Guild Wars 2

This is one of the best addition to Legendary weapons there could be. This should also be available to new ascended armour when released.

Something that will take time to craft x6, this would be create if I could stick to armour set and change its stats outside of combat for various builds.

hmmm i want ascended gear to be able to change stats too.

I would be totally OK with additional time gating if ascended gear could do that.

…now if only I could make my trait panel “legendary” so I can change that on the fly, easily, between different build load outs.

Just give us Legendary everything so we can skip this interm tier BS.

I think this kind of feature is actually LEGENDARY and should be EXCLUSIVE to them. I dare say ANet agrees and won’t be adding this to any other equipment types.

not really.
if they are truly legendary, they can change skins too.

This feature is being added to legendaries because legendaries take a ludicrous amount of effort to create (much more than ascended), and before this update the only way to change stats was to spend money on a fine transmutation crystal; (it was basically milking legendary weapon holders for gold/gems if they ever wanted to use their legendary with a different build).

Ascended just doesn’t take as much work to get as a legendary does, so I don’t think it warrants this kind of ability. You’ll have to wait for when/if they create legendary armor/accessories, but I don’t think that’ll happen in all honesty.

Yea it’s amazing isn’t it?
Now we can pick berserker stats and change to berserker stats when we do other content.

its a great bonus to legendary owners. They should put in a feature like this for the sigils as well, since switching builds usually means a different set of sigils as well as stats

legendaries have a prestige value besides being convenient able to change stats.

to balance it up, legendary gear will have all changeable stat combo readily available while ascended will need to add them one by one.

for example

craft:
ascended armor chest berserker stats
ascended armor chest soldier stats

combine them together, ascended armor chest can change into berserker or soldiers

craft another
ascended armor chest valkyrie’s stats
combine this with the existing ascended armor chest with berserkers and soldiers.

now the ascended armor can change between 3 stats combo.
legendary will have all stat combo available, all existing and future new stat combos.

however, it would be much better if legendary gear can change the skin as well.
