So we all noticed that RNG for a ring + RNG on the stat you get isn’t that what we all want.

So I thought about something similar to that. You can still stick to your RNG I don’t care pretty much (though it is frustrating getting only one ring after over 20 dailys).

But how about you would drop a “Ticket for a ring”.

So when we at least get a ring-ticket we could CHOOSE what we want.
That would also work for the infused ones. Just give the name something like “Ticket for a ring (infused)”.

Whatever. We got so much samplesdata from that fractals (me alone over 200+ fractal runs). That this might not be impossible for that little Asura to create is it…

Hope you read it and answer with your thoughts.

I like the idea. However, it wouldn’t be exciting as getting the actual loot.

Instead, how about exchanging the weapon with another weapon instead? If you like the loot, you get the suspense of surprise. If you hate it, at least you can exchange it painlessly.

It works the same way as mention on the thread.

Hmm… if you mention the excitement. There still could be something like a " Random ticket ring" and a “Ticket ring”. So there are 2 different drops. If you get the Random which would be more common you get a ring again of any kind.
But if you’re lucky and get the “ticket ring” you can choose.

Of course however that would need some inner thoughts of how the droprate should be and where to place those things. But I would like that system much more than what we have now and I’m sure not only me.

They need a non-fractal method of obtaining ascended gear already.

WvW players that are dedicated have been complaining endlessly about there being no other reliable method to obtaining ascended gear. Which is rather needed as any stat boost is an advantage, and in a close fight the smallest increase in stats could be all the difference.

Seriously, put the randomly dropped ascended items in the Orr altar chests, give fractals the tickets so they can choose what they get. Fractals is for the small group goers, allow dragons and the altar chests a decent (that means several handed out guarenteed over the multitude of players involved) chance at random non-bound ascended gear. This creates a market, which creates a more easily accesable route (and shuts up people complaining about the gear int he process) This allows the grinders of the fractals (personally I am not a fan of the dungeouns and won’t be till they give us the trinity back) the option to choose as they are doing the drudgery of constantly running the same thing endlessly, thus they deserve to choose the reward they get.

I would also add Ascended gear to the WvW vendor lists so the WvW crowd can get them without having to leave the killing fields.

Oh look, everyone is happy.
