Guild Wars 2

Is it just me, or should ANet include a way to make Azurite Orbs from the Azurite Crystals? Why can all other orbs be crafted but not Azurite?

my guess is it’s an oversight, and they don’t change things just because they should be differently, but only when something is needed. If they release an item that requires azurite orbs and azurite orbs go to like 10g, they will add that promotion option or an alternative so that their new item is used. It makes a bit of sense – if you fix every little thing, you’ll spend all your time tinkering with little stuff. also, most things work themselves out and only the price of azurite orbs would be affected. if they tinker, then everyone that invested in azurite orbs lose big and they get mad.

The best solution would be not to mess it up in the first place.

The only way it will change is if they are needed for something to do with the LS arc. Your best chance is to hope for that.

Sentinel stats are the last combo Anet supports. It is all about DPS race.

Players who invested should never be considered when balancing or for updates. I lost 700g overnight on Gem store dyes, so be it I lost out. Should they have not brought dyes back because I had invested? Hell no. Same for this, sort out Azurite orbs and if investors get screwed it’s their own risk.

When ANet releases r500 Jeweler, I’m confident they will either make Azurite Orbs available again, or introduce a Transmorgrify recipe from Crystals to Orbs.
