So, since half of the boss recipes are seemingly bugged half the time, can we just get the ability to buy them from the vendor like 600 tokens each?

You want them to do something related to dungeons when they’ve already said they don’t want to support that content anymore? Good luck with that…

Hell no man, the only reason I still do dungeons is to get them all. If you can buy them, like with the fractal tonic, it just removes another reason why i still play the game.

How would this possibly discourage you from playing dungeons?

He’s farming dungeons to collect all recipes.
If he can buy them from the vendor, his incentive to farm them by running dungeons is gone.
Pretty simple tbh. One could argue he could just ignore it and keep farming, but yeah.

Then he is going to stop running dungeons as soon as he has his recipes anyway. End result is the same.

Yes, but if he has to run dungeons daily for them, it won’t happen as fast.

Dungeon recipes are among the few niche drops you can get from a specific place. Even better, you can’t get them from TP and their drop rate isn’t abysmal like a precursor.

Things you craft from the recipes don’t provide gameplay advantage, you craft some exotic trinkets with somewhat unique stats – except they are not unique and you can get ascended trinkets with those stats if you want.

I wish we had more stuff like this for people who like to focus on one content. While they reward a player’s choice to focus on one content, they also makes the loot more interesting. I don’t think adding it to vendor is the same thing. I think it would have been perfect for Anet to not have included the option to buy Fractal Tonic, but still put the option to exchange it with something else, so that the ‘interesting, unique-loot’ factor is always there. Likewise, it will be great to have thr option to exchange the dungeon recipes for tokens, say 1000, but not buying them.

Isn’t? My experience shows something else. I have been running a dungeons a lot, had several precursor drops from them (well, that did likely involve a ton of luck), but have yet to see a single recipe.

Actions, not words.

Well, that’d be rip last decent gold you can get from dungeons…

Interesting, have collected 6 or 7 dungeon recipes after years of running dungeons and I am yet to drop a precursor there. Those drops are just a matter of RNG in the end, I guess.

Would hurt to see the recipes being added to the vendor as that would lead to people trying to cash in on the higher priced ones as much as they can just to completly abandon dungeons again after prices went down to nothing.
That is from the point of view of someone who owns some of the most profitable recipes of course. Even though, I was still running them even during the completely nerfed reward phase. Yet, at least now you do not feel like you are completely missing out on rewards if you do them instead of simpy joining the multiloot train like everyone else.

absolutely not, that is an awful idea. a rare drop is meant to be rare.

100% agreed. if they ever did that I would honestly probably stop playing.
