Guild Wars 2

Hey everyone,

We all know that you can not have the same two Ascended Trinkets equipped at the same time, but what about Ascended Weapons? Will a Warrior be able to dual wield the same stat Ascended Sword? Or will we have to re-work our builds to accommodate two different stats for our swords? Thanks in advance for any responses.

kitten , I hope not. I have two axes ;-;

Maybe we should look at ascended trinkets and how them being unique affects us… There’s multiple different items with the exact same stats. Them being unique doesn’t mean we have to accomodate different stat combinations what makes you think it’ll be different when the weapons are released?

Well, I don’t think they’ll be unique considering all legendaries will be recieving an offensive infusion slot and many people dual world the same legendaries.

With the fact that Legendaries will be getting the stat boost plus the Offensive Infusion slot only, made me wonder if the other weapons will have the same Offensive Infusion only. That is the way you can have two Trinkets with the same Stats, because of the different Infusion Slots. So, if they actually name all of the Ascended Weapons like they have done the Ascended Trinkets, will you be able to dual wield the same sword?

So no other opinions about this?

If I had to guess I would say that ascended weapons probably WILL be unique, but legendary weapons will NOT. This will further distinguish legendary weapons from ascended gear and will help diversify the crafting of both offensive and defensive ascended weapons. This of course is purely speculation based on their past decisions.

May be it will be like rings / earrings where there a def and an attk version?
I hope they at least have flavor text you could make up some fun story why your hero has this or that weapon. I want the dagger of the forbidden god for my ele (trying to make it out that he use to be from that god but became a savir not sure if that works).

unique is such a useless feature

Unique trinkets are unique mostly because they represent very unique artifacts (I think there are even blue to orange trinkets that are unique too, not sure right now).

I think when we finally have Jewelry 500 those won’t be unique (though it’s possible that they’re limited to a type of infusion).
