Man, if OP wants to make 21 characters with ascended gear and has that kind of time and motivation then good on them.
I really don’t like drop nerfs because I like loot and don’t get a lot of it as it is.. but if we step back bloodstone was kind of out-of-line with the rest of the ascended mats. There are still farms where you can get lots of it even if it is actually nerfed. As others have said, bloodstone is not the bottleneck, even at a reduced drop rate its still probably not going to be your bottleneck; its likely it will have no impact on you whatsoever.

Do my ears deceive me? Are people kittening that they nerfed bloodstone dust?
After threads and threads and threads about there being too much of it?

As I said when they nerfed karma into oblivion…. we reap what we sow…
If there was a change, then clearly it only affects players with 21 characters that need 51,000 bloodstone dust….
Dragonite Ore is what’s really going to screw him lol.
Ugh dragonite…. my bane.
Don’t look at me like that. Whatever you’ve heard, it’s probably not true.

This is proof that for every thread out there complaining about X, there are an equal but opposite number of people ready to complain when they change X to Y.
Yeah, but it wouldn’t be as funny if it weren’t some of the same people in both threads…

I’m fairly certain OP is not serious
Actually I’m dead serious.

1. Actually my 21 characters are split into 3 accounts of 7 each. So just as any normal person would have about 5-8 characters, my situation is absolutely normal to an average player.
Dragonites, you have a consistent way of farming it. Taking for example. I also need 51,000 dragonites (already got 12,000 over the last 2 months playing on and off, remaining 39,000).
With the 39,000 I need. Each day for each account. I can do 1 teq for 50 dragonites, shatterer for 20, golem for 20, karka queen for 30. That’s 120 dragonite ore per day. I also play simultaneous on two accounts at once on two different computers. So this speed up the process. You can see 13,000 / 120 is just slightly over 4 months left of work that I can get all the dragonites I need.
For emp fragments. I happen to also have a 4th account of 2 mesmers stationing on 5 different jumping puzzle. Each of the main account also have 1 mesmer stationing at 3 other jumping puzzle. Each jumping puzzle gives on average 7 emp frag. So
I get about 7 × 5 × 6 = 210 emp per day per account. And 17,000 / 210 is just slighlt over 80 days.
The bloodstones are the only ones that not many people do champ train to be able to obtain. Even an average person which has 7 characters will need about 17,000 bloodstones to get all their characters ascended will have a hard time getting all the bloodstone now if they haven’t hoarded them up before.
Dear god….
You, sir, have more dedication than I could have ever imagined.
The ultimate question, of course, that I imagine everyone is wondering is: why? Why spend each day doing what you just listed? Even if you decided to just have one of each class in Ascended armor, why exert all of this effort for the additional 13 characters? WHY!
I won’t stop because I can’t stop.
It’s a medical condition, they say its terminal….
