Guild Wars 2

please dont turn this into yet another qq/rant or whatever treat…

Im just looking for answers given by the people that acquired their precursors via mystic forge

How much money did you spend till you got it? (doesnt matter what precursor it was)

I got my first one with 16 shields I purchased and got the shield precursor after throwing 12 in. I used all Rivet Walls. That was February of 2013. I don’t forge anymore though because you can throw level 80s in and get sub 80s out. It didn’t used to be that way. I have never gotten a precursor out of the forge with gold weapons. It’s always been with named exotics. I have gotten one as a drop, one out of a chest in CoF and the rest were forged(5).

Got mine with rare items, since I received most of them through world boss events, I didn’t even pay attention to “how much” I could have used.

i’ll try to make some calcs…
15 prec:
2 bard, 1 venom, 1 rage, 3 zap, 2 dusk, 1 the legend, 1 tooth of frostfang, 1 spark, 1 kudzu, 1 chacarias, 1 the chosen
Prices are not the same cause of the value change in the time, but approximately:
9625, but i think i’ve earned 10’000+ gold
Money spent for forge: i think 4’000 gold since i’ve started

I’ve showed about 1300g down the forge by now and still no precursor from there. :)
