Guild Wars 2

For some reason transmutation stones have stopped working all together for me. I’ve tried using my Aetherblade armor, Zenith and Super Greatsword skin with transmutation stones and crystals with no luck. Is anyone else having this issue?

Are you saying it won’t let you highlight the look, or the stats, or anything? Not sure what the picture is showing…

Also, have you tried switching sides? Putting the desired skin on the left, and stat item on the right?

I don’t want to make an assumption that this is user error, or that it is, indeed, a bug. I do not know your history with using transmutation, so just to be clear on this, you:

• Have both items in your bags. Or are you leaving one equipped?
• You drag the one item to the left and the other to the right. (though which side each item is on does not matter at all)
• Click the image of the appearance you desire and it slides over to the center and the undesired appearance disappears.
• Click the stats of the item you desire and it slides over to the center and the undesired stats disappear.
• If there is a rune/sigil you wish to include, click the rune/sigil of the item you desire and it slides over to the center and if there was an undesired rune/sigil, then that, too, disappears.
• Item Transmutation button then lights up.
• You then click on the Item Transmutation button.
  Does nothing happen?
  Do you hear a noise when you clicked the Item Transmutation button?
  Or did the Item Transmutation button not light up after following these steps?

One thing to note is that, if you try to include the rune/sigil of the higher level item in the transmute window, then the end product must meet the level requirements for the rune. So if you select the stats of a level 20 armor item, and you’re trying to grab the appearance of a level 80 armor item that also has a superior rune on it, then you cannot include the Superior rune in the end product as Superior runes require a level 60 armor item and you’ve selected the stats of a level 20 armor item which cannot have a Superior rune on it.

There does happen to be an Anomaly with Transmutation, at times:

Although it should not matter which side you place each item:

Some items need to be placed first or on the left side of the transmutation panel.
The color of the name of the resulting item may vary depending on which item went into the left slot.

I waited a little bit and restarted my game and now everything is working fine, seems kinda odd! Thanks for the tips and replies!

I’m glad it is no longer a problem for you.
Fair well.

Thank you for pointing out that anomaly. I’ve never experienced any issues with transmutation so I was not aware of that as being something that happens.

Not a problem, StinVec. The wiki has a plethora of little known facts. ; )
