Guild Wars 2

Dear all,

As many would know, there is an infusion slot in ascended equipment. (offensive, defensive and utility)

As far as I can tell, the max. (combat related) bonus one can apply there is +4.
Am I missing something, or is that really the best that can be applied?

Also, if I infuse the equipment with these said attributes, can I later infuse it with agony resistance?

Yes, it will replace that infusion though. Replacing infusions is exactly the same as replacing runes and sigils.

Actually, there are +5 bonus infusions which come with AR but they require a staggering amount of materials that make them not worth your while to make. If anything, just get the versatile simple infusions and leave it at that. The stat bonuses are so small as to be meaningless.

Extreme waste of player resources. I think they are the Devs personal side-joke (just to see how far a min-maxer mentality player would go).

The answer is, a true min/max have no limits.

If you plan to do high level fractals then get some agony infusions is nice, otherwise I recommend getting the infusions from the WvW NPC, there you find “cheap” +5 stats infusions with +1% damage to guards or -1% damage from guards.

Thank you everyone.

I agree the the slot is very useful for AR in Fractals, but otherwise the bonus is very small considering the price….but if you’ve geared up all your toons and have nothing else to spend your laurels on, then go for it.
