"Naked Legendaries" - Where are they?
Why can’t you do that with current legendaries? Just craft them and transmute to a skin you like better……

I think the point was that the current cost of a legendary is, in part, derived from its unique, and elaborate, skin…so a naked legendary, lacking said skin, would/should cost less than a full legendary.

I understand the concept; I don’t see where ANet suggested that they are actually working on it. Accordingly, there’s nothing to update.

It was transcribed from a livestream from the best I can tell. You have to view the OP which was from Dulfy:
They are working on a way for people to unlock a recipe to craft a naked legendary that allow you to select stats.
I have not watched the actual video to verify but since Dulfy posted it I’m guessing a dev said it in the video.

No, according to Linsey Murdock herself, the point of these was to allow players to craft more than 1 of the new HoT legendaries, by crafting 1, then crafting a “naked” legendary and transmuting the skin. This would allow someone to get that twice told legend achievement via HoT legendaries, which is currently impossible.
That was the entire point of this, never to offer cheaper legendaries.

Here’s the comment from Linsey

I am guessing that a Dev said something different from what the OP thinks, given that a developer actually said
It [the naked legendary] was not to give easy access to stat-swap gear. It was for people who already crafted the HoT legendary weapon from a journey and could therefore not craft a second one because of the nature of the precursor acquisition for HoT legendary weapons.
On something kinda related, how about legendaries or armor that actually makes you naked? Or since that’d constitute a rating change which could be a pain, have a new underwear variant for chest and legs? I know that’s been requested for a while

Well we have invisible shoes, even though they are more expensive than legendaries due to their low drop rate. I wouldn’t be opposed to having more invisible equips being added to the drop tables for the treasure mushrooms
