Guild Wars 2

I’ve been ignoring legendary items so far, yet I definitely see the usefulness of legendary armor set. So, to those who have more experience with legendary grinds and better understanding of them – how long will it approximately take to make set, provided I play, let’s say, 4 hours a day?

This is tough to answer honestly. By far the hardest gate to legendary armor is the legendary insights, which only drop from raid bosses, and you need 150 of them to make an entire set of legendary armor.

The collections sure will take some time, but you can easily do those and gather the rest of the materials while collecting the legendary insights, so to me they are the biggest gate right now.

Currently, AFAIK (I don’t raid myself), you can only get up to 13 legendary insights (LI from now on) each week, 1 per raid boss. So, its a minimum of 12 weeks assuming you kill all bosses each week. However, this doesn’t take into account the amount of time you will need to spend practicing for each boss, and finding a reliable/static group to run with.

So, minimum of 12 weeks playtime currently. Possible in 4 hours a day? Yes, its technically possible. Is it likely? Well that depends on how good mechanically you are at the game, along with how geared up your character is (ie you might need to get a new set of gear for the class(es) you want to raid with). You could find that you are excellent at raids, and can kill all 13 bosses within the first week of starting. Or you might find that it takes you 1-3 months to get to the point of being able to kill all the bosses (or even longer depending on how quickly you can learn a fight and your class’ rotation).

Thanks! Guess it’s time to get into raiding then )
