Guild Wars 2

Since we’re getting full sets of harvesting tools, can we get a preview for them or turn them into wardrobe skins for universal tools (with npc converter for existing ones of course).

I still haven’t gotten my soulbound gathering tools converted to accountbound.

You and me both.

You can upgrade your old soulbound gathering tools by un-equipping them into your inventory and then speaking to a Black Lion Weapons Specialist. He’ll have a new dialogue line which allows you to upgrade your old tools to account-bound for free. Source.

It’s not that I don’t know how, there’s no reason to and it doesn’t affect me in any way.

I’m not going to swap my gathering tools every time I switch characters (Eternal Alchemy knows how bad it is just swapping Ascended from my Mesmer to my Necromancer… and back).

I have a bank character with a bag full of 250 use Gathering Tools (and a bag of 250 use Basic Salvage Kits). My main character has Infinite Tools. All of my other characters (at level 80) hold 100/250 Use Gathering Tools, 1 250 use Basic Salvage Kit, and 1 Mystic Salvage Kit.

There’s no reason for me to utilize the account-bound aspect of them considering how easy it is to swap characters (but how hard/painful it is to swap gear).
