Guild Wars 2

Just thought I’d link straight to the wiki which now shows total reagent cost for agony resistance in the new slots in rings/back piece. http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Agony_Infusion

This might be my personal opinion but this kind of makes the entire speculation about how far to take the ar moot for 99% of the player base. Remember, these are ONLY reagent cost, the actual cost of +1 agony resist items are not even in there.

2 More points to consider, the current completable content in fractals requires 50 ar at level 40 (easily doable with max +5 ar in new slots) and 70 ar at level 50 (I believe people have cleared this with less than 70 ar, but 70 ar is doable with +10 ar in new slots).

What I take from this, I’ll eventually upgrade my rings and my back piece to 15 ar total (10 new slot and +5 from offensive/defensive/omni slot) to be able to run fractal level 50 in due time. I’m quite sure if/when new fractal levels are released we’ll be seeing more ar slot get opened up (looking at you hopefully soon to be ascended armor).

Final note, thanks to everyone who is actively working on the wiki to keep all of us well informed.

What? You mean you don’t want to spend the gold on making 6 +20’s for your armor, 2 +20’s for your weapons, and 6 for your back/ring/earring/necklace. You don’t have 100k gold sitting around waiting for you to make your AR multiple times what is necessary?

I just have to,

Considering you need 524,288 +1 agony infusions to make a +20, it would cost you around 100k gold EACH infusion, buying them at a bit below the current (20s is what I’m using), so more like 1.4 million gold at current prices for trinkets, armour, weapons.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t the playerbase have like, 500k gold total?
