Guild Wars 2

Hi Guys,

Noob question but i see all the super weapon skins on the trading post. How are people doing this as i understood they were all account bound?

The ones bought from the vendor, yes. You can also get rare ones from random chests, RNG <3

They come from two places – a 1-in50 chance of dropping from (boss?) chests and the ones bought with bubbles. I’m guessing one of those 2 sources is NOT account bound.

The skins purchased from Moto for baubble bubbles are account-bound and Masterwork quality.

However, Rare versions of the skins also drop from the end-of-stage Splendid chests (if you play on Normal mode, chests don’t appear on infantile) with a 1-in-50 chance to drop. Those ones are not account bound, and can thus be sold on the TP.

The only skin that can’t drop from the end chests is the Backpack. That one is exclusively purchased from Moto and is thus unsellable on the TP.

is there any usable difference between the purchased (green) and the found (yellow) skins? like, once you apply that skin to a weapon.

One is given by luck and makes you rich. The other is earned by hard work and makes you poor.

If you are actually planning on using it then one takes only half the effort of the other and it’s guaranteed.
