Guild Wars 2

I’m curious when I see Level 2 guy wearing looks-to-be 80 level Gear.

Don’t tell me they are using transmutation stone for every piece of their armor, or can you craft an armor that looks like top gear that is usable by low levels?

Thanks.

T stones. I had 80 whispers gear at level 40 this way, buying the rare level 80 set and using fine t stones to bring it down to my level

You kidding me!
To me getting T stone is hard enough, but even using fine T stone!?

Well, thanks for answering…
So, I guess the Level 2 Ranger I saw which had good looking Armor, he will continue to use T stone to keep up with his Level…

I’ve been doing a fair bit of map completion on alts. The cities each give 3 transmutation stones for completion, and can be done right out of the tutorial. So that’s 18 basic stones for just running around a bit. Regular map completion often gives stones as rewards too, though that’s not guaranteed.

For fine stones, I’ve picked up several from Black Lion chests, using keys mostly from personal stories (again, several alts) a few from map completion, and one or two from the gem store.

For a while I was thinking that the basic stones were hard to get, but with several alts, including one that gets re-rolled frequently and can complete cities again, I had a stack of basic stones pretty quickly. Plus extras.
