Guild Wars 2

Was wondering something about Transmutation stones, and also the Heritage armor.

Can you use a Transmutation stone to gain the visuals of a piece of armor that has a different armor class? For example, Heavy Armor having the look of a piece of Light Armor.

If this is possible, can the same be done for the Heritage armor? What I mean is that you put the Heritage Armor on a piece of armor, then Transmute it with your current armor to gain the look of the Heritage Armor. I know that you cannot directly do this, because it says so in the Heritage Armor item description (Can only be used on X Armor class).

I’m curious because I like the design of the Medium Class Heritage Armor a lot, however I don’t play any characters that use Medium Armor. Not only that, some of the armor designs I like I cannot use on classes that I play because they don’t use the same armor types as the designs I like.

Any info about this would be great.

No. All items must be of the same armor class, you you can’t transmute the stats of a heavy chestpiece with the appearance of a light chestpiece.

Bah, that sticks. Thanks.
