ShroomOneUp.6913 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 GATHER ROUND MY LOYAL SUBJECTS. maybe BOTH of you have a point. How? well YES that ting should stay in WvW no doubt, but the OP has also a point that there should be two legendary rings avilable from PvE only. so instead of demanding the old leg ring to be obtainable via pve as well....just make a new ring. and better yet make WvW AND PvP versions of the other trinkets as well. OPTIONS, PEOPLE. OPTIONS! With more trinkets anet could also deploy more eye kitten inducing effects that would not work as infusion or other particle effects. But seriously why can't we have BOTH? a no/little effect WvW trinket set, a PvP set as well Next to our already existing PvE trinkets. This could be even extended so far to say that there should be TWO different PvE legendary sets. one through raids and faster and one that takes even longer than WvW. i heard this from a person who recently finished HT CM. but take this last one as a mere bonus suggestion. 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArchonWing.9480 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 (edited) Actually, I didn't know you could only get 1 pve ring. Maybe that could be the subject of the next living story? They should introduce new accessories for the missing slots. WvW/PvP should get earrings too. And PvP should get rings. On the other hand I mean living story gives so much ascended jewellery that it is kind of a moot point. As a side note, I don't really see what's the problem with addressing WvW rewards in general. I mean, sure, OP doesn't deserve Conflux, but still. I mean, for those of you that don't main WvW, are those rewards really adequate compared to time spent? I finish Diamond pretty much every week and I could easily see why people like the OP would be annoyed. Also 7 weeks to me is not really an issue. But you do have to devote a sigifigant amount of time per work too, if you are to do it in 7 weeks. Especially true if your rank isn't very high.

Brandon Uzumaki.1524 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Nah, WvW need better rewards/reward structure, but playing the mode eficiently should still be necessary. I made two Confluxes last week and i saw how disconnected the reward structure is, needed 3.700 Tickets to make two of them (i do a lot of Fractals so i got the ascended rings there), and last week after a loooooong time i finally got it, had everything set, the 10 Gifts of Battle, everything for the two Mystic Tributes, etc, but then i looked at my Memory of Battles, and i had only 2k, while you need 3.500 total for two rings, so it was either another 10 weeks of farming (probably more) or forking 350g to buy the rest, so i had to spend the gold, it's so bad, specially because this doesn't happen on other game modes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that's the other problem. There's no real way to play efficiently to get pips faster, besides tagging up. Granted, a solution to this is a bit hard to think of.

You need a total of 2600 skirmish tickets to make conflux. Well guess what some people do not enjoy playing part of this game like it is a god kitten job, and with all the Rifle Mech crap that is going around on WvW it is impossible to even get close to getting those numbers. At present with the 2600 tickets needed at max chests you will need to full complete 7.1 weeks in a row. This is 1,000,000% unfair to anyone who wants to have conflux but does not enjoy WvW at all. You need to fix this, if you want to keep conflux hidden behind the skirmish tickets than make them so you can sell them on the TP. The same thing can be said for PvP. Some players just do not like those parts of the game and should not be penalized for not wanting to do them. Please fix this over sight, and either one make the tickets able to be sold on the TP or give a second currency that can be used to make the ring and either or situation works just as well.......While your at it really really really look hard at the Mech they are all over the place and they need to be fixed the rifle is just WAY to OP. What we really need, is a second PVE legendary ring... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lottie.5370 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 I think a better solution would be to just add another legendary ring with a different way to acquire it (similar to Aurora/Vision). Conflux is fine as it is. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
