Guild Wars 2

Are we getting more at any point? I mean there are 3 Greatswords but only one of all the others and some just put me off..I’m a fan of maces but the moot? felt like a slap in the face. Some just feel like gimmicky weapons rather than legendary weapons.

I’d like more choices, would you?

At this point of 2 years, I do believe it’s time to get more options. I already have the legendaries I want. So, what’s next?

P.S.
Also JC to 500 and legendary accessories that can be seen and be able to change stats.

I agree! I wanted to craft a legendary mace first, but when i saw Moot I changed my mind completely, I want something thats not a joke?

Gw2 seems to be very monotonous when it comes to gear skins/weapons. There is not that much to choose from in my opinion. I think there needs to be other gear/weapons that are from rewards. For example there is a ranking system for PvP but you get absolutely nothing from it, I feel there should be a special gear designed for the top PvP players. Same goes for dungeon gear, there should be dungeons that are extremely hard for the hardcore PvE players. And then of course more variety on Legendary weapons.

Are we getting more at any point?

Yes. They talked about it a while ago, saying that they would likely start with the less serious legendaries, as in Quip. Later on, they talked about adding more legendary equipment and would likely start with accessories.

When the WvW test server was up this was data mined and people thought it may be one of the new legendaries.

We are getting them by the end of 2013.

Must have been a typo.

Yes it was 3012 originally.

prety sure we where promised new legendary skins at some point going back about a year ago
just like we where promised a way to craft/quest for precurssors ……….yeah still waiting

I would love for them to introduce new legendaries. I wouldn’t really mind making a legendary (it’s a gold sink and something to work towards for a long time) but none of the current ones really do it for me.

Imo, we need more legendaries that look like they “belong” in the game instead of tacky, gimmicky things. Something that looks powerful or elegant… not more things that shoot unicorns and sparkly lights or turn you into a walking, talking disco. I realise that some people like these sorts of legendaries, but at least give us a bit of diversity.

There have been some changes which have made obtaining legendaries today harder to get compared to before:
-Karma nerfed
-Drops nerfed
-Gift of Battle requires extra effort
-Prices of many items including precursor have more than tripled

Many people are walking around in easymode legendaries,So in my opinion adding new legendaries is a good idea.

I managed to fashion my legendary greatsword by the first anniversary of the game. I would love to see more legendary weapons. Armor and accessories of legendary status. After putting time, experience, and money. I would have liked to see parts of bosses in the meta- events. It would have been alot neater to takes pieces to create a part of legendary weapon.

Actually it was in September of 2012 that they first said they were working on the precursor scavenger hunt. Interestingly enough the posts that talked about it mysteriously disappeared from the forum at some point.

A few months later they said nope, just kidding we’re not actually working on a scavenger hunt. But they did politely inform us that “we are monitoring the situation”. Whatever that means.

Then in the infamous Second Half of 2013 blog post that was in July they said they were working on it again. Which is funny because all the major stuff they talked about in that blog post, the stuff people were most interested in didn’t happen.

And here we are and it’s almost 2015. Anet sure does take their time.

oh yeah they did work on a way to earn a precursor for the Asian market but not us even tho we have been promised it long before they even considered marketing the game to the Asian market
to me its like Anet don’t give a kitten about its existing player base but they will give away precursors to entice a new player base
face it guys Anet don’t care what you think, so long as you play you will always come last on there list of priority’s

Yeah some new legendary weapons would be great right about now.

It’s been a long time coming.

Another question would be – how did so many “joke” legendary weapons make it into the game in the first place?

The Moot.
Quip.
The Dreamer.

How did these things even qualify for legendary status? They look and feel like a joke – completely out of theme with the game and simply experience breaking.

I think they thought “for the funs!”!

But yeah, if you think about them they’re kinda experience breaking.

LOL I don’t even have one yet.

this game is a typo :\
seriously, i’m lucky to have had absolutely no interest in legendaries.. i feel sorry for people who sunk time into them, but the sad truth is it was a failed game feature.. other weapons are starting to get flashier, and there is only so much arena net can do to make legendaries appealing.. this should have been foreseeable..

i’m reminded of my favorite anime, where at the end of a long confrontation, the hero chooses to destroy the prize rather than implement it.. the villain calls him foolish , but the hero explains it simply as the benefits in no way outshine the negative..

it’s sad, but there are so many things in this game that i see as a fools errand and wasted development.. i’m really hoping things will turn around soon

Talking about Fate/Zero? It’s my fav anime as well if you didn’t mean F/Z here’s a recommendation for you XD

There should be a Megaman shooting arms as a pistol option! Mega Blast yeah!

