Cultural armor should be sold as skins
I don’t go to reddit. Don’t care for the site.
I need a TLDR.
That being said, I only bought them for the skin.
They are still better than fractal weapons that have no stats.
Basically they should be convenient to use when you’re dumping 119g for a set. Right now you HAVE to buy gems for transmutation crystals because of their mediocre stats. They should be sold as skins or be treated as dungeon sets, where the equipment is exotic
Exotic or skins, I 100% – agree at least for T3 (perhaps keep T1 and T2 as they are).
Also, T3 is just as hard, if not arguably harder, to obtain than dungeon armor. Either way, it’s on par in terms of earning, but it’s rare and requires Transmutation Crystals to get good stats on it – and you need to buy those transmutation crystals with real $ or in game gold to get the gems to get the crystals (which is A LOT of in-game gold). So if you take that into account, the cost is much higher for T3 armor than it is for dungeon sets, with an on-par workload to obtain it and it’s not even exotic (or a skin), which seems absurd.

Exactly. Since backpack items also have started to come out as skins, as well as the achievement equipment, I see no reason for t3 not to.
It would only have positive effects for people who already bought it also. Particularly if it just became skins (as some will have already transmuted their rares to exotics) – though people who have already transmuted should probably get Tstones in return. But honestly, if people had already transmuted their T3 with crystals and they were upgraded to exotic, rather than skins, then maybe if someone has T3 pieces they should get as many transmutation crystals as they have pieces of T3 (as I would assume that most have already used the crystals for the stats). That way, they could make them exotic without problems, either. It would be a win for everyone, either way. And I’d be much more willing to get up 119 gold for it (I love two T3 sets but can’t bring myself to go for them since they don’t give me any real benefit besides looks and I’d need to buy tstones).
