Reusable skins
I though it was a vanity item that you simply equip like the hats and glasses or am I missing something because I’m not sure what you mean by reuse? Also what about transmutation stones or doesn’t that work with vanity items?
Any cosmetic skin that is bought from the gem store should be account bound and copy-able. So we can mail copies of skins we paid for to our alts.
As I see it, this is more or less the problem with the entirety of the “Town Clothes” mechanic, or any of the cosmetic skins, transmutations, etc. Any skins bought from the Gem store should go into a “collection” or a tab in the Hero panel, perhaps accessible from the same menu as the dyes. If we paid Gems for a cosmetic enhancement, we should have access to it at any time, and the option to apply it when we like. The way things work now, I actually feel discouraged from purchasing anything like this. I don’t want it cluttering up my bags/bank, nor do I necessarily want it tied to a particular character or item.
I completely agree. It makes me not want to buy them due to only one use. A waste of gems if you ask me because I really like styling my character and having different looks when I like. But not for just one time and that many gems.
I just wish we can use the skins that we bought in the gem store to other characters as well (given that they have the same type of armor) since they are account bound once you buy them. I mean for Hall of Monument rewards, we can get the skins and apply them as many times as we want, so why not for gem store skins as well?
I also agree with one of the comments at top, I wish we can put these skins away somewhere, rather than it sitting in our inventory or bank taking up space that way we can use these skins with one of our other characters.
If you have a lot of transmute stones, you can transfer the skins. If the skin is still a skin, any of your characters can take it out of the bank to use.
We need an NPC like in GW1 that will let you remake the skins and also costumes and hats that we get… They taking way too much space and I hate loosing my skins on accident… Sucks badly
