I used a Transmutation Splitter on my back item hoping to get back the Holographic Shattered Dragon Wings skin and use it to turn them into a SPvP item, but instead it gave me a yellow back item with no stat that can only be transmuted with Transmutation Crystals.
Is that how Transmutation Splitters are supposed to work on actual skins?

From the patchnote:

Items using a skin will return a base item with the original appearance. Another Transmutation Stone will be required to reapply the skin.

It says it returns a base item, but no mention about what the skin becomes. So I would guess it is lost, but the phrasing isn’t clear enough to be certain.

I have a similar question, and I think Arena Net should really clear this up and reimburse people who have spent gems on these

I have encountered this issue with using the Transmutation splitter with the Holographic Dragon Wings. Now that I know others also have encountered the same issue, may I ask if ANET has provided any sort of solution?
