with the intro of skill template for, let see, I think more than half a year ago, I only now just realised that, the skill template isn't quite complete, it needs another function that I don't know how to call it, so i call it a build vault.

you know how whenever you needed a build, we have to leave the game, go in search of a build online, copy it, if the code is available, paste it in the template code box and then save it?

With the build vault, we don't have to go in search of build, nor do we have to submit builds on the web page anymore. All can be done in the game through your skill template box. Submit your own build and download other player's build using your skill template dialogue box.

It is a function where players can submit their build to a kind of vault thing that is accessible by all other players and the build submitted to the build vault will carry the players in game name and a build name the player give it, and it will be rated, by other players.

Just a thought.

ohh me like this idea.

another thing to add but this is my QQ

why is the armor temp just for what you are wearing atm why can't it be for the pvp items that are in your characters invontory.

it would make setting up monks much easier just make em all and temp it and then load it shield sets ready to go.

or make a click and drag screen to put your armor and weapon gear in.

To me, putting something like PvX directly in the game feels like a good reason for everyone to only use the best builds, putting everyone that doesn't have access to them at a major disadvantage. Besides, I don't know how many trash builds PvX has to deal with, but if you put something like that in game, it could fill up with junk really quick if something wasn't done about it.

If it was run only of pvx then only allow access to build with good-great rating. If its a new build just copy like you would normally.

The only problem I see with this is would it cause lag while all the people try and access the vault?

Waits for some griefer to fill the vault with Echo Mending builds and his friends to rate it as the best build ever.

Honestly, imo if you are too lazy to make you own build you should at least put in some effort to find them rather then have Anet offer them to you on a silver platter.

Btw, PvX and GamePendium should cover all your build needs.
