Guild Wars 2

Regarding the changes upcoming where all of a characters stats will be coming from equipment, it is leaving people who have made ascended stuff out in the dust. Anet stated that there would be no gear treadmill yet released an expensive tier above exotic. OK, whats done is done.

In my case, I have an exuberance warrior who is 80% ascended. I have stopped crafting the rest of his gear because I know his gear will need to be changed.

I don’t mind change however can the players get some consideration in terms of cost to re-gear. Exotic prices aren’t to bad but still could be a problem for some players. Some sigils and runesets are really expensive so if you socketed them in WvW gear or miss the return on salvage they are gone.

My biggest concern is the cost of ascended gear. I’m sure others will post “well you don’t need it, etc.” But the fact is it is the best gear giving around a 10% advantage. The players need to be able to salvage ascended gear for chance back at ascended mats, sigil/rune return, chance of globs. Also how about 4 ascended things into the forge for 1 ascended thing?

So much time (laurels and time gating), mats, and gold go into this ascended stuff.

No one cares. :/ Name of specializations is more important.
