Guild Wars 2

I brought this game around Christmas last year and just now reaching the point that I can almost craft a full set of Ascended on character. I just don’t have the time to mad farm for materials. This is why I like to know if the Raids and Maguum Jungle will be tuned around needing a full set of Ascended to even do anything in. It worries me that Beta characters are given full ascended to try out different stat combos. As if the devs expect everyone by now to be decked to the gear with Ascendeds.

If there an answer please post below… It would really help my nerves if I don’t have to mad grind for Ascended that will end up dropping anyway from Raids. Than I can just focus my nerves on getting my first legendary.

Unless they’re doing something different for BWE3, beta characters won’t be given ascended gear to wear. You get boxes of exotic gear (with choosable stats). As for whether or not raids will require them, they haven’t said. I don’t think it’s too likely, personally. However, the boost in stats (however small) might be needed. We just don’t know yet.
