Fun fact: Using one tome of knowledge in the tutorial instance opens a waypoint outside it that you can use to wp outside the instance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leo G.4501 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 You know, I once suggested a new crafting profession around this that maintains the need for transmutation charges but also gives another means of obtaining them: https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/73950/new-upgrade-crafting-aesthetician Granted, that idea is flawed but in hindsight, I could see it more as a lite-craft that only goes up to lvl 100 and have it more aimed at the players that have a gazillion transmutation charges they don't use and turn it into gold by basically crafting sellable charges. Rather than leave the players who spent time farming up charges up a creek by removing charges, now they can capitalize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
