Guild Wars 2

So yeah, started playing GW2 yesterday after my friend referred it to me so I got really interested. Bought the Heroic Edition and it is supposedly bundled with the Heroic Chest thing and stuff. Well, the problem is here. After opening the Heroic Chest you get an option to choose from three kinds of chests. Apparently I chose the Kytran one by mistake, as I was a Warrior and that chest is only for medium-armor types (ranger, thief).

After proceeding to wail for about 5 minutes (on how I wasted buying this edition by picking the wrong chest), I want to know if there is any way to transfer or use this Kytran set somehow? It feels like such a waste to just let it stay there in my inventory while also reminding me that I’m an idiot myself. sigh

You could always contact support and ask for the right chest. Or you could roll a ranger or a thief.

Will try the former. What is this “rolling” for a class? You can change your class in-game? :O

Rolling for a class = Make a second character

Old school pen and paper RPG term for creating a character due to the fact you roll dice to determine a character’s attributes.

Don’t forget Engineer is medium as well

Oh I see so that’s what “roll” means.

Yep, just equipped the set on another character which is an Engineer XD.

I just realized that the set is “Account-Bound” so I managed to transfer it to another one. I thought it is “Soul-Bound” so I got quite in a panic. Anyways thank you to all who replied and for setting me up in the right direction. Much appreciated. ;P

don’t worry, even if it was not account bound, it’s as easy as right clicking on the skin part and pressing on “unlock skin” or “store in vault”, press H and go to “hero wardrobe”.

Granted, you require a “transmutation charge” but that skin now becomes available to all of your medium armor characters and can be applied to your armor anywhere any time as long as you’re not in combat.

Besides, transmutation charges are very easy to acquire, just play PvP or complete all the areas in 1 capital city.
