Guild Wars 2

Once you align with a faction of the Pact (Vigil, Order of Whispers, Durmand Priory ) you go through their stories and eventually unlock the ability to buy the armor exclusive to that faction. Is it possible to change factions, whether through real money purchase or side quest, at any point in time of game play?

I ask because I really want a set of armor from Order, but aligned with Vigil, without knowing there were armors to be unlocked eventually. Had I known before hand, I would have picked more wisely. I’m just trying to avoid remaking a character to get the armor I want.

-Thanks

Nope, you’re stuck with that, but it’s character based. So one could be in vigil, one in whispers, and the rest in priory because the priory is the best.

You can use the transmute trick to get the order armor you want on the character you want it on though….it’s just going to cost you some transmutation crystals.

1. You buy the armor you want (using a character in that order). The armor will be soulbound.
2. You then buy a “white” item of the same type from a vendor
3. Transmute the skin you want and the stats of the white item to make the item account bound.
4. Put it in your bank, take it out with the character you want to use it on, then use another transmute crystal to transmute the skin onto the stats you want.
