Guild Wars 2

Do I hold on to these or what? As much as I’m afraid Anet might make them vendor-able as soon as I throw them all away, they’re starting to take up precious inventory/bank space. Halp. D:

Ascended Armor crafting is expected to be released by year end (or shortly after). I would not suggest destroying those.

Personally, I would suggest considering one of the currently available weapon crafts that might benefit your characters.

Meh, leveling one of the crafts all the way to 500 to make an ascended weapon just to get rid of them just doesn’t seem worth it. I suppose I’ll just have to delete some of them, as they’ll no doubt become a problem in time, thanks anyways. :/

Why would you get rid of Ascended weapons? Unless you are planning to outfit all your characters with multiple Legendary weapons, what would replace them (at least for the next year or so)?

You can ‘get rid’ of them at level 450, as that’s the level you need to refine them.

I had just started a suggestions thread about adding more uses for things that currently only have one limited use: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/suggestions/More-uses-for-limited-use-things/first#post2987942

Even once you hit 450 and can refine them, it takes 14 silver and 2 Obsidian Shards to get rid of 100, which is less than half a stack. Given that you only need 500 Bloodstone Dust (5 Bricks’ worth) to make an ascended weapon, I say figure out how many ascended weapons you realistically plan on crafting, then toss the rest. Even if you change your mind later, if you’ve got them running out your ears right now, you probably won’t have too much difficulty restocking if you need them again.

As Grimm suggested, you might consider waiting to see if Ascended Armor uses them before you decide what to do. Currently, I’ve been stashing stacks of them in a more-or-less unused bag on one of my alts, the only one who can craft them, while I try to decide if ascended gear is worth all the cost for materials. (Lots of laurels or karma for Obsidian, crafting exotics to level up craft, salvaging exotics for Dark Matter, etc. It adds up.)
