Guild Wars 2

Please can we get a shop added that sells the Fractal Weapon Skins in FOTM for either Daily Fractal Relics or the Normal fractal Relics. I dont care if its a huge amount like 40 daily marks or 4k relics. But this RNG is killing me.

There is no alternative way to getting those weapon skins other than having luck in a daily chest drop. They can not be traded (account bound) and not aquired anywhere else.

I do think they should be rare but not only based off of RNG.

I made a very similar post myself a little while ago. The way they’re set up now is completely against the dungeon reward design philosophy, even Colin Johanson specifically said as much.

As someone who adores the Fractal skins, it’s just unacceptable to me that the only way to get them is RNG, without even the hope of earning enough money to buy them via the trading post. It means that as someone who wants two Fractal Swords on my mesmer, I have such an infinitesimally small chance to actually get that it’s positively negligible. Slavishly grinding a dungeon to the point that I might as well be a human bot is not a viable option, nor should I be in any way expected to do such a thing.

In my older post, I mentioned a “higher tier” of dungeon token that should be able to be traded in for the Fractal skins, and so I emphatically agree that the dungeon weapons should be available for the new relics. The dungeon token system was designed and put in place for a reason, and that reason (I can only assume) was for the sake of the sanity of people who have their heart set on those items. The new, higher tier of token creates a delineation between people who do the lower level Fractals vs higher, which is appropriate for these weapons.

They can stay RNG in addition, but GIVE US A GUARANTEED WAY TO GET THEM… I’m begging you

Another thought: If they stay RNG, and only RNG, they should not be account bound. Let us either grind for them, or grind for the cash for them, and not be stuck with something we don’t want or can’t use. If one of us gets a hammer and we want the greatsword, we should be able to sell one and get the other.
