Mashugana.2843 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 How can I customize my character appearance? Most MMOs have a system that lets you change just the appearance or armor skin of a character. Can you do this in GW2? Is it just outfits? Can I change my armor appearance at will? Or do you need transmute charges every time so you really do not change appearance very often?Thanks for any help :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanBB.4268 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 There are some skins that can be applied for free, but not many. Otherwise, yes, it costs a transmutation charge to change a skin.Dyes are free. As in, costs nothing to change the color of armor or outfit parts.When enabled, Outfits are displayed rather than the underlying armor. Turning off the armor head gear turns off the head piece of the outfit.So leveling up, don't waste transmutation charges as you swap out armor. Accept what you get or cover it with an outfit.[update] If you are a newbie, there are a great many very cheap dyes on the trading post, like coppers and silvers. So it doesn't cost much to get a variety of color choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaltyn of Torbins Deep.294 Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Also, if you are wanting to change your character's looks, you will need either a complete makeover kit or a self-style hair kit (for just the hair related stuff, including facial hair). Complete makeover kit will do everything but race and profession. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
