Guild Wars 2

I took a break from the game for awhile and have recently started playing again. I noticed quite a few awesome looking outfits and other cosmetic items that apparently were only obtainable through the gem store at one point, but are no longer available.

I was wondering, do those older gem store items ever get put back into the shop? or is it just a “you missed your chance sorry bro” type of deal?

A number of outfit are seasonal, so several will come back throughout the year. However, there has been a big shift by Anet to have most future armor skins to be released as Outfits (either by reward or gem store) instead. Thats why we many have been released over the last several months.

Because Gem store outfits are big money makers, expect to see them back in the store for limited runs in the future. But the more popular an outfit is, the more likely it’ll have a shorter run (marketing hype train).

The items in the Cash Shop come back every once in a while, but again for a limited time. Think of it like seasonal products, I guess.

Well that really sucks, I was hoping to get the hexed outfit.

That’s a Halloween outfit. Look for its reappearance around October.

Hex’d I believe was an achievement unlock reward. If its in the 2015 achievements you wouldn’t even need to buy it. And unlike 2013, the clock tower is no longer mandatory. (I’ve beaten it once….. once.)

The Hexed Outfit was sold by a merchant in Lions Arch for 3 Corn Cobs during Halloween. It’s unknown if it will return next Halloween.

And this is why I won’t be buying anything from the gem store any time soon. I intensely dislike outfits, because there’s no customization that you get with mixing and matching different pieces of armor.

Wanna look like a monk? Sure, you’ll look exactly the same as every one else that wants to look like a monk.

Wanna wear that snazzy noble suit with a tophat or monocle? Too bad, it’s an outfit!
