So what about transmutations?
So far i understood i got to BUY one transmutation stone from the shop every time i want to apply a style to an item.
Gems can be bought with gold at the current rate exchange or with RL money costing 0,0125€ each.
That is
- 20 to 25 gems for each single item application on 1-79 level items, which on a 6 armour + 2 weapons set means 200 gems at best for a total of 2,5€
- 32 to 40 gems for each single item application on 80 level items, which on a 6 armour + 2 weapons set means 256 gems at best for a total of 3,2€
In this process you pay for you nonetheless you’re gonna lose the original worn item look/style which will be unavailable till you can get it again by dropping it or more painfully by buying it off your token marks or crafting it, AND you’re gonna lose the original item from where you gain the look to apply.
So this is the problem i see i don’t want to lose nor the original item look nor the item itself i use for skinning another one!!!
Am I paying for it and be deprived of some of my property?
Concluding I’d rather like a system which:
a. let you store any look/style from the items that you wear once or that binds to your character (the latter feels more even)
b. ANET could give us a limited amount of empty slots for styles we collect and offer slots space upgrade in the shop like for bank or inventory upgrade
c. Applying the look/style to an item will always cost transmutation stones like now, but at least we won’t lose what you have already collected.
Thoughts?
