Guild Wars 2

Why they’re rare? Why don’t make it skins or exotic with stats variety? Price is high enough to buy transmutation stones.

Money.

I would agree that Tier III Cultural Armour should be exotic considering its purchase price in gold per piece.

I was wondering about that as well, but then once you look at the stats, we’ll want to transmute them anyway. Making them exotics at least give us another option if we have no gold to transmute the cultural armor.

I actually made a thread a week ago about making Cultural and dungeon armours into skins for transmute, especially as we’re getting ascended armour soon

Issues like this have been around since the initial game release. In fact, they changed the Ascalonian Catacombs armor to be lvl 80 exotic which it wasn’t originally. I do not know why they haven’t changed it yet, but it doesn’t seem to me like they will, without some new reason, but personally I think the idea of making culturals as well as maybe even the orders armors into a transmutable skin would be a great idea.

120~ gold for t3 is not enough? It’s more then any gem-shop armor skin, 800-gem skins are 40 gold only and you don’t have to buy transmute stones.

Even better idea , Make exotic and Ascended tiers for Cultural armors . Variety is always better right?
