Guild Wars 2

Hey,

first of all: English is not my native language, that’s why I will try to explain everything in detail.

I have 2 Weapons, a Legendary Weapon (Sunrise) and a Precursor (The Hunter), on two different characters (Sunrise on a Guardian and The Hunter on an Engineer).

Question 1:
I want to transmute Sunrise onto a level 2 blue Greatsword, so I can use it with my newly created Warrior. I use a Transmutation Crystal and…
Step 1: Select Sunrise as my “Skin” for the new Weapon.
Step 2: Select the level 2 blue Greatsword’s Stats for the new Weapon.
Step 3: Pick no Sigil/replace the Sigil with a lowlevel sigil before transmuting.

Now I should have a level 2 Greatsword with Sunrise skin on it – right?
While leveling my Warrior, I will regularly transmute Sunrise’s Skin to higher level Greatswords.

When I finally reach level 80 and use a Transmutation Splitter on my transmuted Sunrise, will I be able to retrieve Sunrise as a legendary Weapon?

Question 2:
I transmute The Hunter’s Skin (Note: The Hunter is soulbound to my Engineer, which is why I transmute it) onto a level 2 blue Rifle. I then put the new Weapon (with The Hunter as a skin) into the inventory of my Mesmer – who, as you all know – can’t use a rifle.

If I now use a transmutation splitter and retrieve The Hunter, will it be soulbound to my Mesmer? Even though the Mesmer can’t use the rifle? Can I still build The Predator then?

The reason, why I am asking is: I want to delete all my characters and start over with a new character. But I don’t want to delete my soulbound Precursor/my soulbound Legendary – i atleast want to finish The Predator and Eternity in order to sell them on the TP.

Thanks for reading!

Q1: yep you got it right.
Q2: again spot on, which means your mesm will have to finish crafting the complete predator IF you used the splitter as you described, or transfer it to another char before you splitter it.

Awesome, thanks for your help, Kajin!

@Q2: Yeah, I just want to finish crafting The Predator and then sell it; sadly I soulbound The Hunter too early. Oh well. As long as the investment isn’t completely screwed, everything is fine.

well best of luck
Myself I’m saving up to buy the Predator haha, but you’ll be done with yours and sold it by time I reach halfway. I know the pain of having soulbound legendaries, I got 2 Bolts rusting, I only play my engie now. I already passed the Bolts between all my sword carrying-able professions/characters. Wish was a gemstore item to make unbind them to sell or at least gift to someone.
