Guild Wars 2

FOTM can get ascended ring easy. But i don’t like dungeon.I just like wvw.Laurels are hard to get,and i have a few character…
Can you make the ascended ring be get in other way?
Gw2 will add ascended armor in the future.Maybe you can make all ascended accessories easy to get.For example, badges of honor and a few gold.

that would make it to easy. achievment chests give out thousands of Badges if you have enough points, and farming the apporpriate gold would be fast. laurals are not hard to get, you just need to not spend them on other things. i definitly would save up 20 of them(10 days and monthiles or just 20 days, all without achievment chests) and spend some of those badges of honor to get an ascended amulet,matter a fact ,i did it before they gave me 1.5k badges of honor. you other easy option is guild commendations, get 12 of them and 5 gold, and you can buy ascended rings. and if you do all 4 commedation awarding guild events, its only 2 weeks.

Not every one have hight achievment.New player,pvp player or wvw player,they are all low achievment. Have hight achievment player,already have so many ascended ring,because they farm fotm.So ascended ring must have a another way to get,that is the first.

The seacond,Gw2 will add ascended armor in the future. Ascended armors and accessories that will make a serious equipment oppression.I think no one want to do that isn’t it?So we need make ascended accessories easy to get.

And about laurals,i think many player have 3 or more characters,even some characters have power and con two kinds of equipments. they need how many months to get all the ascended accessories?

If you do 10+20 fotm dailies : 10 days (2 rings)
If you do guild missions: 4 weeks (2 acc)
Fotm about 50 times: 50 hours (10hr/week, ~month) (1 back)
250 badge of honor + 1 monthly Acheev + 10 dailies: 10 days (1 amulet)

so it still takes a month to get ascended

i should note i have 4k achievment points. i got these but i only have 1 ascended ring, and 2 ascended amulets, cost me 250 wvw earned badges, 80 laurlels, 5 gold and 12 commendations.(karma and MF infusions included for the amulets) and my FOTM level is 6. i joined at the end of february and currently have 3 level 80s. i dont play alot and have farmed for maybe 30 of the 715 hours i have logged in guildwars 2. achievments are not hard to get. i think the current system is fair. ascendeds are meant to be hard to get becasue they are ascended. this is the tier between legendary and exotic, and need to be appropriatly difficult to get. exotics are in general easy to get, and legendaries are near impossible. ascendes need to be very difficult to obtain, and as is, they are fine.

i just wvw. lol

You don’t need Ascended gear in WvW, it barely gives a stat increase, the only reason for getting ascended gear is FotM!

wvw gives you daily. daily = laurels. laurels = ascended.

For example,all PTV Ascended gear can get more 122 power. in wvw,eat food can get 100 power and 70 vitality. (Ascended gear – Exotic gear)> 1/2 * food . Or 122/(100+70)=71% . “eat food”,all wvw commander would say.

122 power almost equal to one Exotic gear.

Your math is comparing trinket differences to food, not trinket differences to themselves. You’re getting an additional 92 main stat and 31 minor stat (potentially 62, but you might be getting MF or CritDmg).

For the sake of this argument, you’re getting 154 stats more than Exotic (let’s say PTV gear).
Ascended Stats:
570 Power
376 Toughness
376 Vitality

Exotic Stats:
358 + 150 Power (508 Power)
255 + 90 Toughness (345 Toughness)
255 + 90 Vitality (345 Vitality)

Now, let’s compare them.
570 Power vs 508 Power. (570 – 508)/570 = 10.877% better (62 stats).
376 Toughness vs 345 Toughness. (376 – 345)/376 = 8.245% better (31 stats).
376 Vitality vs 345 Toughness. (376 – 345)/376 = 8.245% better (31 stats).

Overall:
570 + 376 + 376 = 1322.
508 + 345 + 345 = 1198.
(1322 – 1198) / 1322 = 9.380% better (124 stats).

Now, if 124 points, 10% of your trinkets not overall stats, is going to make or break you, you might want to hop out of that white gear and put on some blue or green gear, at least.

Lastly:
An average player wearing 2x 1h weapons and full ascended trinkets (let’s say PVT again) will have 2551 stat points.

An average player wearing 2x 1h weapons and full exotic trinkets (PVT again) will have 2399 stat points.

(2551 – 2399)/2551 = 5.958% better (124 stats).

And then we toss in base stats (916 * 4 = 3664).

(6215 – 6063) / 6215 = 2.446% better (124 stats).

In Conclusion:

Will 2.4% stats (124 points) make or break your build? Is it that overpowered? The food you listed gives 170 stat points. That’s more than the difference between ascended/exotic trinkets.

Instead of making these complaint threads and trying to throw random maths at people, you could be doing your daily or a fractal or a guild mission.

Don’t like dungeons so much either, any other else is probably okay, but just NOT the FotM.
For now, we still have another choice to get ascended gears outside the FotM, EXCEPT the back items.
It seems the only way players can get the ascended backpieces with the stats they really want and really need is still FotM now. I don’t really think this is a good way for both ArenaNet and for GW2, almost forcing every players who want the ascended backpieces to do FotM even if they don’t want to.
I thought there should be another way for players to get ascended gears which they need without FotM needed. Especially the ascended back items.
Wish Anet could hear our voices.

You mean like… craft it via the mystic forge?

I thought any other way will be nice for players who don’t really want to go FotM.
At least, don’t make FotM the only way to get some kind of gear, that may limit the game.
Like using huge amount of laurels is annoying, but still it can be done in times.
Also, WvW has most kinds of the ascended gears now, maybe it could also be acquired by laurels + badges just like other ascended gears?

And for the ascended gears outside the Fractals, the back items sort seems to be the last piece of them.
I thought it will be much better to make players could get the gears they want by using the way they want.
I deeply believe that ArenaNet is also working hard to achieve this target. Here is the hoping to this thing will come true one day.
