Make Ascended stats unlockable like Wardrobe
So, you’re getting an inch and you want the mile? This system has already been in the game with unlimited use harvesting tools. They aren’t going to make ascended stats available across characters just because it is so HARD to unequip and bank them.

Never said it was hard, but it is very unpractical and how is this ‘stretching for the mile’?
My solution is not only a much more convenient system, but will not provide any advantages to the system that will arrive on the 15th other than being more convenient.
If you have an ascended zojja heavy helmet, you can just bank it and trade it around characters as you like. This is technically an unlimited zojja heavy helmet stat, just a very unpractical and messy method. Rather than trading the helmet around where it’s needed, you unlock the stat and can distribute it to any heavy helmet. Same idea, easier execution.

Its a phrase. Given an inch, and taking a mile. Its the exact same thing as the permanent banking golem, the permanent stylist kit, the unlimited harvesting tools, the endless tonics, and miniatures. It would be WAY easier to make it so you can access everything from anywhere on every single character at any time, but that doesn’t mean its going to happen. They are making it so it is even possible to trade around those things that were so hard to make, and you want to go even further, making it so you don’t even need the item for each character. You want it that you make the armor ONCE, and can get it on your guardian, your warrior, your other guardian, and three other warriors, all on different items with their own skins. Getting an inch, and taking a mile.

When Ascended items are in question even 1000 miles are not enough.

The money & time investment to acquire ascended gear is substantial enough to disallow automatically getting dups. You’re asking for free gear. Skins sure, that’s just cosmetic. But you want free ascended gear for alts. That’s a pretty heavy request.

Totally agree. You don’t need Ascended gear in anything other than Fractals.
If one wants ascended gear, put the work into get it. Others have and you would be diluting the work they did to make the gear.

Noone cares. Ive grinded so many obsolete gear in MMOs that if youre not used to this by now you should probably not play MMOs.
Ascended will be account bound. It seems you dont keep up with the news.

They should just making a recipe were throwing an armor in the mystic forge with the ascended inscription/insigna of another stat, lets you choose between the 2 stats like legendary (but only with stats unlocked).
You would save 50% grind at least
@MikaHR when we bought the game it said we wouldn t have vertical progression, meaning that you are playing the wrong game and not us.
GW2 balance:
A PvE player is supposed to avoid a 1-2 second 1 shotting aoe.
A WWW player is considered uncapable of avoiding a 5,75 second aoe for half his health.

I was aware that it was a phrase, like giving a finger and them taking the whole hand. But you keep insisting that my idea somehow is more advantageous to the current system arriving the 15th other than convenience. Keep in mind that this system that is arriving is more of a ‘forgive us for messing up all your work on some of the stat combinations that we will be messing up on the 15th, so as a band-aid, we’ll make ascended armor account bound’.
Surely you haven’t forgotten that some of the stats players have put so much work into getting, will be ridiculous nerfed, some more than others (rip Celestial). So this system is more of a crowd control rather than going through the process of having thousand of players screaming “REFUNDS FOR OUR USELESS STATS!”.
This system is happening and is a nice band-aid, but keep in mind that this kind of thing is the LEAST they can do after messing up the work and time for so many players in the first place. So it’s hardly “stretching for the mile”, but to just make the unpractical and very messy solution they’ve come up with for the 15th, to be a much more convenient and cleaner system.

You can bank the armor and put it on any other character you want. You can do this as many times as you like and have ascended stat on all your chars of that class whenever you want by just changing the armor around. How is that system any different from being able to apply the stat to an armor piece after it has been unlocked?
Just editing in that you would still have to be level 80, in case that wasn’t clear in this discussion. So you can’t apply your level 80 ascended stats on your level 1 alt obviously.

Uh oh, and yet we have Ascended items. Read my sig. Yes, thats how it should have been.

AH – you do, it is called crafted Exotics. That is all I use and I am very competitive. GW2 (and GW1 for that matter) is how well you play not how well you grind and gear up (others game do that WoW, RIFT, TERA – play them if you want that advantage). If you want the ‘leetness’ of Ascended or Legendary, then grind for them like the players who already had them put the work in for them and all you are doing is getting something for nothing…..
no, don’t unlock the stats.
What they need is an across the account slots (not bank).
Something in the hero panel. 1 free slot for everyone(more could be bought through gems).
And anything you place there will be in all of your hero panels. it would be perfect for say the airship tickets, a mini, tonics etc.
Making things account bound is a little annoying without an easier(quicker/cheaper -because of wp to bank) way.
Why is there not an account slot? I’d love to have my mini with me on all my characters without having to stop at the bank/crafting table to get it out, and remember to put it away when I switch character.
Same could be for sharing weapons. account bound, without the option of an “account slot” is just annoying. and many people won’t bother constantly switching them around.

While I wouldn’t mind this kind of system and this would solve so many unpractical items having to be moved around. This kind of idea has been around since the ages of time for Guild Wars 2 and we still haven’t seen any kind of hint of ever getting this. So you shouldn’t really hold your breath for this.

A lot of people have been telling ANet for over a year now that Ascended items were a mistake altogether.
