Guild Wars 2

I have 70 laurels and really no use for them. The build I run on my ranger requires me to have jewels on my accessories so there’s no point really in getting acceded items. Should I save my laurels for later in case Anet adds something more I can spend them on like ascended armor? Or should I just spend them all on dye in hopes that I’ll get lucky and make some gold?

Are you sure there’s no Ascended stat allocation that corresponds to your trinket+jewel setup?

I’m saving mine. If ascended trinkets will be craftable (a bit if, admittedly) then I’d rather save mine for something else.

I don’t believe that there is. I run soldiers trinkets and clerics jewels.

Yup. No ascended for those stats. You could save your laurels, or try and make some money. Unless you need the cash I’d save ‘em. You never know. Anet could come along and kill your build next patch, and then you’d be able to spend those laurels.

People have been making a good case against laurels.

I think the result was, buying it with guild commendation or WvW tokens is cheaper. Use your laurels for T6 mats and turn them into gold, or have some fun with them getting the minis, dye kits or whatever else you’re into.

Or you can use your laurels to buy dyes. They convert to gold very well, even with instant selling them. With 70 laurels, that is a nice chunk of gold.

I read somewhere (idk source) that eventually there would be Ascended armor.. willing to put money on this needing laurels.

Couldn’t you run a mix of soldier’s and cleric’s trinkets for the same results?
Anyway, if you convert to gold t6 bags should have a better rate than dyes. When I did it, I got around 40s per laurel after TP taxes

Yes. You could definitely mix and match to get the desired result.
