Permanent Upgrade Extractor

Old thread with my thoughts:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Permanent-Upgrade-Extractor
And other thread, which I suspect a moderator would close if I replied to it:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/hot/Permanent-upgrade-extractor/first#post6406018

But to surmise, I would buy a permanent upgrade extractor, that uses 1G per use, in a heartbeat. I hope Anet will consider it or something similar to allow our characters more flexibility and utility when it comes to raids.

The character customization is one of the best features of this incredible game.
But, runes and sigils stand as an obvious flaw to the ease and freedom of switching builds, which severely restrains what each character can do in a particular group.

For 5000 gems you can get 25 extractors, this means you can change your armor by itself 5 times or your armor & weapons together at least 3 times.
Or, you can grind for a second set of slotted ascended gear and freely switch builds whenever you want and in 1/10th the time.
The choice between the two is obvious and many would prefer to go through the effort of creating a second or third set as a result.
After all, it does not seem a good idea to spend around $60 to be able to change something a couple of times and then spend $60 dollars again to do it a couple more times.

But having said that, though I would never purchase a disposable upgrade extractor, I would gladly pay for a permanent extractor that uses 1G for each use.
This would definitely be worth it in my book and I would gladly spend money for it.

Please consider implementing something like this, it would greatly be appreciated.

Finally… After 3 Days of Attempts, I Finally Got Gold…
For the Love of the Gaming Gods, Anet, Make These Gold Ones Easier…

They already did. The adventures don’t need to be nerfed further.

In what way have they made Shooting Gallery or Fallen Masks more reasonable. In the case of Shooting Gallery, memorization, twitch skills, and luck can eventually get you Gold. But, it is still absurd how much effort is needed. For Fallen Masks, you literally can’t waste a second and have to hope the RNG Gods are on your side. If you, yourself, got Gold and claim it doesn’t need to be fixed, then you have my respect for you are more skilled than I. But, in no way can Fallen Masks Gold be considered fair for the less skilled/lucky.

  • Shooting Gallery: Added 30 seconds to the time limit.
  • Fallen Masks: Added 15 seconds to the time limit.

For Fallen Masks, the trick is to maintain swiftness from the mushrooms while using the mini map to determine where the next mask. It takes a small amount of memorizing on what the optimal path to each is.

To say it requires a small amount of memorizing is frankly rude, did you actually try to get 25? But, thank you for sharing that information on the update, 15 seconds… jeez… barely managed to get 25 with hardly a second to spare and that was after spending most of my game time for 3 days trying to get the thing. Still, at least the wiki acknowledges that the placement of the next mask is often too far from the previous one making it near impossible to get gold.

Are you BEEPING kidding me, SILVER??? Silver is easy as BEEP. That is not the BEEPING problem. GOLD that is the problem, spend days trying to get that BEEP and unless you are the luckiest BEEPBEEPER or a BEEPER don’t BEEPING say More Effort = Gold. Forgive the lack of maturity, but get within ONE second of getting 25 and see if you can control your need to spout expletives. One 24 in an Ocean of 23…

Not if you want to complete your gold set of mini game achievements…
And, stubbornly refuse to give up until you do…
This is literally painful for perfectionists/completionists…
If they literally add 10 seconds, then this would be far more reasonable….

I don’t get why they won’t fix this, it is simply too hard, at least add 10 seconds to the countdown…
