Infusions question
Hi all,
I’m a bit confused. I see that I need mighty infusions for my berserker gear according to Metabattle, but those are offensive infusions and I only have defensive slots. Will this work? Thanks!
Metabattle always recommends the maximum potential damage. However, most of the builds there work just fine without ascended gear, let alone without infusions.
In terms of types slots, there are three:
- Defensive: all armor and one version of each ring, accessory, and amulet.
- Offensive: all weapons and one version of the above trinkets.
- Utility: one version exists for amulets only.
Simple agony resistance buffs can go into any of these slots. Offensive stat infusions only work in offensive slots; defensive infusions only in defensive slots; and utilities only in the one type of amulet.
(There are also less simple infusions, that combine agony resistance and an offensive or defensive buff; these, too, follow the same rules.)
tl;dr no, you can’t put an offensive infusion into a defensive slot; then again, you don’t need to have them at all.
