“For 75 relics you can buy a Simple Infusion that grants you +5 resistance to Agony in a defensive Infusion slot, or you can go big and spend 225 for a Versatile Infusion that also offers +5 Agony resistance and can go in any sort of Infusion slot.”
if that’s all infusions are, that’s even more proof of that exotics are still relevant, especially if you can’t put runes/sigils in ascended gear.
I’m so glad I avoided jumping on the HUR DUR doom sayers bandwagon
Aye i saw this yesterday or day before
Tis only what you can do for all

I suspect there’s more to the Versatile Infusion other than the +5 Agony, otherwise why make a different Infusion and why make it cost so much more? Perhaps additional stats or some other interesting mechanic to make it worth the cost? I dunno.
Also they mention some of the other things you can buy with fractal relics. It will be interesting to see what other items we can get, but they did mention one that I’m curious about – the Gift of Ascension. New Mystic Forge Ascended weapon perhaps? I’m guessing though that they won’t release all the mats for it for a few months.

It’s been confirmed the back piece will come from the forge, so the gift is likely for that.
