Guild Wars 2

I chose The Minstrel because its bird design fits the name of my character: Mockingbird

The only other effect it has (aside from the floating, hardly visible music notes) is that when you draw your weapon or swap into it, a harp plays . I know this particular legendary deserves a graphical upgrade the most (It’s the worst by most people’s standards), but even if they just add music into every step or change how my skills ‘sound’ or something, I’ll be very happy. I really really like the bird. I hope they improve on it soon. XD

Grats!

yeah go mockingbird!

ArenaNet should add a special, Minstrel-exclusive emote (with some kind of cooldown) in which the character begins playing the harp, the music notes become considerably more noticeable, and a special music begins playing (either the Minstrel theme, or something more serious like a harp version of Fear Not This Night). Making it something similar to the permanent winter bells would work, too. ArenaNet needs to be more creative about ways to make Legendaries truly legendary.

gz.

after some time that ‘sound’ minstrel makes, gets very annoying. e.g. harvesting food node farms.. ding ding ding…

btw those music notes are slightly more visible when in combat, tho then you cannot see them through all other effects

Haha yea the sound does get annoying. It’s what I do to troll in LA since we don’t have any other effects aside from it to show off.

Actually I could’ve just as easily made a bolt (i do have the precursor for it) but I really want a weapon that has a bird design. Im also positive that it will get improved by Anet so I regret nothing. Im very happy with my Minstrel XD

Grats, it actually looks pretty good on your character!

Its beautiful !!

Grats. Now you need to change your characters colours to match it.

Thanks guys! I really like how the concept of the minstrel makes my mockingbird “sing” since it’s musically themed.

Best suggestion ever. I’d love to play it in wvw while our zerg bashes on our enemy’s gate or something.; elevating troop morale on the battlefield. :O (I don’t care if they get angry at me for playing music instead of casting timewarp)

I’m a mesmer though, I think green and purple would clash. :/ Plus white+purple is our official guild colors in Team Shatter (unless our guild master, The Illusion changes his mind again – which he does every second shh it’s a secret XD)

Hey Leo, I rekon it looks cool, good work.. What sword is that in your picture?

I believe he is using the wintersday gem store sword skin.

How’s this for matching colors? XD Haha any suggestions as to what hair color will suit it well?

Yep it’s the wintersday gem store skin!

Love those colors! They match with the minstrel much better.

Thanks I might keep the colors afterall. I’m having a slight issue with the hair color though. It’s purple at the moment.. Hmm if I make her blonde do you think it will match better? XD

Actually I kind of like it the way it is
