Guild Wars 2

Good Morning all,

I have a question concerning skins. For instance during the Halloween event if you look on the trade post you can buy the Mad King outfit as well as a witch/warlock outfit.

I know they can not be used in combat but:

1. Are they transmutable? I would assume not since what would be the purpose of transmuting them but this leads to the overall question.

2. If they are transmutable which I assume they are not, could they then be used in combat. The reason I ask is because it doesn’t say its not transmutable. Also the skins are they set pieces or just a skin that sort of transforms you. Because if it’s the later then that would explain why It could not be transmuted.

3. If you have 2 different set pieces for example the Karma armor set and the racial set. Both are nice sets but clearly the racial set has lesser stats. Say I wanted to have both skins is there no way to do this. For example…I want the karma stats with the racial set. I know that the karma skin set will be destroyed. Then on a later date I decide I want to look different is there no way to get that karma set back outside of buying it again?

If that is the case I wish they would add a wardrobe or something that would save the skins you had so that you would not have to buy them again. Am I wrong in this assumption?

1) No.
2) See 1
3) Nope, there is no way to go back and forth between transmutable sets. Once you’ve transmuted the karma stats on the racial armor, your karma armor will be gone forever. You could however simply transmute different items onto both your karma and your racial set. For example, take any exotic item you like the stats of and transmute that onto your racial armor, then get another one of the same exotic item and transmute it onto your karma armor.

You’ll then have a karma item and a racial item with the same stats and you can wear whichever one you like at that moment.

Ah I see what you are saying. Thank you very much for the reply. So I’ll just get a karma set and keep those stats as well as a racial set and look on the TP for the stats that I want and transmute that as well.
