Guild Wars 2

Seeing how this gem is in the crafting subsection I am reposting it here so more people can see what is NOT being added to the feature patch.

We want to let you know that the ability to build your precursor will not be in our upcoming Feature Pack. The way progression and rewards work in Guild Wars 2 have changed quite a bit since we initially talked about that feature, and our main horizontal progression systems are about to get some additional updates in the upcoming feature pack. Because of that, we are looking into several ways to integrate building your precursor into our new updated reward and progression systems we’re working on, which is requiring additional development time and iteration. As always, we’ll share details on this system once it’s far enough along in production we’re ready to discuss it.

So after a year a half after:

I am definitely working on the precursor scavenger hunt, but like others have said, things like this take time and I want to get it right. Not to mention, it’s not the only thing on my plate. Please do not expect to see the precursor scavenger hunt in the next patch. I may be awesome, but I am still only human and this is a fairly large amount of work to get done and done right. Please be patient!

It’s understandable since they are making so many changes to horizontal progression and reward systems. You don’t want the precursor scavenger hunt to appear without utilizing all the new methods right?

Yes, I believe there was a thread here in General Discussion about a week ago about that. As far as I knew, they abandoned the Precursor Hunt a very long time ago. It’s been ‘crafting a Precursor’ for, well, ages.

Yeah… and I don’t have high hopes for it because they openly stated they don’t want to damage the current market for precursors so I’m sure it will be a rather hefty fee to craft them. So no sense in getting all excited… may as well just save and buy it.
