Guild Wars 2

So I plan on getting medium weight legendary armor. My question is, for the first precursor, do we need to pick the weigh that we want to make legendary? So, will the first pre be needed to make the 2nd pre? I ask because I have ascended armor for heavy and medium and none for light. So I was wondering if I could get the light armor from envoy armor box but still be able to craft medium weight legendary armor.

Not required. Pick whatever you want from the first box.

The second collection lets you pick the precursor armour (that’s where the weight will matter). You also get recipes to craft all three weights of the precursor armour for Envoy II, so even that choice doesn’t lock you in.

Technically, the only way you’ll “need” the experimental envoy armour for the legendary armour is balls of dark energy (for cubes of stabilized dark energy), but you can get those by salvaging any armour/weapons. Experimental envoy armour is yours to keep.

Ah ok. And about the recepies, so they’ll give me recepies to make the experimental envoy armor? Totally forgot i wanted the skin for the medium set. kitten , I don’t want 2 medium ascended armor sets #FirstWorldProbs
Edit: Ah nvm. Unlocking the Refined armor also unlocks the experimental armor.

You get recipes for making the Refined Envoy armour (precursor). Unlocking the skin for Refined Envoy automatically unlocks the Experimental equivalent (just the skin).

Eg. craft Refined medium armour -> unlock medium Refined armour skin -> auto unlock Experimental medium armour skin.
