Guild Wars 2

I’m assuming they are bugged as they do not seem to work on Mine or my dauighter’s account.

Hope this gets fixxed soon, our appearence choices are very limited, and not very exciting, so when I do actually find a look I like, I would like to keep it.

Details of what you’re trying and how it fails, and which stones you’re using?

After a recent patch they dont work anymore on equipped items.
If thats the case, unequip item first.
Otherwise, be more detailed about the problem.

We’ve tried basic and fine stones, dropped and purchaced stones, tried it on weapons and armor pieces. The exact same thing occurs on both of our accounts, and both of our machines.

Using them exactly the same way that I’ve always successfully used them all along:

Open the transmutation window; drag and drop two “similar” items (ie 2 light armor chest pieces); select the characteristics from all 3 categories that I wish to keep; (good transmutation) becomes highlighted; press the button; both items revert back to their original inventory slot; transmutation doesn’t happen.

Don’t lose the stone, don’t lose either item, the only thing I lose is my desired appearence

Make sure the equipment that you are trying to transmute is in your bags, not equipped. This method of transmutation was implemented in a recent patch.

Another point worth mentioning, in case you weren’t aware, is that basic stones only work on equipment levels 1-79. Level 80 gear requires Fine stones which you can find in the Gem Store.

Edit: Oops, I was too slow! Good luck Skirge!

Thanks for the suggestion …will try that when I get home from work and see if that works, will follow up here one way or another.

Yeah that was going to be my suggestion—make sure the items you are trying to transmute are not equipped. Unequip them, then try the appropriate transmutation stone and see if that works.
