This is going to be a thread dedicated to any and all Ideas based around lore, and the potential legends we can gain access too. Post your Ideas guys
Riannoc: After having played the sylvary campaign recently, All this talk of Riannoc makes me feel as though he is a strong candidate. With the ability to reforge Caladbolg, This makes all the more reason for this to be a thing. He could bring the great-sword too the Revenant, as he himself wielded a great-sword. We see Caladbolg through out the campaign having differing abilities based on who wields it, perhaps we could have it be a solid Addition to the Power spec? Make it work really well with shiro and or Jalis depending on what It’s main concept is.
Asgeir Dragonrender: Being the norn who PUNCHED an elder dragon in the mouth, as well carrying its freaking tooth to their now settlement I feel as though he kinda deserves to be a spec for Rev. The only way this would work however is if they brought spear on land due to his primary weapon being a spear Assuredly as a two hander. It would be cool to get more info on this guy, as in the living story we do help braham get the scroll this guy actually used to enchant his spear in order to hurt jormag.
Eir Stegalkin: I dont think I really need to elaborate on this one, but yeah have her bring the long bow enough said.
Zin: With the entirety of Draconis Mons being geared toward talking about this guy, Having him bring a pistol into play is not outside the realm of possibilities.
Snaff: Scepter? I dont know what he would bring but he is pretty influential seeing as he is one of the catalysts for destiny’s edge being full of angst. He is also a huge lore figure I guess?
Oolah, Vekk or Gadd: Main hand focus or off-hand focus either way I feel like these guys would be interesting. Though due to them being so similar I dont see why we would need them all I suppose Vekk would be the most logical choice as we know him the best.
Justiciar Hablion OR Saul D’Alessio: So much white mantle in one living story, its hard not to throw these guys out there. Again I have no clue what weapon they should bring to the table, but they are HUGE in the way of legends.
Lazarus: Since balthazar was merely parading around as the guy, Why not let us have a legendary stance based around him? Make him play all buddy buddy like with Mallyx with these two being condi kings in bed with one another.
abbadon: Again a great addition to the condi side of things, could work well with mallyx or lazarus(if implemented)
Any of the spirits of the wild: Bear, raven, wolf, snow leopard whatever it is or potentially all of them it would be really cool. Make it very similar to the ursan form in Guild wars 1 where you get to be their aspect, while they empower you.
Any of the Six gods: Again it would be cool to see as they are huge in The lore and could be really cool, once again you could copy the avatar forms/stances from the dervish in GW1.
The Envoy’s: We kinda get this with shiro, but the Envoy’s in factions were interesting as hell and we did not get entirely all the information we would of liked. Bringing them back as a legendary stance would be sick.
Nike: She killed shiro, as well could bring dual daggers to the rev and have them function similarly to the original assassins from Guild wars 1. The thief and Assassin are two totally differing things. Thieves in guild wars 2 are really burst heavy with jump in, jump out combat (which is awesome). Assassins would be more like brawlers who rely on conditions( or more cc) to deal with enemies.
Kuunavang: The glint of GW 1 factions, I dont know what to make of her or how she would work but it would be cool to run Glint/Kuunavang.
Turai Ossa: We finally get to this guy and again I dont know what he would bring to the table, however he is a pretty big lore figure himself.
And finally
Undead Lich: The main big bad at the end of the original Prophecies campaign, He would be cool to see though I Feel like he would be a very caster-esq legend. https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Undead_Lich I have no Idea again of what weapon he could bring, but I feel like he would be cool to see as he is kind of the first main villian we faced in the world of Tyria and is kind of tied to Zhaitan.
Bonus round
The Elder dragons: Zhaitan and Mordremoth could be cool legends as they are in theory older than the gods. We have killed them both and their legends probably will live on, It could be cool to channel them though it would be weird as well.
