Guild Wars 2

Can’t salvage or morph/transmute in mystic fountain my soulbound items. Is there are cooldown on new character (1 montch char) ?

Sry for my bad english.

Some things just can’t be tossed into the Mystic Forge. Some things, if you can’t salvage or sell, all you can do is delete if they are no longer of value.

If these are soulbound items you received as level up rewards, there is nothing you can do with them but delete them. This is so people don’t use the various quick cheap ways to level up just to “farm” the rewards to turn into TP-tradeable items such as mats.

What specifically are you putting in the forge? The forge isn’t really used for transmuting except for ascended weapons and armour.

All item like armor , weapons, accessory are lvl 80 (exotic) from BLTC. I have many older char and can salvage, only on this new char can’t salvage, only destroy or throw away.

You aren’t storing them in an invisible bag by any chance are you?

Could you take and post a screenshot of the items in your inventory you’re trying to salvage?

Ok i think my set is from HOT starter pack. My all items are with “soldier’s” prefix – exotic.
TY all for help.

Mystery solved, thread may be closed.

That was kinda weird to me to begin with.
Some stuff you get as story rewards are soulbound on acquire, others are account bound.
You can’t do anything with soulbound on acquire, but you can seem to mystic toilet account bound story rewards — they just can’t be salvaged.

I collected 3 exotics for a long time after realising they could be toiletted. Finally got a 4th one the other day, and got an item worth about a gold from the forge.

That stuff is weirdly inconsistent. Also, why can you combine 4 of anything up to rares in the Forge, but you can’t mix armor and weapons once you hit exotic?

For the same reason why we can’t forge for exotic runes/sigils: for no reason that we quite understand.

I’m pretty sure you could put a Mystic Forge Stone in the 4th slot rather than wait for a 4th drop.

Thought they were valuable. Plus kinda forgot i had them until i found another exotic i couldn’t do anything with. They were sat there in the hidden bag of “why am i carting this halloween trash around with me”.

Well, if you only have three or four you might not want to use them up just to clear out exotic trash. But as I am well into my second stack of them and almost never use them, it seems a fine use to me.
