Can we get rid of prisms please?

Worthless? I can't keep prisms on the MB because they sell out too fast.
Stop trying to take my gil away. Stttooopppp

And I don't need to run to a MB to get prisms when I can easily craft my own. The dungeons practically give you the base ones for free and you can buy them in more donuts.

What other people are sayin is that its clearly a better way to do it , but u guys just dont seem to like the change its an inconvenience and there are better ways to do it , i dont get how anyone can argue this

My point with the NPC is that with every other service in exchange for gil (repairs, melding, whatever) is that there is always an NPC associated with it. You can't repair/meld your own gear for gil you need dark/carbonized matter. So why would glamour be any different?

Oh, alright, I get it now. Rather than crafting them for free you'd rather pay out the nose? It's infinitely more convenient to craft them yourself. Except for wvr and gsm, all mats can be acquired for 1 venture. Wvr and gsm are the only mats you may need to buy. You can easily run a stock of over 300 base prisms without paying for a single one.

The recipe books to unlock the glamour prism recipes. As far as I know, the vendor that sells it requires at least one level 50 to unlock, and I think there was an issue with trying to learn the recipes on a crafter below level 50 (even though the prisms are lvl 30 recipes).

Also GW2 has transmutation charges, which aren't as simple to obtain as glamour prism (unless you want to spend gems).

You're acting like you have to glamour something every 5 minutes. Besides, even if they were to change it to a gil cost, they'd likely be adding an NPC to deal with that (similar to repairs, melds, etc.). What'd be the difference between going to an NPC, and going to the marketboard?

Im talkin about a system to where noboy is involved but urself something much easier and convenient

Given SE's track record, they'd still just add some kind of glamour NPC that'd do all the glamouring, not a menu option that'll let you glamour anywhere.

Or like other MMO's such as WoW, Wildstar, LOTRO, and SWTOR that have a system where you don't need anyone else to help you with glamour unless you REALLY want a specific crafted only item template for some reason.
