Hi, I’ve recently obtained Ascended trinkets, rings, amulet and a backpiece for my main, however, for the rings and backpacks, I’ve been wondering if it was worthwhile to get the fine infusions, or just the +5AR infusion for 75 tokens?

I’m asking because it seems FotM will get a rework before the end of the year(new blog post by Anet for source), and new Ascended gear will be added(possibly higher tiers of infusions, such as masterwork, rare, exotic, etc….).

So I was wondering if I should hold onto the mats to make these infusions and wait for the new gear to come out before making a decision? I’m currently only using the default +5AR infusion in all slots.

Those stat gains are really marginal.

Imo the +5 stats are not worth the investment. Save the mats for your legendary instead

Your logic is incredibly flawed, it’s not worth a statistical upgrade, but worth a tiny portion of a cosmetic sidegrade? Gotcha.

Go for the +5 AR for 75 Relics.

Depends on how much you run fractals. If you don’t plan to go into the higher levels, then it really isn’t going to pay to be decked out in AR infusions.

Keep in mind that what you are talking about is “end game” gear. It is very expensive to get a fine infusion like 5 power/5 AR for example requires 100 powerful bloods plus other stuff which is quite pricey and that’s just one infusion.

I would say it would depend on where you are in the game. If you don’t have much gold, buy the 75 token infusion and maybe save up for later for the fine infusion. If you have a bunch of gold laying around and nothing to spend it on, go for the fine infusion now.

One thing to keep in mind is, you can infuse items with +5AR and then add the fine infusion for a total of +10 per item. You have to do the AR infusion first making the item naturally infused before adding the fine infusion or it will be destroyed.

Well, it will be quite worth it when legendary update arrives; you know, changing stats whenever you’re out of combat .

What Neko said.

the other +5 stats aren’t worth it for the cost.

I think it’s worth it for the marginal stat increase. But I’m a loony min/maxer.

Yep, soon to be ascended level stats as well as interchangeable when out of combat. Much more worth that +5 stats. Plus looking awesome-sauce
