Guild Wars 2

.. the legendary gifts or just be able to exchange it to another gift.
I’m talking about the gifts dedicated to a legendary. Gift of Twilight, Gift of Frostfang etc.
I can’t possibly be the only one who have crafted one just to later change my mind on what legendary I want

Correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t believe the Gifts have equal value, so being able to exchange them for another would mess with high end mat prices.

Its very similar to crafting a Twilight or a Frostfang and then saying you had a change of heart. If you start crafting down one legendary weapon line, you are then committed. Make very sure of what you want before you start.

I suppose they could eventually give them other uses or even make them salvageable. But an even trade for another Gift? I’m not sure about that.

I know they are not same value, but it could be for a fee or something.
I would be okay with just getting half!
Better than having it rotten in my bank.
Maybe the best would be to just get the 100 icy runestones back.
I don’t agree with the comparison with a crafted legendary.
This is while your grinding for it, before you choose to account bound your weapon. You also have a choice to sell your legendary after you craft it.
I think it would be a good feature, many people go for this or that and then loot a precursor for another legendary etc and change their minds.

That right there is a common sentiment with a large number of ascended materials.

I don’t think this is a bad idea. Personally I have a Gift of Battle sitting in my bank because one day I needed to use WvW tokens for the daily and I coudn’t think of anything else even remotely useful. Aaaaannnnd.. I’m not making a legendary. But I don’t want to delete it in case I change my mind sometime or maybe get a precursor drop (ROFL…. IKR??!! never gonna happen).

Why can’t we sell these gifts if we can sell the actual legendary? Maybe someone who doesn’t want to do world completion but is willing to do everything else for making a legendary wouldn’t mind paying for the gift? Price could be set by market, as the legendary weapons and precursors and T6 materials are now.

If the booster converting powder is any indication, the fee to convert a gift will be 90% of the gift-you-are-converting-to’s cost.
