Ye i know .. WHAT A WASTE !!

Thank you for testing

yikes, using an eldrith scroll for this infusion? I feel really sorry for your loss of time and skill points.
Imagine if there were exotic type infusions.

Doesn’t bode well for crafting actual ascended gear..

Wow, they weren’t kidding when they were saying that Ascended and infusion content were a bridge to legendary items. All of that for just a blue infusion?

The key part is +5 Agony resistance, obviously.
How useful that is, I don’t know.

Probably not alot after they redo the instance with nerfs after people cry its to hard.

and +5 Vit….. ?

where’d u guys get the kraka shells so soon? :O

I think it’s not a waste, that just means it’s gonna be really hard to have the ascended stuff with infusion etc…

BTW , i made the infusion too, just because i like new stuff

And now we’re going to see ancient bone go up in price maybe, lol.

Ohhh Consortium Chests ^^ .

And people still won’t see the huge grind in this game…

I’m noticing. If every ascended item is a 1/4 legendary grind, I won’t do the new dungeon. I don’t do any dungeons now, due to inactive guild, so yeah.

I wonder why every mystic forge recipe has to involve some ridiculous grind. Even upgrading mats is kind of a grind. Put 250 silk, 1 gossamer, 5 crystalline dust, 5 philosopher’s stones in, get a net of 19 or less gossamer scrap out (if you get 20, you actually get +19 since you had to use 1 gossamer in the recipe).

the +5 vit that makes you 8-46% stronger

well at last some math experts says soo…….

Hmm … an Eldritch Scroll is required for a Fine-quality Infusion … I think it’s scary to think what it takes to make Masterwork, Rare, or even Exotic Infusions in future content.

In addition, the Infusions are account bound meaning that you wouldn’t be able to profit from it some how, but I suppose it’s good to know this stuff.

we simply need more “progressiion” at orr…..
Lets all “progress” orr events until gold is useless……

You might be able to get them unbound if you link them in some item and sell it … if they are salvageable … just an idea

That seems like a crazy amount of grinding for one upgrade item.

If they do really want to implement a gear treadmill, then you are not going to be able to sell Ascended gear… how else will they force people to grind dungeons?

The thing is, they don’t do that. Otherwise Path 3 of Arah would have been nerfed long ago on the 3rd boss. Just the same, they fixed a lot of “exploits” that allowed players to skip huge sections of it, so they mean it to be completed in full as hard.

Wow, if that’s what it takes to make one infusion…full Ascended items with infusions are going to be far beyond my ability (or desire) to reach. And if they introduce higher rarities of infusions…I shudder to think how much grinding those will need.

I had hoped infusions would only have stats that affected the fractals and nothing else, but I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised that it’s not the case.

It’s like they really have no idea how to make something not cost a stupid amount of grind and farmed mats, jesus.

Its almost as if they are new to the MMO scene…oh wait…

It really wouldn’t be that bad if it wasn’t for the scroll… but if you need a scroll for each one there are 14 slots on your character =>

14*50 = 700 SP’s to get full infused FINE gear

lmao. I love it.

Finally a way to get rid of my useless bones.

The 8-46% calculation was for the base stats on the item. Before the infusion.

And they say that these will be more common than Legendary weapons.

You can buy skillpoints with tokens from the new dungeon.

Malediktus.9250:

How many skill points for how much grinding of the dungeon ?

Malediktus.9250:

Yeah but you need those tokens to buy the stuff to make ascended gear to even use an infusion.

This is why the mystic forge is a complete failure concept.
To unclear on what your reward might before you have to purchase the items.

You are better off letting other people do the testing and buy everything of the trading post.
If you cant buy it of the trading post then dont care about it, not like this game has a dps meter to show lack of gear anyway.
