Guild Wars 2

I crafted Sunrise on my guardian almost a year ago. This past summer, however, i started playing my thief and fell in love with it. I crafted it a Dreamer and do everything on it. My Sunrise is just wasting away on my guardian right now (I know i could use both on a ranger but i don’t really enjoy playing ranger).

Since this summer i have earned quite a bit of gold, as well as most of the other requirements for a third legendary. However, since something cannot lose its soulbound-ness (?) one of my friends gave me the idea of crafting a Twilight, forging an Eternity and selling it so i could just buy quip and have some gold left over.

So, here are my questions to you lovely people:
1.) I am pretty sure Eternity comes out Soulbound on Equip no matter the state of the two Greatswords…correct?
2.) If I were to do this (which i am able to as of right now), does Eternity actually sell? I’ve seen sell orders go away every now and then but i can’t be sure if people are buying it or if the sellers are removing it. Do people actually straight up buy legendaries or do they only place buy orders? Will I have to place a sell order (which would probably be too low of a price for me to be worth it)?

TL;DR: Do people actually buy legendaries, especially Eternity? Are there people out there rich and willing enough?!

Highest buy offer is 3680g according to spidy, and I am sure there are plenty flippers out there happy to take it off your hand.

ps. Just observation from tp(after several big purchase), the “real” value of very expensive items is actually slightly below the highest buy offer, since listing buy offer doesn’t cost anything. Keep that in mind when buying your quip.

I agree with LastShot.
Sorry I can’t answer the question about Eternity. I wish I had the precursors to make it.
One thing to keep in mind is that lister loses a lot of gold to list something so expensive and not have it sell. That means that some of the legendaries that are for sale are ‘hidden’ and actually sitting in our bank and not on TP because of the listing fees. I just sold a Frenzy. When a buy offer got close (within 100) of what I was willing to sell for I put it up for sale (in between our difference) and it sold pretty quick.

Eternity does not become soulbound on equip if you have any of the two originals soulbound.

Apparently people do buy legendaries nowadays, and it has become quite profitable to sell now that karma is extremely difficult to come by.

I reckon the players who purchase legendaries are largely gold/item sellers.

OP had a very good question.
sad that Vol burst that bubble.
looking at spidy for the past month, it looks like 10 Eternities that were listed as sell listings were taken off the TP. Most likely these represent 10 sales of Eternity, but it’s possible the lister took it off themself. buy orders looks like 6 were fulfilled, though it’s much more likely those were just people placing a buy order then canceling it a few minutes later.
yes, legendariers do sell if prices fairly.
:*( I just checked the status of my Dreamer for sale. looks like 2 people have undercut me since I listed it 2 days ago, and both have sold quickly. mine will take longer to sell.
