130904-001404 Followed up today
If you are saying they replied to my ticket today, you are mistaken.
Last response is still 09/11/2013 08:07 PM, just about 9 days ago. I refreshed, logged out, etc.
No, sorry if that was unclear. That means I followed up with the team on that day to try to move the ticket along. I looked again and the ticket is in active status and I saw an email about it. I believe you will have an answer within the next 24 hours, probably sooner. It has taken a while and we apologize. The ticket was reassigned and as I said, should be fully resolved very soon.
They got back to me just minutes ago and I responded, waiting for final implementation.

It has been several more days and still no word. What does followed up mean to you guys? On the 11th they asked for one detail so that they could “quickly wrap the issue up”. 12 days ago. Again, the last reply was even from a “Senior GM” claiming “I will personally will take care of this ticket and make sure is solved as soon as possible”. I responded with the one detail about an hour later and have had no response since then… 12 days ago.
Is there something wrong? Another detail they missed that they need? What is happening?
Already posted here several times, been about week since a senior GM posted saying they were taking over the case to ensure a timely closing. I answered them with what they said was the final detail they needed. What is going on? Last response was the 11th.
Okay… Been two days since the last response from support again… They made it sound like they would be done in a moment after I sent the information they requested, not days later. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate that they are solving this for me, but I don’t see how it takes this long. Ticket is 10 days old tomorrow.
Transmute the skin onto a white. It will be account bound. Put it in the bank. Pick it up on the character you want it on and use the splitter. You will get the stats back and it will be souldbound to the new character.
hopfully soon… i’m been working on my twlight for a while… i’m missing about 40% tier 6 materails and… dusk which gone up to 8-900g on tp…. lol
My wife needs only Dusk. I will also be needing one as I am working on Twilight for Eternity now. The pre is the biggest obsticle with almost no solid way to get it. Some people have trouble keeping up with the price inflation, let alone actually buying the thing.
I hope you have enough scratch to get to 450 crafting, because unless you refine those, or throw 90% of them away, you won’t have room for that much dust.
Actually not even doing 500 crafting. Focusing on 2 Twilights right (wife’s and mine for eternity) now so it isn’t even on my radar yet. Guess I will destroy them.
Yeah, the looking forward post made it look like a sure thing and then on that dev stream she brushed it off like it was just brought up casually during a meeting and wasn’t serious yet. Do not like the flip floping.
Very cool, only point I would have for Anet is that at night when the blade shifts to twilight, sunrise footsteps should be seen. Cannot wait to finish my Twilight (already have Sunrise).
The Transmutation Splitter is now available in the Consumable category for 300 gems each, 5 for 1350 gems, or 25 for 6000 gems. Transmutation Splitters will return the two current source items from any transmuted item and will also return an applied upgrade separately. All items returned from splitting a transmutation are soulbound. Items using a skin will return a base item with the original appearance. Another Transmutation Stone will be required to reapply the skin.
That was random.. The OP didnt mention them
Except they should be able to allow you to transfer your legendary along with the old transmute item to a white to make it account bound method. After you do that use the splitter to take the legendary back out on the new character. Yes we need to pay to do it, not the best we could hope for but it is something.
This is assuming the legendary items can still be transmuted. Though I have seen nothing indicating a change to that.
When the Tuesday patch hits use the special item you will get in the mail to un-transmute it and you should be good to go. Also, enjoy the new effects Eternity is getting.
They confirmed it today during the live developer feed. Transmuted legendaries will NOT be upgraded to ascended.
In order to get the upgrade to ascended, you’ll have to untransmute your legendary with a new item they are releasing called a “Transmutation Splitter.”
Lets hope that means it will be possible for legendary weapons that have been transmuted multiple times. Otherwise it is a non issue in my opinion.
If I were to guess, I’d say that the transmutation retains only two items of information on each transmuted object. The first piece of information is data on the item that provided the skin, the second is on the data that provided the stats. If you transmuted a legendary multiple times, I believe it would retain the skin data through each transmutation, only changing the data for the item that provided the stats.
