I don’t PvE much, but I LOVE sPvP… I’m a mid-high level pvp rank, but I’m a lower level “character” rank.

The majority of my guild are much higher level and sporting some REALLY great looking armor and weapons they’ve got doing pve dungeons, etc.. I have great looking pvp stuff, but when I come out “into the world” I look like any other low level.

I spent just as much time getting my armor as they did, but nobody sees it… not even in WvW.

I’ve tried transmuting… but it won;t work. Does anyone know a way I can wear my pvp goodies into the world? I don’t want the attributes, just the skins/cosmetic with my pve stats.

It sucks when we WvW together, they’re all looking fine, and I have studded leather.

And if it’s not possible… (I SO HOPE IT IS!) why not? No matter where we are in the game, let us show cosmetically at least, what we’ve earned.

I hope someone can tell me how to do this…

no, spvp has his own things, its like a different world

wvwvw and pve yes, you share the gear and lvl, traits, build, etc

PvE&WvW have been keep separate from sPvP for a variety of reasons.

Primarily however this is to do with that way that sPvP works.
Since levels are purely ‘cosmetic’, and you get virtually nothing else in sPvP (save for dyes and bags), the ‘look’ of a character in sPvP is its only reward.

If you were to start being able to wear you sPvP gear in PvE/WvW, then there would be plenty of people arguing for the same in reverse, being able to wear their PvE gear into sPvP. And that would remove the whole purpose of levels and gear in sPvP, since you could look fantabulous in sPvP without having actually done any sPvP.

If you agree that you should have to do sPvP to look good in it, then you should also be able to see the reverse: You should have to do PvE to look awesome in it.

You have nothing to fear but Fear itself
