why are ascended gears tie to PvE contents only?

According to Chris Whiteside’s response to this question during yesterday’s Reddit MMA, they regret having introduced ascended gear to only one facet of the game. He said this was “a mistake” and that they will be adding access to this gear to other venues ASAP.

didnt they also sold us that GW2 will have not a gear grind during the initial release the game, I guess he must be speaking the truth. Oh wait…

Personally I don’t think it has grinding for gear. First off Legendaries are a luxury item they provide no benefit. So you don’t HAVE to grind for them. In fact you never have to ever have one. Ascended as they said will be opening up in other ways with more easily obtainable than just running a dungeon or at least that’s what they say.

I don’t understand why everyone says you HAVE to grind for a legendary. No you don’t. It’s not something required or needed. It’s a want and if you WANT it ya your going to have to put in some effort.

Some of these carebears are really pathetic.

Nooo! Not WvW! There might be someone there that might actually be able to fight me! I only want ridiculously easy to fight AI enemies who have the intelligence of a brick!

Actually it’s pathetic pvpers like you that repel many pvers from pvp (act like you’re over 12 and quit with the silly name calling -__-). The guy doesn’t want to pvp-so…kittening…what. It has no bearing on you or how you play the game whatsoever so there’s no need for this childish obnoxious attitude. Incidentally, similar minded pve gamer might describe you as being someone with severe confidence issues and needs virtual wins (that mean literally nothing in the big picture) to boost your self confidence. ‘I fail at life but look at me! I can press buttons on a keyboard better than you while having you at a disadvantage (gear/ganking) hurr hurr hurrr I am awesome and my life now has meaning’

@ OP I understand your feeling but try to look at it this way-legendary means…well absolutely nothing (you play the game a lot…I guess). It’s not the most powerful set of gear-rather simply a different skin of the most powerful set of gear so it’s something you can inch towards IF you want a different skin. By no means are you hampered (unless you’re one of those e-kitteners) by opting to not do pvp. Personally I think legendaries are more for the pvp crowd than the pve crowd because they tend to (as someone had mentioned) need aesthetically-pleasing pixels to feel awesome.

In closing, to those pvpers who say they shouldn’t have to pve as some sort of ‘counter-argument’…I suggest you look up the meaning of mmoRPG and remind yourselves exactly what the kitten a RPG is before you make such comments. If all you want to do is compete all day long then there are genres for that-fighting, fps, strategy…oh but wait you won’t have any advantage over your competitors would you?

When free speech ends, tyranny begins.

The beginning of wisdom is to call things by their proper name.

It turned into a grind when people wanted to be the first to get legend X. We humans can create races out of the strangest of activities. Me, i am quite happy just ignoring the whole thing. I just wish Anet would make it easier to track and organize weapon and armor skins. But then i suspect DCUO has spoiled me there…
