VDAC.2137 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 If I hold onto this, might more gliders eventually be added as options or “what you see is what you get.” While I’ve generally been very happy with the options from the War Eternal Supply Drops, nearly all the glider options on the voucher are a wing design which isn’t my thing. I would LOVE the River of Souls or Arachnid gliders and don’t care at all if they don’t come with a backpack (I almost always use backpacks for stats only). Thought it couldn’t hurt to ask — thanks! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 No one, other than those employed by ArenaNet knows. You can take the chance that the next time the NPC is updated/returns there will be different options on offer. According to the Wiki, there was no change from the last time these vouchers were offered (Aug-Sep 2018).Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayakaru.6583 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 I doubt it.It's not that you're subtracting a skin from the gem store.It's a premade list with entered options.Meaning the same skins will always remain available as options.If new skins are ever added to the game, anet would have to manually add them to the list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udolpho.1209 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 You could wait, but chances are it's fixed. They consider gliders and gliders+backpacks as two completely separate categories. This particular box is for gliders+backpacks, so it's unlikely they would change the type of this item altogether to add backpacks without gliders. So you're not going to see the two gliders you mentioned.Since you don't particularly like any of the choices... I would wait. NOT because I believe the selection list will change (though I suppose it's possible) but because at some future date you might have a new character that one of those gliders/backpacks would suit. Since you really don't care for any of them atm, waiting won't negatively impact you, other than it taking up a storage slot in the bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illconceived Was Na.9781 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 FYI they did update the Outfit voucher to include 4 more skins (none of the most recent and nor the exclusive skin from giveaways/contests; only the four added before some arbitrary cutoff date).Presumably they'll add additional glider+backpack options (though not glider-alone skins). Some day.Keep in mind, it was ~8 months between introduction of the first BL Vouchers and the first update (and that to only one of the vouchers). So it's worth asking: do you want to go 8-16 months without any of the skins, for the off-chance that you might like one of the 4-5 skins that might be added in the future?

No sense choosing something now if I’m not going to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casualkenny.9817 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Fyi, there is a 3rd category of vouchers (4th is weapons), for standalone gliders. Think the 4 were last released for direct sale last anniversary or Christmas or something. They are also cheaper than the glider back vouchers, since they match the release price of the respective categories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mbelch.9028 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Glad you asked this question. I wanted the new jetpack+glider, was disappointed it wasn't included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To set future expectations (for whoever might read the thread) None of the vouchers have included the most recent options (4-8 months lead time, it seems)ANet has never discounted new items quickly after release (sometimes they release an item with a lower introductory price; they try not to annoy early adopters by changing the price so soon).In other words, never expect recent additions to the game to be offered in the vouchers.
