Is this a large hint that the Precursor Scavenger hunt could be coming to us soon?

Please ArenaNet, let it be so! <3

In order to make the new Vine backpiece, and upgrade it to it’s highest quality. (Ascended, then Infused Ascended.) It requires quite a lot of steps, but not only those steps, it requires completing differing types of content to finish it entirely.

1) – Living Story – First you need to do the Living Story to acquire the starting pieces.

2) – Open World/Exploration – Then you must map travel and interact with the environment in game to properly infuse these new-found items. By exploring the maps and finding the places necessary to infuse them.

3) – Gathering – So far you are only required to gather to get the Foxfire Clusters.

4) – The Mists – You must venture into the Mists, FotM specifically. But imagine if the time you spent in the Mists War gave you what you needed to build your legend?

5) – Crafting – Then use Ascended Crafting to build the components gathered throughout the game. (Ascended Mats: Bloodstone Dust, Empyreal Fragments, Dragonite Ore — which can come from WvW, Dungeons, Open World Events, Boss Fights, Champ Loot Bags, etc.)

The process is long. But the same could be said for a Precursor Scavenger Hunt. The process will be long, require us to interact not only with the Living Story, for the Living World around us. For us to venture into all sides of the game, on the epic hunt to find what we need to, in a new way, craft the Precursor to our Legendary.

The Precursor hunt would likely be more challenging, and longer. But could this newest backpiece, as someone else said in another thread: A Precursor to the Precursor hunt/crafting?

A Precursor that would come from exploring, and saving, Tyria.
