Guild Wars 2

when you buy an ascended weapon with hot stats from the vendor you can only choose core tyria stats

In that case I would request a refund
no really, you should look in the right tab. the 4th tab is core stats, the 5th tab is HoT stats

Since HoT stats were supposed to require owning the expansion, it’s also possible that if you don’t own it, the HoT stats tab doesn’t show up?

Wouldn’t a ‘Chest of Central Tyria weapon’ have Core Tyria stats? What stats do the ‘Chests of Heart of Thorns weapon’ have?

There should be chests “of central tyria and maguuma” there. It looks like it was being checked on non-HoT account.
