I know that as new skins are added , the old ones disappear.
You said that you will find a way to bring every weapon skin back , will it be at HoT ?

Vague topic is vague. Are you refering to past black lion ticket skins? Halloween event skins? Wintersday? Are you asking for anet to reduce price on black lion tickets more often?

All of the above?

As it stands your topic is very broad and unclear.

Did they ever say that they were going to find a way to bring back every weapon skin?

Personally, I’d be thrilled if they did so I wouldn’t need to get 60k more gold to buy halloween 2012, fused, aetherized, dreamthisle, sclerite skins.

Where did they say that they will “find a way to bring every skin back”? You’ll need a source for that.

Be careful what you ask for
ANet may give it to you.

Without the quote it’s hard to say what they meant but I would expect it to mean they will be returned to the Black Lion Weapon Specialist at a later date.

As it stands your topic is very broad and unclear.

How is it vague?

He clearly says he wants them to bring back the old skins, says they have already said they will and is asking when that will happen.

Whether they have actually said that, I don’t know, but it’s hardly vague.

Did they ever say that they were going to find a way to bring back every weapon skin?

Yeah, the current price of some of the older skins is absolutely ridiculous.

I hope no one is actually paying that amount for them…

I would like to see all the sets which never came back after the release of the black lion set achievements come back eventually. Otherwise it would be unfair to add achievements for weapons which never were available for 1 ticket since the achievement was added.
I am working on my 17th set at the moment

The original title didn’t say anything about black lion skins. It just asked about bringing back skins (unspecified).

if you look at the bids, the supply and the demand strongly disagree on the value of those rare skins. 3k g for that ugly aether staff is ridiculous. And the only guy who has it spent 150g just to list the skin!

Here is what Curtis said: (from the thread titled ‘Weapons Skins Going Away’)

There’s your official announce.

They’re not permanently gone (probably) , but they will be off the vendor for quite a while. Long enough i wouldn’t even hazard a guess at a bring-back date.

Like any store, we’ll be regularly rotating out sets that are out of season or not popular to keep the vendor from overloading too many tabs.

Probably …. regularly rotating

Over the life of the game, it looks like anything can leave and probably (but not certain) make its way back in.

Good luck.

I personally don’t think they should be brought back. Items like that are a way for players to either show off wealth, or that they have played for a long time. Considering it’s an mmo those types of items are very typical.

I….gotta disagree. There’s far too many prestige skins as is, and very few players have a reasonable chance of ever buying them. Don’t see the point of adding things to the game where you’re screwed if you don’t get them right away.

Unfortunately for most of us, some very high end skins (like the Ghastly Grinning Shield) are quite unlikely to ever come back.

They have a role in the game – an aim for a player who plays the game a lot. This is a thing that Guild Wars 2 does not provide a lot of, and if they make rare/expensive skins a thing which is much more readily available, it will harm the game.

If there is a collection achievement for them, they should come back at least once per year. 3k per skin in a set of 19 weapons is outrageous.
