Can we get an update on New Legendaries?
Seeing as how today’s blogpost doesn’t indicate anything about new legendaries, I really must wonder what happened to the plan.
I don’t think it is coming.. the topics of the still locked blog posts do not indicate legendaries, and the coming patch is a “feature” patch, not new legendaries at this moment.
Eternity, The Juggernaut, Kudzu…
Given how the precursor crafting has been held off, I can’t see them introducing new Legendaries at the moment.
Time is a river.
The door is ajar.
Yeah i’m beginning to think that maybe they scraped the plan for new legendary weapons all together. We haven’t heard anything about them since they were delayed back in December. I assume they ran into some sort of technical problem or something.
It would be nice to have an update. I know I and a dozen or so of my guild members have all been holding out for the new legendary drop. Slowly 1 by 1 they have been giving up and making current weapons though.
Vol you have money to buy 30 legendaries. Of all people, you surprise me the most with this question. Stop uproaring the market of precursors. Don’t think we can’t see your little game to resell precursors.
And if you didn’t read forums, about 1-3 weeks ago, someone of Anet specifically said, legendaries are postponed (they are ‘currently not a priority’). Why would they lie then? Don’t think they would.
No excuse anymore for not giving ‘hide mounts’-option
No thanks to unidentified weapons.
Answer: No.

See this is making me really wonder..
New legendaries shouldn’t be a technical problem since they are just skins. The art team just needs time to design all of them, and so far they’ve had 9-10 months to design, 6 months originally.
So if there has been a technical issue that is holding new legendaries back, it could be possible that these legendaries will require a new set of components to craft that, just like the precursor crafting/scavenger hunt, will be based more on reward/accomplishments than gold.

Oh I’m definitely not that rich – at least I don’t have the liquidity to do that. I envy people like this guy:

precursor investment is a risky one, so there’s nothing in it for me.
I’m just genuinely interested in new legendaries because they are end-game to me.
Do you remember who made that post? I check here every weekday and may have missed it.

I imagine since they were upgraded to ascended quality that the new ones will take some sort of ascended gift, possibly taking vision crystals, and other ascended mats. Or possibly even the corresponding ascended weapon as one of the components.
I took a gamble and I think they will probably keep the gift of mastery and gift of fortune, since those take a lot of work and aren’t RNG. I think the precursor and weapon gift will probably be updated to fit their updated reward model, which is probably what is taking so long.
Regarding your PM Phoebe, I’m not sure why you are so angry and obsessed with me. I seem to attract a lot of fans :/
Given the current RnG based drops for Pre cursors, I could only imagine the uproar if they made more legendaries ingame with pre cursors that people will never see even after 2000+ hours of game play.
As for the pic you linked, I was looking at it thinking 1400g isn’t that much really, totally did not pay attention to the persons storage.
I already told you before that you shouldnt hold your breath for new legendaries, and when they are coming they will most likely require completly new recipes, such as the new ascended materials anet introduced.
They gave an update not too long ago saying:
“We have been so focused on improving existing reward systems that we haven’t really been working on the new legendaries or earned precursor system.
You’ll hear something when we’re ready to announce it.”
aka give up hope on new legendaries BEFORE an expansion.
