Hi i’m trying to craft The Legendary Weapon Quip. I find it hard and wanted to ask the forum to help me with my gift of Quip if possible to help with the 100 icy runestones (37 at the moment). If you guys could give me some $$ so i can buy them or give me some advice / guides to craft my legendary it would be awesome !
Have a Kawaii day (^_^)

The component part of the Legendaries are expensive aren’t they.

I made Moljinir for my Guardian. It’s not a Legendary but it requires 350 Charged Lodestones at over 3 gold each. That set me back over 1000 gold just for that.

I recommend you run a few dungeons every day. Use the gold you get as a reward plus what you get from drops and use that to buy a few Icy Runestones every day. It won’t take very long at all.

I hadn’t done dungeons for a long time, however yesterday I did 3 AC paths, 1 SE path and 1 Arah path and ended up with 15 gold. That’s maybe 6 hours (Arah took a while) to get 15/100 runestones. Do you have the precursor etc? Because you’re in for a surprise since the runestones are more of the easy part of a legendary nowadays.

6 hours for 5 dungeon paths? What, you did SE2 and Arah4?

If the pugs you get are half-decent, the times would more likely be: AC any path should take ~20 mins, SE1 about 10, SE3 maybe 15, CoF1 ~7-8, CoE any path ~25-30 mins… Not sure about Arah as I don’t do that one much, same for other dungeons. That’s ~13g solid cash just from the paths I mentioned and it shouldn’t take more than 3 hours to get them all done. Not to mention the tokens and loot…

GL on your legendary!

I didn’t track time, it was just an estimate. Plus none of us had done the Arah path before so it took a bit longer.

Yeah Arah depends on whether or not you group can handle Giganticus Poopicus. I suck at it, so I usually depend on someone to carry, and for that reason I don’t run arah that much anymore. Arah p1 and 2 can be very smooth though if you have a good thief or engineer to whisk you safely path the cheap trash skips that are honestly pretty brutal without one.

I typically run 5 or 6 paths per day, which is AC all paths, CoF 1, SE 1 and then CoF 2 or SE 3 depending on my mood. I also add TA up and fwd to that if I have extra time and sometimes CM 3. Doing 5 paths a day yields 11.2 gold roughly when taking token exotic salvaging into account, but not accounting for champion loot bag drops. Bumping that up to 9 paths in a day nets you about 19 gold, which is enough to buy all of your runestones in 5 days or so.

I’m close to finally finishing howler and I only need another 4 days or so of running these dungeons to get the gold I need to finish off the gift of howler, assuming my howl buy order for 450 gold gets fulfilled, and its frustrating to be patient for that.

Also hopefully you have a nice guild that likes you. You need the gift of wood for quip right? For my guild, if I asked them for any of their extra wood lying around so that their wood could be part of my legendary forever, they’d chuckle and definitly help out with that relatively easy part hahaha. But if they don’t I’m skipping our WvW to go on a massive deforestation romp throughout tyria!
