Guild Wars 2

So you get an accesory called “Forgotten Seal” when you beat EP 8. I won’t take a jewel, you can’t salvage it, and it doesn’t show up in the MF, is this really just vendor trash?

I also find it weird it doesn’t have an upgrade slot. As it is, it’s too easy to replace with something better.

In a way it would be appropriate if it was vendor trash. Just like the Forgotten Seal’s in GW1. (Which you could trade to collectors for an armor piece, but if you didn’t want that set they had absolutely no use.)

It amused me when I played through the storyline and suddenly something that 250 years ago was very common and near worthless is now a sacred artifact of huge importance.

I was also wondering what’s the point of that thing. As it is, it would have only made sense if it had no level requirement so you could use it on a low level alt. Since it’s not the case, you can get masterwork earrings with better stats.

I didn’t even notice the missing upgrade slot (didn’t have a use for the item so just stored it for when I make a new alt)

Hoping this was just a small bug and they’ll add the slot in, otherwise the item is genuinely useless.

Let’s be honest, exotic trinkets are useless in general. Ascended ones are so easy to get.

It depends on what else you’re doing with your laurels. At the moment all of mine are going towards T6 materials for my legendary, or T6 to sell for gold for other thing. So my alts (who mostly do open-world PvE) are using exotics I’ve picked up from various places or made when levelling jeweller.
