Next you need to purchase the Triumphant Hero's ascended armor from the Skirmish Supervisor. Make sure to buy the ascended version, since exotic can't be used as a precursor. Triumphant Hero's Armor cost. Requires Triumphant Armor to be unlocked from reward track; Gloves – 175 WvW Skirmish Claim Ticket, 3 Grandmaster Marks, 250
Crafting them is also something you can do without much money you have to spend (though you need to be level 400), you can also buy them from the TP. Level 78 exotic gear is very close in stats, but costs waaaaay less. Get some of that until you can afford your real level 80 gear, or replace with ascended. The only things you cannot stat swap are trinkets (backpiece, accessories, rings, amulet). Elite specialization collections are great ways to get cheap (around 50 gold, usually) ascended weapons. That's basically what crafting an asc weapon costs. Leveling to 500 isn't that expensive. Posted. The nice thing about acquiring ascended gear via WvW is that it's inexpensive, requiring mostly time rather than gold. Not only can you (slowly) earn the grandmaster marks, but you can also purchase ascended gear with skirmish claim tickets. Finally, there are also random ascended armor/weapon box drops. Ascended trinkets: By far the cheapest way to obtain these are spending tickets and memories of battle at the skirmish supervisor, plus they are statchangeable if you in the future want to swap.Armor: In order to buy ascended armor you will need marks, and these will cost you alot. Don't get too bothered by the name of the gear, name of the stat set is what is important. For example Usoku's Needle here is a berserkers dagger to determine the accessories you can always check the wiki. generaly if you type "ruby orichalchum" into the trading post, berserker trinkets will show up, if you want to play dagger/dagger with power you should go for D/D Deadeye build. Trinkets can be bought or looted but the armor/weps need to be crafted AFAIK. Berserker exotic gear is almost as good and a hell of a lot cheaper to wear in the meantime as you work on crafting. Trinkets its just a matter of picking which set you want. There's no single best answer. 3. Chickenooble. QSNfdPw.
