Guild Wars 2

I noticed that The Minstrel had had updates to it to add an animation when wielding and also footfalls. I decided to make Rodgort as I like using the torch instead of focus on my Guardian.

I was fairly disappointed in the appearance of Rodgort. There’s no aura, no wield animation and the footfalls are very shortlived.

I also made The Dreamer which I absolutely LOVE! Not only does it have very long lasting footfalls, they’re rainbow horseshoes AND the projectiles are unicorns! The Dreamer is VERY noticeable when you own one even if you don’t even have it wielded. I want that for Rodgort as I worked as hard on it as I did The Dreamer.

My biggest wish would be that my Charr Guardian could wield this fabulous shortbow, but alas I must wait for a less leafy longbow legendary.

Here’s hoping Rodgort effects get a makeover.

I’d be very wary of any changes to Rodgort. It is a beautiful weapon – one of the best looking legendaries I have and the track record on “improvements” to legendaries has been wildy hit and miss. I don’t mind a small tweak maybe to footsteps, but I’d worry about going ahead with any significant makeover since it pretty spot on right now.

My point is, nobody can tell that I even have a legendary, but you see things like Nevermore and The Dreamer which you can’t avoid knowing. Even with Quip, just the sound effect is noticeable. Minstrel’s improvements were quite nice, I noticed someone with one just yesterday.
