Guild Wars 2

At the moment there are no Knight’s / Emerald stated (Power/Prec/Tough(highest)) and Cleric’s / Sapphire (Power/Tough/Healing(highest)) stated ascended items available in the game. I’m not sure about others but why are these missing?

The closest thing is (Power/Crit damage/Tough(highest)) and there isn’t even a healing stat on ANY of the ascended items.

I believe this will really hurt some builds out there that rely on high toughness with a good critical chance to get synergy from traits and sigils and those who were using Cleric gear.

Are the addition of ascended item options not finished or is this intended? Would love an official Anet response. Thanks.

Both.

Ascended items are unique and fixed, so what they give you is what you get. If every option was intended, they would be more like exotics. This is the downside of ascended items and why a full set is not always better.

The current ascended items are only a portion of what will be available. More will be added over time.

Agreed if it must be here I hope it stays with very limited stat combinations.
