Guild Wars 2

It was the only thing not addressed in the stream or the blog posted. They didn’t mention what stat allocation it was changing to. I’m assuming Assassin’s (formerly Explorer) but it could just as well be Traveler’s or Pillager’s. Is there any other stats it could change to that I’m not thinking about?

Moving to investing: What kind of price spike will it have once the patch hits, if any? I purchased some and the price has increased slightly already, but will it increase even more?

That is interesting. Isn’t Assassin’s like a ruby orb though?

Assassins is like ruby but with power and precision switched (precision being primary).

I, too, am wondering if opals were somehow overlooked or if they’re intentionally being left nerfed (hard).

Yea Opals only have 2 stats on them kind of uhh I think oversight here.

It looks that way. Surely they’d just remove it from the game if it was just going to have two stats when all other gems of its tier have three?

Already noticed by ANet: in this thread

Rare Opal Orbs only have 2 stats!!

Hey folks,
I believe the Orb is still giving +power but the text is missing on the tooltip. Regardless, we have the issue in the tracker and we’ll have it fixed as soon as we can.
Thanks for the report!
