Guild Wars 2

I’ve recently been transmuting items a lot on my low level characters and I’ve noticed something: sometimes, transmuting changes the item’s inventory icon to a generic one instead of a specific one. The 3D ingame look is ok, but the inventory icon is not.

For example, I transmuted a krytan short bow skin to another bow, and it gained a generic inventory icon – while when transmuting the krytan longbow skin onto a longbow did not have this effect and the item retained the krytan inventory icon.

Has anyone else observed this and is Anet aware of this behaviour? (either way there’s got to be a bug in here…)

P.S. Just noticed that the Inquest helm, Crucible of eternity medium helmet has the wrong icon too – the inventory icon is that of the Sorrow’s embrace armor.
