Earlier on, ArenaNet promised:

We don’t want the player to ever have to grind and do something they don’t want to do to progress in the game.

So I have one very simple but important question for ArenaNet: will we all be able to obtain this new level of gear progression without any form of grinding… including grinding those dungeons?

And i add, without entering in those dungeon. I’m not interested in dungeon grinding, i’m an almost only wvw player, and a jewel + back full ascended will give a consistent advantage. The magic find in the image goes from 7% to 10%, so in total will be a 15% increase from jewel.
That’s to say, a berserker set will have 15% INCREASED CRITICAL DAMAGE. Without considering the back, that now is only of rare quality, so the gap will be greater.

So, basically, in a month or two any berserker thief/warrior/whatever use that jewel that doesn’t do dungeon but almost only wvw will find other thief/warrior with about +20% critical damage than him…
To me there is no problem to a gear prerequiste for a particular dungeon, but keep them in the dungeon, keep the infusion slot, but you can’t possibly force someone in doing dungeons to equip for wvw :|
