This isn’t a complaint but rather a suggestion.
I think Anet should separate each ascended gear into a different aspect of the game.
Rings and Back piece being in Fractal
Earrings from Spvp or WvW
Amulets from crafting

Thoughts?

Well, since ascended gear is now mandatory for progression in fractals, there’s really no getting around that it should all drop in fractals.

Though I’d have nothing against the alternative methods being spread out in such a way.

No. I don’t want to be ‘forced’ into doing an area of the game I don’t like (e.g. sPvP/WvW) in order to equip my characters with the highest possible gear available. It’s good that they made them available for laurel tokens, so that people that dislike fractal can still get ascended rings.

True. I don’t want to be forced to do fractal or FTOM or whatever. I only play WvW. I should be able to access those gears in some other alternative ways.

They’re supposedly going to progressively add more ways to get Ascended gear over time.

They’ll probably release an update just before the universe ends that lets you craft them and get them from WvW.

People who do NOT play Fractals do not need Infusion slot gear for anything.

You’ve not looked at the utility infusions have you?

Yes, brilliant.
Let’s reward PvP players with PvE gear.
Ascended gear is already made with crafting.

They are BiS for ALL content not just flavour of the month (FoTM) the stats are better than all current gear. sigh

You rocking it out with lots of PvE gear in S/Tpvp?
Ever felt like you got your face smashed in so hard a black hole negativity was created of what was left due to havíng 18 less of stat X then the evil now ULTRA COOL and EPIC terminator guy among the other 20 in the zerg you just went Ramboo jumped down into instead of spamming aoe down on them from the keep walls?

Maybe it has now become so hard to do any regular PvE content due to the fact that it is now JUST easier to get this gear then it was before and due to them add more flavour to the different stats on them but still only made it easier to get these items that have been in the game for a while.

Maybe you cannot show yourself in public without these items nobody will ever know or notice that you have (unless you actually GASP play higher level fractals) due to the enoroums amount of shame you feel when people does not see these not visible items on your character.

OH MY IMAGINARY-CREATOR-IN-THE-SKIES you totally opened my eyes as to why these are mandatory, I apologize from the bottom of my heart for even implying that they are infact NOT needed unless you need infusion slots for you agony resistance. I am so very sorrry…
