Guild Wars 2

Okay, so I have a minor dilemma.

My level 80 character has a very pretty pair of shattered dragon wings I don’t want to have to get rid of. The character I want to wear the spinal blades isn’t levelled enough to be of any use whatsoever in LA atm (I’m fairly sure she’ll die the first time she gets in range of Scarlet’s wee bombs).

I want to use the shortcut to the final battle, but to do it, I need to wear the spinal blades.
Here’s the question:

Is it true that the Spinal Blades back item reverts to Account Bound (as opposed to soulbound) when you upgrade it?

Yes, this is true. Each time you upgrade it is reverts to account bound.

\o/ awesome, thanks!
