Asura necro: so stuck with the terribad light armor helmets. The only helmet I can find that I like is the Order of whispers one. However, not knowing it would actually matter I chose Vigil when I rolled my toon.
Anyone know if there is any other light armor helmet with the same look/skin as the order of whispers?
I have checked everything I can find and it looks like a no go, but thought I would ask here before giving up.
Level up another character and join the Order of Whispers.
Buy the hood.
Transmute it onto a white quality light helmet – very important that it is white.
The resulting item, with the stats of the crappy helmet and appearance of the TOoW hood, will be account bound so you can chuck it in your bank and pick it up for future transmuting on your main.
Seriously? Sweet, thanks for the info, much appreciated!
Yup. As long as the the item you keep the base stats of is of white quality it ends up being Account Bound rather than Soulbound. That’s how some people, for example, are able to get the Thief starter hood on their Ranger.
Doesn’t have to be white, blues work aswell.
Does this work on Cultural Armor/Weapons as well?
Don’t know about cultural armor… but cultural weapons don’t have a race requirement. An asura can go buy a norn’s cultural weapon for example.
It works with cultural armor, yes, but it maintains the “Race Restriction” field. ie. You could transfer the cultural armor anywhere, but can’t use it on other races. Cultural weapons are not race-restricted and can be bought by any race, so they work as expected.
Doesn’t have to be white, blues work aswell.
No, blues do not work – the end result will be Soulbound.
have heard that both blue and white work, since neither of those quality can be actually “bound”. the end-result will still say soulbound, but is in fact account bound. i’ve only heard this from others though. i did it with a white item (and since i assume whites will be cheaper to obtain anyways…), and it came out account-bound.
but go white anyways.

Yes they do. :P
I know from personal experience. I have vigil boots, priory shield, whisperer chest on my warr, all are transmuted with blues I had laying around. I’m not making claims I can’t back up.
