Guild Wars 2

I’ve been unlocking all the in game skins since the wardrobe system came out and I just noticed an annoying (and extremely expensive) glitch.

Fashion Achievements (such as the “Norn Speciality Armors” achievement) require that a certain number of different cultural armor pieces be souldbound to accomplish. As cultural pieces are soulbound on acquire, you’d assume this would mean that once you bought enough norn cultural pieces the achievement would be completed.

Apparently not.

When I bought all 18 of the tier 1 cultural armors for my norn (the light, medium and heavy sets), the skins of all of the items were unlocked in the wardrobe but the achievement only registers that I’ve acquired 6 of the 18 skins I bought.

I checked the other fashion achievements and a similar thing seems to have happened with my human and Charr fashion achievements. Judging from the lesser purchases I made for my human, it appears that only the cultural pieces that your character can equip get added to the fashion counter.

Unless anyone can point out something I’m doing wrong here?

No so the way it works is you need to purchase 6 pieces from each tier. So 6 t1, 6 t 2, & 6 t3.
