Lightbulb Larger Armor Pictures

Hi.

Something I'd like to see changed is larger armor pics at armor crafters & armor collectors.

the pics are so small that it's hard to see what armor looks like (especially if it's detailed armor) & i don't want to waste my rare materials, gold .. heck even common materials on armor i can't see very well.

when we click on what armor we want to see...i would like it if they atleast doubled the armor picture at the bottom by the CRAFT (or EXCANGE) & GOODBYE buttons.

I think that'd help out a lot.

That would be cool. We have already cape design preview so why not preview for armor sets too and also different dyes. People would actually look more unique because they can test it without wasting huge amount of money.

i have gone to guildwiki to look at armor. but guildwiki isn't labled as to where the armor comes from. for those that don't know everything about this game (myself included) we don't know where to find some armor.

when i find an armor crafter & i TRY to look & the armor, the teeny tiny picture (especially on detailed armor) doesn't give me much to go on. can't tell if i really like it or not. or if i wanted to mix-n-match armor. how would it look?

that's why i think we should be able to see the armor pics better.

Guildwiki does tell you where to get armor. It gives collector names and locations.

Ive used to loads of times in the past when checking necro and ele armor and ive been able to find where to craft it.

While you can go to wiki to look up these pictures, when a new game comes out you can't just go and see the armours, cause no one has them yet.

I dont know where your looking or not looking on guidwiki, but from my experience it lists locations for all collectors and crafters.

Weapon collectors, armor collectors, armor crafters, weapon crafters etc etc...

...for both tyria and Cantha.

Guildwiki does have all the information - but the tiny little icon from the armor crafter is still too small!

Players shouldn't have to minimize the game to go online to see guildwiki as to what the amor may look like at full size.
