Guild Wars 2

Trying to get a rage weapon to craft a legendary is obscenely impossible right now to anyone but the most dedicated and wealthy pve-er. It has nothing to do with time spent, skill or intelligence anymore. Please consider adding some sort of guaranteed/set recipe for these, even if it costs 100g to craft. At this rate, every rage weapon will be going for at least 500g, and there will only ever be 1-5 available across all the servers, if any.

I’d like an answer of some sort from a mod, before I spend a ridiculous amount of in-game wealth into this. In fact, I’m probably part of the 1% of the playerbase that can ever spend for something like this, and that’s within the next 5-10 years. Sure, I can still obtain these even at their kitten price, but most players cannot, no matter how many months they spend on the game.

I would like to know if you are planning to do something about the ridiculous rarity and price of rage weapons (the exotic weapons used to craft legendaries).

As I’m sure you already know, weapons such as Dawn, Chaos Gun, etc. have risen exponentially in price ever since you guys blocked the karma weapons from being used in the forge to create them.

This has created a more serious problem, which is that most of these weapons go for 200g+ IF they are being sold at all. Usually, less than half of these weapons are available for sale. From what I’ve heard from various wealthy players, getting them from combining 4 rares/exotics in the forge has less than a 1% probability.

This is borderline ridiculous, because this is a Korean-MMO-rng-battle-of-attrition; it no longer has anything to do with how much time/dedication/knowledge you have. It is simply ‘am I lucky enough? probably not’. Some players will never be able to get over 100 gold, let alone obtain one of these, it is simply not within their power, no matter how long they spend playing this game.
