Lol, i’m lauging too hard at this, you’re BICKERING about a freaking German site’s obviously opinionated article as if it was Arena Net’s statement.
Until it comes out i’m counting on Anet’s ability to make good on their own word.
When it comes out if it turns out that Ascended armor is overpowering or the start of a gear treadmill, i’m going to react to the facts in front of me, not to the words of a translated article come out of some german site who doesn’t even state his sources. You’re implying those are words from a Dev, don’t see names or even them implying it as a quote.
Totally agree.
But if they do introduce more powerful armor, I hope that it would only be more powerful in the new dungeon. Then there’s something new for people to work towards if they choose to, but if they don’t they’re not any the worse for it.
