RNG babay! I have these things coming out of my kitten and I hardly run the place.

I have a guy in my regular group who is swimming in them too. I get the RNG for things like the mystic forge. It just really sucks for progression to be so RNG dependent. I figure if they changed it for the rings, maybe they’ll get the point and change it for the necessary crafting components too.
No. You can just craft them. Consult GW2 Wiki for more info on that.
No, you can’t just craft them. You can upgrade/downgrade (5:3 ratio), but you can’t create new ones if you don’t have any (or enough) to convert in the first instance.
