Forest Archer Pack <3 [Merged]

[Ashantara.8731]

My sincere thanks to the person who designed this. 😃 I had hoped for such a cloak since capes were introduced, and the option to choose between only the cape or the cape+quiver is phenomenal!

Now on to adding a matching medium armor or outfit (suggestion), per favore! 😁

Yeah not gonna happen...You said medium armor but everyone knows that Anet wants medium in coat (cuz silly pvp/wvw you going to get confused by non coat medium classes. How are you going to know it is a kitten ranger?!!!)/s

Now for real, I would like an attire like that. Would be fitting my sylvari druid so much 😄

Heh heh, that nails it! 😄

I will die if they indeed go and add a matching outfit! That would be a dream come true. 🥰

Idk if they're really forcing that much anymore. 1 - Outfits completely blow that out of the water. 2 - We've been getting a more non-trench coat medium armor since POF. 

For example: Mist Shard, Elegy/Requiem, Elonian/Spearmarshal, Runic, Anniversary set all come to mind. (plus both the PVP and WvW armor sets, ironically)

The suggested image is hardly much different from a lot of medium armors already in game, if any would prevent Anet from use a comparable style it would be their obsession with magitech styles and the likely use of Asian styles we'll likely be getting a fair bit of in the near future.

Love this pack...the options are a great touch!  Think I'll go give my ranger a wardrobe change, and frankly it looks good on many characters and professions.  Thanks designers!

[Naxos.2503]

Gotta be the best looking cloak for charrs. There is a bit of clipping, but it's also the only cloak I've seen that actually goes so far down it properly covers my ankles !

[anninke.7469]

I too like this cape a lot. I didn't really mean to get any more capes, but this one I must have.

[Ameepa.6793]

These look good indeed!

This is the first time I too bought a cape and am going to use one :)

[Pifil.5193]

I love this cloak and love the fact that you got 3 skins in the pack!

 

I hope to see more like this in the future, for example, a cloak this length but made of leaves could be excellent!

 

Great work and well done to the people who created this!

[kharmin.7683]

This one didn't really do it for me; however, the options provided in the pack for the price seems reasonable.

Pity they all ugly.

My bad 😞 I should have put /sarcasm instead of just /s

[Fueki.4753]

I'm just glad these don't add to the particle spam that's uglifying a lot of the game.

[Jables.4659]

I am a huge fan of the way they went about this one.  There are so many skins in this game that I would love to use if they were simplified, and I've always wondered why they don't make more basic versions of a particular skin and release it alongside more complex versions.  They could've just made the hooded cape with a quiver attached and released it as a single skin and a lot of people would've paid for it while myself and others would've been disappointed that such an amazing cloak is ruined by the quiver.  This type of pack is just fantastic all around and they priced it extremely well.  Thank you, Arenanet.  

[The Greyhawk.9107]

I main a Ranger and I've been waiting for something similar to this for...well pretty much since before the game even made it to Beta.  I am satisfied with the result, something that's become increasingly rare in recent times.

This, so much of this.

Yes yes, people keep saying that each and every single time, but it is simply not true (I have all armor skins unlocked).

The exact cut as well as all the beautiful details - there is no medium armor of such high quality and appeal in the game. Most have weird cuts, e.g. with super high tight collars, and lack a love for detail (or have weird adornments like throwing blades), that I don't consider good at all.

That sounds like a challenge.

Don't forget to read my edit above before you jump to it. 😉

[Elricht Kaltwind.8796]

Finally, the look I've wanted for my main character since pre-launch. Let us hope and pray that this direction means that we'll see a lot less shiny, glowy and obnoxious aesthetics coming back to the game.

[kharmin.7683]

For me, I don't like the way in which the cloak pins to the shoulders.  /shrug   Glad that others enjoy it, though.  I mean, it's a nice addition, but it doesn't resonate enough with me for any of my characters.

[Lyssia.4637]

Not only is the cape awesome in detail, a great "classic" look that, at least in my opinion, can be used by all classes well, but extra, extra 💖and 🍻 for making all three variations free to apply.  That is just downright AWESOME of you, Anet!!!

Capes in GW2 tend to work best with shoulder skins that hide the part where the cape connects to you.  The new cape is considerably wider at the top (something a lot of players have been asking for), so shoulder skins that worked well with the other capes won't necessarily work well with this one.
