    Why is glam quest level 50 and not like 15?

    For reals?

    So that you level up and enjoy what the game actually has to offer instead of parking at lv15 and wasting time with the lv1 fluff glamour game.

    1. there is not many gear lv 1-15 a new player can use or buy for glamour
    2. it give a new player anticipation to reach first time lv 50
    3. it give players time to learn how to earn gil before wasting it.
    4. the time between new gears is at lv 15 much lower than at lv 50

    Because God forbid you might want to enjoy the game the way you want to, right? Not everyone plays MMOs to reach the top.

    I agree, they made dyes at lv15, should've done the same with glamours.

    It is an incentive to have you progress through the game. Not everything gets handed to you in life.

    Racial armor looks way better than most/all pre 30 gear, just as an example.

    Doing a quest and paying form prisims isn't "having it handed to you."

    Lv 50 is not the top. It is now mid game.
    And dyes are cheap and can't used on dungeon gear

    There is still the cost.
    A new lv15-30 player don't earn enough gil to glamour everytime his gear new after everytime he get new gear.

    You seem to miss my point. Ok, you begin the game for the first time. Lvl 1, you get a mount, you get glamour, you get all metallic dyes, you get a house , everything you get as a reward for leveling up is instead just handed to you. Now you see the point? If things are just given right at the start, then there is nothing to work towards.

    You're being silly. Mount is msq, glam is just a quality of life side quest. Doubt many new players have the silly gill to get a house.

    As to having Gil for glams, many sastasha drops are 20k+ on my server. That's 10 glams.

    Just because it would require them to earn the Gil doesn't mean they shouldn't have the option to do it.

    Also you guys act like glamoring is some huge privilege. Guild wars 2 has it fr first level. It's just a way for people to enjoy leveling more (by looking cooler instead of ugly low level gear.)
