I have heard that trial and dungeon jewellery will not be able to be upgraded via the jewellery improvement.
is this true or false?

    Do existing sets drop rings and necklaces with the new Traits?

    No. Existing sets do not drop rings and necklaces with the new Traits. If you want your rings and necklaces from existing sets to have the new Traits, they need to be retraited at a Transmutation Station.

    Items with the new jewelry Traits can only be sourced from specific in-game activities.

    False, you will be able to upgrade existing items.

    You will not be able to *deconstruct* them.

    You will be able to upgrade trials jewellery, though if you are looking to upgrade them to gold, you might as well do the trial on Vet or HM because it will be waaaay easier getting the gold jewellery that way, then trying to upgrade it with the assinine system they have for jewellery crafting.

    This is what i thought and the official site said crafted or looted jewellery can be upgraded.
    I guess it was just hearsay, that a few people in game said that you cannot upgrade dungeon, or trial jewellery.

    You're correct, @Stinkyremy.

    Though upgrading existing jewelry will be a real pain ... due to the number of improvement dusts needed from purple to gold.

    Below is an example of an improved crafted set necklace on PTS:

    Deconstructing Purple rings and getting mats will be faster way to improve Jewlery to purple,

    Improving Jewllery to Gold will remain very difficult

    I believe the disconnect is this;

    If you have the item in your inventory currently when sumerset drops, can you upgrade it vs do i have to farm another alkosh purple ring to be able to upgrade that one.
    Tl;dr really weigh the fun you have in game vs the business practices you are supporting.

    If you already have it: Upgrading works, deconstructing does not...

    The light armor hat is Tsaesci, but the rest of the gear is Sapiarch medium/heavy.

    But only after you earn them again once Summerset drops since you can't deconstruct the ones you have earned over the last couple of years.

    Believe me it will be much easier to join a trials guild and do the trial you want on veteran, than actually upgrade the lower tier jewels. In my opinion only overland and dungeon jewels are worth upgrading but if you get a chance to buy them from the golden vendor, even BETTER.

    It's technically possible, in the same sense that it's technically possible to craft Mythic Aetherial Ambrosia _if_ you find an Aetheric Cipher and _if_ you can find any Aetherial Dust :/

    I'm not new to the game, I have trial jewellery, it was just that a few people in game have said to me that you will not be able to upgraded dungeon and trial jewellery, which I gathered to be false as the official notice didn't mention it would exclude specific jewellery from improvement.
    I just asked here, on the PTS, to get the quite obvious answer, that these people are misinformed.
