can some one tell me

I was wondering if i can buy weapon from cantha and use it with out buying faction. Will the item poof?

no o.othat would be silly

Straight from the Factions FAQ on the GW site:

Will my core profession characters be able to equip Assassin or Ritualist items?

A Guild Wars character is able to equip any non-customized item. However, because the character lacks the associated Attribute, the character's use of such items will not be particularly adept.

Can I trade my Factions items to those who do not own Factions?

Yes, you may trade items. However, such items cannot be equipped if they are customized items or if they are pieces of armor, which are always customized to an individual character.


edit: of course you cannot actually go to Cantha without having the expansion, but a guild member can meet you in your guild hall and transfer the item to you.

sweet thanx
