Guild Wars 2

Some time ago, someone posted a screen of a stat change scroll that he datamined from somewhere.

Maybe it was a fake or maybe not, but having scrolls to change equipment stats would really make this game better for many reasons:

1) grindy equipment like ascended, becomes “patch proof”.
2) improves build diversity since you can try stats at will without risking to end with useless equip worthing thousands gold.
3) makes fractal and random boxes drops useful for once…

Would be good to include those via crafting and not via TP since we need to be able to change stat reliably often to try new stats.
Something like 1 exotic insigna of the desired stat+ some dark matter+ the item you want to change.

TY.

I’d prefer if all gear would just allow stat change out of combat, but that would devalue legendaries so I don’t think they’d do that. However, having a scroll like this for exotics would be nice. Due to the way I play I doubt I’d use it myself, unless they are acc bound and rewarded in some way. Regardless, others would probably find this usefull. One thing I wish they’d have done is allow ascended to swap stats aswell, it takes alot to get that gear but you get stuck with the stat combo you picked for a looong time. Then again, they would probably feel like legendaries wouldn’t be special anymore as they would only have the exclusive skin that makes them different.
