Wardrobe ~ Not what I thought it would be
When I noticed that it required transmutation charges to use your collected skins, I LOL'd when realizing that wardrobe is not saving anyone gold, gems or time invested, like we all thought it was going to

Account-wide dyes ~ All yes
This is awesome and the 300 unidentified dyes that I received from a-net for having "overlapping dyes on differenct characters", was also awesome

New GM Traits ~ eh, it didn't change much so far, meta builds are still pushing the same fronts in PvE and PvP
None of these new traits are very cohesive with other pre-existing traits so they aren't really changing or offering new "full build" structures at all
They simpy offer some odd path to take at the end of your trait line that screws up the dynamic of traits selected before hand
Example: the GM trait in the Guardian Power line "Burns deal 33% more damage" ~~ Why in the hell would I select a condition trait when I'm adding 30 (or 6) points to my power line?
This is but one example of these traits being selectable in the wrong places, wrong tiers

Fixes to Sigils ~ A lot of good changes were made here
In fact, OP AoE condition spam has been lightly deal with due to dual triggering sigils: Generosity/Purity "which works on 9 and 10 seconds on hits"
Both remove a condition and generosity sends a condition back at the target
This really helps turn the tide of the condition spam meta, back towards solid, reliable damage
And that is but one of the good changes that have been

Fixes to Runes ~ This is all trash
They seriously limited options towards building unique setups
And they killed the potency of monk/water/earth +45% boon sets
Now you can only achieve +15% sets which is a load of shit
There are a lot of good and more useful sets now, granted
But you'll never see half/half or 2/2/2 setups again
They just killed the reason to get creative

Courtyard in spvp ~ This is what we were all waiting to see
A deathmatch with no bases, RA/TA style, 10 vs 10
Feels good to have sort of a zerg vs zerg in a controlled environment, small map, even numbers
I've been having a lot of fun with it

Made over 400g from sigils. Thanks anet.
Agree on the wardrobe, also think they could have added a feature to STORE your stuff in wardrobe so I don't have to waste two full bags on them.

my characters are wearing glasses now. Your wardrobe arguments are invalid.

Meet Ted. Ted is a Guild Wars 2 player. Ted prides himself on his ever-growing collection of dolls. Not action figures, dolls. There's a "furry pride" bumper sticker on his baby blue Toyota Prius. He's got an extensive collection of emoticons memorized, which he uses in the most liberal fashion imaginable. Nothing puts a bigger smile on Ted's soy latte drinking face than complimenting your particular shade of periwinkle while playing what is now the world's most elaborate online game of dress-up.

"I am usually not savvy to the color green, but gosh Gary, that dye is simply ravishing on your Ascalonian Pauldrons! :) XD =P"

He's eagerly awaiting his midnight paycheck from Staples so he can buy more transmutation charges to add to his town clothes wardrobe to roleplay with.

...and I've been saying this from the very beginning, including on reddit, where herp derp downvote-happy douchebags can only downvote for others' opinion that they don't agree with, without thinking logically.

Only good thing was that you only need one legendary to have multiple skins, and ascended gear is all account bound.

This entire update was as I expected it to be, a huge disappointment. Meh, I've been playing a lot more D3 RoS and DotA2 recently anyway in between studying.
