Guild Wars 2

Can you use transmuted Wings of Ascension for this (once you transmute them back to their original skin) or are they ruined for the Legendary backitem once they have been transmuted?

They should work just fine, you don’t even need to transmute them back to the original skin.

Thank you! I was worried.

the only difference is the info text about the skin changes from “skin unlocked” to “transmuted”

probably not a big deal for most people but it kinda bugs me about my Ad Infinitum.

I think you misunderstood my question. It was about the precursor, not the legendary.

As far as I know all transmuted items will still work in the Mystic Forge. The important thing is they function as the base item, not the one the skin and name are from.

This is a lot less confusing than it used to be before the wardrobe system, but basically it means if an item is transmuted you need to check the name under the ‘transmuted’ text to see what it actually is.

So for example if you took The Ascension and reskinned it to look like the Pet Plantling you can use it to make Ad Infinitum but not to make Mawdrey.
