Q:
"Store in vault" skins, upcoming feature?
“Store in vault” is the option to unlock the skin of that item into your wardrobe. If it’s greyed out, you already have it unlocked.
They should rename it. Causes confusion, why other armor things says “Unlock skin”, and skins says “Store in vault” ?
Store =/= unlock.
Ty for info, please Anet change the description (or you minde, pleaaaaaase )
I can “store” a skin with a free transmutation to unlock it. The windcatcher for example, if not yet skinned, will have that option available. You lose the free transmutation though by using it.
‘Unlock Skin’ will unlock that ONE specific skin.
‘Store in Vault’ will destroy ONE skin but unlock the whole set of that specific skin.
For example: my Flamekiss armor was in my bank and I clicked ‘Store in vault’ and it destroyed the boots but it gave me the whole set along with it. I think it only works for gem store purchases.

I was looking for free space on my character. 10 skins or so at there unused, store those to after use (without a transmutaion fee once) would be nice =)
“Unlock Skin” is the option that saves the skin of an actual piece of equipment.
“Store in Vault” is the option that saves the skin of an item that you doubleclick to apply its skin to an actual piece of equipment.
IE, if you buy an armor set from the gem store, “Store in Vault” would be the option for the items you recieve, whereas “Unlock Skin” would be the option for any items that you applied that skin to already.
One difference is “Store in Vault” destroys the item in question, but it’s a moot point; either you destroy it and it goes to the vault, or you apply it to a piece of equipment which expends the item and still stores the skin to the vault.
