Guild Wars 2

In keeping with the philosophy of reasonably obtainable stats with harder to obtain skins you could add a cheaper to forge ascended back item with no skin.

See that tick on the back item slot ?
That lets you hide it.

Huh? What? That wasn’t the point at all.

The point was to have a non-cosmetic version that costs less, like we have with exotics. There are different versions of exotics (same stats) and generally the cooler it looks the more expensive it is to acquire.

You were asking for a version with no skin, with no mention of stats. So I pointed out the checkmark that has the same effective result.

As for stats, you might like this suggestion.
