What is wrong with these skins????????
None of the armor or costumes skins are infinite use. All are one time use since launch. The zenith skins system isn’t even a month old.
They clearly did that with the Zenith and Radiant skins.
Uh… Did you honestly believe the reason why the Gem Store purchases are soubound and can only be used once is because ArenaNet didn’t have the technical ability to do otherwise?
Of course ArenaNet could do that. Of course they could, if they wanted, make a system similar to the costume system in the original Guild Wars – you pay once, and then you have as many copies of the skin you want, available to all characters in your account.
They don’t do that because they don’t want to. They are assuming that the way the current skins work would give them a higher profit, by requiring people to buy the same skins multiple times for different characters, or to buy transmutation crystals in order to change which armor players have attached the skins too.
This is one more victim to the monetization of GW2, just like the account-bound dyes and the RNG weapon skins.

Well, now that they added the zenith and radiant they should at least provide the skin available for the same character in PvP and PvE. I know they need the gem store money support but the same character it is just silly.
You can have as many copies of Zenith and Radiant skins as you want…
That’s completely and utterly stupid. That’s another way Anet has cut corners with this game in an attempt to make more money. They need to change it so all thing bought in the gem store can be received on all characters.

I’d rather cash shop than sub fee…
WoW now has both equipment skins/cash shop and a sub fee. Dat greed.

It’s not what you want, it’s what they think will make them more money. And they think, probably based on researching cash shops of other games, that this system will make more money for them. Any time you propose a change that effects their cash flow you need to keep this in mind and suggest something that will bring in money for them to replace lost sales if they do change it.
