Guild Wars 2

I’ve read threads about how to transfer the mad memories book over, except that none of it works.

I did what was said to do with the quaggan backpack as per this thread: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/crafting/White-backpiece

I got the white backpiece, transmuted the book onto it, but now that can’t be transmuted to anythign with stats on it. None of my backpieces can take on the appearance of the now account bound book. The transmute button is just unclickable. Did I do something backwards or does this just not work any more? Now I’m stuck with a mad memories that I can equip, but has no stats, and can’t be transmuted onto anything.

Ignore this, I figure it out. It must have had something to do with level. I could take the statless book and use a yellow transmutation stone to get the look onto a level 45 backpiece, then transmute that to my level 80 one. thanks.
