Guild Wars 2

Anet, can you please allow us to switch stats (one time) on ascended armor/trinkets if you gonna switch stats so radically?

I dumped easily 180 g+ into set (outside of lving prof, grinding laurels, transmutation stones, 500 globs for back , tokens etc.) i have right now on a thief and with a change i can pretty much scrap the entire set up if i want to continue to do WvW.

It would be fine if you announced such drastic changes before you brought out ascended armor. Now that is crafted and new trinkets are bought, this change is just too sudden.

P.S. players in pve will still run zerker because of active defense, so only players that are truly punished are WvW and zerker is not an issue there.

Which stat would you switch to and why?

well right now i build around crit dmg + certain amount of survival (valk, sold), from i understand some pieces will stay pretty much same and some will lose effectivness

if that happens, i will have to rearrange entire armor set + trinkets to make up for the change

Well you still got about 2 months until the changes go live, so enough time to work on another set and enjoy your actial one

Your crit damage trinkets (backpiece, amulet, rings, and accessories) will lose effectiveness (becoming on par with every other set in the game). Everything else stays the same.

What do you switch out and why?

i can’t exactly what i have to switch yet because formula isn’t out yet as far as i know

i run zerker trinkets so this change will ruin my entire build

Something between 13:1 and 15:1. Shouldn’t make a big difference. What do you switch?

Anet’s endgame is now grinding gear like every other mmo. They just add the twist of changing around traits, and now actually stat allocations so you’re forced to farm every 2 months if you want to continue to play.

Yeahie! more grind on gear….. the way things are going im almost considering buying ESO and more than happy to the a subscription fee – to which i have NEVER played a subscription based game.

well done anet – finally almost had all my materials to craft ascended armor – lucky i didnt start!!

well i run sold/valk/zerk on armor and zerker trinkets, changes gonna hit trinkets pretty hard so i will have to rearrange the entire set… probably will have to change armor to zerker and change some trinkets to soldier..idk the exact effect yet so i can’t answer that question

the problem is not the grind itself but the amount of money i lose because of such change
