3:23 Warning! Do not stat swap your WVW ascended armor if you intend to use it as a precursor for your Legendary WvW armor. Stat swapping in the Mystic Forge wipes precursor status.
Thanks for this video! I'm actually in the process of getting Ascended armor and weapons. As always, Awesome job explaining the detail and intricacy of how to obtain these armor and weapons!!

Do you have a video of all the different stats for each type of ascended? Like some will have the name of a character but I dont know what stats come with it.
Ascended you can easily get by crafting but requires bit a gold gold if you haven’t reach 500 in crafting. WvW can easily get ascended gear, weapons by set your reward tracks to triumphant armor and hero weapon track,have to repeat 6 times to grab all the exotic versions to grab the ascended version by the skirmish vendor by playing the game. You can easily get this track over by using any boosters. I can’t say for PvP since I don’t play it as much. For me WvW is the best for me and much faster to get ascended while having fun at the same time.
Probably the best tip you have given to new players working on their first ascended gear set is to do the trinkets first. Best stat increase overall. And work on the armors last unless of course you have the opportunity to acquire them quickly like from the Wizard's Vault.
I'm doing mine so backwards. Managed to get an Ascended hammer drop for my ranger. Started buying Wizard's Vault Ascended boxes so got my bow then half the armor set. Waiting on reset for the other armor pieces I need. I have 2 builds though so I need a 2nd Ascended set of armor 😅
Nice video, it may be worth mentioning that the Ascended Armor/Weapon boxes are limited to certain stats. For instance, you can't get a Viper's set from those boxes because it's a newer stat combo.
Ok this is important for me to just check, I just levelled to 500 crafting, and watched this video thinking I missed a trick as I mostly play pvp. So 100% you can’t get viper set from the ascended armour box?
I craft the main set, underwater breather + weapons like always, but now I really struggle with those laurels to buy the offset pieces I really needs. Btw trinkets is not really fitting thing because the offset pieces has no use effect.
While i understand the point of such a video is to be helpful and highlight "easy button," it's nice you do go into how Ascended gear can be crafted but you don't mention you have to acquire those recipe's to craft them. i would highlight Silverwastes, Dry Top, and once a day each End of Dragons map meta completion.
Ascended gear drops in higher fractals, but you need ascended gear to complete said fractals, so once you don't need ascended anymore you start getting lots of ascended, anyone else see how stupid this is?
To be honest. This game makes it so hard for new players to like it. Why not giving one balanced set, when reaching 80? I just want to have fun when work is done. I don't want to achive a gw2-master-degree. In Germany we say "kotz" to describe the emotions I get from this. But your video is nice and infomative.

You got it!
Thanks. This will be a huge help for me acquiring ascended gears.
You got it bro!
Genuinely took the edge off of getting my first ascended gear, thanks for simplifying it for us! ❤️
Happy to help!
you forgot to tell about rings and backpack, thet they can be infused and atumed for more infusion slots. it's very importent to do fractals for thet
Thanks for the comment! I didn't forget, I'm going to go into that in detail in an upcoming fractal guide👍
Rings from wvw and pvp vendors are already infused, you can do without fractals.
Thank you! Thats a good summarize
You're Welcome!

How much does it cost roughly if you do have 500?

Accessories > weapons > armor

if you infuse the rings you can use the same ring twice
after beating my first world boss i got an ascended gear chest. I was dissapointed when i found out it didn't drop every single time lol
Yeah, would be nice lol
thanks for sharing :)

@@ivladikar3957 Not directly, but you can change the stats of whatever you pick via the mystic forge.
I craft the main set, underwater breather + weapons like always, but now I really struggle with those laurels to buy the offset pieces I really needs. Btw trinkets is not really fitting thing because the offset pieces has no use effect.
Best Gear Guide!
Glad you enjoyed!
Honesty crafting is the cheapest, fastest, and least fun way to get weapons and armor.
I feel like there are few things that are all three things at the same time.

It just like money well invested. Takes a lot to get it going.
