Guild Wars 2

It has been confirmed that the legendary backpack will not be released the first 3 months of 2016.

It’s perfectly possible. I do have full ascended, but my record is about 83k dmg on Vale Guardian with hundred blades.

Time to cross fingers and hope that the upcoming patch will not be another Ad-Infinitum-lacking patch.

I’m personally not a fan of the abyss dyes since I think it takes away from the detail of the armor but I like the style of the thief and rev quite a bit. Also your characters could use a bit more diversity in their appearance, but I also like the armor pieces you use throughout them (scarf, scarlet gloves) and it’s your thing so just do you. 7/10

Here is my beloved Charr Warrior, short of a few fused weapons but I’m not made of money, maybe some day :P

I’m not sure I like the color combination, but it looks quite good on a charr. I am also a fan of the eyepatch. 7/10

Edit: (You probably have to click the gif to see it properly)

It is highly unlikely, but if the recipe is in the game already, but just haven’t been discovered (Similar to Nightfury) then it would be much appreciated if a dev / mod could inform us of this – so we could actually start looking through possible recipes.

Sadly there has been too many threads about this topic – both here and on reddit. I have been keeping an eye on them while desperately hoping for a response. Most people who were excited about the legendary back item is now sitting with a precursor, unable to progress any further.

UPDATE:
Well, I have slightly gotten what i asked for.

Looking Longer Term:
Our Fractals team is hard at work on a lot of updates for Fractals of the Mists in 2016. Some highlights to look forward to in 2016 include the completion of outstanding projects like the Fractal legendary backpack and our new take on fractal leaderboards. You’ll also see lots of additional polish, balance to existing fractals and rewards, changes and polish to instabilities, additional reasons to play all the different fractals, and most importantly, new fractals (yes, you read that right: new fractals!).

So basically the legendary backpack won’t see the light for another AT LEAST 3 months.

Edit: Added extra dissapointment and broken promises.

Greetings

Yes, it’s another post about the infamous legendary back item. The item that goes by the name “Ad infinitum”, roughly translated to “without an end” – Which might be named very cleverly because the waiting time seems to be without an end.

Most of the people baffled by this beautiful skin has since HoT gathered all the pages and spent about 700 gold to craft the precursor. Once you show this newly crafted precursor to the NPC, he simply tells you to bugger off and wait.

Most people expected the last two gifts needed to craft the back item to be released with the Wintersday patch as a nice Christmas present, but we have yet to see any clue to its existence. Now that we are getting even closer to 2016 without any info about this subject, I beseech a kind soul, dev or forum mod for any information about the legendary back item that we are eagerly waiting for.

- The skin is present in the game, as it can be seen in the wardrobe.
- The recipe has been datamined and is known.
- (Unbound, Gift of fortune, Gift of the fractals & Gift of infinity)
- There is a recipe for the Gift of the Fractals, but it is unobtainable at the moment.
- The Asura in the fractal lobby is wearing the kitten thing.

What is keeping it from being released?

TL;DR:
Please provide some kind information about the release date of the legendary back item. Any information – even something about how you are currently working on it will suffice and make me a happy Quaggan.

I will literally write a poem to the first dev that replies, with useful info, about how awesome you are.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy New Year & Good Fortune to you all
