Guild Wars 2

Doing the metas in hot every day mostly for legendary armor crafting i found myself deleting stacks upon stacks of ley line sparks, piles of auric dust and air ship oil.

We get way to many of them and there is no use for them in game other than a few guild upgrades and even those require few.

So here is my ideea… why not add a vendor that would trade those mats for map curency. A simple conversion vendor. Should not be that hard to be created. That way we would not feel bad for deleting them because of the lack of space and we would not need to stock them on mule characters.

Or let them be sold to vendors for a nominal amount of copper.

Put this in the Suggestion sticky so the devs can refer to it. Something you get as a “reward” but is useless isn’t really a reward. Even “junk” has a value either as salvage or in $.

I would have loved it if the old bloodstone/empyreal/dragonite had been implemented as a currency rather than a stacking material. It should be the same with airship oil and its ilk. let it stack indefinitely, then you can add uses for it as and if required, and not get players raging because they’ve deleted 40 stacks of the stuff and they want it back.

Easiest solution. +1

Granted, I’d love to be able to turn those materials in for the regional currency. Leyline sparks into crystals, etc.

Or, and I’d love this too, convert a 250 stack of each + some spirit shard material into the Forge and get 10-20 Crystalline Ore. C-ore has a frustratingly bad rate of acquisition and it’d be fantastic to have a secondary method for all the ore that’s needed for runes/legendaries/etc.

Same idea, 10 days old, some recommendations and arguments in that thread in case people don’t feel like reposting the same stuff over and over.
