What is the most useful utility infusion to pick up for WvW?

Does Gold Find affect the loot bags obtained from killing enemy players?

Yes, so does magic find… but if you were to do anything, you might as well get +Karma or get an offensive/defensive for stats!

XP utility infusion for the win.

More skill points = more superior siege, or more skill points to convert into gold.

Made about 20 gold this past weekend off of skill points from WvW alone. Not as good as if I spent the whole time playing Trade Post PvP or PvE, but at least I got to do something I enjoy doing.

Magic find or precision imo.

4 stat infusion costs 5 laurels. An ascended ring costs 30 and only gives you 21 stats over exotic. Seems the infusion is the better buy actually. Sure the gold and magic find is worth more budget wise, but some people don’t need more gold.

35 laurels for a ring. 30 for an amulet.

Which recipe are u using to make profit with skill points? Cause I don’t see any real profitable recipe with crystals/philosopher stones

Mystic Forge/Convert Skill Points —> Items.

Gold Find/Magic Find/Exp From Kills/Karma does not affect this at all.

@Aten.8046 and Jorase.5892:

Eldritch Scroll recipes almost always guarantee a 7 silver per SP (or better) profit.
The Anomaly is very resistant to “seasonal” price fluctuations and typically gets you about 15 silver per SP.

Those are both low-risk ways of turning SP into $$.

There’s quite a few other recipes out there of varying risk levels.

A couple weeks ago, T5 dust → T6 dust → Master Maintenance Oil transmute chain netted 68 silver/SP profit according to the mathematical average transmute return. That’s a particularly risky venture, though. At the same time, the potential maximum loss was losing 62 silver per SP spent while the maximum profit was about 3 gold/SP.

Eldrich Scroll to make Mystic Weapons. Averagely the other indigents cost around 3 to 3.5 gold and each Mystic Weapons sells for 7 to 9.5 gold. Your 50 Skill Points = 4 to 5 gold so there is around 35 to 50 silver per SP. Please forgive me if my calculations are wrong. I made quite a number of mystic weapons for my own use so I see the pricing of mystic weapons are ranging 7 to 9.5 gold.

Karma can be used to get Lost Orrian Jewelry Boxes and those ones can drop tier 6 items, which means money; karma is also useful (needed) to build legendary weapons. Due karma can be obtained in almost every department (PvE/dungeons/WvWvW…) the extra 15% karma infusion for amulets is very useful.
