Guild Wars 2

I have a few armors (yes, actual armors, not town clothes) I keep in some of my chars’ bags that I do not ever equip when fighting, they are purely for appearance and I just wear them around town or whenever I feel like it. But since I don’t use them to fight, there’s zero reason for me to waste transmute crystals or stones on them.

Would I still be able to equip these without spending money? Someone suggested that armor in general is now becoming non-items, just unlocks you loot for your inventory tab, so this is something I was wondering about.

You can equip and un-equip any gear you choose when you choose (as long as you meet its requirements; weight, level, etc.). It is only altering the appearance of an item with one that is unlocked in your wardrobe that costs charges.

Also this reminds me on my main I have several head pieces on my main I switch between whenever I feel like. All are actual armor I used. I bought several items with the same stats and skinned it a total of 3 times. It seems like now I’d have to basically pick one, and not swap between as I feel like it, short of using charges?

If they’re just armour in your bag you can wear them any time you like. The day this game charges you to change actual “physical” armour, armour with stats and not just a skin, is the day 100% of the player base walks away.

@StinVec, okay, thanks!
