Guild Wars 2

ok before start im sorry for my “non native english”.

So, i dont want to talk about the ascended items, if you have to talk about it, there is a good tipo with 60 pages of replyes.

Now i think that infusion can be a good idea for the pve progression, but its not good add it on a set with better stats then the existing exotic gear.

Why don make something like 2 types of item?

infusion slotters: that can create an infusion slot on you existing gear (only ONE per item)
infusion upgrades: that can be used on a slotted item.

with this concept, if infusion work only for dungeons, no one will be harmed by the new update… the ones who have grinded for their exotics gear, are fine, and they can do what they wish to do, if you want to go on the new fractal dungeon, you have to upgrade you existing gear with the infusion.

But why even have infusion? It just gates content, why not just use the current gear and make the content harder in the deeper areas of the dungeon, why add something which makes it harder and then counter it with a defense therefore levelling it out again…

Adding special stats that exist for the sole reason of gating content is a stupid idea. And yes, I am familiar with the “lololol this doesn’t affect me at all, it only gates one dungeon, it happened in GW1, etc” responses to this. Those change nothing. It is still a stupid idea.
