So my guild started idly talking about the spinal blade backpieces and somewhat low uses for blade shards and we came up with a possible idea for a slightly new use for blade shards (albeit not much of a sink and more of something people might only craft once or twice). The idea is to craft one of each color Tempered Spinal Blades (Static/Red, Synergetic/Green, Dynamic/Blue), then toss those three into the Mystic Forge with a fourth item (stack of blade shards, Gift of Blades) to make a spinal blade backpiece that cycles through the colors. I’m thinking that it wouldn’t be too hard to add, since the model’s already there (just gotta make a variant that changes colors).

And if I haven’t gotten everyone to reject my idea, I’ll toss out the additional suggestion to make it legendary? You could even complicate the forge recipe by requiring multiple steps and more blade shards. Honestly, I just want the rainbow spinal blade backpiece and maybe a new use for blade shards.

That’s an awesome idea! We need more ways to use existing materials, rather than just having them pile up on us.

Actually I could see this and support it. I got way too many shards than I could ever use and since they don’t stack (which they should—no reason for anet not to fix that!!!!!!!) they are just eating up space.

Sounds cool. Might need a new source for Power Cores, though. Maybe Blueprint Scraps, as well?

Good luck.

I don’t know the drop rate of the assault knight cores from the Nightmare fractal CM, but I can’t support this unless they are a reasonable drop rate.

I do love the idea though, just am worried because there are so few assault cores on the TP at the moment, and this could increase demand by a lot

ehh scrap the legendary idea keep it asc the 3 backpieces are way cheaper to make than any of the 2 legendary backpieces. Im all in on you idea tho and i would go as far as to suggest they also give a glider when you unlock this since with this recipe it will be one of the more time consuming backpieces to make.
