Guild Wars 2

As the title says. I deleted them in the first days of GW2, beliving “oh there will be plenty of others in towns”. WRONG.

So I still have some parts of it (basic town clothes), and I guess that will unlock the whole skin set for me, according to last QnA (notes on dulfy: http://dulfy.net/2014/04/08/gw2-developer-qa-livestream-on-april-feature-pack/ ). Still I have no town cloth items to equip in these slots, so I can’t do anything with the skins. These items are soulbound by default so I cannot transfer one from a new character.

Only my main character is missing them.

Any ideas?

If it is the looks you are after create a new character then transmute the looks. Or you could wait until after the patch then just create a new character.

As said above.
1. I have no item to use in those slots. You can’t transmute an existing skin to an empty slot.
2. If I create a new character that will have it’s own town clothes soulbound to it. In case if I don’t get the full skin set from the remaining parts of the old one on my main character, creating a new character will only grant me the skins, not giving me an item I can transmute them to and equip on my main character.

If you make a new character after patch, you should unlock all of the town clothes in the wardrobe now.

Town clothes will either be tonics or outfits. Not skins. Therefore creating a new toon for patch day will yeild you the default outfit. Which should be accessible for your other toons.

The only things that are actually turning into skins are headgear.

With the introduction of the wardrobe, the concept of town clothes is being removed. There will no longer be a slot to equip them and the ones you start with will simply disappear, unless they convert them into cultural outfits. If they do happen to convert them, you’ll be able to unlock them by creating a new character of the same race, which you will then be able to equip through the wardrobe.
