Q:
Asc medium armor recommendation
A:
I have been having similar questions.
Someone gave some helpful advice. At least I find it helpful.
Because damask is so costly, stick to acquiring ascended trinkets and weapons.
Use exotic armor instead.
And the way I change builds around, replacing runes in ascended armor already gets expensive. With exotic I can just salvage, recover runes (and other mats) and make a new set.
Thanks. I was interested in trying out pew pew ranger in WvW, but yeah it’s an expensive try, and I don’t use my medium armored characters in fractals that much. I guess I’ll go with exotics with troll builds lol.
My pew pew ranger:
Full ascended zerk gear + weps
Exotic valk trinkets due to trait that gives power based on vitality.
The infusions on the ascended stuff is nice to have and I can confirm that many salty orphan tears are shed when I press that #2 LB rapid fire button. It especially melts squishy classes.
Basically; If you’re doing fine in exotics and love it then by all means go for asc version of it, plus zerker is usually used both in PvE and WvW anyway.
Each to their own though.
