Guild Wars 2

At a prize of up to 30g for one piece it is a joke to only receive a rare item.

Sure, cultural armor is bought for the skin only, but it’s a bad joke to create an armor that everybody – without exception – will transmute.

well honestly , i dont really care , they cost so much already is just adding like more 15g to the total price.

Still , this would help to make it a little cheaper.

TBH, long before the time I’m affording cultural T3 I’d have a full set of exotic to transmute to it anyway.

Yeah just transmuted T3 chest. The only way you can have 30g right when you hit 80 (without getting VERY lucky drops ect.) is buying gold.

There are so many other ways to get exotics with the stats you want, I like having to work for the skin.

I don’t understand the people that are honestly against this suggestion. The T3 Cultural Armors are already a ridiculously high expense, and the fact that the player then needs to go through an extra step with extra expense to make them wearable is absurd. Either make them exotics, or give them the same skin properties as HoM items that can simply be dropped onto another item of like properties. At least that skips the step of the player needing to buy transmute stones in addition to the already exhorbitant cost..

I mean w/ 3 80’s i can farm about 5g a day or so in just ori runs by themselves so it isn’t too far fetched to have a full set if you add in regular farming methods as well

Completely agree. Was about to post it myself.

I personally was a bit surprised to see that my faction armor would be only Rare, but I was fine with that because of the price. But the cultural armor costing many times that and being only Rare I didn’t find so justified.

Personally, I’d rather have a second tab at the cultural vendors for buying with skill points, because I can’t find any way to say “bring the gold cost down”. But I suppose I feel that should be done regardless of the tier.

There should be at least a way to upgrade them other than transmutation.
