Guild Wars 2

Earlier this year we received specific information that PvP legendaries would be expected to be released in 2013. Since then we have heard absolutely nothing about it. It was the MOST discussed reward topic in the forum the pas 6 months and it sounds like they just chose to ignore the topic altogether.

While I know the topic is highly debated even among the pvpers I think the LAST thing we want is for PvE players to bring their legendaries in PvP when we can’t even do that ourselves.

I realize the full new future reward system has yet to be released but they didn’t even breathe a word about PvP legendaries in the live stream and they DID tell us that they plan on letting PvE players wear their outfits/setup in PvP and vice versa. Basically that sounds like “PvE players get to rub legendaries in your faces and we are still undecided on whether or not we will give PvPrs a realistic way of obtaining one.”

That’s just my impression. What do you guys think?

Legendaries aside I loooooved the live stream!!! Lots changing and a ton to look forward to!

I just saw a legendary in PvP. Wat.

Not heard nothing. If you read the forums like a newspaper this was addressed. Of all the changes (None of them happened anyway.) It was stated all work on kegendary weaps from crafting precursor’s etc etc was on hold and not going to make the cut.

Can you source where they said they would put PvP legendaries on hold? I have been watching that info like a hawk and recall no such statement.

I think it would only be fair to not allow pve’ers to bring legendaries into pvp until we have a viable method of obtaining one in pvp ourselves.

So this means that the easiest targets will be glowing.

…how is this a problem again?

I have a legendary.

I PvP.

Do I get to rub my greatsword in everyone’s faces?

Since I actually PvP?

As someone who PvPs for the sake of playing other players instead of AI as opposed to PvPing to play dress up, I must say I really, really couldn’t care less than PvE players can use legendary skins in PvP before PvP players can.

It was a developer post form like a month ago on a topic similar to this one

How bout you already have a viable method of creating one..it’s called PvE. Heaven forbid you have to go through the same process as every other player to get one.

PvP in gw2 can in no way replicate the things a player has to do to craft one in PvE. This is reason enough that the PvP community are deserved on their own ‘ultimo’ PvP weapon(s)..something that says…“That mofo busted their nut in PvP to get that…and the that other mofo..they busted their PvE nut to get what they did.” The sheer elements of time gating, extraordinary RnG, the horrific grind of 2000 T5 rare materials, the crafting to 400,..the massive gold hoarding, the huge karma investment after it got so heavily nerfed just can’t be replicated in PvP which is starved for content. PvP needs it own status weapons.

It was not adressed in pvp forums, but in game discussion. All crafting of precursors and legendary weapons in different aspects of the game has not meet it’s time lines and will occur later on now.

Thanks for clarifying. I do recall reading about a delay on crafting precursors and new legendaries but I missed anything that suggested a delay to PvP legendaries. I wish there were more clear methods used to communicate information like that to the player base.

I believe that pvp legendaries are already in the game, because we can preview it with codes, but not releasing any time soon yet.

codes like these
[&AgEgwAAA][&AgEhwAAA][&AgEiwAAA][&AgEjwAAA][&AgEkwAAA][&AgElwAAA][&AgEmwAAA][&AgEnwAAA][&AgEowAAA][&AgEpwAAA][&AgEqwAAA][&AgErwAAA][&AgEswAAA][&AgEtwAAA][&AgEuwAAA][&AgEvwAAA][&AgEwwAAA][&AgExwAAA][&AgEywAAA][&AgEzwAAA][&AgE0wAAA]

they need to give pvp players unique pvp armor skins and weapons that we can bring to pve world and show off, so that when pve players see us they know we are pvp players coz of how they look. dont want to sample WOW but since they are the most popular. their pvp armor are specific for pvp players, you know them when they walk by.

Yes but i shouldn’t have to go into pve, grind for hours, just to get a weapon for pvp. That doesn’t make any sense, that being said I’m all for pvp having it’s own status weapons. I just shouldn’t have to go into pve to get a pvp weapon.

This is like saying PvPers who PvE shouldn’t be able to use their rank finishers.

“While I know the topic is highly debated even among the pvpers I think the LAST thing we want is for PvE players to bring their legendaries in PvP when we can’t even do that ourselves.”

Anyone can make a legendary, even PvPer’s it just takes dedication and time.

People work for their own things, so they should be able to show it off in the game.
