Guild Wars 2

I’m curious as to what stat setups ascended weaponry will follow. Will they mirror the stat choices available to what is on jewelry, or will they mirror what’s currently available to what is on weapons now?

I doubt a Dev will answer this but it would be nice to know.

They pretty much deliberately release too little information to avoid a riot.

Look at it this way:

1. Release no information, and people get bored, go check out other games, maybe play some, but likely just take more time off. Forums become a ghost town (bad for business)

2. They release just enough information to get the forums to explode with activity, and get people SEARCHING wildly for more information unable to find it, but being interested enough to look and get into the game to maybe horde everything and anything in prep.

3. They release all the info, stats, required crafting items, time-lines for creation, status of bound vs. unbound. People destroy the economy overnight, players freak out and scream like crazy for a week before the patch, causing mass hysteria. Nerf this, buff that, but what about this combo???

So which option would you choose?

I prefer more information up front so I can calmly theorycraft, but too many people are unable to take information as anything other than biblical fact, and explode when anything changes or anything additional gets added.

So they release just enough information to spark debate, and then calmly refuse to answer any specific questions on the forums for a week.
