This is a really amazing change but I think the raiders gonna be so mad at it.
In before the complains.
It takes more effort to get this armor than the raid legendary armor so they haven’t got a leg to stand on.
I’m sorry what?
Ardent Glorious skins require more effort than 25 LI for first armor and 50 LI / piece?
Sorry, that made me laugh.Even Triumphant armor doesn’t take that long. It’s T2, not even 8 weeks of WvW for a complete set.
It seems that you’ve forgotten that it takes a MINIMUM of 7 hours to get the maximum amount of tickets a week, and that’s assuming you have reached 10k WvW rank AND maintaining outnumbered the entire time. The average player would probably have to spend 15-20 hours in a week in WvW if they wanted to max out their tickets and get it in the 8 weeks you stated. So yes the Triumphant armor takes far more effort than the raid armor does, but the effort for pvp is pretty minimal, though you have to wait for leagues to happen so that can make it take a bit longer. I’ll also assume that the gifts will require even more Skirmish Tickets and the PvP tickets, so they’d likely take more than one tourney, and a bit more than one additional week of wvw to make your set.
While I do think some of that is plausible, I don’t that it was really his intention. If the titan army hadn’t gone out to kill the various leaders or the cataclysm hadn’t happened I would say that your theory was perfectly viable. Although you could say that the cataclysm was necessary to destroy the mursaat, there still isn’t really an explanation for killing the leaders. Unless you wanted to try arguing that by doing so they would band together and become one strong nation to face the upcoming threat.
With Factions there isn’t really a good explanation for killing the emperor either, because that caused the Kurzicks and the Luxons to war, thus weakening the nation there.
I think that it’s fairly clear that the Searing is tied to Kralkatorrik, because they say in game that the cauldron and the Searing magic is older than the titans. So I do believe that Abaddon’s fractal would be related to Kralkatorrik because they even said that the living story would have taken a different path, one that would likely lead to that side of the map because of the current connection and Evon being a charr. However, I doubt that Abaddon was planning on the rise of the dragons, but rather thinking about how to escape from his own prison.
