Guild Wars 2

Ok so… I was maybe hoping we would see some news on legendaries being account bound or atleast fixing the bug with them in the blog post, but noooo! Anet are creating new ones instead of fixing the old ones first.

Anet, this is kind of driving me crazy. First of, the effects on the legendaries bugs out like 80% of the time.

And we want to use them across all our characters. It SHOULD be account bound and not soulbound. also.. GET THEM OF THE TP!

Im guessing Anet wont fix this because noone at Anet has a legendary, because if you had you know know how annoying it is, when the effects bugs out ALL THE TIME and when you can’t use it on your alts

Actually I have 3 and I see no reason why it should be account bound.

Yeah, it would be nice but I’m not going to complain about it. It’s a non-issue for me.

I have 2 and account bound would be NICE. But I won’t complain much about that either.

Now, polishing the current ones before creating new ones…. that is something that SHOULD be done. About half of the current legendaries need some more polishing.

There are event back pieces with nicer effects than some current legendaries.

I agree that they should be accountbound simply because of how much effort goes into making one. It makes no sense to bind it to one character when many of us use multiple characters to make one.

I also second getting them off the trading post. There’s nothing legendary about buying a legendary. I will make one exception to this. If they were placed in the gemstore for like $250 a piece and account bound, I would give anet the evil eye but then turn a blind eye to it. If someone has that much disposable income and decide to use it all on a virtual item, that’s their business and they can pretty much do it already.

Your all right, it should be account bound yea, but its not the biggest problem. They should FIX THEM… Fix the effects, or just remove them, since they wont show up anyways

bump I def. would prefer them to be account bound, as an altaholic I never know which will be my “main” and I dont see the point grinding for a legendary for a character I wont use it for.

I see the change to account bound as a way to open up a whole new part of playing called legendary hunters. I have three atm, spread over two characters and if these were account bound I def. would play more with the intent of getting as many as possible.

I 100% agree with this suggestion and was hoping to see it in the future plans also. Both of my legendaries are on my mesmer and for that reason I have no desire to play any of my other 4 level 80 alts, and now I have no desire to level any more alts. Since I’ve spent over 2k gold and put in hundreds of hours farming these legendaries, I have no desire to look at anything less while I play. The legendaries I have are the only two I like, and I feel it would be such a waste to create the same legendaries again just so I can have them on multiple characters.

Also, my auras bug out in combat over 50% of the time. It’s really disappointing. And Bolt still duplicates itself on every swing. I can’t understand why there is work being put into new legendaries when the current ones are still bugged.

^ This!! all this! I have a 80 thief and 80 necro. I incinerator on my necro, and i wont play on my thief anymore since i spent 7 months grinding for it. Also, the effects are always bugging out.

I think we should keep this thread alive until Anet sees it… Its a big problem for everyone that has one
