Guild Wars 2

One-part speculation, one-part hope that we can get an answer from ANet. I have 71 laurels that are just sitting there, could use a bit more motivation to do dailies. I want to use them to buy ascended weapons, even with a cost like 60 laurels + some ascended items you don’t need to craft for. I have the money to craft ascended weapons, but I have no interest in leveling from 100 -> 500, which is what my weaponsmithing is at. It just wouldn’t be fun for me. (and hey, money)

Is it policy that having many ways to play and progress ends at ascended items, but more extreme with weapons/armor? Meaning it is a design choice to have it so that crafting and gold are more important than they were for trinkets.

I doubt they would make laurels a way to get ascended weapons and if they did it would likely be an insanely high price + ecto
