You need 1 coin per collection. That means you only will need 9 coins total assuming you intend to do the ascended weapon collection for all of the new specializations. If you just log in every day until expansion day you will easily earn more than 9 mystic coins from daily log ins.
I started playing after HoT release, so I don’t know if there is a precedent for this already, but will the stat selectable items currently in the game, such as LW3 ascended trinkets and wvw/pvp gear, be able to select the new stats coming with the PoF expansion after release? As far as I know there hasn’t been anything official said about this topic so it would be great to hear from a dev. What do you guys think?
Maybe staff, especially if you are running soul reaping for more life force generation and condi transfer. Or something like dagger/war horn for life force, life steal, cc, and swiftness. It looks like the new heal doesn’t give much health so having the life steal might be nice to pop heal get barrier and then life steal to heal up under barrier. I feel like having a good bit of life force generation is going to be important on scourge as you will be using it constantly for individual abilities rather than the buffer and burst damage that shroud normally gives.
I personally don’t have an issue with doing the story once to get to the map. The merchants at each zone sell a portal scroll so you only have to do the story once and buy the scroll to port any other characters.
As far as why its a requirement, I’m guessing the devs want to try to get players to get a little more immersed in the story and the background of each map, rather than you just randomly show up to this new place for no particular reason. That is also probably part of the reason the story takes you on a tour throughout most of the map so you know what is going on where.
