Guild Wars 2

Can we PLEASE make mawdrey/princess (and release star of gratitude again as I was in the hospital when it came out) eat WAY more a day, or give an option like the karmic converter to either eat small amounts or whole stacks…and limiting to 3-6 a day is ridiculous.

I’m not sure where this goes, but I cannot find the suggestion portion. Please move this as necessary.

Thanks for moving it, I couldn’t find it, but here it is. It likely won’t get any attention but I don’t want to throw out hundreds of stacks of these items if I may need them some day or they could be worth more than 3 gunk covered pellets…

star will probably be able to be got again this wintersday (3 more months)
as for the others, I agree. a lot of the time I collect more of these than I can consume with the eaters.

You can consome 1 stack each/day. I agree it takes time until you convert all stacks after you gained the converters.

But how on earth are you generating each day more than 1 stack??? Even during 4h SW chest farm or 5h world bosses I only get close to 250/day.

I’m surprised you’re able to collect a stack of dust/ore in a day! I rarely get that much, even when playing SW for 3-4 hours at the weekends.

I’m still using mine to make Asc Weapons though.

I convert what I need for Ascended weapons (5 of each of the bricks etc.) then destroy the rest keeping only what would allow me to eat each day the max. If you’re over flowing just destroy the surplus (or keep it maybe more uses later but I don’t think there will be personally).

Not entirely true. As OP said they consume 3-6 stacks of 50 per day. Not a whole stack. I’ve had days where they may only consume 3 or 4 stacks of 50 a few days in a row.

Running in the SW you can get way more than one full stack of 250 in a few hours a day. If you hit a chest farm, you can get a full stack of Dragonite Ore and Bloodstone Dust in no time.

Honestly, I don’t think that they should/want to balance things on the basis on multiple hours of chest runs each day.

I realize many people don’t, but I’ve walked away from a day of play with 2k-3k of each dragonite and bloodstone.

I don’t expect the eater to be able to eat all of it, they don’t want people to feel like they have to farm more to get their daily gunk pellets, so I understand its likely balanced around more average players.
But it would be really nice to see even a small increase, give it a 5-10 or maybe 6-10 range.

I am really wondering if we will need vision crystal(S) for legendary armor… (and/or trinkets)

With the introduction of electrum (probably from jeweler) Legendary or Ascended trinkets will be available as well I hope…. probably also requiring lesser vision crystals for rings/ trinkets and probably a big one for the amulet… I’m trying to rebuild my supplies at the moment after making ascneded weapons for my 13 most used characters really made a dent in my supplies 0.0

Effectively princess never gets fed, mawdrey gets some food now and then en the star only gets occasional food…

Just 1 more month (give or take a week)… and we’ll know

I have a special ascended mat consumer its called “the ground” it eats everything i give it and never complains, it never returns my favor or rewards me with anything, but it helps clear up my inventory,bank, and mule space!

On a serious note it should be painfully obvious for people who play long hours a day that 1 stack is not enough. I and several others I know have thousands and thousands of ascended mats that we will never use but Anet has taught us to hoard because remember “Silk”.

The obvious solution is to make a mastery track that you can level up your mastery “usage” of these items that enables you to feed it more per day.

Sry I didn’t want to sound like I wouldn’t believe that someone gains more than a stack/per day.
Like I wrote I get around 1 stack after 4h sw cf, I know that I usually have around 1 stack after a full worldboss rotation. Even after ~2h doing the half of all available dunogens I end up maximum 1 stack.
I’m really curious how you get more like 2k+/day (and what time it took^^)?

I picked up about 1500 dragonite, about 600 empyreal fragments, and 800 bloodstone dust after running through the SW chest farm 3 or 4 times a couple days ago. Which took maybe an hour and a half.

I have 75 of each brick and a stock of 1500 in my mats storage… its not hard depending on what you do to amass 1-2k of the bloodstone/dragonite dust… I think an increase to how much it eats is in order, even if they have to reduce drop rates to even it out. I throw away 1-2k of that stuff a day cuz i just cant store it anymore. I also have a few mule toons with a few 18 slot bags storing some… its ridiculous. I’m for this!

I’ve thrown out thousands in Bloodstone dust. (I’ve only recently gotten a Mawdrey II) But it does seem like we’re getting less dust today then we used to get a year or so ago. You should be caught up in a week or so.

A lot of this came through natural game play, well before there was even a mawdrey. I have extra character slots that I dont really play anymore that are full of 100 stacks of any given ascended material. But why should I have to wait 3 more months for star of gratitude when people who missed either release of mawdrey or princess can readily go do that and get it. And I’ve refined it all, due to excessive obsidian shards lately, and i mean thousands, I’ve sold 3 stacks of clovers to the vendors now. I can make more vision crystals than I’ll ever use. I’m at the point where with those and ascended rings, I have no inventory space, anywhere. If I want to play a certain class, I have to figure out where to move 100 stacks of this stuff. Because if I don’t, and I delete it, it’ll become far more valuable. That’s just the law of bad rngesus…

And as far as silverwastes and chest runs. I stopped doing those a while ago when I opened 600 champ bags and got 4 rares and no exotics. Since I’m done with ambrite, no use to go back there either. There’s no incentive fort his stuff..
