Guild Wars 2

another “welfare” legendary request? That’s original…

1)i really dont think Anet thinks they messed up. they are already working on another way to incorporate precursors its been said already that they are also working on other things simultaneously. i dont think they meant this to be anything but a bonus in the meantime for some to get free or a temporary decrease (almost all precursors were, and some are still below half price) til they have fully implemented the new “scavenger hunt” method.
2)you idea is terrible

“The legendary is a wonderful idea. Its only aesthetic but its a sign that the player has truly experienced the world. The issue is, the precursor, on top of the already high gold requirement feels like its a call for people to buy gems rather than experience the world.”
When you say precursor which one specifically because “The Bard” is only 10G.
Also you said that it’s a call for people to buy gems.
Let’s do some math.
If you wanted to purchase one of the “higher-end” precursors such as Dusk.
Lowest listing about 320G
100 Gems = about 1G
4000 Gems = about 40G ($50 value)
320g/40g = 8 purchases of 4000 Gems
$50×8= $400
I don’t think anyone is willing to drop 400 dollars for a precursor.
