So I crafted an exotic pearl quarterstaff for my human female Mesmer… Boy does it looks like crap. Seriously everything else I ever crafted while leveling her looked better and now that she is 80 I couldn’t wait to see her with an exotic staff. Come to find out the old tree branch style staves were even better.
Anyway, please help! I need ideas, pics, names of karma vendors, or anything that would look better than this sea shell on a stick I have now. I absolutely love the Nightmare staff since I am black/purple dyes and it really matches my theme, however it doesn’t have a power/prec/crit dmg variant.
So please share pics of your staves! Thanks.

You’re supposed to get a beautiful item with bad stats, and a ugly item with good stats, then transmute. ANet goes a bit too far with gold sink.

I’ll upload some for you in a bit.

Here’s some pictures.
What I did: open trading post, select “weapons”, “staff” level 80-80. Sorted price by most expensive. Figured the most expensive ones would be the best looking ones.

Then I put the name of each staff here: www.gw2spidy.com/search/
Clicked the staff I wanted. Clicked “ingame” and pasted the code in game chat (I made a guild just for pasting codes), right-clicked, previewed.

Hey that’s a nice work around the TP and their lack of a preview function. I see that golden winged one a lot. I really feel like there is a lack of good looking staves in this game. If I were a necro I’d be all over that scyth, but for a Mesmer I dunno.

Peacemaker? You can get it by getting enough tokens from Crucible of Eternity dungeon.

So I decided I’m just going to grind another 30k karma for that peacemaker asura t3. I have all my exotics anyway, they just kinda look boring.. Even the crafted exotic armor.

My new question; with me in full exotic gear would it be faster/easier to grind the dungeon tokens for Nightmare weapon skins or Open world grind karma for T3 skins? At the same time I need to be making gold also for my T3 armor skin I eventually want. Which path is best for a geared player? I am not too sure how much gold is made in dungeons as most of my experience has been Orr.
