Crab Fear.1624 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I must have missed the issue settled years ago, or just didn't pay attention. I ask because I role play in the game and I take my immersion (semi-seriously) I was able to "perfect" my character's look with the abbadon gem store mask skin. I don't like seeing my char's real face when I hop in the water. I always keep my face covered like a super hero or vigilante......it's a secret. Today I was skimming across the water on top so it wouldn't change set looks from diving, but my dogs decided to have battle for a few secs and I had to go afk for a few moments. I came back to find my char being revived by a compassionate player, but WAAAAAAAH!, my face was revealed! I felt like Batman, or Spiderman without their masks! Or even Clark Kent!....I was naked! AHHHHHH! I still had to say thanks for the rez lmao. Great, now there is some player out there who knows my secret...he knows my face...and he can find my weakness! tl:dr please consider allowing transmutation of aqua-masks into regular headgear...otherwise going into water ruins my "immersion"..get it? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyNewb.6789 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 If you transmuted the aqua breather to a regular head piece then how would you breath underwater????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic. And btw there are already aquabreathers that look like regular head pieces... https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Black_Earth_Aquabreather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I think it was a joke. Regardless, as shown above, you can transmute your underwater headgear (if Medium or Heavy) to a skin that looks like non-underwater headgear (mask/helmet). Good luck.

You can breathe underwater in Tyria without them. The bigger question is why the game has two different pieces of gear, since the breather isn't required.

Scar.1793 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Wait... so if you remove the underwater breather the game does not remove your « land headgear » so you don’t lose stats? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Correct. Two different armor slots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joneirikb.7506 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Said before and will say again: ANet should just remove the aquabreather slot, and let us use the helm underwater. Alternatively enable a own "skin-over" to show the aquabreather over/instead of the helmet when going under water to help with the immersion. It's kitten retarded to break your armor set stats/runes/build from going down into water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeon.4583 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Aqua breather is needed now as unique Swim-Speed infusion item. But i wonder the most, why we can't dye them =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't want them messing up builds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
