Guild Wars 2

Illconceived Was Na.9781:

Attunement is what you’re looking for OP. The mats don’t require doing fractals (although you need to spend some core mastery points on Fractal Attunement).

• Agonized Essence x1 (24 silver)
• +1 Agony Resistance infusion (available on TP, ~2 silver)
• 1 Philosopher’s Stone (Miyani & her twins sell 6 for a spirit shard).
• The ring you want to attune.

---

Infusing is much, much more expensive & I only recommend it for people doing high-end fractals (who will end up with some/all of the mats). You need 3 tiers of the Mist Essences. Those drop in fractals, but the same vendor also sells them for a combination of coin + fractal relics.

Ok thanks guys, I see Attunement is easy to attain, I will attune for now and probably go for infused another time.

“It’s just 15 stat total for infused rings plus back item”
Hey I like min/maxing D:

Chaba.5410:

Attuning a ring isn’t really a grind. You just need to get the second fractals mastery then buy Agonized Essence for 24s. The other mats are bought from Miyani or TP.

Ah really? I got the impression from the wiki that all the mats needed for attunement/infusion were only obtainable from the vendor in Mistlock after doing mastery/fractals. I’ll have a look into that though thanks

Edit: Ah I see it now, I did not notice there were two ingredient methods, silly me :)

I haven’t played in around 6 months due to life circumstances and I returned recently to play some sPvP and WvW (I always played for these game modes).

I only just discovered that infused and attuned rings with the bonus 2 slots can now take any infusion, not only agony. However, the only way to get ascended rings attuned and infused requires currency and materials only obtainable via fractals..

So, in order to maximise stat potential in WvW, a game mode that I basically play the game for, I’m forced to grind hours of PvE content that I’m just not interested in?

I understand this probably isn’t a big deal for a lot of people and pve-ers, and stats aren’t everything, but given that there is a clear divide between players and which content they choose to play, it just seems really counter intuitive that Anet would force players into grinding content they aren’t interested in so they can reach their max potential in the content they do play.

So, do you think we could potentially be looking at getting an alternative method for WvW-ers or a reward track to get these materials?

I tried it out on a few golems, the AA is noticeably faster

It’s called a bo staff, it’s used as a weapon by martial artists

Same issue here, just tried to make a new character

Consistently getting disconnected with the “Game client lost connection to the server” error.

I received this error and was kicked twice while trying to do the final HoT story chapter. Finally, I managed to complete the story on my third attempt, and as I was watching the final climax it happened again. So despite actually finishing the whole thing I have to do it all over again :(
