Guild Wars 2

I got this (the link has a code you can paste in the game chat so you can preview it) as a reward from the lvl 39 personal story mission ‘Mightier than the Sword’ (though, I think it comes from any of the last missions of the lvl30-40 arc involving the orders). It’s quite a bit better than what I was using so, I want to equip it but, I don’t like how it looks so, I would like to transmute it. That said, I don’t want to transmute it if I won’t ever be able to get that skin again in case I decide it looks good with some other bit of armour. Does anyone know if it is possible to get another piece of armour that has the same skin another way?

It is not.

This is really something that ought to be changed.

That is a shame. It seems silly to me to make armour skins unique unless they are a specifically hard to get item (like a legendary item or a reward from a really significant quest), especially without it being obvious at the time. There are already a lot of identical looking pieces of armour dropping and from vendors so, it might be nice if they added this skin to drops and vendors too so that there is a bit more variety. Anyway, hopefully they’ll do that at some point in the future.

If i remember correctly stalwart is the same skin as the wvw lv80 set. You can check it out.
