The current flood of information regarding the upcoming feature update in September for Guild Wars 2 mainly concerns the hero wardrobe and the new, simplified customization options. We have summarized the key changes for you:
What am I wearing today, what will I wear tomorrow…
The first improvement concerns the equipment wardrobe in general. Armor sets and skins are now clearly separated, making it easy to see at any time whether you are dyeing something, viewing a particular equipment set, or need to use transmutation charges to make the changes visible. Speaking of viewing: No matter whether you have unlocked a specific armor set or not, in the preview you can try on all clothing sets – even if they are still locked, the interface will indicate whether they are currently available or offered at a reduced price.
Finishing Moves: Now also in the Wardrobe
The well-organized wardrobe of today also has finishing moves ready, which are now listed in the wardrobe as they are considered part of character customization.
In addition to listing your existing finishing moves, you can also see ones that you do not yet own. As with the clothing sets, you can also preview each type of amusing execution when you send your enemy back to the next waypoint in a PvP round – regardless of whether you already own the finishing move or not.
Miniatures: Available account-wide starting in September!
The biggest change likely occurs in the area of miniatures (“Minis”), as these can now be permanently unlocked for an account, thereby destroying the corresponding item. Once unlocked, any character on your account can access this mini, and the corresponding slots in your bank space will be removed once you collect the minis. If you do not want to bind your minis permanently, you can still use them by double-clicking and keep the item in case you want to sell the little companion. As expected, you can preview all miniatures even if they are not yet in your possession – this is especially handy when wanting to check out a previously unknown miniature in the trading post.
In the coming days, there will be more information on the topics “Collector’s Passion” and “Trade 2.0”. You can find the original post from the developers as usual in our sources.
