Hello!

My question is that is there a limit until when I can get the pvp backpack? Or it will be acquirable anytime, like the legendary weapons? I heard that every year a new legendary pvp backpack will be released, but will that mean that the olders ones won’t be craftable anymore? Or i can’t get the precursor etc for it, because the achi will go away?

Regards,

From a blog post a couple of weeks ago: https://www.guildwars2.com/en-gb/news/pvp-leagues-and-sloth-attack-on-guild-chat-a-summary/

There will be a new legendary backpack every year, but Hugh confirmed that the current style can still be earned after a new one is introduced

Let’s add some info to this:

  • Parts of the backpack cost PvP League Tickets (Wings for Wings of Ascension and Certificates ofSupport for Gift of Skirmishing. Your ability to get these is limited to a certain number of tickets per season and requires you to go up in rank. In other words, your access to these is somewhat limited.
  • When new backpacks are released, the old backpack parts will have their costs increased. This will probably apply to the wings; certificates of support may be a common component,
  • Components of the Gift of the Competitor require doing a certain number of achievements in each individual season. While it looks like players have been able to advance forward in season achievements, there’s no guarantee you’ll be able to go backward. In other words, you can do season 3 if you finish season 3; if you sit out season 2, you might not be able to get the associated piece.
  • It appears you only get one Gift of the Competitor piece per season. If you miss out on a season, that could permanently set you back a year.

We need a dev to weigh in on this.
