And oh yea, was super pissed off after they promised to fix ranger and after 3 months not a proper fix in sight.
Ascended gear is for the people from themeparks who NEED a gear grind. There's a picture showing the difference between exotic and ascended shoulderpads, it's 1 stat point on two different stats. It won't change the outcome of any fight but for people who "need" best in slot gear there is something for them to work towards.
