Guild Wars 2

Having spent the last week mucking about with the new stuff, I’ve now gone back to what i was mainly doing before – aiming to craft ascended Armor and Weapons.

Except now I’ve completely lost interest. FULGRITE!? what is this bullkitten?

You honestly expect me to grind 75 of these things for each armor piece? Are you kittening mental?

I’m not much of a PvE player tbf, but finding ways to grind karma for obsidian shards was a side-game i was willing to play. Now we’re expected to farm Airship Oil, Auric bullkitten and Ley Line kitteny for the same kitten people have been crafting for 2 years. -.-

There better be some way to earn this joke tat in WvW or PvP.

More hurdles to jump and hoops to kitten about with until I’m on the same power level as everyone else. Ty ANET, you’ve pulled a solid on this one GG.

Exotic 4 Life, shove that pink gear up your kitten , what a crock of kittene.

Isn’t that only for the new stat combinations? Unless you want the concentration or expertise stat, you can just mix and match other pieces of armor to get the stats, like mixing zerk and valk to get Marauders for example.

But I agree, there’s no real reason to have additional mats in the crafting pieces itself. Why not just incorporate it into the insignias?

Can this be bypassed by creating a 3-stat piece and throwing it the forge with an exotic insignia?

I got a minstrel exotic insignia from a story mission and made an ascended coat with minstrel stats from it by throwing it in the forge with an unwanted coat from an armor box and the other stuff needed to change stats on asc gear, it worked.

Thanks for the info.

I wonder if that is intended behaviour then, seems a much easier method to obtain the new stat sets than crafting from scratch with the Jeweled Damask Patches?
