Thread: Hopes for the 4.2 Glamour System Revisions

You get piles of transmog for free if you pvp win or lose fights since you progress with rewards no matter the out come of the PvP match. Don't need to spend a single cent on GW2 cash shop items since everything can be obtained for free in this game even cash shop items since the game allows players to obtain cash items by converting ingame gold to Gems.

I just want a glamour log so my glamour activities don't have to include deleting glamours for inventory space. Everything else would be icing on the cake.

I'm curious. Have they ever commented on the bikini tanks, when it comes to their various glamour-related excuses, or do bikini tanks get a free pass?

I haven't played in years, but when I did you could easily farm those in game. Did they take out the ability to earn them in game?



The glamour restrictions are silly and counterproductive in many ways including financially.

End game is pretty stale with the current restrictions. You can spot what people are wearing a mile away and it's sad. A lot of creativity and player enjoyment is lost because a developer wants to retain a sense of lore that no longer exists considering the bikini clad chocobo head wearing players that run around.

Hell, even the developers bull headed restriction on dying gear in the cash shop is losing them revenue. Why does their vision of how we should look matter more than players enjoyment and the additional revenue they would generate if they stopped being so bull headed?

As a side note, I quit SWTOR a few months after release. I couldn't take my characters all looking like clowns or end game like everyone else. Back then they had no outfit system so what every you found you looked like. I came back when they introduced the cash shop and probably spent a good 100 dollars every month buying outfits for a while. I don't spend money on outfits, but I still subscribe to this day without actually playing. I log on with every new pack and buy up all the new outfits for in game money. I've been doing this for 2 or more years mainly to collect outfits but rarely to leave my "house".

Opening up the outfit system and allowing all gear in the cash shop to be dyed would easily keep players like me around for years to basically do nothing but play dress up and occasionally do holiday content.

-Glam log, thou I don't need the space (only got the reg 2 retainers & their not even half full each) I know others do
-& eather "if a class u have can were it then u can glam it... as long as it isn't a blue or purple text item" or "Item's bellow X level, probably 50 or 60, can now be used as glamour on any class, save Tome, Relic or Hunt seal gear" (srry as much I I would love no glam restrictions I know there will still be some in eather case if the Dev's did it)

I reality I just wann know why Yoshi-p said it would take a whole hr to explain & badly wanna use old gear on any class... so hard to find dyable skirts & hotpants for glam only to find its was made for 1-2 classes when I want it for all (trying since day 1 to make a glam, i like, that I can use across all DoW/DoM classes... almost every class has got a few I like but well u know my debacle by now, gota live with this frilly crap set at moment... & trying to justify buying the Liberator set from mogstore -_-!)

Yeah, I can do without access to the new glamour features costing real money.

If they did that, I'd be pretty disappointed.

Two more days, and hopefully we'll get some news.
