Guild Wars 2

What’s going to happen to the magic find gear when Anet changes the magic find system to an account feature that uses consumables?
I have a Jewel of Ahdashim that I bought specifically for the +10% MF bonus and it’s other stats aren’t particularly any good. If they just drop the stat and don’t increase anything on the items a lot of people are going to be holding useless items, including ascended items.

We don’t know the details yet. We know only that they are going to try and make the transition as less damaging as possible for people that posses MF gear.

Achievement system and food. A good decision by ArenaNet.

I know it hasn’t happened yet. I can see this as a potential problem. What if they give me a stat I don’t want? or like you said, no stat replacement?

My opinion on MF is pretty simple. Either leave it alone or remove it completely. These half measures just wind up being confusing and frustrating. If It’s done away with then allow us to change the MF stat on gear to something else from a set of choices.

Like other changes in this game, the fix is often worse than the problem.

There’s nothing to be confused about MF. You just don’t know what will happen and how they will go about it. Of course that doesn’t stop you from saying that the fix is often worse than the problem, lol

I did say I know it hasn’t happened yet.

They’ve had other fixes to other problems that were confusing and frustrating. Their botting fixes, bug fixes, and DR implementation come to mind.

You should try reading and comprehending what was written before commenting on it.

I see no glaring issue with their bug fixes (lol?), botting fixes and DR. In fact, I’ve been playing since launch and I’ve never hit the DR. But even if they had glaring issues, what’s your proposition then? Arenanet didn’t properly fix botting so they shouldn’t change anything ever because they are unable to do so?

Since we’re talking about reading comprehension, here’s your quote:
“Either leave it alone or remove it completely. These half measures…(snip)”
What half measures? Please elaborate

Actually you know what, who the hell cares. I just wanted to asnwer OP.
