Default Add PvP skins to PvE

Now, with Tolkano all the PvP community can access to the till now exclusive PvE skins. For example, I can have a character with an obsidian armor without requiring all the materials (ectos and shards) and going down to the FoW. Ok, it can be hard you need a lot of reward points, but it can be done.

On the other hand, there are some skins that can be only obtained from Tolkano, like Prism Staff.

I would like to have that skin on my PvE mesmer.

I suggest that anet make all that skins available to pve players.

For instance, they can be dropped from the zaishen chest, if you want to keep them in a pvp-way of get it.

They don't. EotN stuff aren't available through RP.

And for ignorant people, it'll cost the equivalent of 360 zaishen keys to get your set of FoW for PvP characters. That's 150% the cost of getting a PvE set, and it's not exactly trivial as people would like to put it.

I didn't say it was trivial, I said that is hard to get it. I know the cost of getting the obsidian armor through tolkano.

GWEN skins are available through RP(PvE), seeing as GWEN is RP(PvE).

Lol, then it is my fault. Maybe a good idea to link those skins in the wiki.

RP=Reward points, not roleplaying (aka PvE, which isn't the same as roleplaying anyway).

But anyway /notsigned
OP doesn't know the whole story.

This is basically what I was going to say. It's not like PvP players get FoW armor for free or anything. There are maybe 100 people that have it unlocked on a PvP character, and how many PvE players have it? Thousands...

Worst. Argument. Ever.

Also, the argument "Why should PvP have things PvE doesn't?" is dumb. There are many things that are PvE-only, and things that are much harder to obtain in PvP, so it really balances out, and mostly in favor of the PvE side.

I'd only like to have the shield of the dead in PvE.
Tanzit's Defender is the only shield that has that skin in PvE.
