Daniel Handler.4816 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Helmets, shoulders, gloves, and backpacks can be hidden. Armor and weapons can be reskinned. But if one wants to equip a legendary trinket they have to display the effect? In addition, the legendary trinkets stack and it seems only fair if you have multiple you should get to choose which of the modes is shown. For example if you have all three but prefer the look of two, you are disincentivized from wearing one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashen.2907 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Hadn't thought about this aspect, but solid point. Having your character appearance dictated to you because you want a particular mechanics option does seem counter to the gw2 experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gop.8713 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Yeah, seems reasonable. With the effort required to attain legendaries, an equal effort should be made to ensure that they are a benefit to their owners . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChillyKoti.1928 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 this is why I don't care for Legendary Trinkets for now. I don't want their effects. But their stats are the same as sscended so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blood Red Arachnid.2493 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 This is one of the reasons why I don't get any of the infusions, either. Yes, looking like a void of space is cool... for awhile. But there's no way to turn it off without buying another piece of ascended gear and changing it manually.

It's not a perfect solution but it isn't the worst.Just giving the trinkets a toggle would go a long way though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gop.8713 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 I wonder how complicated it would be to implement though. We've had things before that seemed simple but apparently weren't . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skotlex.7580 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 It is possible we won't get a toggle for accessory looks any time soon. What might happen (someday) is a wardrobe unlock system for special effects. This means infusions will become accountbound if they are added to the wardrobe. It also means you need each infusion once to be able to stack up effects. Anet may decide a character has three aura slots, which would help curb down effects from characters who stack infusions (much to their chagrin). That would also let people select which of the legendary trinkets effects they want on their character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etterwyn.5263 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 While we're at it, can the Juggernaut armor effect be toggled too? I was so excited to craft my hammer but I transmuted it because of what it does to my armor! :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought in a way I'm glad it saved me having to do the Draconis Mons grind (I have pretty much everything else done), but I just don't like the Aurora effect.The only infusions I have are the Red and Grey ones that dropped in Halloween, since they are very subtle, and serve as accents to my characters, rather than 'wth is pouring out of them?'.

Schokonelke.4387 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I can't agree more. I use different armor and weapon looks on my main character, so I've not gone for legendary armor or the like, as I wish to keep my differing looks. Trinkets would be the perfectlegendaries to go for, except they have the effects that one cannot turn of. They completely clash with my look, leaving menot wanting to use them. It's a shame really, since a simple on/off toggle would fix this issue. I really don't understand why Anet hasn't allowed this option so far and would like to know their reasoning.Especially with the new wvw/pvp trinkets (of which the effects are even less fitting to any look I may come up with) I'm rather dissappointed to still not have the option.

Treacy.4067 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Yeah I stopped making Aurora and Vision because I realized I'd be stuck with auras I do not want. You can't sell them either so what's the point in spending time, money, and materials making them when you can just use ascended? I also think the two new ones look ridiculous so I'm not going to bother with those either. It's nice for those that like that sort of thing I guess.

Cyndercat.7615 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 This is 2nd most thing I wish for in the game right now..Idk what the 3rd effect even is suppost to be but its weird and ugly. All my legendary trinkets are banished to an unplayed alt for now since I cant turn off the effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realize that the two new ones can be made without the effects? In fact you craft the slumbering version and then that is used to add effects. Just stop at slumbering.

Just stop at slumbering.They could go the reverse route with the older trinkets: add slumbering versions and a MF recipe to change the trinkets into that. Maybe another recipe to allow us to change back if we change our minds. I'd put my trinkets to sleep in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really enjoyed the aura when i start using, but after 3 week i cannot use any of them anymore. I wish we could transmute or just hide them.
