    If you want to get a lot of Winterfresh Berries quickly, I recommend doing the "Return to A Crack In The Ice" achievement. The objectives are very easy, and will net you 500 berries for completing any 6 objectives.

    I would add a disclaimer that you should never ever ever stat-swap an ascended precursor. It will be replaced with a generic variant and no longer function as a precursor, which is a major feelsbad moment when it happens.

    As a resident dungeon enthusiast I'd also call out that dungeon currency are a great way for getting gear with core stats. Mostly only useful for berserker but still worth mentioning as a way of getting exotic gear for zero gold. Also a decent way to get exotic underwater weapons on all of your characters for cheap if you're like me and don't want to waste ascended weapons on those.

      @Northernsolstice ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@willdeit6057 I don't see Vipers as an option and my understanding was that only core stats are available. I was thinking recently that simply adding Celestial as an option for one of the dungeons would be a neat little buff to dungeons, as a nice and easy way for newer players to get a powerful stat combo.

    For the ascended backpack, you can get a "free" one with the achievement "Raise the Banners: ...", the achievement is unlock after doing a story part of PoF.
    If I remember correctly it is a pretty easy achivement to do

    Amazing guide Lara! I remember my days farming berries in Bitterfrost (haha). It is a bit sad that most interesting stat combinations for non-power and support roles are a bit more difficult (cries in "harrier" (full heal), "viper" (condi dps), "diviner" (power boon dps) and "ritualist" (condi boon dps) 🥲). I'm sure this will help out lots of (new) people!!!
    Good luck gearing up everyone!

    Another good alternative source for an Exotic chest piece and just stat selectable exotic armour in general is Warlord's Armor Boxes from WvW and ranked PvP. You won't be able to get them as quickly as Bladed, but if you play much of either mode, those boxes will start piling up after a while and saving them to gear up new characters can save a quite bit of time and money.

    pro tip for bladed armor: dont buy the gloves as they can be a drop in airship cargo. you will get them eventually. i currently have 4 unused glove boxes lying around on my bank.
    edit: another pro tip: always craft zojjas (berserkers) ascended items and statswap them with the inscription/insignia with the stats of your choice (+5ectoplasmas +1anthology of heroes), as some ascended insignias/inscription are really annoying/expensive to craft

  • @garver5833
    @garver5833 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    A bit harder to get but the ascended trinkets from Bloodstone Fen can be stat swapped at the vendor that sells them. Also do the IBS Easy 3 strikes to get Eternal Ice Shards, you can swap these for other LWS4 map currency (like Mistborn Motes) at Bjora Marches. This can help you gear alts a bit faster and put a little extra gold in your pocket. Lastly check the LWS3, 4 and IBS dailies to get map currencies too.

  • @HinaRocks103

    Thank you, thank you, thank you! This guide is going straight into my gw2 reference playlist, and then I'm shooting it over to my friend who I just got into gw2. I never knew that exotic armor sets were so easy to get thanks to Verdant Brink. I used to farm that map daily, but only for the gemstone from the hero's choice chest, so looks like I'll be getting back into doing that meta regularly. Wish I knew all this though before, cus last week I sunk a lot of my gold and mats into making a ascended medium and heavy set of armor for two of my alts😬. Had I known, I definitely would have gone the exotic route instead and saved the mats for a legendary weapon down the line.

    Some bonus tips from a new, but quick-learning player:
    1. Trade the blue prophet shards for green prophet shards and buy the EoD ascended weapons instead of the IBS ones if you need an expansion-locked stat. They trade at 1:1 rate so you won't lose anything
    2. Get the IBS episode with Bjora Marches and do the achievement Idolatry, it will unlock buying ascended accesory (Asgeir's Talisman) for 375 Eternal Ice Shards (you get them REALLY easy, I get 500-1000 each day) and like 60k karma, much cheaper than any other accesory in the game IMO
    3. Don't craft any ascended backpacks, go towards the Ad: Infinitum legendary backpack, you will need to craft an ascended Fractal backpack as part of the achievements anyways, and you can use that one until you finish the legendary one
    4. Try doing the dailies and recs fractals in t4 each day, they drop at least 1 ascended ring/day, saving yourself the pristines, and can come directly attuned or infused so you don't have to use money to attune or infuse it when you will have to
    5. Do harder content from the get-go (and I don't mean strikes or raids, but stuff like Tequatl, Dragonstorm, Drakkar, Triple Trouble and other that have ascended drop rate), at like 0-50% magic find on new accounts you will have a higher drop-rate for ascendeds, like Anet trying to give you a small boost and encouraging you to play more and harder content
    Thanks everyone for reading this and I wish you all a great day and all the best!

    It's easy to be intimidated by the prospect of getting ascended gear, but it doesn't have to be hard! And one of the big reasons why legendary gear is such a good long term goal to work towards, is that for every piece of it you get you *never* have to worry about getting that piece of gear again, which is a lovely bit of QoL ^^

    One thing I will say on the stat selectable trinkets from Fractals/PvP/WvW, the ring is worth it more so than the rest, since that ring is infused already. Infusing rings is also a bit of an investment. Far more than merely attuning. Those slots are very needed in later Fractals.

