Guild Wars 2

Come on guys push this topic, don’t give up

Amazing (15chars)

ArenaNet should really see this :/

As I have been reading from many people now, even with the small changes to the super legendary sword Eternity most owners of the sword are quite underwhelmed. Let me tell you I have been playing this game from release, and for me to just finish this weapon and see the exact same look of sunrise and twilight just kinda makes it seem less legendary than having sunrise and twilight separate. Yes the foot falls were nice, but having black fire and black footprints while wielding sunrise in the daytime looks very weird at least for me. I have to say I would expect no less from Anet seeing their fantastic art team to create an entirely original skin for the much neglected Eternity. I mean its name is Eternity for petes sake! That name alone cries out for its own unique look. So what I have done tonight is create my own idea of how I would love Eternity to look. I hope you Devs take a good look at this post and I especially hope they like my idea and use it in the future for Eternity. If you guys like my rendition of Eternity Bump this post and leave comments so that the devs can see and maybe take it into consideration The file is attached to this post, tell me what you guys think

P.S. don’t comment about other legends needing attention, in my opinion all legendary’s are fine, I am only disappointed with Eternity simply because it is the only one of a kind super legendary in the game..you work for 2 which is ALLOT of work and you get what you already had only you are at the beck and call of night and day..to me eternity is a step down from sunrise and twilight in its current state.

I’m bumping this because I’m currently close to making Eternity. And this version is one million times better than the current one!

Very nice art work. Love the combination of the night and day sky with day at the tip and night at the base. Very nice.
However I don’t like the purple. Maybe a combination of white and black with stars and clouds and the sun and the moon?

Over all nice idea and nice piece of art. Personally I think that will all legendaries they should add some customization features effecting the skin. That way everyone can change and tweak their legendaries to fit there style.
I myself am working for twilight(just need dusk and world c now ) and I would very much like some improvements to my legendary waiting for me when I finish it

Eternith deff needs a relooking.

C’mon Anet. It’s the ‘hardest legendary to get yet it’s a bad mix from 2 over representated legendary.

Your artwork are trully amazing man.

Would def go for eternity if it was looking as half decent as your artwork.

This is exactly how i want eternity to look!

bumping this thread for great justice!

OK. That’s pretty kitten looking! Nice work. I’d want to get sunrise to add to my twilight if it looked like that.

I hope devs will look at this and consider doing something similar or pay you and take it because i must say I am truly astonished by your work.

I stumbled upon this thread after reading some information about Eternity on the official wiki — I must say I’m disappointed with it, even after the modifications on 9/3/2013. At the very least, the developer(s) responsible for designing this weapon should consider adding the bursts of light / darkness which occur when drawing sunrise and twilight, their respective throwing animations, and a mystic forge recipe to break it down into its subcomponents should the wielder decide to pursue a new signature appearance.

However, like many of the posters above me, I would prefer an overhaul of Eternity’s coloration to closely match the op’s suggestion (a conglomeration of day and night, though perhaps with slightly less purple). In practice, it should be an item which inspires jealousy amongst players who only possess 1 of the 2 requisite legendary weapons (like me).

Awesome concept. Definitely want this Eternity.

I approve this message.

I think we all have a vision of Eternity being not what we have at the moment. Mine is the same blade switching system that we have at present, but with a handle that stays the same. The handle in the OP’s post is appopriate.

legendary is an amazing weapon. but this this is pure perfection

Nice work, but even if that is Eternity, I doubt anyone cares enough about grinding 24/7 for a few months to be “legendary”, laaame.

This made me drool- it’s gorgeous – Why didn’t Anet think of this?

People should share this threat so anet realises howmany ppl are interested in this design. Maybe they actually will pay attention to this when they see it.

This design is the best! I hope it will get more attention, and even better, added to the game.

I am surprised no staff has answered to this topic yet. Eternity is in urgent need of a redesign, and this proposal is by far, one of the best I’ve seen. If anything, I’d just wish all three greatsword blades were either made longer, or thinner. Right now they look rather “fat”.

It’s nice artwork, but I’m going to be one of those that disagrees with it.

Personally, I like how the sword currently switches form depending on night and day. And I think it should be based on how Sunrise/Twilight looks.

However, I do think the Eternity versions of Sunrise/Twilight should be different. Longer wings on the hilt and a longer blade for example. Perhaps even adding a flamey effect to the blade.

Anyways, it’s a nice picture OP, but no thanks on my end.

Wow, truly amazing, did you draw this? although it would be a good idea maybe people like that it is Sunrise on day and that, But anyways a good idea.

lol

Great idea, sadly anet ignores suggestion forum.

