I had a look for this, but didn’t see it….
I bought a couple of tier 3 racial armors for glory and gold in PvP, kinda hoping it would give me the achievement for having it. that didn’t happen, but I knew there was a change coming.. so waiting till then. I just spent my 6 transmutation points and change my thief’s armor to tier 3 human.. and still nothing…
not I’m a bit disappointed.. while the armor was cheaper in PvP it was still 60 gold AND a lot of glory.. I though the glory would make up for it.. so took the dive and got two sets… Anyone know it I’m meant to be getting jibbed like this, or maybe it’s a bug?…….

Unfortunately you made the same mistake as everyone else, expecting to be actually rewarded for doing something in PvP rather than PvE.

You bought skins…not actual armor so nope no achievement unless you buy the actual armor.

Still.. I’d think that 60 gold and a heap of glory should get you more then just the skins… meh…. Guess I’m gona have to agree with Chase….

No, read the achievement.

It says the achievement hits for soul binding the armor, which you can’t do with just the skin.

I bought the T3 skin too, feel kinda ripped off. 60G + Transmutation charge costs isn’t that much cheaper than 105G, and I could have put the glory to better use.
