Guild Wars 2

Many of the current rare collections require difficult to obtain RNG drops from Boss events, so I’m wondering if the same is going to be true for the precursor collections?

As the stated intention of the introduction of precursor crafting was to eliminate the RNG aspect of obtaining a precursor, I sincerely hope that Anet hasn’t included any such items in any of the precursor collection requirements.

If they have, those wishing to craft a legendary are going to be in an even worst position than currently exists as progress will be blocked until they are able to acquire the rarer RNG items to complete the precursor crafting achievement.

As I don’t think I have seen a discussion on this topic before, I think clarification or a rethink of the decision would be extremely helpful as a lot of players are going to be deeply unhappy if this is the case.

It’ll probably be like the Living Story season 2 collections – you do an event and you get a thing. Or interact with a thing and it converts it to the collection item. Making it RNG would be a disaster.
