Ascended Shards of Glory
just fix this situation
Or just wait, whats the rush?, your already farming an entire set bar 1 item in a matter of days when previously it would have taken peeps months to a year. good example, i was gradually building up a celestial set over the last year crafting as i go, now boom, a whole alt set in 2 weeks. T
hey should fix it by making it 1 or 2 piece per season depending on how well you do, or in fact since the gear is not used in spvp actually move it to wvw or pve where it is used and therefore belongs.

you are oviously a arena net boot licker troll. Pvp players cant get anything until this season for 4 years . this is the first time we can get something unique for us. and we cant even finishing it. Any way just go and troll some other topic, after all you have been paid by comunity managers of arena net.
Well at least the helms on the set are ugly, can skip them for now.

We can’t even finish it? Do you want to stay just one season?
I mean you also have chances for ascended chest drops from reward tracks so there’s plenty of access to ascended equipment in pvp. I mean you have to consider how long it can take pve dudes to make it, why should we be able to walk in and get something in 2 days they spent a good few months or years grinding for? We even make money while we get our set, they have to pay a ton for mats. You have to see the full picture before getting upset about something that’s really just a huge blessing to players.
On a side note it also helps matchmaking to limit shards so we don’t have pve players trying to farm in pvp 24/7 to try and fully gear all 20 of their chars in 1 season. This gets them in for rewards and out super quick so the rest of us can play without their hindrance.

But, obviously, you do not need ascended armor for PvP. It doesn’t actually belong to PvP, therefore it should not be a reward, in my opinion.
On the other side if a PvP player wants to try Pve content he doesn’t have the ascended armor (for fracs, raids etc), since he might not have the mats to farm.
Best solution : they should have added PvP achievements to get the armor :v)
Like : 20 wins for the arms, 50 for the chest etc.
But as it is now, it just lured a lot of new players to PvP (also afk farmers) who don’t know the rotation etc.

Why would PvP players even NEED Ascended armor in the first place? :P Their entire game mode is capped at Exotic tier anyway.
Obviously ANet put the limit at 1200 Ascended Shards because they didn’t want players to get Ascended armor via PvP too quickly. As it is, it’s ALREADY the cheapest and fastest way to get Ascended armor, when you compare it to the random nature of Fractals, the slow grind from raids, or the extremely expensive and time-gated PvE crafting method. By spreading it over 2 seasons, it at least doesn’t outpace the other methods by too much.
That repeatable last should give ascended shards of glory every time
Awful suggestion. That would make it possible to farm like 10 full sets. PvP is not a farm fest. Go back to Auric Basin.

You are obviously far too angry to be capable of any kind of reasonable discussion.
the set is way too easy to get as it is. I hate fractals so its cost me a lot of gold to make my Ascended gear. Now im able to get it so easy in pvp. If it was repeatable I honestly think you would have people spamming games and AFK’ing even more than they currently do.
Can you imagine…. (example) .“oh I wanna watch this movie for the next 2 hours. I’ll spam games in the meant time and AFK while getting 3 pips per match for the next 2 hours. And since i don’t care about PvP and rating it will be free gear for all my toons.”
bonus since reporting players has been proven not to mean a thing (never heard of anyone getting punished for AFKing even after multiple reports) it will be cancerous as heck.
Your typical average gamer -
“Buff my main class, nerf everything else. "
“Buff my main class, nerf everything else. "
Im “ok” with the number of shards and their acquisition. Would be fine if they dropped it to 1000 per season even, and weighed it more heavily towards the end of the chests. Not that this would really dissuade anyone that has already wandered in to get the shards.
I’d be “ok” with them removing pips for losses (not that I see 3 pips as a big deal honestly). Losing isn’t necessarily “all your fault” and getting nothing at all feels pretty crappy. Especially if you battle your heart out and lose by 10 points or less.
They do need to do something about afking in general. Its been an issue every season. They need harsher penalties. Perhaps not just dishonor, but actually removing rewards from accounts found in violation of afking or match manipulation. They have done something similar in GW1 in the past.
Don’t look at me like that. Whatever you’ve heard, it’s probably not true.
with the new reward system you cant get even one whole set off ascended armor. you can only1200 max and you need at least 1300+. That repeatable last should give ascended shards of glory every time or we need to wait until next season for just one piece.
Honestly, you should just count your blessings.
The new reward system has to go, and it probrably will.
It is effectively a free ascended gear giveaway session this season.
You shouldn’t even be rewarded for losing.
