Now everyone saves on iPads, the cost increased by a few thousand folds and you'll have to pay for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulGuardian.6203 Posted September 3, 2019 Author Share Posted September 3, 2019 Fair enough.As long as there are some initial free ones. I wouldn't mind buying a few extra slots.Bring it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to urge anyone to not expect these features to be free. They are the PERFECT kind of Revenue-generating QoL thing that makes this business model work; it's not something you need, but sure as anything it's something that everyone wants. I'm going to bet that's the reason it's taking 'a long time' ... because they aren't going to make any positive impact selling something that isn't exactly done as they want it.

Matoro.9708 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 I'd expect 2 free at least. If it's just 1, what will you swap from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taygus.4571 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Don't get too hopeful. Build templates is aimed at "dedicated players", which hints at possibly being legendary only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a build template won't change that.It will.Imagine you have two elementalist.Instead of going through both, you only have to change one. Save the build, and load it into the other.I spoken to people in game that have 5 or more elementalists.Hence, build templates usefulness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anchoku.8142 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 I can see Arenanet giving one for free, maybe two, and selling more for gems.One build slot means you can save a favorite and revert to it quickly from any changes you make. It is not useless and it lets all players beta-test it for Arenanet instead of releasing it only for those paying gems (who might be more justifiably irate at bugs.)
