Armor currently can give up to 30 (5 × 6) Weapons can give 10 (5 × 2) while the trinkets can give 30 uninfused (5 × 6) or 30 + x (x=the sum of up to 3 infusion slots filled with up to +17 agony infusions for a max of 51 resist).
You only NEED 70 Agony resist to play the highest level currently unlocked (50).
It depends on how you look at things and what you like to do.
I tell people to save all the + 1 agony resistance they get. You will need 504 of them to make a + 10 agony resistance ( combining them together through crafting )
If you still are keen for fractals when you reach lvl 40 + then you can throw your + 10 into on of your slot’s or you could sell it for gold if you wish.

2 things on this, 1 it’s 512 infusions… >.< but the main thing being that it currently costs more to make the +10 than it is to sell/buy it. (63.8064g vs 59.9975g atm of typing this)(plus you lose 10% of all gold when selling on the tp so you get 53.9976g after tax)
just buy it from store in fractals, they give you 5 AR….. Double click the infusion and click on the ascended piece…..and……done.
If you want to get further into it, here is a website showing you how much AR you need for each level, if you have 2 ascended pieces you should be fine until lvl 20…6 ascended pieces and fine until lvl 30.

oops 512 =)
Are you sure it’s only a 4g differance though? That’s hard to believe since when your making it yourself, your only buying the merging thingy of the merchant.
I’m going to copy my post from another thread concerning Agony Infusions:
There are four type of infusion slots: defensive, offensive, utility and agony infusion slots.
Armor have defensive infusion slots.
Weapons have offensive infusion slots.
Backpieces have a offensive infusion slot or defensive infusion slot depending on which one you get.
Amulets have a utility infusion slot, a offensive infusion slot, or a defensive infusion slot depending on which one you get.
For rings, there is one with a defensive infusion slot and one with an offensive infusion slot per stat type.
For accessories, there is one with a defensive infusion slot and one with an offensive infusion slot per stat type.
Backpieces and rings can be infused which give it an agony infusion slot in addition to the offensive/defensive slot they had before.
Offensive infusion slots can take omni infusions or offensive infusions.
Defensive infusion slots can take omni infusions or defensive infusions.
Utility infusion slots can take omni infusions or utility infusions.
Agony infusion slots can take agony infusions.
Omni infusions consist of the +5 Versatile Simple (75 fractals) and the +5 stat infusions with AR called Versatile [stat type] (Mystic Forge recipes).
Offensive infusions consist of Mighty, Malign, or Precise Infusions.
Defensive infusions consist of Healing, Resilient, and Vital Infusions.
Utility infusions consist of Gilded (20% gold from kills), Magical (20% MF), Experienced (20% XP from kills), and Karmic (15% karma).
Agony infusions are the +1s that drop from each fractal boss chest that can be combined with an Artificer into the increasing AR levels.

If you consider the infusions to be of zero value yes it’s more than 4g but since you can just sell them on the trading post for coin, they are the same as coin so you have to compare crafting it value wise vs buying a crafted one.

While your economics are correct, i think what Sarah was originally suggesting was for the Fractal enthusiast to save their looted infusions, not purchase them, and then craft a +10 once they’ve acquired the necessary amount, the cost of it then being only the reagents (~8g).
with full armour, weapons, and amulets/rings/trinkets, only using Versatile Simple Infusions and +5’s, you’ll end up with 85 AR (80 underwater, your helmet doesn’t count because of the kittening Air Breathers). level 50 fractals only require 70, so crafting above a +5 is purely optional (for now, supposedly HoT is raising the cap).
personally, id suggest only making higher numbers for backpieces. ascended gear is account bound so you can throw it around for toons that may be lacking
).
