Guild Wars 2

hello guys I wanted to ask opinions on what is better and less expensive to get to 500.grazie in advance for your advice.

I would advise you not to be in a hurry, and craft the new t7 mats each day until you hit 470. There’ really no point in getting to 500 until you have 5 each of dragonite ingots, empyreal stars and bloodstone bricks anyway. I would also personally wait until you have enough Deldrimoor planks and steel to make your first weapon too (even though you can buy those on the tp).

After you hit 470 discovering and crafting exotics is the only way to gain serious experience. Go shields, maces, daggers then swords with whichever inscription is cheapest to make.

Also, if you are going to be crafting a lot in one sitting do it in the day before WvW resets.

Right now, givers weapons would be cheapest to craft but you should also check the resale value of the weapons.

During asc weaponsmith launch, i actually made quite some profit, crafting high value weapons, like destroyer or sentinel weapons.

At level 470, once you have all the basic ascended mats you need, get black lion salvage kit, if possible, and craft the cheapest exotics you can and salvage them for globs of dark matter. You will need these later to craft ascended inscriptions or insignia, and the more you have the better.