    I got my first ascended weapon last week via HoT specialization collection (Glint's Bastion for my Herald).
    The steps I had to go through to get the items reminded me a bit of doing the Heavenward relic weapon for Dark Knight in FFXIV; which was more difficult that the previous three expansion relics; and strangely the only one of those I've ever completed.
    *Edit:* I remember why. The Dark Knight lvl 60 finished relic (Cronus Lux) is still the best looking of their relics. So I was motivated purely for it's aesthetic.
    I ended up enjoying this in GW2 overall; although grinding HoT mastery for specific niche abilities (that I probably wouldn't otherwise bother spend time unlocking) wasn't all that fun.
    Still I'll look forward to doing the Renegade collection for this character when I reach PoF probably this summer.

    8:29 this doesn't solve the problem long term if you're running fractals, but "for the purposes of uniqueness, infused and attuned versions of rings count as different items, so if you accidentally buy two identical rings you can upgrade one of them to avoid this limitation." (wiki)

    I used sw sw, by itselff, and I came up with it after seeing the old sw sw bow build and wanting to get rid of the bow.
    i used to really love that build and i have been extremely tempted to bring it back.
    I used to love using it in pvp and pve back in heart of thorns, and god do i miss it sometimes.
    when the guardian brought out its sword sword physical build release during end of dragons?
    i was like "they took my build!!!" lol
    i also experimented with a gun only sniper warrior build based on the seraph traning quest in queensdale,
    and a healing bow warrior build as well for a while.
    the gun build was better for "kill securing"
    and the bow build was a support focused dammage over time aoe build.
    right now i am using berserkers "blademaster warrior build where i use both sw sw and gs focsing on burst damage.
    its good but i still miss experimenting alot.
    oh i almost forgot?
    I don't ever use anything but core base game builds.
    which means that if you are ever curious about a build i have?
    any player type can usually use it.

    u can get a stat selective backpiece if u have all 3 sets of antique armor (berserker stat) they are somewhat expensive but as of today u can get every piece for 1-1.4 gold each (u will have to equip ur chara and prob alts too) so it would get a bit more expensive doing it with this armor but it will save u time and money in getting the backpiece (crafted cost if u take only the ectos is like 20g as of today) so 1.5x18=27g that would cost u to get full berserker armor for light/medium and heavy classes u have (1 set for each category) so it means u would be spending 7g on getting the armor maybe even less cuz those 250 vicious claws, 240 philosophers stone cost a bit too (just checked claws on market are at 19silver eachx250 which means around 48 gold...) so yeah just buy antique armor when gearing at least for the first time every weight class armor u will save a ton of gold on getting ascended backpiece that way

    Small note: you missed the tip that 2 copies of a unique rings can be overlapped if you attune one, and that stat-selection can be reset once per individual ring by attuning it, also.

    One thing about backpiece I would mention: if you can't get ascended, you can get 78 exotic from crafting. It is super easy to do, costs 70s, and exotic 80 vs 78 stat difference is super small, while 80 exotic vs 80 ascended is almost double its stats = skip 80 exotic backpiece. :)

    Sie note, You DO NOT NEED to RE LEVEL Your CRAFTING Skills VIA Multiple Characters,
    once your have MAXed out a Crafting Proffesion on one character, you can usually switch to another Crafting Proffession for ingame gold, and be able to keep your old professions progress while on that cahracter. your progress on each proffesion will be saved based on which chracter you arer playing, so if your warrior is a weapon master and a Armor Master all you have to do is switch one of those professions to another crafting profession and you will be able to keep the progress on both of those crafting professions.

    Celestial gears work just fine for condi builds. Every condi builds inevitably take advantage of all stats that Celestial has to offer. A power increase is a increase to your condi build's DPS too. Not to mention the scaling effects of Utilty items and odd condi builds like Condi Virtuoso proccing a bleed stack based on critical hit, thus synergizing with the precision stat.

    Didn't know this, turns out I had 400 laurels I had no clue how I got them. Went into edge of mist in WvW and just got 2 sets of ascended trinkets. One set for condi build one set for healer

    You never mentioned the jade bot method to obtain trinkets, slot the junk recycler to obtain jade slivers, trade them for season 4 map currency, buy season 4 trinkets. Also eternal ice from strikes/Bjora to season 4 currency and some WvW/PvP reward tracks offer season 3/4 currency too.

    I wish the game did a better job at explaining these things. I returned to the game 2 weeks ago and I was focusing on finishing the base story and reaching lvl 80. Now it's time to gear up and aside from crafting, I was confused about how else to get gear. I didn't even know there was legendary gear in the game now!

    If my math is correct that's about 75 days to get all of the discounted Laurel accessories per spec per character... I'm guessing the other methods are much faster from a calendar days perspective, but take more in-game time.

    if gear never gets better like in most mmos then what happens when a new expansion drops ? do we just get different gear with equal stat amounts or do new expansions just not bring any new gear ? that would seem a bit boring if i never have to level up and upgrade my gear on a new xpac
