Guild Wars 2

Hello!

I am just catching up with the new updates, and was wondering if we would now have to pay in transmutation crystals to use the heritage armor/weapon skins we unlocked from playing GW1? Or will the hall of monuments continue to work the same?

Thanks!

My guess would be no. But I guess we will see

I’m guessing each item in the wardrobe has an associated “transmute charge cost”. It would make sense that the Heritage skins and the Achievement obtain skins would cost 0 charges. Pure speculation, however.

I assume it will work both ways. When you use the heritage skin, it will appear in your wardrobe where you can use it again for xmute charges, but you will still be able to go back to HoM to get another copy to use for free. Of course everyone will use the free option, but the devs aren’t going to bother making the wardrobe work differently just for this.

I’m guessing it’ll function like Tasty Pudding says. Hard to say. I would argue the same may happen for Zenith weapons.

It all depends on whether ArenaNet both would be capable of assigning different transmutation costs to each skin, and be willing to create the player convenience of doing such.

With the way the other ‘improvements are going’ I wouldn’t be surprised if AP skins and Heritage skins actually cost more to transmute then regular skins in the new system.

in the video they showed with the wardrobe, one of the ‘free’ skins (heritage, i think) was hovered over for a moment and it had a “free to apply” quality – in other words, it doesn’t cost charges to use.
