Guild Wars 2

If i were to transmute a legendary – say, Quip into Chaos Gun – would it retain the ability to switch stats on the fly?

(“why would you even want to transmute quip?!” because i like having a switchable insignia on a pistol, not necessarily the skin/effects.)

The stat switching is based on the legendary itself (purple name) and not the skin, you can make 50 bronze greatswords look like Eternity, but only the original Eternity (which probably now looks like a bronze greatsword) can change its stats.

Eternity will look like Eternity no matter how many bronze greatswords you make look like Eternity.

But yes, stat swapping is tied to the weapon itself and not to the skin.

ah, good to know. thank you.

My evil plan is one step closer to fruition >:D
