Let us be able to aquire 3 infusion slots to on the ascended rings!
Why the hell do we have to keep doing PvE to get the top stats in WvW?
All the time you keep giving unbalanced advantages between game modes.
Get a clue and stop it.

the power creep and lack of balance is already big enough. why do you need more stats?

If +20 stats makes or breaks your build, you need a new build.

It’s not bad at all to infuse and attune rings.

Don’t forget two slots on the backpack!

Can’t get that without doing fractals…

The only thing is Fractal tuners need the extra slots while WvW players not so much, and would it kill you to spend some time in Fractals? You make more gold there than WvW, which allows you to buy more food and more siege…..

People spend more time doing PvD in WvW than fighting and complain about having to do a bit of PvE to get an extra buff they actually don’t need.

If you were a pve’er asking for a free ( or easy) Gift of Battle, wvw’ers would answer you :" work for it". I think it’s the same with Fractals specific gear ( in this case infusion slots).
It’s not that hard, especialy now with the golem selling the mats to infuse/attune your rings. No more RNG. You should give it a try.

I haven’t done fractals regularly since before the fractured patch, and I still have enough to get my rings and backpack infused easily. The golem sells almost everything you need, it’s really not all that hard.

The attuned slot costs 3 mastery points, some coins and some spirit shards. So that second slot is pretty cheap.

If someone doesn’t do fractals or are stuck on T1 fractals, buying the items for infusing a ring is not going to happen. I just got to T4 fractals and I’m already drowning in relics… Wish I could sell the items.

I do agree with you, still i would not mind to get some ascended stuff on WvW :|, even if needs to be completed with fractals :|
That probably would make me start doing pve/fractals.

it would be better than being flooded with pve dungeons rewards…

Your point being? Its not like you are not allowed to go do that content yourself and get the same amount of infusion slots. And those extra 5 stats per ring are not the reason you are losing fights.

agree should be able to get fractal items with badge of honor and proof of heroics

WvW players should start to do PvE. After all WvW is PvEvP

Tbh, there are quite a lot who don’t mind it. It’s just the same loud minority that cries about every single change Arena Net makes.

EremiteAngel.9765:

We don’t need more stats, but if anet is going to introduce them then they should give each game mode their own way to attain them.

This is the same argument that happened when HoT was released and people were forced out of WvW to upgrade everything. When people complained on here about not being able to level their stuff up through WvW you had a handful of kittens trolling the threads saying stuff like,“the new PvE isn’t that bad”, and “it won’t kill you to PvE”. The result of forcing players out of WvW was a kitten ton of people quit the game all together. I personally quit for several months because I can’t stomach this games boring kitten PvE.

For those talking about the gift of battle crap, that’s not at all relevant. Legendaries are cosmetic, having access to higher stats isn’t.

• ANet announces that WvW players get access to 11 additional stat-boosting slots.
• WvW players complain that they didn’t get access to 13.

All the people that have the infusions slot worked for them in fractals you can do the same thing, and no it’s not much different if people don’t want to WvW for GoB then they should give them their own way to get them using your logic. The only people that need the extra infusion slots are people that do high Level fractals.

Powercreep = powercreep, 30 extra stats = 30 extra stats, if you think only one mode should allow you to aquire this or only if you have the expension then you’re already lost.

Still odd how this playerbase cries when someone can buy a legendary skin with real money, yet is cool with powercreep and uneven playing grounds.

Who said anything about losing?

My point being it shouldn’t be like that. You simply shouldn’t have to go outside of the game mode you enjoy to do something that you find boring in order to stay on the top stat-wise in the game mode you enjoy. It profits no-one.
If they only kept the extra infusion slots within fractals, like before i would have had no problem with it.

It should be easy for Anet to make a system for us WvW’ers to stay on even grounds. If they only cared. WvW’ers are the last to get any stat based items.
No legendary back item yet, even thoug this gamemode is more played than SPvP i believe.

i have it though. no big deal to be honest. i still lose and win as frequently as night and day.

LOL I know right isn’t the irony so funny, that it has you dying of uncontrollable laughter.

I’ll break it down to you tho. They are not complaining because they have to do pve. They are complaining because they can not get it, just by pressing skill 1 and outblobing things 4 or more to 1 with a 80 plus man omni-blob.

TL:DR

These players are mostly complaining because the content that requires them to get these upgrades, actually requires a little bit of effort and brain power. lol

As I sit with 6 infused and attuned Ascended Rings that was super easy for me to get. again lol

Because it’s the zerglings that care about this right? It’s not the roamers that are constantly fine tuning their builds…..

i just get it for more health thats all. guards need health to fight all the condi monsters.

Someone called for condi monster? It might be high time I logged on to GW2 to spread some more cancer from my Perplex-Condi Mesmer and my Condi Reaper, or continue grinding up a Daggerfall Covenant character in this other MMO I playing at the time I’m typing this post? kitten decisions decisions decisions.

You’re one of these plyers who can’t stand to play on even grounds. Arent you? You want to keep the PvE privileges for yourself. Funny to see how many of you are fighting me on this. Saying it doesen’t matter, still they buy them.

Hypocrites!

I play on my alt with full exotics and non infused rings and amulet (exotic back and accessories) and I only feel uneven when fighting Elite specs. And even then I still smash a lot people unto the ground…

Honestly, the skill cap in this game is so low that 25 extra stats aren’t going to change the outcome of a fight.

25 stats won’t change the outcome of a fight? How can you possibly know that? Small margins can decide the outcome easily. So i really don’t care of what you think or feel like. Naive minds doesen’t see that stats are one of the deciding factors in a fight, which almost every attack is based on.

I’m a filthy min-maxer with these kinds of things.

I think the easiest solution would be to have WvW related items that we can either:

a) obtain from a reward track
b) implemented into the system via loot bags and/or certain NPC drops

…that we can then chuck into the MF with the ring to create dual-slot and tri-slot rings.

Yeah, it really sucks that WvW isn’t on even grounds with a lot of the other game mode’s rewards… the content similarly overlaps. Ascended gear is pretty much best in slot for Fractals, likewise with WvW battles which is mostly zerging/roaming.

People will argue to the ends of time whether or not those so-called minuscule extra stats are worth it but at the end of the day we want to play what we enjoy – that is WvW. I think is it too hard to ask ANet to implement ways to acquire infused/attuned gear related to WvW?

It would be nice if we could use Badges of Honour as a currency to buy some of the already existing item requirements (mists essence as a prime example) much like fractal relics are required to obtain them.

no
legendaries do not provide any meaningful stat advantage in any game mode, therefore GoB does not need to be available elsewhere
stat infusions do provide meaningful stat advantages, therefore the extra slots should be obtainable

fwiw why not a wvw mastery that lets you build multislot rings and backpiece, maybe a deep Provisions Master mastery
