Tradeable Legendary Items - Discontinued
The pre-HoT legendary’s will still be there in the same exact way as they are now. They are NOT going away AT ALL!!!!
They are just adding more legendary’s and changing how to get them. Instead of waiting on the RNG god or farming huge amounts of gold to buy the precursor you now have a legendary journey to go on to get the legendary weapon.
The precursors for current legendaries will continue to drop. It is only the new legendaries, to be released in HoT, that will be untradeable.
Someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe current precursors will continue to drop. The new precursors won’t drop, but Dusk, The Legend, etc. will still drop and be tradeable, along with the new collection-based acquisition.
I interpreted that differently but makes sense when rereading it a few times.
has it been said that the new legendaries themselves will be bound on acquisition, or only the new precursors?
I figure old precursor prices will go down rather significantly since everyone will be saving their mats for the new upcoming legendaries and will largely no longer buy old precursors.

Depends entirely on how “cool” the new ones are I guess. If they look awful, the old ones will still be favored. Some of the new ones are still neat looking regardless of what new ones come in.

They would have to be bound wouldn’t they? Otherwise you could sell them – which ANet have stated they don’t want happening.
This was covered months ago. It’s common knowledge at this point that the current market for over priced junk isn’t changing. If you want to buy and sell precursors and the original set of legendaries that’s still available. If you think it’s bunk and don’t want to do that you can instead get them all through masteries, but anything you get through masteries will be untradable.

The new ones are not tradable

We also want to better preserve the prestige associated with crafting a legendary weapon, so the new legendary weapons, and their precursors, will not be tradable. Keep an eye out—we can’t wait to start showing them off when they’re ready!
ANet may give it to you.
New legendaries and new precursors, will be account bound
Old precursors will still drop and be trade-able (Twice Told Legend Achievement requires 2 legendaries of the same name), and old crafted legendarie will still be trade-able when crafted. If anything this will probably cause the old ones to drop in price because the old precursors- unless going for twice told legend- can now be earned as well at least once instead of relying on RNGesus.