I am just a dawn away from crafting the ultimate greatsword, but the current eternity doesn’t even worth combining the two legendaries. No burst effect when drawn, no trail effect when thrown, etc. Plus, when you have Twilight and Sunrise separately you can switch looks accordingly. I’d rather prefer Sunrise at night and Twilight at day.

OP’s eternity is perfect. Shows both night and day at the same time with unique effect. I wish something like this is implemented soon

My only regret is I can +1 but a single time!

Epic Fan Made Eternity > Official Eternity

amazing, i hope that anet take seriously in consideration this idea

i would definately make an eternity if it was liek this

Yes, please make Eternity more like this!

I already have Sunrise and I recently found Dusk, so I’ve been working on Twilight – but I’m not sure it’s worth the effort for the current Eternity.

Make “legendaries”, LEGENDARY, ANet!
/signed

They need to fix the other legendaries first, Eternity at least got a update recently…..

this sword looks AWESOME! _ i looove the purple and blue, it looks like space and heaven…
especially the space theme fits into the name ‘eternity’
and the purple glimmer too

the night and day thing never really fitted for ‘eternity’ for me :P it just needs it’s own style and your idea looks too good to ignore
also, the light purple, the bat and angel wings and everything else… looks just PERFECT to me!

i really REALLY hope they will change it’s style to yours, it looks amazing

Amazing Skin +1 to this !

I agree with artarius and also like agamedivine’s idea for a night version. I’m almost there to making Twilight, and thought about going for Sunrise eventually, but the incentive to combine them into Eternity just isn’t there. The glowing jewel is nice, and to be honest the first time I saw it I just thought it was an update to Twilight, rather than recognizing it was Eternity. (I hadn’t read the update yet about Eternity). +1 if not more for me. I’d like to add the suggestion that the night and day versions be selectable as to which you want to show. For players that can only play at night, they will hardly ever see the day version and vice versa. Either allow it to be selectable or have it slowly phase change between the two versions every 30 minutes or every hour.

Wow _ And the purple… <3

makethispls

I definitely support this, it’s beautiful. Eternity in its current form is not worth it.

I support the eternity change.

Wooo shinyyyyy o.o

Q: If I use ‘’Transmutation Splitter’’ on Eternity I’ll get: Sunrise, Twilight, 5 Pile of Crystalline Dust and 10 Philosopher’s Stone?

fap fap fap fap is all I can say. Such an amazing concept.

Indeed, it would be marvelous like this.

A really Eternity, amazing in all aspect: day and night in one blade.
Anet need hire this guy :P

Great work! That was my personal idea when I thought about it: meld the two skins together. If this would happen, I’d happily create one. I am still happy with Sunrise though.

This thread has over 16k views already. So this must be popular enough to consider it.

If Eternity would look like this, I would start my Sunrise right now ahah! Beautiful. Simply beautiful!

So this is the point I troll-in and suggest my opinion.
Ethernity. What should it be about? → The constant and ethernal fight between Good and Evil

Witch means, the sword should be designed with half-angel half-demon like. Yes. Split in two, that draws out the border between Heaven and Hell.
And after all, the effect has reason aaaaaand Its really a Legendary piece at least.

nice art! Very cool Idea

Why…. can’t……I……+1 again1!?!!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!??!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?

The guy who designed the actual eternity (even the post patch one) should be worried about his job right now…

Gods of Anet… Hear our plea and hire this guy. Even as a consultant… We wouldn’t have things like Quip and Moot with this guy around.

Don’t think so, tim.

And yes I know he hasnt worked for anet since release, still, this guy was brilliant..

Wow…. this guy has done a lot of my favorite art pieces, the guardian image with his head on the shield, AC ghosts (in the AC dungeon too, really very cool). I’m amazed.
P.S. Cloud, Sunrise and Twilight are the most popular legendary skins and there is a reason for that. Combing both into Eternity was a good idea.

How has nobody seen the inherent problem with his design? Eternity/Twilight/Sunrise are looking glasses into space/sunrise. Is that looking glass going to go away? How would it always be magically anchored in that fashion to show sky on one end and space on the other? It’s a great looking pic, but completely impracticable if we would want to keep the looking glass effect. It would essentially look just like Twilight /most/ of the time.

that greatsword eternity is amazing i really love how you incorporated both sunrise models from the hilt down to the blade. and that purple glow is great ive been going after eternity since October of last year still working on it mind ya. but i really hope the Dev. uses your idea because the new Eternity is well ok but could be remodeled.

well tbh, i prefer the twilight look over the sunrise, so I’m not opposed to it. Just calling out the fact that you would most likely rarely see both the blue and the black. Just like you mostly see black/stars in the twilight and occassionally get some of the other space effects in view.
