Guild Wars 2

Since they have revealed that we would be able to craft our way to 500 to obtain the rest of our ascended items, has the thought ever struck you that it would be real neat if we could;

Craft an ascended greatsword; namely Caladhog with cooking? I cannot really see what cooking would give us at 500 unless it is gonna be beefier food or food that gives us agony resistance. Then it doesn’t really have to be ascended either, just get available as a skin, really nice if through cooking

It uses the Norn greatsword, so there we have one ingredient off already, wouldn’t it be something if we could swing this around?

I mean, look at this thing, feast your eyes upon this beauty

Could be you craft an item with Cooking then use it with Weaponsmithing to make Caladhog.

Plus, that item is just a Norn Greatsword + Roasted Pig.

I don’t think that’s Kosher….

I don’t think it should be available. It’s a unique weapon grown by the Pale Tree and wielded only with her approval, and it comes with its own skillset that makes it very much not a normal greatsword.

I’d be annoyed to see a thousand wannabe-Caladbolgs, especially in non-sylvari hands. It would also be annoying to have a sylvari who used the real thing in the personal story but is unable to wield the crafted version because that character’s class can’t use normal greatsword.

Calad*HOG*, not Cala*BOLG*, that’s the whole joke.
