You know, I was secretly hoping for a recipe which uses Empyreal Fragment/ Empyreal Star to make the Pinnacle weapons. But the end result is satisfactory enough.

Would be a wee better if Powerful venom sac was used though

Except that there are 2 currently on the market and no one has bought :<

Give it time. Just hope noone undercuts you so quickly. I imagine it sells by end of the night if any collector logs on.

Even then, hold steady on your asking price. If there’s enough collectors trying to complete wardrobe, it will sell.

Interesting fourth item. I had actually bought a Soulshard to try earlier, anticipating that the end result would be the Reaper of Souls. I never would have thought to try an item from a mid-level heart vendor.

- Is there a plant that might hurt you when harvesting in RL?

Several. Their existence in GW2 is up for debate since I’m not a particular heavy harvester. Juniper and Rhubarb come to mind, though, as far as dangerous harvesting. Not sure if it’s actually relevant, although it might be.

3 – maybe more by now.

But folks aren’t going to be buying it instantaneously. Except for impulse buyers.

I’ll be waiting for the price to settle as all the impulse sellers try selling it to impulse buyers.

Dear ANet writers,
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.

@pdavis: Unlikely, but plausible. And oh kitten if it was.

Also, kinda kittened this is yet another item that uses Powerful Blood. It already has such a high buy price because of all the Berserker gear. Couldn’t it come from a different T6 mat…

If the Reaper of Souls was NOT the intended item, but rather has been there for forever, but no one had discovered it yet?

Reaper of Souls has been there since launch.

Evidence: its item id is included in the block of weapons that can be produced by the forge, which are all in one block in the API.

So if you feel lucky, grab another scroll ;D

Looks good. And it was fun to look. But I agree about blood. Looks like dev-s have some kind of fixed idea to make us spent more money… not good. The game, even without it, transformed into grind. Need to balance the ingredients that we spend somehow. 500 of this blood, for example, needed for eye of Rodgort. Despite its relevance, this blood is already used in twice as much recipes than any other ingredients.

The proof is of it existing. It doesn’t prove anything else. We don’t know if the recipe wasn’t added just now. Unless devs stated that clearly somewhere.

Like, there is a recipie out there, waiting to be discovered, that yields something unprecedented.