Then again, it might retain the previously transmuted stats as part of the skin information, but I have a feeling that is not the case. If this is intended as a fix for transmuted legendaries, that would be a painful oversight for those who own them.
I pretty much assumed the above two scenarios.
I’m not too worried though. If they did overlook this I am confident they will make good with everyone.
I was farming Dunwell (RIP mate) when I thought, well, what am I going to do with all the gold? Errr…buy skins I guess.
Then what? Jump around in LA?
And I stopped playing.
I think I am about 2 steps away from this. I stopped today and started thinking about where the game was supposed to go and where it did go. Realized the game has turned into something I don’t enjoy. I may stick around to help my wife get Dusk (the last thing she needs for Twilight) and call it for the time being. I will likely monitor the changes, but unless a significant change happens, I wont likely come back. Especially with the list of sandbox mmos coming out in the near future.

The “Looking Ahead” article said we will be building a precursor, not crafting. I’m guessing it’s in the same sense we “built” a legendary. There are crafting components involved, but it is going to be built in the mystic forge, with a recipe, like the legendries are.
The looking ahead article stated they would be crafted with level 500 weapon crafting professions, might want to reread it.
Max height/bulk norn male here, finished Liadri. I did not notice any camera issues during the gauntlet. I also have no issues in jump puzzles. I actually prefer doing them on my norn over my smaller human alts. Maybe because I have been playing a large norn since the first beta weekend I am used to it? Its not that bad at all.
They would have announced something like that… They would not change something like that anyways. No reason to do so and the backlash would be rather large… It would be unfair to everyone working on them.
I think they are referring to “if” it will be in this upcoming patch. They note the new crafting will be but not precursors (which is too significant to leave out of the patch content list if it will be).
My issue is that I cannot bring myself to play any alts because my main has Sunrise. I feel like time spent playing other characters is wasting the effort I put into it. I would like to play with Sunrise on my other characters. I have 2 other 80s and they can both use it. (Guard/Mesmer).
My wife has also completed Twilight minus Dusk. The price of that weapon is just laughably high. MF is too risky. They say the 500 crafting is in the next update but didn’t mention precursors yet. Would like clarification on that as they did say that was their plan a little while back.
Not sure, but I do want to know when the patch will come… My wife needs Dusk for Twilight… and that is it. She just got the last T6 mats she needed tonight after a big rush this week with my help. Looking foreword to her finishing it so we can run around as a matched pair (I have Sunrise currently).
I don’t know… Infinite Light is pretty kitten impressive, and probably the only skin I have yet to see on a player. Well exluding underwater legendaries.
I am about half way done with this video and cannot find a single thing to disagree with him on, in fact I think I have been saying almost the exact same things myself for years.
Yeah i transmuted my Flameseeker but there somethings that still worried me, if you link the weapons in the chat the name will be orange.
The “legendary” word above the class weapon dissapered , and you can put in Mystic Forge with another 3 exotic weapons
Then there go my question, our legendaries, are REAL legendary weapons ? , or we only have exotic weapons with puple name ? I can still put 1 transmuted Twilight and a transmuted Sunrise and turn in a Eternity ?
There a lot of thins that are worring me , they seem exotic weapons with only purple names.
And if this is true, this not only a bug or fail desing like previus issue, they are lying us messed our legendary weapons.
I expect a answer soon, and if they are messed a REAL SOLUTION, no a " we cant do anything sorry……", I pay for my mistakes if i bug, exploit etc…. i expect that arena.net pay for their mistakes if they lie their costumers.
And im worried a lot because arena.net dont have 1 minute of their time to answer some important matter to us, it cant be good.
I am worried also. I just transmuted today because it looked like they fixed it, and they didn’t.
I log in to do my dailies and then get off. Interest collapsed completely after I finished Sunrise. Might do the extra length to complete monthlies too but don’t know yet. Nice to know I have a pile of Karma when I come back in case I want to play again. Though lately I have been considering stopping altogether.
