• You can draw inspiration for your designs from the regions of Tyria, Cantha, or Elona
• All you have to do is send them a drawing, sketch, or printed image of an original concept for a new weapon, shield, or focus item and submit it to the dev folks for judging.
• Prizes/perks: If they choose your design, it will be placed permanently in the Guild Wars world’s arsenal of weapons and you will be given website recognition. Oh and you’ll get Guild Wars goodies too, of course.
