already became virtual goods, whether they intended to use it for the flamekissed or not is moot imho.

I don’t think letting them keep the current skins they have would have a positive reaction from the community though, so I guess Anet would just have to choose the lesser evil.

I want guys like you to get compensated properly though.

The problem is how are people that payed RWM to get gems to buy the armor set advertised and also use makeover kits, bought dyes with gold to be compensated? How far back can they be compensated? I can tell you.. Gems back for the armor they paid for. No compensation for gold spent on dyes bought to match it, no compensation for makeovers to match it. Someone takes $10 to buy a skin then it get changed, wait (it will be an epic look per Anet) then they don’t like it they end up with gems on hold. If they used gold to buy dyes they get the double dong. If they used a makeover kit and dyes they get a triple dong.

Seriously Anet. Cut your losses on this one. Let people that bought the skins for the look advertised keep them and just put the new skin in the gem store.

TBH i don’t know if there’s a way to make the compensation fair for everyone. But personally, I don’t think the comparison between people who bought gems via cash or gold should be differentiated at this point. They both used resources (money vs time) and converted it to gems.

Why is anet listening to these cry babies?
I bet 90% of them don’t even use a cc on there store,yet us ppl who do are going to get punished because of them.

I bought the armour because i liked it,i did not like the other amours in the past so never bought them.
also two of my chars have had many transmuted looks on them before this new armour was put on them.
so if i don’t like the new armour i lose out on money as well as my orig armour before i put this new armour on a it will revert back to the orig armour before the transmutation.

The simple way is ppl who bought get to keep it now, it simple as that.
we should not be forced to change it now and lose out because some kids who don;t even use a cc in anet store starts crying.

Tbh anet will lose a lot of paying customers,if the paying customers gets **** over.
Because i will never use my cc again.

Ya, what kind of game rewards in game activity more than throwing money at the screen?!

I’v have more hours in this game than you think.
I even bought this game before release so got to play the beta side of it.
also i have 8 full lvl 80 all good geared,all took a lot of my time and farming for the gear.
But if something turns up in the store that’s nice or cool and cannot get it anywhere else.i will buy it.

Ya, except for the whole part about how it was there. In an npc vendor, for 3x the cost.

so what.
when i bought gw 2 i paid over £50 guess what gw 2 now is less than £25.
Also the armour is kinda different it have flames.

it wont be long before ascended armour is out and they might even look better still.
are ppl still going to cry when there cheaper in tp to there cultural armour?

You are totally not getting the point.

I get the point.
What i don’t get is ppl who paid real cash gets kitten over.
yet the ones that prob never use a credit card wins.
it don’t make sense.

I really want a good compensation for this mess for everyone. But you are trying to discredit the validity of the complaint through an assumption. What if those people who bought T3 human cultural did so by converting gems to gold? They used real cash too.

However some bought it for what was advertised and bought dyes with gold to match but they don’t like how it looks with the new look. More people unhappy. People used makeover kits to match and don’t like the new look, unhappy. People that only spent RWM to have the look that was sold may be un happy with the change. This is a total CF.

This ^^

It’s not just about the loss of a cool skin that i bought in a legit way. It’s about all that comes with it. I bought the skin, i used a full Makeover Kit to rework my toon over it, the dyes, the weapons, etc.

All this feels like a bad April Fool’s joke that cost me money and gold.

People who complained about this situation in the first place didn’t lose anything since all this mess started.

I buy total makeover kits, dyes, backpieces etc just to make my character look cohesive too. But I understand where the complaint is coming from and I am one of those in favor of having it removed. I want guys like you to get compensated properly though.

I’m one of those people who just keeps putting skins over previous skins on 1 armor set… If I bought the flamekissed armor and didn’t like the new one, I would expect Anet to revert my armor back to its previous skin rather than the original one.

The only thing they can do right now is try to make the new flamekissed skin as awesome as possible so people won’t ask for a refund. :/

They should just improve all cultural armors so the humans will still get the flamekissed T3 light armor or use T3 improved armors for ascended ones. My issue is for those people who transmuted multiple times that they won’t get the last transmuted skin they used prior to the flamekissed.

I just want to know, if the people who already bought it who used the skin to overwrite another skin (say the phoenix armor skin+mask of the crown) doesn’t like the new one, will they revert their armors to that previous skin? Or will it be like the transmutation splitter and revert the armor back to its original style (say, the COF armor)? Coz that would suck.

I commend them for doing what is right for their players by removing the flamekissed skin.

Hey, everyone. We’ve been reading all your feedback about the Flamekissed Armor Skin that was released into the Gem Store yesterday.

Although the Flamekissed Armor uses the same mesh as the Tier 3 Human Cultural Armor, it was not our intention to create an armor skin that so closely matched the existing Tier 3 Human Cultural armor set. The intention was to use the mesh as a basis for creating an armor set that stands apart and is distinct in appearance. However, after reading your feedback, we agree that the Flamekissed armor is not visually distinct enough from Human Cultural Tier 3 armor.

We will do a few things to address this issue.

  • We will temporarily remove Flamekissed Armor Skin from the Gem Store.
  • Players who have purchased Flamekissed Armor Skin will keep the skin.
  • We will make new art for the Flamekissed Armor Skin that achieves our goal of making a visually distinct and attractive armor set and does not closely resemble the Human Tier 3 Cultural armor.
  • Once this new artwork is completed, we will then update the Flamekissed Armor Skin so that all existing sets that players have purchased get the new art. We will also offer the Flamekissed Armor Skin for sale again at that time.
  • When we update the Flamekissed Armor Skins with the new artwork, any player that has already purchased the set and who does not like the new, updated look, can get a full refund by contacting Customer Support.

Note that there is no ETA on when this change will happen. We need to work with the Character Art Team to determine when we can have a new armor skin ready, and this could take some time.

Thank you everyone for providing your feedback. We appreciate that you took the time to let us know how you feel about the new armor set.

Wow finally! Thank you for this!

But it wasn’t fun and funny for me. :/ It was tacky. I hope it draws negative attention to the game so Anet will finally listen to whatever players they will have left want come the new games.
