So I made a few +7 Agony infusions to put them on my armor that currently have +5 Agony Infusions on them. But it’s not letting me. According to the wiki at the bottom:
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Agony_Infusion

Alternatively, you can replace existing infusions with a new one.

Which is exactly what I want to do, replace my old +5 with the new +7s. Hopefully it isn’t intended that I should be using an upgrade extractor on all my armor just so I can replace the +5 with my new +7 infusions cause then you’re really crazy :P

it isn’t a bug. You can’t use those infusion for amor; i copy from wiki:

“There are only three gear slots that can currently hold Agony Infusions: the two ring slots and the back item”

The infusions you need for your armor are these: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Infusion#List_of_infusions (offensive, defensive, utility) it depends on your armor what infusion it needs

The issue is that the nomenclature used by ANet is horribly confusing.

So you can increase agony resistance by adding simple or fine infusions with agony resistance to an infusion slot on uninfused Ascended gear or by adding Agony Infusions to an Agony Infusion slot on infused ascended gear.

But you can’t add Agony Infusions to an infusion slot or infusions with agony resistance to the extra Agony Infusion slot on Infused gear.

So simple that almost no one understands it!


There is only person we can turn to when things are as clear as mud. It turns out that Dr. Seuss updated the recent wiki article on this topic:

Very well, then
Ms Dessa, ma’am.
Let’s have a little talk
about Agony Resistance….

What do you know
about Agony Resistance?
well…

When you resist against agony in fractals,
it’s called
an Agony Resistance stat, y’all.

And when you
Add resist with simplicity,
it’s a Simple Infusion with Agony Resistance.

AND when resistance is complicated
By combining agony resistance with another stat,
they call it a Fine Infusion with Agony Resistance
AND…

When the Agony is so intense
That simple and fine resistance is futile
And you need ascended gear with
An agony infusion slot…

…they call this
Infused Ascended Gear
With an Agony Resistance Slot
That is upgraded with an +x Agony Resistance item.

AND…
When fractals
have these battles
with agony
that requires
more resistance
and more infusions
and agony infusions
eating noodles…

…they call this a…

Now wait
a minute
Mr. ANet Name guy!

When a dev is
in the fractal where
the agony resistance is futile
with the bosses adding agony
in a puddle on a
krait-eating Mossman
THIS is what they call…

…a mess.
