Guild Wars 2

With the recent nerfs to how bosses drop silver and now karma consumables not benefiting from boosters/other things, that has severely nerfed 2 of the 4 current amulet infusions. Soon MF wont even exist so that will take out another infusion one that I use personally making 3/4 of the infusions very bad or perhaps even worthless. This wouldn’t be as big of an issue if these infusions did not cost 20 laurels to purchase but they do. Anet what are your plans regarding these infusions, I and several others are wondering if it is even worth it to purchase these as there is always the possibility of them being nerfed even further…

….and the possibility of them being buffed

They’ll release this info at the same time as they detail when/what the changes to MF will be.

4/4 will soon be worthless.

The +20% xp infusion is already pretty darn useless as it is anyways. Levels come way to easy once you hit 80 to worry about another +20% xp.

How are they failures? They are all still working as intended. +Gold, +Karma, etc. Just because they aren’t working as you want them to, doesn’t mean the whole system ceased to provide the applied bonuses. We had this same conversation when CoF runners complained about their +Gold infusions with the Dungeon change. Only the Magic Find one is the one that will be changed, and they did say they’re looking at different options on how to treat current MF gear when the change hits.

So far all they have been doing is indirectly nerfing them, I doubt they would buff them.

infusions were probably designed for fractals and AR, with some goodies tossed in for the open world pve crowd. They are not failures, but still serve their original purpose imo.
