Guild Wars 2

I have held onto my growing 65 Laurels and 30 Guild Commendations because i can’t really bring myself to buy any Ascended Jewelry.

I don’t like Fractals so i don’t need the agony res, but other than disliking Ascended items i want to be sure that i won’t need to use either Laurels or Guild Comms on the NEW Ascended Weapons and Armor which ‘might’ be more of a jump from Exotics to Ascended than the jewelry is.

Besides the latest blog post from Anet, do you guys know if they have said anything about using Laurels/Guild Comms to buy the new Ascended Weap/Armor, or will they be made ‘purely’ by crafting and i can safely use my currency on jewelry and won’t ever regret it. Or should i just wait and find out.

Thanks o/,

From the information we have been given I would say it’s safe but I can’t guarantee it.

I’d also think that it’s safe. The post made it sound like ascended weapons and armor would require some new type of time-gated crafting material. Besides, even if laurels are needed for the new gear, the new stuff likely won’t be out for a few months and in those months you will probably earn plenty more laurels and guild commendations.
