Learn How to Craft Your Legendary Weapon!
Also, Let me Know how it turned out!…could use some feedback for future reference.
Could you post the highlights in text please. Some of us cannot check Youtube while at work. Thanks in advance.
Blah blah it isn’t problem to craft legendary…The problem is..gold. And if you haven’t bought millions of cheap items at start of game, or you haven’t exploited – it will take looooooong time to obtain legendary.

You mean, What the Video is about in Detail…Or What Im saying in Text as a List of Materials.
I Need Opinions if This Actually Helps…
I didn’t find the video all that insightful and somewhat poorly constructed.
I welcome the effort but I think you should have gone about it a bit differently. You start straight off with the Mats and some random, unexplained items although an uninformed player won’t know what these even mean or what they are for.
It just makes everything seem more confusing than it really is.
I would have preferred if you simply said:
1. This is Twilight, it is a Legendary weapon.
2. It is crafted in the Mystic Forge by combining 3 so called Gits + a so called Precursor weapon (and then explain briefly what a Prec. is and how it can be obtained).
3. Then you go through each Gilt individually and break it down into it’s components. Ideally you would have some sort of graph you could always fall back on to keep everything in perspective.
4. Stuff like Bloodstones and Obsidian Shard etc. should probably be shown in game as well because not everyone knows what they are and where to get them.
I drew a simple tree-diagram for my Legendary and it puts things into perspective well without being overwhelming.

I didn’t watch the whole video as I already know what is needed, I was just curious what you created and since you asked for feedback:
Almost the entire 12 minutes was your CGI graph. A better guide would be using in-game footage, show the recipes, show where to farm karma (can easily highlight the Plinx karma train anytime of day).
I was expecting you to do a Clover combine. Some players might think clovers are a scary concept. I’m at like a ~40% success rate on clovers using the 1x recipe. You could have done a few combines to give an idea.
You could have shown the bloodstone shard on miyani and the gift of ascalon/battle/whatever from those respective vendors. You could show where Obsidian shards are purchased and for how much.
You could have thrown in a few CKS to try for a precursor.
Regarding the CGI graph: It wasn’t legible. The lens flare combined with the extruding made it annoying to look at. It looks like you used Maya or something whereas you probably could have churned out something much more appealing simply from Photoshop.
The Graph didn’t present the information any better than the online wikis. All information was presented in a large blob of text. You could have had layers that turned on (faded in) as you began speaking about the particular section. (ie: don’t show mystic clover recipes until you begin talking about them) As it stands, my eyes were wandering all over the screen and not focused.
Narration: Sounded like you weren’t very confident in what you were saying. I assume you took all your information from wikis and didn’t research further? I skipped mostly everything except the clover part since that is where there was some in-game footage, and you said stuff like:
1.) “These recipes were taken off the wiki.”
Saying this admits you are not an authority on the matter and we’re better off viewing the wiki, since that is all you’re doing.
2.) "Philosopher stones, as I believe, take skillpoints. "
You “believe”, or you “know”? Just browse Miyani and you can see the Philo stones are sold from her, easy to show in the video, and now you can be absolutely sure.
3.) “The 10x recipe has a lesser chance of clovers”.
This is not true. Both recipes are about a 33% chance average. It is simply higher risk using the 10x since you will have less “chances”. 3 chances on the 10X recipe takes 30 of each material, but you should get at least 10 clovers out of it. 3 chances with the 1x recipe takes 3 of each material and you should get at least 1 clover out of it. The chances are the exact same. What you could have said is that it is more desirable to do the 1x recipe since you will not be affected as harshly from a string of bad luck.
a gold/skillpoint estimation is what I’d like to know, if you were to buy everything.
My friend and I did this before. This is a rough estimation but Twilight will cost around 770g (assuming everything was bought, give or take a few gold for market fluctuation), quip is at around 550g and flameseeker is at around 600~ (due to price increase of The Chosen.)
Thanks for the Feedback!… Its always good to have good and bad, for improvement…
I hope it Helped Some people…at least… But I will Take all Feedback to get better.
