Ad Infinitum doesn’t advance the Legendary Collector achievement.

Sure, it’s not a weapon, but it still satisfies all the requirements that the achievement demands.

The achievement was original established when the only legendary items were weapons, so there was no reason for it to specify what type of legendary. Therefore, it’s unclear to me whether it’s intended or accidental that Ad Infinitum doesn’t count.

On the pro side, it shouldn’t matter what the original idea was: the costs and effort involved in creating the back item are comparable. On the con side, we already get several achievements from creating the backpack.

Either way, I’d like to hear ANet’s take on this: intentional? or accidental?

I think we can agree that something isn’t right. Either the text of the achievement or the fact that Ad Infinitum doesn’t count.

Could we get at least some kind of confirmation? Is it supposed to advance or not?

We aren’t likely to get a confirmation until (a) ANet fixes it or (b) another set of legendary non-weapons comes out and those, too, do not award twice-told for forging a dupe.
