No achieve for all elite ascended weapons?

Yeah, maybe some points and a title would have been great. After doing all of them I feel like “Clearly Has Too Much Time” would have been a nice fit

Those are the rewards for the individual tracks, I’m talking about for completing ALL of them. Many many other examples of that in this game, was just surprised it wasn’t the case for this.

I finally finished my last elite specialization weapon by completing “fix-r-upper” on my scrapper and was really disappointed to see there was no achievement, title, or even ascended armor box given for completing all of them. Considering the time it takes to max one of every class, gather the necessary hero points, and complete multiple collections and maps per character to get the machined weapon then the ascended version, I really feel like this was a missed opportunity to give a reward of some kind. Heck I got an ascended armor box for just collecting every piece of Ley armor.

Anyway, not really meant as a rant or complaint as I enjoyed doing the collections, was just really surprised they didn’t make it some kind of an achievement.

I’m having a lot of fun with Knight stat armor (toughness, power, precision), and the Strength, Defense and Berserker (or Discipline) trait lines. Defense gives you the Armored Attack trait (10% of toughness is turned into power), which completely compensates the lower power, and Adrenal Health and Cleansing Ire have amazing synergy with high toughness.

The Strength trait line with greatsword, gives a 40% damage modifier, Berserker adds another 7-17% depending on what grandmaster trait you pick, so I find my damage to be more than satisfying for PvE content. It works quite well in PvP as well, and you can solo all champion monsters without having to do any kiting. The only problem cases are the ones that constantly steal life, but I doubt they were meant to be solo’d anyway, and I only encountered one or two of those in the world maps.

(When I say “Berserker”, I mean the trait line, not the armor/weapon stats.)

You can also defeat almost any number of monsters at once. My health doesn’t go down even if I am facing 20 monsters, and they go down quite fast as well due to the huge damage modifiers warrior gets, along with the Hundred Blades ability of your greatsword.

I do use Runes of Speed on my armor to not move like a snail, but with Runes of the Scrapper you could even be tankier, while at the same time gaining more damage. You’d just lose out on movement speed. You could substitute Berserker with Discipline if you don’t have the HoT Expansion, then you wouldn’t need Runes of Speed, as Discipline gives you 25% movement speed as a trait. If you go for Discipline, I suggest slotting a longbow as a second weapon, as its Burst ability cannot miss, and you need it to hit for the condition cleansing, the healing and the damage modifier. With Berserker it is not so important, because the Primal Burst of greatsword has a much larger range than the normal Burst, and is much easier to land. Personally I rarely even use a second weapon, I just camp greatsword 99% of the time.

Dyeing, un-dyeing Luminescent armor???

in Living World

I now exactly what you are talking about because I have the same issue. You have a luminescent piece of armor which you then dye to different color(s). When you try to “remove” the dyes to restore it to its original “luminescent” look it doesn’t work, it ends up some weird random colors it never was to begin with. You shouldn’t have to re-dye something to get it back to its original, that’s what the dye remover is for right?

Anyway, the only way I have found to fix it is to transmute it with the original luminescent skin, which of course takes a transmutation charge.
