Guild Wars 2

So far new legendary weapons have been confirmed. Also, I believe that completed collections rewarding a precursor has also been confirmed.

Oddly, precursors rewarded from drops or the mystic forge have not been confirmed.

New precursors crafted from the same mystic forge process as old precursors could lead to an initial glut of old precursors. New precursor crafted from a new process could tank the price of ectos, rares, and mats.

All existing collections are account bound. Repeatable collections don’t exist so far. A continuation of this would mean one collection completion per account. This could be much more restrictive than gifts of exploration, which are rewarded per character.

Will all accounts get a collection for all precursors? If precursors aren’t mystic forge craft able, I’d wager on it. This could contribute to easy collections or undesired precursors being far cheaper than harder collections with desired precursors.

How will will be crafted once you have a precursor?

Will they require dungeon tokens, badges of honor, and world completion along with gifts of fortune? Or entirely new requirements with entirely new materials. Alot of us want to know now if we have to do map completion yet another time.

Finally, there’s the issue of ‘shiny inflation’ with luminescent armors, mariners aqua readers, and certain amulets giving auras similar to legendaries, hw will anet top this?

Per the mmorpg.com interview:
“All collections are account-based, so there’s one collection per precursor per account”

I prefer if you can only get the new legends with collections because that would mean less people with legends, also less people that buy them of the tp instead of crafting.

I think collections will cause more legendary’s because people won’t spend that much money on a legendary… #LegendaryWars2

What if the precoursers for the new legendaries are also collectible bound?

Did they even confirm that new Precursors or Legendary Weapons could be sold? I would be very surprised if they allowed this (Account Bound across the board is my guess). I’m not sure Anet thinks allowing the original ones to be TP-able was the best way to make them more available to everyone (I’m not sure they SHOULD be readily accessible to all players, myself).

I would honestly be surprised if they made them account bound, Anet made a fortune selling legendarys at launch… If they make pre’s available only from collections then it’s possible for them not to be account bound, but if they drop from anything else they should be made able to sell.

(Technically anet didn’t sell legendarys, they sold gems which were converted into gold, and then used to purchase the weapon. )
