Kunavi.2407 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 We now have Jade Bot skins, I see a lot of people using them including the heavily overpriced winged cat. So where are the Gun-Saber(And accompanying sheath) skins for BladeSworn, the mortar skins for Engi and so on? It's reasonable to think those would sell just as well as Jade Bot skins if not better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freya.9075 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 may not be exactly what you want, but plasma skins kinda does what you request i think? (gun-saber) Plasma Pistol - Guild Wars 2 Wiki (GW2W) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doggie.3184 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 I just want my Grenade Kit to throw cannon balls and explosive swords (legendary effects on kits) but that is a horse long beaten into mashed potatoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linken.6345 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Op want skins for the skill gunsaber. Kinda like some want skins for mechanist robot. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega.6801 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 (edited) Going from the most recent skins. I don't want them to release new skins. I don't need bladesworns swinging a frying pan or a stop sign and I most certainly don't need a big fluffy cat skin for mechs.

SuavePuppy.2809 Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Offering skins that can only be used by one class sounds like a bad idea for both Anet and the community 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps, but the point stands. Offering skins for a weapon only usable by one profession (and an elite one at that) doesn't set a good precedent IMO. Saying this point is true for rifles is simply incorrect. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lan Deathrider.5910 Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Technically the skins would be available on the account, they'd just need to use the right spec/profession... But they could just come from collection achievements instead of the gemstore. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It absolutly stands true, lol, as someone who crafted HMS Divinity and never got to make use of it till 5~ years later with Engi buff because Deadeye Rifle became a big failure and it was the least used weapon category in the game. You're being really apathetic. Anet has made countless skins that have very minimal access/use across classes. That is a ton of design work for something few can use. Skins for frequently used class mechanics would probably get more screentime than them if it were a thing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're trying to equate a weapon skin that can be used on multiple classes to a cosmetic that can only be used by one class exclusively regardless of balance. Popularity is not comparable to exclusivity. No. It's a bad idea. 3 hours ago, Doggie.3184 said: Anet has made countless skins that have very minimal access/use across classes.

Drakz.7051 Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 It's an interesting idea but then we'd had even more cash shop items than we already need. Because knowing ANet they wouldn't make them earnable in game (outside of BL chests anyway). Â 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryphon.2875 Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 Sad. The main reason I don't use that class is the gunsaber clashes with my outfit. 😠Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Personally, while I would like to see E-spec core customisation (like mechanist Jade Bot skins), I would begin to worry that future E-specs might be designed around selling skins. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
