New legendaries
This is correct.
Let’s hope the new greatsword requires 10,000 sprockets eh? I mean, they’re so cheap now.
Not in the near future …
Before introducing new ones ..
1- They need to fix current Legendaries , i have Sunrise , Flameseeker and Rodgort. im still waiting for the advertised revamped Rodgort footfall . Eternity is broken .. some legendary don’t get the arm effect if equipped in off hand.
2- Where is the scavenger hunt ?
I’m close to completing my legendary, I have gone for sunrise so I can use on my both my ranger and guardian…
They are soul bound on use. You’ll have to pick one character or the other.

It is possible to soulbind the legendary for the ranger and then switch it to the guardian with the bit of tinkering he was talking about. You need transmutation crystals and splitters to do it.

2- Where is the scavenger hunt ?
Has this ever been mentioned in any way than more than a passing comment or suggestion?
I see this come up so often and wonder why people are so adamant about it when I’ve yet to see Anet say with 100% conviction this was something that they were working on (beyond the speculative thinking out loud). So I wonder how much the idea for this is based on player speculation and rumor.
I’m really just curious as to if Anet actually did say anything.
Scavenger hunt was confirmed for all precursors, infact if you follow reddit, there was a post about datamined items which started some what of a “quest/progression” towards acquiring precursors in a guaranteed way. These items are already in the game, but i doubt we will actually be able to get them until March when the whole Scarlet arc ends.
If I recall correctly, about 2-3 months ago they said new legendaries were at the “highest risk” of not being completed by the end of the year (compared to everything else they were working on), and instead getting pushed into 2014.
Now that we’re here, they’ve announced the next few updates will be pretty much Living Story updates.
So, my very optimistic mind is hoping/thinking they will be here within the next 2 months.
But I could be wrong, of course.
Also , if there are new legendaries , i think its not going to be weapons.
Now that current legendaries have the swap-stats ability on the go and all weapons type are covered there is no point to create new ones .. So Armor and Back piece with the same swap-stats ability is logically the next step in the legendaries.
If they release new legendary weapons or armor or trinkets, I just hope the precursors don’t drop in the mystic forge.
They should release precursor crafting before even thinking about creating new legendaries.

I’m almost certain it’s gonna be more weapons, and here’s why I hope I’m right: The biggest reason to get a legendary isn’t the stat-swapping ability, it’s how awesome it looks (people were getting legendaries long before stat-swapping was even a thing). And if I want a legendary pistol, I want more choices than one that looks goofy and shoots confetti.

Colin said last September that one category of legendary would be released that year, hinting that it would be a backpiece.
Since that got moved up, it is reasonable to expect that the new legendary backpiece we will get will happen in the content drop in March.

I wouldn’t bet money on March. Arenanet has become pro at pushing precursor crafting back. I find it unlikely that they are doing anything with it more than they can get away with. They make far to much money off of the TP tax and the thousands upon thousands of exotic sales that people throw into the toilet.
Where are my gem sales? I want gem sales! Nerf EVERYTHING!
i hope the precursor crafting to be account bound , or it will hurt badly the economy. Both can co-exist ( forged precursor and precursor crafting ) And A.net don’t make ’’money’’ with the TP fees ….not real money if if that’s what you mean.

Okay, that’s fair. I didn’t know that.
However, I still doubt it will purely be backpieces; I think new legendary weapons are in the mix somewhere.

Yeah, perhaps the reason why it was delayed was to have a simultaneous release of all legendary types.
Looking at the specific paragraph:
“We aren’t quite ready to go into all the details here, but what I can say is you will see a specific way to build precursor items on your way to a legendary. On top of this, you’ll also see new legendary weapons and new types of legendary gear in 2013. Building your precursor will require a large amount of the new crafting material rewards listed above, 500 in crafting, and likely a combination of other items earned for completing more specific content in the game”
Ah, I actually vaguely remember that.
Here’s hoping it all comes true!
OP, if you’re willing to hold off on Sunrise for a few months, you’ll probably have a better answer by then. If not, the worst-case scenario is you still have an awesome greatsword!
