I just realized today when I changed my spec I would have to get all new ascended gear… It’s almost enough to make me not want to play the game. I know that sounds like a crybaby thing to say but this system is so bad.

The neck is the worst offender. I have to wait another month to build my new trait set of gear because of the mandatory wait time to get my laurels… If I have the time to play a lot I should be rewarded by getting gear faster than someone who plays 1 hour a day and only does their daily.

The current system seems to punish the people who play more because now I have more hours logged and less to show for it. Someone who plays 1 hour a day and gets a full ascended set was basically more efficient than me because I spent all these extra hours only to achieve the same goal.

I’m just saying their needs to be more options other than the casual daily reward for 1 laurel. At least add necklaces and accessories to the fractal chests as a chance to drop or something.

Some people may be fooled but the rest of us know that the system is designed to keep log in numbers up for every day of the month. Most people only log in to do the daily because you really gain nothing else by putting time in to this game.

Also how do you expect to push people in to trying different builds when it will take them months to gear their characters for them to even be viable? You say you want more build variations but you make it an uphill battle that isn’t even worth the time.

that is because Laurels were not meant to be the primary way to gain ascended gear, but if you so wished to do it that way it would take you a while. They want people to still run fractals as a main source of gaining ascended items.

Totally agree with you on this. I’m indecisive about which ones i want to get and the current system sucks. At the very least i’d like them to change them to being only account bound like how the karka shell accessory is so if i decide to change my spec later on it can atleast be used on another character, then my time won’t have been a complete waste.

the only way to get ascended amulets right now is through laurels.

And also the guild events are the only way to get the accessories. So I’m forced to join a guild I don’t want to be in because I can’t just join a pick up group for a bounty… Awesome.

Anyone who participates in a guild event should get a commendation token. Since you want to make it more beneficial to guilds make it so guild memebers get 2 tokens (current system). Non guild members get 1 token (new system). It will take non guild members twice as long to get the accessories and will still incentivize being in a guild but won’t force guilds on anyone who doesn’t want to join them

What they should have done was make guild missions available for everyone right from the start and not have to spend a ridiculous amount of points to unlock them. Introduce new content, make it so it’s only available to people in large guilds. It’s basically a giant middle finger to people who just want to stay in small guilds with just their friends. You’re kind of forced to join a bigger guild if you want to do the guild missions. It will take most of the smaller guilds years just to unlock the missions.

They need to bring in some sort of currency exchange system so you can transfer stuff like tokens, fractal relics, laurels, mystic coins etc etc into other things at a reasonable rate.

That said they also need to introduce more actual content into the game and stop faffing about with currency and highly limited daily at best monthly at worse stuff to do, its just sort of pathetic how much the “content” updates have lacked anything really worth being called content.
