Guild Wars 2

I searched quite a bit and couldn’t find the exact answer i am looking for so maybe some of you guys could enlighten me.

Here’s my situation:

I bought the Phalanx Armor from the gem-shop.
Is it true that if i won’t use the skin on any armor it’ll be unlocked for my account wardrobe but the item is getting lost in that case and i have to pay transmutation charges after the patch if i want to use it?

With other words…. in order to use the skin for free i will have to get the stats i want to use and transmute it before the patch is live?

Im a bit confused right here :/ sry for my english.

As I read it, and I could be very wrong, the skins will still act as free applications after the patch, and using them at that point will add them to your wardrobe. So you should wait to use them if you can, in order not to spend transmute charges. They are changing traits and such too, so you might actually want different stats.

However, if you’re sure of the stats you want now, then you may as well do the skins now, as they’ll still be in your wardrobe later once you log in on the character wearing them. You won’t lose the item off your character, it will merely get duplicated into the wardrobe.

Again, that’s how I read it. I have my own points of confusion on what’s coming.

Thanks Donari,

I know that i won’t lose anything by using the skin now.
But i need dungeon tokens for the stats i want and it would be good to know if i should farm them now or if it’s safe to wait and don’t have to use transmutation charges by doing so.
