Guild Wars 2

hiho guys i’m new to eles so be gentle ~.o

ok im farming ta because the aesthetic’s of the nightmare set just do it for me… so my question is should i spend my hard earned blooms on prec, tough, con dmg set or pow, prec, con dmg set?

this is for staff build wvw and pve… for dag/dag i’ll run cof for gear

thanks in advance for your help ~.o

I say go for the Precision, Toughness, Condition damage set so you’re not totally made of glass.

Sidenote, there’s a Sylvari on my server with pale white skin and that Nightmare set dyed pure white – she looks like a ghost. It’s pretty cool. I’m on FA server. First time I saw her was in WvW and I actually did a double take lol – like what is that?

You could always just get whatever set you want and just transmute it into the stats you need.

wow that sounds kewl leiloni… i wonder if people run from her in wvw who are afraid of ghosts

yer i was thinking of the set bonuses arc ~.o

I don’t follow.

When you transmute gear you can choose which of the 2 pieces models you want, which of the 2 pieces core stats you want, and which of the 2 pieces socketed gems/runes you want. The runes are where the set bonuses are. They aren’t on the armour pieces.

If you just want Nightmare for the looks, you can, depending on what stats you’re actually aiming for, either buy the crafted armour that has the stats you want, buy the karma armour that has the stats you want, or get the dungeon armour with the stats you want. You can, additionally, buy whatever runes/gems you want. You’re going to make enough gold farming tokens for the set that you’ll be able to afford the rest of your exotics as well as any crafted armour you need to get the stats you want (assuming you wanted crafted armour instead of, say, karma armour, or whatever).

My point is that you can transmute any light armour to look like any other light armour while keeping the stats and/or gems intact, if you so desire.

Yes, he can transmute. But if the Nightmare set has the stats he wants, why not buy the right piece?

well arc is right in that i could make the light armour with the stats i want say pow, vit, con dmg… and put the bonus and looks from nightmare.

but its expensive option or time consuming if i were to farm say cof 1 and 2 and disenchant the gear for globs… but hey rome wasnt built in a day ~.o

Can certainly just buy the right pieces from Nightmare set, but it’s stats are pretty bad.
