Guild Wars 2

Not sure if this was intended or not, but incase it wasn’t, the stats are significally less for the Vial of Salt. The Vial of Salt is a new amulet introduced with Leagues, with ascended stats. However, despite being ascended, it gives less total stat points when compared towards its exotic form, as displayed in the image attachment.

yes it gives exactly the stats of an ascended 1-hand weapon

as if a dev selected the wrong type of item (for example sword) for this Amulett

When chosing a 3-stat type combo
instead of:
+157 +108 +108

it only gives:
+125 +90 +90

Fix ma amulet plox

despicable bumping :v

i must be missing something. how is 108 < 102? are you counting the upgrade? because i don’t think those are included in the 5% ascended stat increase.

shouldn’t it be 133, 133, 71, 71 for that stat set?

You missed factoring in the gem slot on the exotic. There’s only a fusion slot on the Ascended. With the gem slot, the exotic gives much higher stats.

Aye, it should, but it seems to be bugged atm

OP should have maybe uploaded a picture comparing it to another ascended amulett
then you would easily see how it has worse stats than usual

the exotic comparison should make it clear too though if you think about it for a moment

Updated to show stat comparisons between another 4 statted amulet

Maybe Anet did this on purpose given the context of the item in question. Lol.

Hi I just finished my Vial of Salt ascend amulet from pvp ranked vendor items. And it cost a lot of gold and in the end that amulet has exotic stats and I can pick from standard exotic stats combinations.

Is it intended or it’s a bug and you will address it retrospectively because building new one I will not be able to afford.

Thank you for feedback.

You know excessive bumping is against the rules right? In fact posting for the sole purpose of bumping is as well. At the very least, on all forums, give 24 hours between >.>

yeah, i caught it after i thought about it. maybe it has something to do with path of acquisition? only real difference i could figure.

Aye, that is true

Can confirm, made it to be alternative to +exp neck for raids, does not have correct stats for zerker.

Normal is: +157 +108 +108
Salt is: +125 +90 +90

Please fix

So perhaps this vial of salt is not full due to the tears of our enemies, but from our own! (Just a joke, I agree this needs a fix)

Didn’t even know the vial was an amulet lol, thought we were gonna use it for the legendary.

Oops. That’s the one I meant.

Now the Crusader option for the amulet is missing with the updated stats, lol. Was hoping to finally get my ascended Crusader amulet with this update….

Any possible update, Gaile (or whoever)?

Assassin’s selection also magically disappeared. Very disappointing. I think the entire idea is to make us salty one way or another. First because the stats were more in line with Exotic stats, now by taking away the options we had for stats selection when it’s updated to Ascended status. I’m feeling salty, ArenaNet, heh—mission accomplished.

yes
i dont understand why anet just doesnt make all stats available with these amuletts

Same for the Exotic Revenant Armor gear….
only 2 or 3 stats available !!!

that is just not acceptable… and i just dont understand WHY anet doesnt offer us more if not just all stats…
