Guild Wars 2

First of all, why is it that the legendary hammer “sucks up” all the light in the new HoT maps? It’s like there’s some sort of different lighting in those maps, that the Juggernaut was not coded to work with (like in CoF, Juggernaut effect is just dark and without any shine). It looks darn right aweful in my opinion…

The legendary hammer is suppose to make you look like you’re covered in quicksilver. And it really does give you that look all over Tyria, except for in the Maguuma Jungle (And some dungeons).

The Twilight Arbor gear that I’m currently using actually, is actually MORE shiny without the legendary equipped (in HoT, that is).

Secondly, may we please finally have the effect transfer to our backpacks? Nowadays when so many people have wings that also function as their glider skin (even though the effect doesn’t work when gliding), it wouldn’t be a bad idea to also envelope the backpieces in quicksilver! And I know that I’m not the only one who would think that.

It’s a super cool weapon, I just wish I could get a more “complete” and consistent look. At this point in time, the only way to get that, is to in fact not use a backpiece at all :/

TLDR; Juggernaut effect doesn’t really work in the Maguuma Jungle as it does in the rest of Tyria. Would also be cool if the effect could carry over to the backpacks, to give a more complete look.

I know why it looks bad: you have big white wings…

Same thought here, the wings screw up your look a lot.

the juggernaut does need a revamp , but its a visual one for a hammer it looks more like a toothpick when you compare it to everything , timekeeper hammer looks more fitting as a legendary than juggernaut as it is

Well the look really isn’t my main problem, it’s that the armor effect (kind of a big reason why people get it in the first place) doesn’t work properly in the LATEST maps of the game. In my opinion they have to do something about this at the same time they release the new ones.

I don’t entirely agree with you, though to some degree. It has a lot of detail put into it with the quicksilver changing position depending on gravity, it’s also the only weapon (except for the new axe) that alters tour characters armor look. But yeah I see what you mean, when you throw it around it doesn’t really look like a legendary if you take aside the quicksilver splashing :/

But seriously, the armor effect in HoT (and some of the dungeons for that matter) needs to be fixed!

I like my Juggernaut the way it is but I will agree sometimes the lighting in certain areas makes the special effect look gross, and it doesn’t help when your back piece doesn’t get the painterly metallic effect either. Sigh.

The juggernaut uses the background lightning of the area you are in. That is why is looks weird in many places.

That’s the issue, something went wrong when they made the lighting in the HoT maps. Maybe it’s because they’re all quite dark…

Still, I want a fix

i dont mean the design itself sucks it is gorgeously detailed its just that for a Legendary Hammer one would expect something massive and impactful looking and juggernaut doesnt have that as it is The Juggernaut looks more like a Staff than a Battlehammer
it doesnt feel right on a weapon that requires a precursor called The Colossus and then its legendary name being The Juggernaut its dissapointing it needs more oomph asides from just the armor effects

Yeah it’s a bit on the small side :/ Maybe the 2nd gen legendary hammer will be bigger… And speaking of which, weren’t we suppose to see the next batch of 2nd gen legendaries on the 26th?

There is no lightning effect in new maps, someone forgot to make it.

Juggernaut needs new skin if you want to fix it. Now its just staff skin with hammer animations, one of worst legendary skins in game.

I’ll sign off on this too. I love my Juggernaut but some of the lighting in game makes the effect look strange. Instead of being covered in quicksilver, sometimes my character looks like she’s covered in squid ink, haha.

I don’t know how difficult it would be to give Juggernaut some love, but it would be greatly appreciated by those of us who use it.
