Guild Wars 2

Much like Legendary weapons are meant to be an absurdly expensive prestige version of the best weapons in the game, the Triforge Pendant is, in terms of cost, the most absurdly expensive accessory in the game.

The problem is that, with the release of Ascended jewelry, the Triforge Pendant may become out-dated. This is disappointing given the high cost of the item and its unique theme.

My suggestion is simple. Buff the Triforge Pendant to Ascended tier with 45 to each stat (instead of the current 40) and +7% crit damage (instead of the current 5%) with an infusion slot.

sure why not buff all the gear to ascended and stick them all in dungeons only and add gearscore dps meters and make them all drops instead of bought with tokens specific to the dungeon and add a cross server lfg tool system. what does that sound like.

while I share your frustration on the cost of the items end game what they are doing with this game on nov 16th is scary enough. one step at a time.

Whoa. That’s quite a slippery slope you’ve got there.

let me guess… you bought a triforge pendant and now you realize that soon you will have wasted all that gold right?

i guess that’s just life. it’s an exotic and idk why you should get a free upgrade just because you paid an inflated price.

Actually, I don’t even own one.

Looking at the few screenshots with comparisons between exotic and ascended, 48 turns into 50, that’s about 1.05 times, or 5% increase in power.
So if we followed the example, 40 would not turn into 45. It’ll be something around 42 for each, and 5.25 for critical.

The upgrade gets added to the stats and increased. This time, 15 turned into 18. That’s 1.2 times, or 20% increase in power in the stats that used to go in the upgrade slot.
Then 30+18+18=66/7=+9 to each one, or about 20% power extra.

In total so, if its power was increased accordingly, that’ll be 49 to each stat plus 6% critical and the infusion slot, after rounding down.

But I’d rather make it 42, because well…
It’s 42, dude. 42!
