I saw an ascended gear chest posted in chat.
The very nature of RNG in ANY game is that you do not get to pick what drops for you, nor the stats of items that do drop. This has been true for every RPG (MMO or otherwise) for years.

Want a specific stat? Craft it. It’s easily obtainable (as a long-term goal), provided that you play the game and not AFK in DR. There’s nothing stopping you from playing the game in the cheap full exotics before you do.
But while you’re playing, you can also be blessed by RNG and get at least some nice ascended skin, even one for the collection if it’s a piece of armour.
And once you start playing non-1111-spam PvE but challenging group content like Fractals 49-50, you will be able to gradually equip your alts in almost full Zojja’s armor, plus extra Celestial for ele, and some tanky WvW gear for guardians – like I did.
Yep, I got about 3 of them in my chest. Useless stats so useless drops
Just another great feature of this game’s horrible rng. Really this is the worst I have ever seen in any game.
