Guild Wars 2

A little late maby but…
I have read some posts about PvP players don’t like that they will have to Transmute their gear on patch day.

What if we could have the option to keep PvE cosmetic or keep PvP cosmetic for that character you log in with.

Why I am not suggesting that we would get 6 transmugation charges for free for every char is that not everyone will use them and save them and that is not the point for it.

I’m all for the choice, but for my own part it wouldn’t matter as my mesmer has both a PvP Phoenix skin and a PvE phoenix skin.. thus I’ll be losing one either way.

As far as I know, if you purchased gem store kins twice, you can ask support for a refund for one of them…
Just FYI.

I don’t mind iether to be honest but I was thinking about these poor players who got the raw deal.

That’s good but still… Even though you can get back the skin you used in PvP since it will be in your wardrobe those who played only PvP will have to use transmugation charges to get their looks back.

Again I am not affected by this and I also gonna add that I dunno actually what is going to happen with the PvP cosmetics you use when the patch goes live but I have seen the complaints so I had an idea for it.

You get 1 Trans. Stone per pvp rank so that part isn’t all that much of a problem.

It is a problem for me. Each of my characters have particular looks in spvp right now. I’m only rank 46. 46 charges is not going to cover the armor/weapon skins for my 12+characters just to get back to looks I already had for them.

“12+” so umm…you don’t know how many characters you have?

Wait, the looks in PvP are going to be set back to default? Where did it say that?

It does’t say that… That I know of.

That is exactly what I mean with what I said in the end of my second post here…
I dunno where it says that but they (a few players, mostly PvP players) are complaining about this. I have looked around abit but havent found anything about it, but logicly the PvP armor will transfer into the Wardrobe and loose the cosmetic as soon as you enter Heart of the Mist but we can hope that there will be a choice to convert your PvP cosmetic to your real armor for free. Or some other sulution I havent thought about.

Anyway, I havent seen any information about this but I could aswell have missed it.

I just don’t understand why it should behave that way. I mean, my PvE armour won’t just magically disappear and leave my pretties running around naked until I replaced it, so why should PvP armour? ô.O
Logically, PvP armour is just transmuted armour, it doesn’t make sense to have it behave differently…

I think the reason is…you will have one look for either PvP or PvE. If you want to use your PvP look all the time in both PvP and PvE, you will transmute your armor to display that. If you want your current PvE look in PvP, you won’t have to.

As the PvP armor look was nothing but skins without stats, that was the way they had to implement it. Yes, it is problematic for those that have many characters, and didn’t play much PvP, but Transmutation Charges are relatively easy to earn in PvE (City map completion), and (if I am not mistaken) able to be earned in PvP, as well. The bonus part is that you will unlock all those PvP skins for PvE use for free.

You can read more about it in the Knowledge Base https://help.guildwars2.com/entries/46419166-Wardrobe or watch the relevant Twitch livestreams.

You don’t get a charge per rank, you get an unknown amount for each PvP rank you have (it’s unknown, they didn’t specify in the live stream, but it’s definitely more than 1.)

I suppose we’ll just have to wait and see. I understand that its a problem for those of you with umpteen characters you use in PvP but personally I’m unable to find anything conclusive about the issue.. other than the transmutation/rank thingymajing.

Pretty sure they said 1 in this one http://www.twitch.tv/guildwars2/c/4031773
at roughly the 11min mark.
