why is there a hide weapon option

[Cagkan]

Making whales protect them selves from shame ? xD

For pvp. Enemy won't see your weapons makes it harder to hunt specific builds.

So you can leech off dungeons since people cant see your damage and there's no dps meter

So toxic fuklings won't kick you out of a dungeon if they see your blue weapons. calling it "leeching" is the toxicity i just mentioned. i mean how the ♥♥♥♥ else could you get the purple weapons you aiming for? XD

at the first weeks of the release i had a "pro gamer", who came in my dungeon group and left it immediately with saying someting like "nice weapon builds". i guess if you dont play crossbow and dagger for highest dmg, then youre a noob for those pro gamers. they dont even need to see the stats of your weapons to be toxic

[Saakuzyo]

well mostly only to hide what you play on them so no one can copy it to easy. there is no hiding with p2w since you get so much stuff so fast. so theres not rly anything to hide.

I use the function to hide my weapons in the preparation phases before boon/rift/seige fights.

I put on a ♥♥♥♥ xbow and dagger (no traits, but they cant see that ;) ) and so folks dont know im a healer for the first few min of a fight.

I am Healer with 3k Gearscore and had a blue Wand, because this blue Wand has better traits then all purple Wands i got. When i enter Dungeon people flaming about this blue weapon so I hide my weapons.

If you shame others for their clothes, that says enough about you. Same as if you shame women in real life for their clothes. Hello?! It's 2024. Let people wear and be who they want to be.

It happened 2 times. One Time direct after joining, someone flamed about my blue Wand and started kick vote.
One time, they kicked me out right before T1 Boss in Abyss because i dont make enough dmg (as Healer) to enemy because of blue Wand :D I could do this dungeon in sleep.
Last time when T2 dropped and i thought, lets try T2 - Someone flammed my weapon and then left dungeon.

People tend to forget they were also once gearing up and or learning the mechanics of a dungeon for example. As if they knew before the game was released all the mechanics and have never died because they failed them...you find these "special" people in every game sadly.
I'm always more than happy to help newer players learn a dungeon if it's their first time. Comes naturally to me as a support main i guess, plus i'm pretty chilled after already being in MMOs since 1999 with Everquest, i've seen it all before. The toxic players come and go, luckily we can mute them.

Yes some people don't realise many traited blue items are much better than fresh-ish purple items until they too are fully powered up.
Same people also don't realise a specific PvP blue mix set is far more effective that a full PvE purple set, at least if you are after defensive traits like i need as a healer.
