Guild Wars 2

Will we ever be able to craft armors / jeweles with both stats?

I play a toon that is specced condition dmg. I`m sure I`m not the only one.

what’s stopping you from making condition armor and slotting in MF jewel or crest in it? Unless you want to have both stats maxed up to crazy levels OFC.

Not that I wouldn’t love the idea of making stuff with exact stats I would need like toughness/MF/crit for example.

One of the dungeon armor sets from CoE has condition damage + MF.

The halloween Mad king set has power, condition damage and MF.

I don’t see whether it makes a difference whether it’s gained from crafting or not. I MF farm Necro and whilst I have a fair share of Explorer’s Noble/Pirate gear I think what you’re looking for is “Superior Rune of Scavenging”. Pricey but in time (with that 6 rune) pay for itself.

I was not talking about Dungeon sets / Mad king loot, or anything like that. What are you on about?

To me it seams unfair that the only craftable MF armors / Jewels are the ones with PowerPrec.
I`d like to be able to craft whatever I chose, if I chose Vit + Toughness + MF, I should be able to do it.

Why are we limited to power / prec / mf ? What`s the reasoning behind this (if any)?

19 gold for 6 runes of scavenging will take a really long time to pay for themself in my opinion, and I don`t want to kitten my dps/surv and wear stuff.

Pirate = Vit+Power+ Cond dmg = no mf
Explorer = power +prec + mf = no good for me.
noble = !??

If you’re looking for those stats, traveler’s stuff. Don’t know exactly how/where to make it, but it’s power, condition damage, magic find. Or personally I’m rocking the Jatoro’s armor which is the same thing but the Runes of Scavenging already build in.

Best of luck to you. If you can figure out how to make the stuff, please post it, I’m curious too. If I find more, I’ll be sure to let you know.

Pirate runes have magic find, superior will give you +50%.

How about not seeing a single bonus to drops until reaching above 250% mf. That’s whats stopping me.

I’m specced for cond damage on engi right now and nope, nothing.

Cheapest max magic find gear right now is Rare Explorer armor, Explorer main + Off Hand, Superior Sigil of Luck on one weapon (other can slot an exotic opal jewel), and mithril opal jewelery with the Exotic Opal jewels. Get 5 Superior Runes of the Pirate and 1 Superior Rune of the Noble with a Major Rune of the Traveler (this does not result in max magic find, you’re off by 3%, but the Major Traveler is stupidly cheap compared to the Superior) This nets you 130%-145% magic find (depending on stacks) for about 3 gold. It’s a pretty good farming set, since Power+ Precision leads to the best tagging in group events.

Yes, you do have 7 Rune Slots. Your aqua breather also has a slot and counts for rune benefits. The Noble rune does involve a few runs through Caudecus Manor explorable, but you get some decent cash from those runs.

Truly max magic find gear involves 2 Rings of Yakkington and one of the backpieces with magic find, plus the Superior Traveler rune. This ups the total to 144-159% from equipment.
