Guild Wars 2

I had forgotten just how fail HoT maps were until I decided to go for The Shining Blade.

Can we please stop making Legendary Weapon recipes that require over 100 HoT mastery points. HoT has been out for 2 years now and we still chaining new Legendary Weapons to that mess. Isn’t HoT map completion punishment enough?

Got another 40 mastery points to grind out and I don’t think they are going to be any less garbage pve than map completion of Tangled Depths already was. Or the joke of having to wait for a meta train to even do map completion in Dragon Stand.

solutions,
- reduce mastery rank requirement for the gifts
- remove mastery rank requirement for the gifts
- add an alternative vendor for the mastery gifts
- remove the mastery gifts from legendary weapons going forward

I don’t know if I am making any sense or maybe I am alone.

/end of rant

Or…… and try to stay with me on this……..

An alt gift recipe in PoF

The reason these legendaries require HoT is because they are the HoT Legendaries. They promised us a full cluster of legendaries with HoT and so they are all intrinsically tied to HoT. Until they’ve finished the set no Legendaries should be tied to PoF

They only promised the original 3 to be released with HoT. The rest were to be released with new content as we went along.

But back to the OP.

No. You’ve presented no credible reason for this change. You’ve only stated “I don’t like doing this, so I shouldn’t have to do it for the reward.”

No, they actively promised ALL the new legendaries, then they couldn’t deliver and only gave us 3, they have since been working on delivering the rest. They still did actually promise all of the legendaries with HoT, as such these are all still the HoT legendaries as far as I’m concerned.

I remember differently but lets agree to disagree.

Legendary weapons are for legendary people.
Do you think a legendary person is afraid of a few snot chucking bugs?

Map completion isn’t that difficult on HoT maps with the HP trains. I did it recently in maybe six(?) hours or so but I’m not entirely sure as I wasn’t keeping track. The tradeoff with needing HoT map masteries maxed is that you do not need to do world completion. Masteries are also a one-time thing so subsequent legendaries will be easier to craft.

Legendaries are for end game, HoT content is end game, fits together perfectly. you should be doing legendaries last, and they should require epic journeys of epic proportions, no issues with requiring 100+ mastery points

Yeah, follow an HP train and you’ll get completion quick. They also buffed nodes for gathering the required map-specific materials to show up around major event areas. When I did Nevermore last year it was much more of a grind. Plus, the masteries are a one-time thing and then you can just skip that headache for the next legend you want from the HoT set. Working on The Shining Blade now myself actually. Best of luck!

The bew content is hot content and the gen 2 legendaries are gen 2 legendaries.
