Warrior Gauntlets Would be Fun

Someone threw this idea on the PvP forum so just wanted to reflect that idea on here.

Straight up fists like a tekken or street fighter type style game with some mobility and hard hitting moves from a warrior. 
ideas could include:

Shoryuken-type skill- this would be a skill that knocks a foes up into the air for some good damage and cc,  would look awesome. This is the 5 skill

falcon punch- type skill- a mobility based big wind up attack that would lunch the attacker forward with a massive punch. Maybe a cc daze or stun at the end like dragon slash. This is the 4 skill.

Hundred hand slap- type skill- basically a “hundred blades” style skill but with mobility and using the fists (just like street fighter). This is the 3 or 2 skill.

Leaping punch-type skill- a leaping punch that has some mobility also and does good damage. Maybe throw some might on there too (before the attack hits so that the attack itself is effected by might also). This is the 3 or 2 skill.

auto attack punches- basically left and right hooks that have boxer-like animations. Maybe 2 left hooks followed by a big right hook with might or fury on top.  The 1 skills.

Unless Fists become a fundamentally new, two-handed weapon type, this won't work.

If not a two-handed weapon, auto attacks are always based on the right-handed weapon, That means, the hypothetical Focus/Focus weapon set would only see auto punches with the right fist.

If I did my research right, there are 316 Axe skins in the game. If "war gauntlet" was added, it would have 1 starter skin plus any they add. There would be none in the Black Lion sets, or any previous sets. Would people be happy with that?

Plus, gauntlet is already an armor piece, so there would need to be some new system | UI option to hide one gauntlet to show another.

Anet hasn't added any new weapons in 11 years, nor have they repurposed any weapons ("dual shields"), so your best bet is to propose something within the framework of the game. A new elite spec, perhaps, maybe with a kit that replaces whatever weapons you have equipped with fist attacks.

They could increase the the speed and damage of Rampage. Make immunity to incoming movement impeding conditions instead of reducing their effects and increase the duration of anti CC skills. Pushback should be combo with auto engage connected to ensure positive engagement after the target is pushback while stump should having a combo connected to the hammer or mace to ensure positive engagement after the target is floored.

Rampage could've been removed and turned into a Berserker transformation (similar to how Guardian Tomes were removed and came back as Firebrand)

Yeha that’s another thing they could do, just make Ramp a “toolkit” type thing where you just use fists and can swap back to weapons.