Valento.9852:

Why don’t we have a really small scepter that shouts ‘Hadoken!’ on auto attacks?
Or a war horn where every time you use a signet, it shows Colin’s face instead of the signet’s mark?

Cringey as you can get them!

Dear god, don’t give them any ideas!!!!

I’d love more references to Castlevania series, such as Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

^ no no no, we need a reference to Simon’s Quest.

So every 5 mins, the item would give you a 10 sec stun, and a huge textbox with nonsensical garbage would slowly scroll across your screen. It’s perfect.

I hope they add lege armor and trinkets before new weapons

- new legendaries
- precursor crafting
- ‘adding regularly new skills and traits’
- two-week release schedule

ROFL, no wonder the players run away form this game in hordes.

Well, we had ummm 2 healing skills and 1 new trait in each line since. That’s regular I guess, I think?

Yea, I myself have poured in around 700 g in 3 months trying to get a gs precursor but failed. I knew I should of just saved the gold but aye life is full of risks.

Do watch unlimited blade works. The second route to fate stay night. Not a remake, as many mistake it for. Same studio that did F/Z.

Some new legendaries would be great.

You also forgot they added a new mini for us all, which comes 1 every 57,800 ToT bags.

I get the feeling you’re not excited! No idea why! Have you seen our new “Reaper of Souls” (!) dagger skin?? See attached (“WoW!.jpg”) – THE NEW LEGENDARY DAGGER!

I personally hope they don’t add new legendaries, unless it’s for new weapon classes that get introduced. I believe one per weapon class is good (even though greatsword has more than one, but meh).

What I would like to see is the option to customize our legendaries to some degree to suit our character’s look or theme. For example, being able to change incinerator’s flame to a blue flame, or a wind blade, or even black flames, etc. Or changing Sunrise’s or Twilight’s sky reflections in the sword to other sky types related to day or night settings respectively, etc Being able to customize footfalls or auras (as well as turning them on or off) would be cool as well.

At least then even if two people have the same legendaries, they can still look different and you wouldn’t have to craft an entirely new legendary just to get a different look.

I think we should get new weapon types and legendary version of them, and new skins for current weapons.

There’s no reason why there shouldn’t be more choice in a game that’s all about aesthetics. Especially since some weapons have goofy skins that are incredibly tacky. I’d like to hear their reasoning on making those ones that way with no other options from the start.

i am the bone of my stave
i have withstood pain to fight dragon corruption
and crafted many ascendeds
yet, my hands will not hold legendaries
i pray to the spirits, unlimited cake-gun

i own the old fate/stay and bladeworks series.. and ordered a typemoon figurine
castlevania is great, spiked flail would be a great weapon.. probably more of a necromancer thing though, elementalist could use a bo-staff.. rockman’s blaster? i’ll take samus’ varia suit thnkuvrymuch

back in january it was still possible to grind out a legendary, but sadly i just don’t see it these days.. i have no trouble getting a reasonable amount of gold in this game either.. some people don’t like gear treadmill, but i enjoyed making my ascendeds.. if they work harder on balancing the professions i’d totally go for another round of that

Some of us enjoy them. Personally, the goofy ones are my favorite ones. I would love to have Quip more than anything, it’s my favorite legendary. Although I totally understand how people could hate them, I find them fun and amusing. Most people seem to love Eternity, Sunrise, Twilight and The Bifrost, but I find them all very plain and boring.. They’re just shiney with colourful footfalls, doesn’t interest me.. But Quip makes goofy noises and has a nice purple aura and The Dreamer shoots freaking ponies. Idk I find that better personally :P.

nothing like getting killed by a flying unicorn with rainbows coming out its but :P

Now they will take money for things that they promised us in 2013. I’m losing my faith in this game day by day.

Maybe time move on to Black Dessert..

Yup, pretty sure I remember hearing that a new set of legendaries was coming soon like 2 years ago. No faith in this game or the devs anymore.

you’re of course assuming that after they take your money they will actually provide you with those new legendaries…

It has already been downgraded from “new set of legendary weapons” to “a few new legendary weapons with more maybe coming later some point in the future”

I recently heard that we are only getting 3 new weapons at HoT launch now.

I suspect that it will be “we wanted to get the content out to you sooner so we have delayed the release of these weapons” in another month or so.

Then in 2018 we’ll get another blog post promising new weapons “really soon guys we swear”
