if it takes as much effort as it takes for a weapon per piece… forget it, i won’t even try because it won’t just take you a ridiculous amount of time (what am i building a house irl? wtf is supposed to take 12 weeks in a video game?) but knowing how omega fugly the armor looks, no thanks, take your ugly armor and gtfo.
If it’s like Ascended weapons it will take time, yes. Effort, no.
it does take effort because im forced to do all boring world events for ascended mats when i don’t want to.
What level fractal are you that you need to farm world events?
i stopped doing fractals about a month ago cuz i have all fractal weapons needed for my main. Now im forced to do boring dragons…
A quick comment… if you consider yourself “forced” to do something boring in a game (as in, something that in the end, we do solely for fun), I’d hate to know what you think of an actual job…
The update ascended weapons were introduced we had absolutely nothing else. So its craft ascended crap/level to 500 or do what you were doing before patch, nothing but wvw and stand in LA. Fun gameplay.
So, you weren’t having fun, you found what you were doing before patch boring, what you’re doing now boring…. why are you still playing then?
Just a little curious, I mean, nobody pays us to play (unless you work on a gaming magazine/website or in game development/testing, that is), nobody forces us to play… why still playing something you find boring instead of just going to any other MMO or game you might have fun in?
i swear the amount of ppl asking this same question to me and everyone else displeased with current gw2 direction is just kittenedup. Tired of answering the same question…
The main thing I agree with here is the fact that I am forced to do something I have had no attention of doing. I, however, do enjoy most aspects of the game… But, I never wanted nor needed to craft until now to obtain an Ascended weapon. Relying on the 00000.1% chance of a Ascended weapon chest is not a viable option, because even if you get one it may not have the stats that you need. Thus, I am forced to waste my time and/or gold into materials just to reach the best stats item. I just wish there was more ways to obtain these items, instead of being forced into one single method.
