So…big things happening. With all of the new legendaries coming out with the release of HoT, maybe its time to think about a now longbow option. I was thinking keep it bitterfrost in concept. No images to just imagine.

Stave – kodan ship-like (focusing on all of the sales). In stow state, all of the sales are up and as it is drawn, the sales open to show the myriad of white tattered cloth.

String – MAKE IT VISIBLE – following the special effect on the left arm. Having compound bow string in style.

Arm effect – during day, arm is corrupted (covered in ice) and during night arm is on fire (or keep completely corrupted or on fire)

Projectile effect – either an arrow on fire or an ice shot

Footsteps – either fire or ice gusts

I`m not sure if you know that but actually ALL 2nd generation legendaries were probably finished long ago. They just decided to release 1 legendary weapon per content patch so we feel like the patch has more to offer. I`m pretty sure Anet finished legendary armors long ago aswell but they will release it with “HUGE CONTENT PATCH” when we will have all 2nd generation weapons. It`s all about that they have to include something more than personal story to patch to make it feel bigger and more interesting.

What basis do you have on that? They indefinitely discontinued production on them since it was taking too long, and then changed their model and got rid of the story/scavenger hunt that went along with them. Maybe they have a concept for each one in the works but I highly doubt they’re all actually done. They were promised with HoT and a lot of people are still kittened that it’s a year later and not even half of them are out

They discontinued release of the weapons — the hold up was apparently setting up the collections, not the design of the weapons themselves. To release the Mystic Curio versions, they probably had to disentangle the collections, set up the forging recipes, and put on finishing touches. It seems clear that at least a few of them were close to being finished.

The rest… well, I’d be surprised if they weren’t at the QA/test phase or close to it. I speculate that they have no plans to release them as soon as conceivable, but instead are hoping to include them one-at-a-time with various other updates. (Slow release to prevent too much disruptions to too many markets at once.)
