Q:

Twilight issues aside, is it a bad idea to transmute a legendary? Is it intended for the legendary to be just a skin that you transmute over and over or will the legendary’s tier status affect something in the future?

When weapon ascension upgrade hits, will the transmuted Legendaries be upgraded to ascended stats, or do we have to acquire an Ascended Weapon and transmute it again?

You get Ascended Stats.
But i donĀ“t know what happens if you transmute it first to other Exotic Stats and then the Ascanded weapons get released….

I’d also like an answer to this, maybe some snapshot of a dev answering or maybe an actual answer as I’ve been unable to find any answers myself.

I would also like to know, Im planning to do 3 legendaries and i would not like to hear that i only have the skin without the stats, a good fix would be making legendaries account bound once after all….no more issues with it tbh >.>

If you do not transmute it, it will get Ascended stats automatically in the future, when Ascended weapons are released.
If you do transmute it, the Legendarys status will change to Transmuted instead of Legendary, but the colour will still be purple.
There is currently no answer to will Transmuted Legendarys get the Ascended boost.

If you are going for Eternity, don’t Transmute the Twilight, because the Transmuted version will not go to the Forge, because Transmuting creates a whole new item. This is why you shouldn’t Transmute Precursors either.

No one knows yet if transmuted legendaries will be upgraded when Ascended weapons are added. Anet haven’t said, it’s possible they don’t even know yet since I don’t think they’re working on Ascended weapons so they may not know how they’re going to work.

But I suspect if they can they’ll upgrade transmuted legendaries just because of the kitten storm they’ll get if they don’t.

Ouch, I hope this can be changed. I am currently working towards the only legendary I like and the stats are no good for me. If I can’t transmute without wrecking it I might have to rethink.

If the future Ascended weapons are easy enough to get I could always transmute again but based on the current Laurel vendor I’d say a month or two of dailies at least.

Such a shame.

Yeah, pretty much this. A mystic forge recipe to ascend the triforge pendant has set a precedent so we should all expect the same courtesy for legendaries that were transmuted, considering that legendaries take even more time and effort (or $$) than the triforge pendant.

My thoughts are that Ascended Transmutation Stones would be something different.

Folks with Legendary weapons go to a NPC to select stats and not automatically assign stats.

Atleast that’s what I am hoping/love to see
