I have a number of magic find items and sets that were of the loot type
“traveler vs explorer for instance”
But rather than getting to select any other type of stat set… they only get SOME of the offensive sets and condition sets… no knights, no rabid, no valkyrie.

I took a gamble nabbing an extra set for my ele in the hopes that it could be celestial but that I was happy to gamble with, I knew it would be likely that they would end up soul bound upon use… HAPPY with… knew they couldn’t be sold… also FINE with.

But they do NOT translate to other craftable stat sets unless they have explorer in the name which is a PAIN.
I don’t need any other zerker sets thank you, and the only character I would want condition on already has it (necro)

I’ve experienced this problem as well. Though it’s reverse for me, I can chose knights and valkyrie, however I can’t chose dire

Dire isn’t craftable. You couldn’t craft Traveler either.

Pretty sure that only the base craft-able stat sets are available to select and those are different based on whether the item is armor, weapon or jewelry.

However that isn’t what they promised.

When I say traveler I mean traveler weapons and named armour, those were MF gear… where that MF gear dropped initially should be irrelevant. Explorer gear and weapons give access to most stats while the Traveler type gear is limited to some crafted stats (zerker, cleric, rampager) but has none of the other options.

The whole stat swap was meant to be there to compensate people for the armor having it’s stat’s removed.
Any of the armour that was soulbound STAYED soulbound so it isn’t even the argument that it COULD be useful for alts if they for some reason didn’t have a zerker set or one of the others that you actually wanted.

So yeah, anyone who bought explorer or crafted explorer is laughing… those who got traveler or named gear… kittentastify them.

Karma trinkets always have limited selections.

Where it came from shouldn’t matter, it was magicfind gear and arenanet said that we would be able to swap stats to a crafted set, as I said… didn’t expect celestial, kinda weird that givers and settlers aren’t options but I don’t care too much.
