Guild Wars 2

My buddy has a fractal ring and has put a versatile infusion and a crafted +5 AR infusion into and it his AR only reads 5 and this isn’t a wide spread bug so ArenaNet appears to not be helping anyone with because my buddy has submitted a bug report and never had anything fixed

This is preventing people from progressing into fractals and ArenaNet is ignoring these people? I came across threads about this bug and not a single staff post has been made.

This is game breaking for people who do Fractals.

Please ArenaNet fix this. You are preventing people playing with their friends and progressing through fractals. Thanks.

sources you linked are 9 months and a year old. therefor irrelevant, because at that point AR only infusions did not exist.

define what is ‘crafted +5 AR infusion’ ?
a) if it is made in mystic forge, then it goes in same slot as versatile infusion. and its not a bug. in this case your buddy just put crafted infusion over versatile infusion
b) if its agony resist slot infusion (those that get crafted by combining multiple +1 infusions), then ring/backpack should show 2 blue lines with +5 agony. if char gets only +5, then it can be considered bug

if your buddy provided screenshot it would be obvious which one is the case. if its case ‘a’ then you are just wasting everyone’s time

Ok he infused his ring and then put a Versatile Infusion which gives +5 AR on it and then he put a crafted +5 AR infusion which is made via Artificer and he said the one made by Artifice overwrites his Versatile Infusion and to my knowledge this is how 10 AR is acquired on one piece of gear. Correct me if I am wrong please. Just don’t be snappy about it.

you are right, that’s how it’s done

but versatile infusion and agony infusion goes into different slots, and shouldn’t overwrite
versatile can go only into offensive,defensive and utility slot
while agony infusion can go only into agony slot

unless something changed recently

Ok my buddy saved up enough Fractal Relics (again) and put another versatile infusion on his ring and it gave him the intended +10 AR now.

Nevertheless this appears to be a bug and should probably be addressed rather than more and more people wasting their fractal relics on a bug.
