The time required to make a full set of celestial gear is insulting. By the time it takes to make 1 item, I could have 2 full sets of dungeon armor with little effort put into it.
There is no reason for the limitation of charging quartz to exist.

Please get rid of it!

There are too many quartz in game. We get so many from simply running the race multiple times.

You can get 2 full sets of dungeon armor in 2 minutes? Dang, I must know of your methods.

Check your math, 1 piece of celestial gear takes 5 DAYS.

You gather the materials over the course of 5 days, but together it takes about 2 minutes.

You have to charge your Crystals for about 5 seconds.

You have to click craft 5.

You have to click craft 1.

Badabing, badaboom.

It takes 2 minutes of EFFORT but in terms of timegating the community he’s right, to get a set of celestial armor you basically have to wait another month from their date of release (assuming you log in every day). Celestial crafting has been made as some sort of daily quest.

But comparing it to getting 2 full dungeon armor sets, you can easily tell which one takes less effort and time.

Shut up, you’re just trolling.

He’s not comparing the effort, he’s comparing the time gating.

Because getting Celestial gear now is so much more different than in 25 days.

If you needed it that badly, that fast, you should be mining your Home Instance and running Sanctum Sprint. They both offer chances at Charged Quartz Crystals.

I have maxed jewelcrafting and weaponsmthing. I am allowed 1 Charged Quartz per day. 5 for inscription and 5 for a trinket.

Takes 5 days to get all of the materials together to make one weapon or trinket.

It depends on the dungeon, really.
I mean, if you have like 10 berserker warriors and you run CoF p1 everyday multiple times with them with 4 warriors + 1 mesmer groups, you will get 2 full CoF armor sets before you could ask yourself why would anybody have 10 berserker warriors.

And if you had 10 berserker warriors, you wouldn’t need a celestial set.

Or… split it between CoF and CoE, run all your 60 token runs, 360 tokens for the full set of runs per character and none of those paths are remotely difficult or time consuming. Just remember that’s 180/180 and you need to do 2 full sets of runs to have 360 tokens for both dungeons. 690 per dungeon (180,330,180 from one, 210,300,180 from the other), 4 characters, 1 day… 6 hours tops with a decent group.

Which is a lot more effort than just sticking a ton of Quartz on an alt and having him login to get a Charged Quarts then swapping to do your dailies.

Yes but it doesn’t require putting off playing for a month.

That’s just one method of doing it. You don’t have to have a character dedicated to doing that. Heck, I just charge it on my main whenever the new daily rolls around.

I mean playing in the gear you want to get, the time to get the set is way too annoying.

I like the time gating. Prevents people from getting everything day 1. People need to do less “GIMME GIMME NOW NOW!” and have some more patience. I support the time gate.

I’d love to see the items tradable so I can make sets for others, however.
