cbFRESH.7193 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 After playing several hours of End of Dragons, I have found myself reminiscing about the good ole days of GW1. Does anyone else think it would be awesome to see Dragon Gauntlets, Dread Mask, Mask of Mo Zing, etc from GW1 as skins in GW2? They've given us some of the Primeval armor skins and Chaos gauntlets but I'd love to see more. I posted a ticket to Arenanet and they advised I post this idea here to see how much interest it generates. Lets bring them back! 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Greyhawk.9107 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 DEAR GOD YES!! Far more than can be reasonably expected to ever be included and a short list is hard for me to settle on. I would like them to bring back one or two more assassin armors, the Vabbian set was always one of my favorites, and I'd like to see something from the various Luxon and Kurzick armor sets. As for weapons I've a few favorites that I'd really love to see: the Emerald Blade for one-handed swords, Toriimo's Torch/Embercrest Staff, the EotN version of the Asura Longbow, the classic Mesmer Cane wand, and perhaps the Oppressor weapon set since there's already GW2 version of the Destroyer and Tormented sets. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zaoda.1653 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 I miss most of the armour and weapon skins from GW1. Especially the tormented shield and black dyed voltaic spear. The GW2 version of the tormented shield is fugly, in my opinion. It isn't as detailed, isn't as large, isn't as stunning/beautiful as the GW1 version. The black dyed voltaic spear was also one of those weapons that had that WOW factor, especially with the pulsating/electric animation. I really miss GW1 armour and weapons. I was really happy when I noticed the "ancient canthan" medium shoulders, gloves, and boots, were as similar to: https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Assassin_Vabbian_armor As we'll probably ever get in our GW2 lifetime, so I immediately re-skinned my thief for the ancient canthan skins so that I could get a relatively similar look to the assassin vabbian armour. I just hope they don't come back as outfits, because I won't buy them in that case - I want individual skins - we don't need any more 'onesies'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The medium Ancient Canthan armor is analogous to the general design of most of the Factions assassin armors, which is why its the only EoD armor I'm ok with, but it still pales in comparison to the Vabbian assassin armor (and not because it lacks the blade/spikes).

Considering the amount of gw1 armor skins we have as outfits I'm sadly expecting any more gw1 armor skins to come back the same way 😕 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't do a ton of armor mixing back in my GW1 days so if provided with those sets I'll likely not need to be able to mix them in GW2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tseison.4659 Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 I would love to see the obsidian armor for the Ritualist in game 🙂 along with some other Ritualist armor sets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollowhisper.1093 Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 GW1 Ritualist and also Necro/Mesmer here and yes, I second that. I quite liked the Seitung armor for the Ritualist and I think it was Krytan armor for my Necro. So yes please, do give them back as an outfit or outright armor set please. 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nutri.1385 Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 The Factions armour set were amazing, just look at the Exotic Assassin sets. I also love every monk armor, I was always sad for not digging this profession enough, I'd love to have a pretty monk in GW1. Nightfall armor sets are also dope, especially the Primeval sets. All Ritualist armors look kitten too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dusanyu.4057 Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 the one thing that i was sad not to see was the Return of the Luxon Turtle man heavy armor (and they made the asset for the spear of Archimorus animation) and The Kurzic "Batman" Heavy armor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
