Guild Wars 2

i think most of you guys allready watched lengendary weapon videao, SUNRISE, BOLT, TWLIGHT ETC….

TWLIGHT>SUNRISE>REST>DAGGER, i think so.

but thats fine, i am theif, so i only want to carft dagger, here we go, i got almost things ready…..but today i found if you want to make VIAL OF LIQUID FLAME, u have to spend more than 200 GOLD, for JUST VIAL OF LIQUID FLAME!!! wt…

Other lengendary weapon gift are so much cheaper!! check it out for TWLIGHT.. only need 30 for gift ?

and, twlight is two hand sword, dagger is either hand, means theif have to make two daggers !!!

Would someone please translate this?

I think he’s talking about Incinerator: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Incinerator

And comparing that to Twilight: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Twilight

OP, the intention is (not only this MMO, but others too) that the player shouldn’t just be wielding one single dagger on its own, but to be wielding a dagger + off hand (whatever that might be) to equal the stats that would be gained wielding a 2 handed weapon instead. Notice that the stats of Incinerator are half that of Twilight (it’s like that for a reason).

Op, when you refer to 200gold, are you referring to the cost to buy the Vial on the Trading post? Because from what I can see, the ingredients to make the Vial (via the mystic forge) are all farmable. So I’m wondering where you have gotten the price of 200g from.

Vial of Liquid Flame =

250 Ghost Pepper
100 Molten Lodestone
100 Destroyer Lodestone
1 Gift of Baelfire

Gift of Baelfire = 500 Flame Legion Charr Carvings

You can’t blame Anet if players put items on the TP for large amounts.

He is saying the components, and their rarity (thus their price), is not remotely comparable, for a 1 handed item vs 2. They should have definitely taken this into consideration…

What he means is Destroyer Lodestone’s right now are over 1g 40s a pop and you need 100 of them. I have ran SE a lot and rarely see one or a core for that matter. Sure it’s farmable if you want to do SE let’s see. About a core per 2 or 3 runs. For this let’s say 2.
400 times you would have to run it? That is what he is getting at the cost compared to other gifts.

Well, if you guys are correct, then the OP is talking about 2 issues here:

1) The drop rates of ingredients required to make the legendaries and how those drop rates affect the percieved “value” of the ingredients.
2) The amount they are being sold on the TP.

Whilst Anet have a measure of control on the quantities required and the drop rates of items, have less control over how much someone would try to sell the ingredients for on the TP. Sure drops rates are a factor in that, but people may still try to sell them for a higher price than what is percieved to be acceptable.

The bottom line is the drop rates on the rare ingredients, should not be 1 out of 999999999 to aquire, but they are. Solution: switch the rare ingredient with the vendor trash loot from Vets or champion bosses. No Vet or champ should ever drop vendor trash, period but most do.
