Ascended equipment
Ascended equipment refers to equipment of ascended rarity, which consists of level 80 requirement trinkets that are classified as unique.

[edit] Upgrade and infusion slots
- See also: Infusion
All ascended trinkets include an infusion slot instead of the standard upgrade slot found on other equipment; to compensate for the lack of a standard upgrade slot, they have attribute bonuses comparable to a "built in" jewel. The infusion slot allows players to increase a character's agony resistance. However, agony is exclusive to higher levels in Fractals of the Mists, so many players use the slots to increase other stats or to add Magic or Gold Find.

1 One of the ascended back piece is created partially by using two items from BUY-4373 in the Mystic Forge: 1,350 for a Prototype Fractal Capacitor + 500 for a Gift of Ascension
[edit] Notes
- All ascended trinkets are unique, meaning you cannot equip two identical trinkets at the same time.
- ArenaNet has indicated that they intend to introduce ascended armor and weapons at some date in the future.[1]
[edit] Trivia
- In the storyline of Guild Wars, Ascension was a rite that players had to go through in order to gain the Gift of True Sight, which allowed them to see and fight the mursaat. To defend against the Spectral Agony used by the foes, players could infuse their armor, similar to using infusion against the Agony effect of bosses in Fractals of the Mists.
- Ascended Rings and back items were introduced with The Lost Shores and were originally available only in Fractals of the Mists. Amulets were introduced with Flame and Frost: Prelude, and accessories with Flame and Frost: The Gathering Storm.
