I’m trying to convert this to a Tempered Spinal Blade. The thing is that its soul bound to a character that only has 500 crafting in huntsman, not tailor, leatherwork, or armorsmith that apparently you need to be to do this.

If I try to use the mystic forge with a character that is level 500 in tailor, leatherwork, or armorsmith, it won’t let me because its soul bound to the character that is not.

Since my advanced spinal blade is soul bound to my huntsman only character, what if anything can be done????….. and no it has not been transmuted.

I would really appreciate any help here as to what might be done short of starting all over.

I have searched here and elsewhere about this and have found no clear answer. I did find some information that said if you upgrade it, it will become account bound, but try as I might, it won’t let me upgrade.

It shouldn’t be, it should be account bound.

Advanced Spinal Blades are soulbound on use

Theres a guide on Dulfy http://dulfy.net/2014/02/18/gw2-spinal-blade-backpiece/ that explains the process of upgrading far better than I could.

I would guess you are missing the Gift of Blades, the recipe can be bought from the Mystic Forge attendant just make sure you buy the right recipe for the crafting discipline you want to use, atm I think Armorsmith is the cheapest way to go.

You can leave a soulbound item in the bank and the crafting station should still recognize it for crafting purposes. (For mystic forge, the crafting rank is irrelevant — just give the items to the toon for which it’s bound.)

According to the wiki, Advanced Spinal Blades is account bound on acquire, but like most exotics, it becomes soulbound on use (which is unfortunate).

The Gift of Blades (like the Blade Shards and Vision Crystal) are all accountbound ingredients.

You can craft them on Tailor, Armorsmith or Leatherworker, whichever version of the recipe you have purchased, and put these items in your personal bank.

The character with the Soulbound Advanced Blades can then pick these up and throw all of them in the Mystic Forge resulting in the Ascended Tempered Blades being spat out as Accountbound.

Thanks too all who replied here.

I finally got it work. Not sure what I was doing wrong other than maybe trying to do things out of order.

I was almost in panic mode. I thought I was going to have to level the soulbound character up 500 in the proper crafting discipline.

All is well now……thanks again….:)
