Patch notes July 9
Siege blueprints are no longer account-bound and can now be mailed to other players and traded on the Trading Post. Players who already have any siege blueprints and want the tradable version can either obtain another or use the one they have and then use the “2” skill to pack it up again.
Sweet!
Doesn’t seem to work. Use the existing account-bound version and then hit “2” to pack it up again. Still account-bound.

The patch isn’t even out yet! XD

Is the patch already live?
Oh lol. That explains a lot. It is almost July 10 where I am (Sydney, AU). I forget we are working on Pacific time.

This will help reduce the cost for the defenders by quite a bit. This is a much needed and much welcome change.
Wow more nerfs for mesmer. This is ridiculous and shameful! Chaos armor only lasts 5 seconds so in practice the user only gets 3 random boons because of the internal recharge. This change also mean people can spam attacks on mesmers with chaos armor because they will now receive less punishments due to the stupid internal recharge on applied conditions. Sigh… Chaos Armor only lasts for 5 seconds, WTF!!!!! Thieves and warriors are gonna start spamming without any worries now. Thanks ANet… what a bunch of impotent and ignorant team.
I know it’s just another silly Ability Points tree they added, but I really like Build Master. That’s definitely something I’ll be investing some points into.
Cool ability ANet, but please focus more on better rewards overall (gold, gear, something for winning/participating) and better compensation for support characters.

Wow amzaing, this alone can compete with the new spvp and and new pve zone

Finally Now i don’t have to try to stop a commander to give them to them. Best note so far for the WvW section.
Please give us a keyring…

Wonder if this was changed due to Political Correctness…at least it was a simple change that didn’t take them too much time (I hope).
Out numbered? WT(? really that is an important change? How about downed state health in Necros? If your going to have PC matters are we eliminating the drinking games next?

You mean, the thing that was already fixed in the previous patch? You want them to break it back that’s it?
Siege being tradable will certainty change the game.
But it does cause me to wonder if it will just shift more of the burden to commanders. If people get siege from JP/drops/world ranks, they could just sell them on the AH.

Siege being tradeable is kind of silly. I love the idea of mailing it, but really, all of the siege items have fixed prices already, so trading it is weird. Unless supply somehow goes through the roof and the prices get driven down hard, they will all normalize to the value you could buy them for from NPCs. And if that’s true, then I’d never buy from other players because they will add premiums to the cost to offset TP fees, I’d rather just buy them from the siege merchants.

I’m sure there will be those that try to make some money off it, which may mean they can at least buy them somewhat cheaper than from the npcs (if they buy them with coin anyways).
I’m going to be just mailing it to the commanders I try to normally give the stuff to.
Can’t wait to see some of the commanders opinions when they get flooded with mail with just siege I think I’ve only see it once where a commander asked to be send gold for siege, or buy it and drop it so that commander could pick it up.

I didn’t even think of that. Badges of Honor just got a hard convertible value in gold. Badge of Honor ~= 1 silver.
This will make people think twice about buying exotics with badges. 200 badges + 1 gold is now equivalent to 3 gold, which may or may not be better than the going AH rate.

We have a few commanders who buy siege at 1/2 the vendor prices prior to this patch.

This may actually cause enough of a spike in siege supply on the TP that it could drive the value below the merchant value. This all assumes that people actually attempt to use this method to convert BoH into silver. I’m interested to see how this plays out.
Anyone know the stats of the celestial armor pieces?

Celestial (that literally its name, like Zerker and Valk define stat sets).
As in full stat spread evenly.

I think he’s curious about how many of each stat each piece provides.
Yeah, that’s what I’m wondering.
IE, Shaman Reward Breastplate has:
+72 Power
+72 Vitality
+101 Condition Damage
Total of 245 stats
Runes of divinity add stats to Power, Toughness, Vitality, Precision, Healing Power, and Condition Damage and crit damage (7 stats), so if Celestial armor adds to all of these but gives close to the same total stats, you’d only get +35 to everything.
Yea, being able to buy siege on TC is going to change WvW. My prediction ? Defense will matter even less now….and hello even more xp/karma trains. No point when the enemy can slap together a 10 golem rush at half the cost and take down doors in 30 seconds.
