Guild Wars 2

I posted this on the wrong forum I think, so I removed it, and reposting here.

Do I really need all of this?

(And yup, I have that many level 80s)

Oh dear. I’ve only done the current LS on one alt … I have 11 more 80’s, am I going to drown in those things like you are?

Sooo…destroy those you don’t want?

here’s your solution to this overstocked issue:
step 1: make one backpiece
step 2: toss everything else
step 3: NEVER do ep3p1 ever again

problem solved

Depends on how many backpieces you are planning to make. If you are going to make one for each, save. If not then delete.

Mysterious seed, Ley Line Infused Stone, Glacial Water & Phantasmal Residue: Delete.
Meaty Plant Food, Piquant Plant Food, Clay Pot: Sell.

All of these are only used to make the Mysterious Vine backpack, which I see you’ve already got. Since the Wardrobe enables you to use the skin as many times as you want on as many characters as you want there’s no reason to make more than 1 of them, unless you really want multiple exotic nomad’s backpacks (which I think is unlikely, it’s not a very useful stat combination).

The Foxfire Clusters you could sell, but it might be a good idea to keep them because we don’t know if they’ll have a new use after the next update.

You’ve also got a pile of Found Heirlooms in there, which haven’t had any use since the Battle for LA ended back in March. Sell them to a merchant if you can, if not delete them.

You’ve also got what looks like 2 piles of Powerful Potions of Slaying Scarlet’s Armies which could be combined into one stack and a huge number of Masters Salvage Kits, using them up would give you a lot of space. And a blue shoulder pad which probably has no use beyond being sold or salvaged, or given to an alt.

All together that would free up 54 spaces, assuming you keep 1 salvage kit (or use it and then buy a replacement).

Yeah largely depends if you want it on all characters and with the stats it comes with (if you cannot choose the actual stats) do remember this is an ascended back piece! so if you don’t have access to those on other characters, and you can pick the stats you like on it… then you obviously need all of them, and you can just apply another skin to this ascended back piece if you don’t want the vines on it…

Else 1 is enough, because the skin will be unlocked account wide, and you can just apply it to any character’s back piece you want…

Are you sure it’s ascended? I haven’t made one yet because I’ve been waiting for the prices on the craftable parts to drop but the wiki says it’s exotic, and only available with Nomad’s stats.

Even if it is ascended an exotic back piece with useful stats is better than an ascended one with stats you’re not going to use.

Dulfy said it will progress, but not how.

Mysterious Vine Backpiece
This is the only the first iteration of the backpiece. You will be able to build on it with The Dragon’s Reach Pt2 update, whenever that arrives.

It may be only a cosmetic progression to different looks or it may be to a final ascended backpiece. At that points, it’s another question about the stats, whether they will be nomad or the ability to pick what you want, one time. If it is a final ascended backpiece that you can chose the stats for, then it’s well worth having all those ingredients. But no one knows at this time.

I’m pretty sure you can stack those items. I know that I “infused” all the items across my alts and stacked them up in my bank. (I only intend on crafting one for now, but I’m keeping the items in case they turn out to be a much easier/cheaper way of getting Ascended backpieces.)
