Reusable[edit]

I am wondering how the usage of this armor works, if it's anything like the Costumes from the original Guild Wars. Once purchased, can I reuse it on all characters? Let's say I use it on a new char, but then acquire new armor for that char; can I get another one of these items and make the new armor have this skin? In other words, do they function like the Hall of Monuments rewards, where you can have an indefinite supply or reskins? Or will I have to use my own transmutation stones to keep the look of the armor? And are they available on all characters? --Kristofferus 18:12, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

I have the same problem but I think this is a one time purchase sadly. Like you I was hoping it would be like HoM a one time purchase. I presume you can use transmution stones but I am yet to see this confirmed. For these reasons this skin is currently sat in my bank unused on my currently low level armour. Shame really. Come on ANet sort it out :( --SK 18:41, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
That's right. Upon purchase you receive a Primeval Armor Package (or something named like this). When double-clicked it gives you all 5 armor pieces. When you double-click an armor piece, menu shows up just like in Transmutation Stones requiring you to put a second item to apply a skin to. So you can say this armor has Transmutation Stone included in itself. However, it's only on its first usage - further changes require a Transmutation Stone. And yes, it is a one time purchase for one character only.----Metatail 20:17, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

Disapointing, 1 perchase multi use costumes are the only way anybody i know will ever buy these 192.168.104.83 18:37, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

Quick Question...[edit]

I do know this can only be used once after you buy it. However, can I buy this item multiple times from the store? Or is it once per account? Also, if I apply this to my armor, can I transfer its appearance to a new armor piece via Basic Transmutation Stone? ~jonnieboi05 talk 00:21, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

I edited the original submission which answers your question. --Phawkes talk 10:50, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
