Guild Wars 2

Lately, been looking into a more specific character look, and I looked into Aetherized weapon skins; specifically the rifle. However, sadly, the rifle is no longer on the trading post. I’m not exactly clued in on how the weapon skin system works, but does anybody know if there is a system of rotation? Or maybe even set dates for rotation?

Thanks!

I doubt that they’ll ever make it back, personally.

The scarcity and the way rotation works drives the market for such skins, and ultimately A-net benefits from this because it means people buy gems to buy BLC keys for a chance of a claim ticket.

EDIT: As far as I know, the only weapons that have made a comeback are Halloween skins, but these cost two tickets each and were holiday related. There have also been lotteries held for exclusive halloween skins, but I’m not sure if these were BL weapons or not.

What about the point at which said skins are no longer on the market? Surely they’d benifit more from bringing them back for people to buy a load of keys for ticket scraps/tickets.

Lovestruck weapons came back, too. And I believe the weapons from dragon bash, the jade set, were brought back at a slightly higher ticket price. The first wintersday weapons also returned. But I’m thinking that past non-holiday sets won’t ever come back for less than 3 tickets.
