Ascended rings
I’d just like to be able to salvage them. Ideally 20ish of the common mats, with a chance for a rarer/higher quality mat.
That would be nice, maybe throw a chance for a mist essence in there too. Heck, back in the day I would have even taken pristine fractal relics.
And if I can really go out on a limb of wishful thinking, Offensive Ring + Defensive Ring (of same stats) + 2 other things = earring(offensive/defensive) or amulet(offensive/defensive/utility) of those stats.
4 silver and some change
That’d be great.
Too bad we can’t have nice things.
Same with pristine fractal relics.
Make them tradable.
I’m hoping the developers will reply as to whether or not they think having so many untouched ascended rings is a problem and whether they will do something about it.
They’re clogging up your inventory/bank space and thus serving their true purpose in the game.
I’ve done 74 fractals. 64 of those fractals were a mix of 10+ and 20+. I have never, I repeat NEVER gotten one ascended ring.i would love to get a ring. I ended up having to get my rings with laurels because they never drop for me. On the same note, my friend who does fractals with me ALWAYS gets an ascended ring at the end of our run. Sometimes he gets infused ones too. I guess I am just one unlucky ducky.
You are lucky, your inventory is free from all those craps because 99% of the rings you get will be utterly useless unless you have like 4-5 different builds.

Pristine Fractal Relics dude.

“30 fps is more cinematic”
Meh PvE problems.
Wish I had a bank full of ascended rings from WvW, but as it is I’ve never seen a single one from a rank-up chest in over 500 ranks.
The thing that really frustrates me is how readily you can get rings from fractals and what a total pain it is to get them any other way. I never have the time to dedicate to a fractal (I play a lot but with frequent interruption).
I wish they would make them tradeable.

Quick question. Are you using “Fractal Frequenter” as your counter? Because I’m pretty sure that counts each individual fractal as 1. (So going from Personal Reward level from 1 to 10 would be 35 fractals, to 20 would be 70. And that’s assuming you never do a higher even level). And also what is your personal reward level (as you can’t get a ring until you are 10+, and an infused ring until you are 20+)
If that isn’t the case and you mean 74 runs, ignore that. But then how many of those 64 runs were on even levels to fight Maw, and did you ever do 2 even runs on the same day (you only have a chance to get a ring 1/day).
I have about 200-250 on my Fractal Frequenter, maybe ~14-17 pristine relics (pretty sure I had to buy at least one of my MF rings back in the day), and I still have 6-8 ascended rings and a fractal weapon just sitting in my bank. But dang, if I was wrong about my interpretation you have some bad luck.

Well that’s why they were introduced into the laurel merchant/dailys for 35 laurels, or for 25 laurels and 250 badges of honor.

As someone who is swimming in Fractal rings and Pristine relics, it frustrates me that the only way to get Amulets is by doing dailies.
I don’t like doing dailies, at least you have an alternative through WvW or dailies to get the rings. To get my amulets, I have to do boring, repetitive content that is about as exciting to me as watching old people fart.

And if you’re not in a big guild, then hello pretty expensive accessories.
But also to counter your argument, they do at least give some value to laurels. Once you have your ascended trinkets, what do you do with them, either hoard them hoping for something better to come out, or try to make money selling mats/dye.

I don’t have the problem with the accessories, thanks to my guilds. But indeed, had I not been in a guild big enough for missions, I would struggle really hard to equip all my characters. Luckily I don’t really struggle, but honestly, they need to add alternatives for Amulets at least, because not having alternatives to attain certain BiS items is pretty bad design.

Yeah, I grabbed one MF one a while back with laurels, but never bothered with a second because I heard that they were changing the system, and with no knowledge I didn’t want to blow 50 ectos (3-6 days worth of world bosses) on something that may have become worthless.
Even more so now that luck and ascended crafting was a big drain on ectos, and with ascended armor looming in the next 2 months, yay. It’d be good if they were craftable (if jewlery came with ascended armor), but that’d mainly help with alts as you are going to spend ~80-120 ectos crating up to 500.
Who knows, maybe when the new fractals launch at the end of the year they will either,
1) give pristine fractal relics an additional use
2) let us salvage rings for something worthwhile
3) allow us to use the MF to convert rings into something worthwhile (ie the other ascended trinkets)

I’m averaging around 1 ascended ring every 2 FOTM runs ever since I hit level 20. I think he’s refering to his fractal frequenter.
