Hallo, I’m trying to get the juggernaut.
I almost have everything i only need to get the colossus
and a couple of silver doubloons.
But now i’m getting so close without having a pre
so my question is where do i get the biggest odds to get it:
A) in the forge
B) boss chests
and if you say B which bosses could give me a chest where it could possebly drop?

That’s like asking whether you have better odds at winning the lottery, or end up dating a fashion model tomorrow.

B.) is definatley out of the question. People have played this game for thousands of hours without even seeing a precursor drop.

A.) Is more viable. But then again you’re subject to RNG. You could spend 10g and get a precursor, or 2000g before you see one. Not a lot of people end up spending less gold in the forge than what precursors are worth.

My suggestion – find an efficient way to make gold. You’ll be able to buy a precursor faster than farming for a precursor.

Yeah I bought mine off the TP. Gambling is a slippery slope, and you’ll soon find yourself throwing away gold. I only gamble with weapon drops, never actually purchase for gambling.

If you actually need your precursor because you want the legendary, only gamble an amount that you are comfortable losing. Unless, you want to spend 400g and then come to the forums telling us about that bad decision you made.

Any chest that has a chance of an Exotic has a precursor on its loot table.

For colossus I’d personally just buy it outright from the TP, just remember to use a buy offer and prices are generally cheaper on weekdays.

My issue is doubloons. They were 40s each and they’ve now jumped to almost 1.5 gold. I know charged lodestones were expensive too, but at least they were easy to farm. Doubloons are quite tough to come by.

I tried parking a lvl 20 at a JP chest, but never receive a silver doubloon.

your character needs to be at least level 21 to get silver doubloons. I have a lvl 21 and a lvl 22 char I’ve parked at the pirate jp in lion’s arch and I seem to get silver doubloons about 25-33% of the time I open a chest.
