Guild Wars 2

First off let me say I really like all the Legendary weapons that are in game now…they are awesome and I will soon have mine.

But is seems like they went a little to “good guy” on most of them.

I think all those “good guy” legendary weapons need a “bad guy” counterpart.

Lets say instead of ponies shooting out of a bow we get fire breathing stallions!

Instead of being surrounded by a rainbow we get surround by crows and as we walk leave behind a trail of black feathers!

And so on…post your ideas!

P.S. Does ANet have plans to do such a thing as I have suggested?

Many people have suggested they have more than 1 legendary available for each type of weapon. One more ‘fun’ style and one more ‘serious’ style like you have mentioned.

I have yet to hear any official word on this issue. I’m sure one day we will see additional legendary weapons. When and what type is completely unknown.

Not that these are at all likely to be implemented, but flexing your imagination is always fun.

Sunrise → Twilight. already implemented.

Rodgort -> Avalon. Shaped like a golden dragon head and more metallic (like howler). Breathes fire much like Rodgort and spawns a single fiery wing on the character’s off-hand shoulder when drawn.

The Juggernaut -> Justice. Liquid gold instead of quicksilver and Atlas is replaced by Lady Justice. Instead of coating your armor, the final attack in the auto-attack chain slams your character’s personality symbol in gold into the ground.

Kudzu -> Rosethorn. Instead of pretty pink flowers, this would have dark roses (with similar particle effects and footsteps) and caws like a crow when drawn.

Meteorlogicus -> Astronomicus. The clouds are replaced by a nebula and instead of an orrery it shows a star being sucked into a black hole. Basically just Meteorlogicus, but more space-themed.

The Moot -> The Torment. Looks like a rusty and really brutal mace, drips blood when drawn. Instead of the confetti effect on hit, your enemy splatters blood with a fitting sound effect. Footsteps are also blood.

Kamohoali’i Kotaki → Echo. Shaped like a dolphin instead of a shark. Because dolphins are awesome.

+1

Gosh nowitsawn, I was expecting to see The Juggernaut → The Magneto or something LOL

But yeah I like your ideas, especially The Torment. I want a nice Mace but a friggin’ Disco Ball ain’t working with a Charr.

Dreamer -> Nightmare Skeleton ponies that leave a trail of green and black smog when shot out. Foot steps would be black and green pools with bony hands popping up.

The moment a darker Legendary staff is added every Necromancer who busted his or her butt to get Bifrost is going to want to follow in Malchor’s footsteps.

I’ve had the idea for a Legendary hammer called Sludge. It’s attack animation would have a trail of black gunk, a splash of tar would splatter from their targets when struck, and the footsteps would be puddles of oil.

I dunno about you, but I don’t see many necros with Bifrost, at least on my server.

I don’t see many of any of the Legendaries outside Twilight and to a lesser extent The Dreamer and Kudzu.

Fort Aspenwood
Most common Legendaries I have seen in both WVWVW & PVE:
(roughly in order)
Twilight
Sunrise
Kudzu
Juggernaut
Dreamer
Moot
Bifrost
all others

Very cool. I really like the idea of a gory Mace.

Might need to change the blood color it order to evade ESRB, but otherwise it sounds awesome!

For the Pistol, I was thinking a Silenced pistol:

I agree that they should have darker and more serious skins but I think they shouldn’t be the inverse of the current skins. Entirely new skins would be a lot more interesting.
As a necro, it’s kind of disappointing that there aren’t really any skins legendary skins that suit me. I’m going for incinerator right now since bifrost and meteorlogicus just look silly with my skills. It’d be sweet if they added a super creepy scepter other than the lidless eye/eye of rodgort.

stop with ponies already

I would definitely invest my time and money on this one, to go along the Twilight I’m currently working on for my ranger.

“Meteorlogicus -> Astronomicus. The clouds are replaced by a nebula and instead of an orrery it shows a star being sucked into a black hole. Basically just Meteorlogicus, but more space-themed.”

^_________________________^ NICE IDEA!

I want a shortbow that shoots ghost crows or owls instead of godkitten ponies.
