lodjur.1284 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Increase them to 1 hour to match ascended food, or add a 1 hour version or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArchonWing.9480 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 There are some 1 hour versions but it is not for every utility type unfortunately. Maybe it's time for ascended utilities? The stations have been a meme for so long that we ought to have something more practical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean for PvE ye There aren't really any good ones for WvW tho, above 90% stuff isn't amazing there and the other ones are only for the super cheap stuff (that has 1 hour versions) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea. very aware of this. We mostly only have it for the generic superior types but they are not good for most builds. > > > Maybe it's time for ascended utilities?

Well, to me it's more for the extra duration as well as ability to share. Ascended food is affordable enough that people spam it everywhere so everyone benefits. Yes. the extra stats is nice too. But it doesn't have to be ascended; just station versions of all existing utility items would be nice, but it just seems like that's the direction we would go with.

Ascended food is affordable enough that people spam it everywhere so everyone benefits. Yes. the extra stats is nice too. Personally I don't really care about the sharing part as far as util goes as people generally have quite different ones they need, but I am not against it either, more options is always nice But ye 1 hour would be so nice so you dont have to try to remember to two different timers (even if they line up) > But it doesn't have to be ascended; just station versions of all existing utility items would be nice, but it just seems like that's the direction we would go with. I guess we do have the movement speed, 150 toughness and 10% chance on hit for weakness and stuff as far as special effects go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lumikki.1725 Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Why not give game option where you can choose. Eat automaticly same food what you have now eaten, when the timer ends, if more of it exist in bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I guess how much that helps in these cases really varies. I personally prefer Magnanimous w/e just because it's a good way to get rid of t7s and coincidentally happens to be one of the better choices for me anyways. The normal maintenance oil is horrid-- precision for supports? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eloc Freidon.5692 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Wait for Scribe 500. It crafts tomes for the buff so lets see if they come out with ascended ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islyn.8019 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 I think for the level of ingredients you need for EACH food is intense. For example, TWO dough ball for EACH red saobosa - that's 4 stick of butter for ONE item like I'm surprised we're not all dead of heart disease ^^ and also for 30 min? Bad. All buffs should be an hour anyway, tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keenedge.9675 Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Ascended utilities would be a good card up the sleeve for Jewel 500 crafting. Remember, they did give us a FREE method for making utility primers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you mean the flask of utility primer then not really... Otherwise I am very curious as this is the first I heard about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Game of Bones.8975 Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 I have so many consumables I would never get rid of them at 1Hr. I tend to sell them (not on the TP) for a loss just to get some money back. I know it's inefficient, but I need more than one character with maxed crafting professions. I really like the idea of having the option for automatic renewals for the same consumable in your inventory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
