Guild Wars 2

Totally agree. I just started playing again after having not played this for over a year now only to find out the lions arch got totally changed.

It looks so lame compared to how it used to look. Definitely do NOT like at all.

who cares? The skins are epic bad this year and u can’t get old ones.

I think it would be agood idea. Give people something to do when standing around LA. Might make a few cool hangout spots and whatnot.

I remember dueling in front of towns in WoW back in the day. Good times. I don’t see anything negative about adding it into the game.

Stalima.5490:

the problem with making them more “available” is that unless it takes an insane amount just to craft, the entire feeling from these items dropping will go from “YES I GOT IT” to “meh whatever” and im pretty sure they dont want that…

as ppl learned from WoW “epics without feeling are no epics at all” its alright saying i want this and that now but months or years down the line youll just feel that prcursor stuff is not really a big deal

and by your logic it sounds like your going to farm the ENTIRE legendary from scratch with no TP involved kitten much as buying any of those rare crafting materials thats bloods, venoms, any of it… goes against everything youve just said.

Your logic is flawed. I just don’t want to give 800g to someone who was simply luckier than me. I wont give 2 months of solid grinding effort to someone who got lucky with RNG.

300g is a reasonable amount for precursor.

Will I spend 40 or 50g on t6 mats to craft a couple gifts? I don’t see why not. Time is money in this game, that won’t change. If I spent time grinding the T6 mats instead of grinding globs from fractals/dungeons to sell it would be the exact same thing in the end regardless. Gold equals whatever you want it to be.

However this same statement does not hold true at all when regarding precursor. It’s dumb luck RNG, which is completely different. Time is gold, but not regarding precursors.

Someone should make a character name called Toilet paper, then stand him there next to mystic toilet 24/7.

Ops too late….

mercury ranique.2170:

Hi shelledfade,

I think this suggestion is too late. They allready explained that there is a need for a different way to get a precrusor. So they announced that before the end of the year you can craft your own. It will take effort to get a precursor, but it will not have anything to do with luck wether you get it or not.

they said its likely not to be out by the end of this year so that’s why I’d rather suggest an easier and quicker way for them to get this too us without RNG being a factor.

I’m ok with crafting it but not if I need to wait 2+ months to do it. I’m done waiting for something that should have been released already.

Would solve everything in an instant, TP be kitten ed because this would still be a gold sink anyway.

Just update the vendor Miyani to sell precursors for 300g. It’s a more than reasonable amount and you wouldn’t have to do anything annoying or ridiculous for “crafting” it which I’m sure will be even more annoying than crafting ascended weapons is.

Anyway this is my quick fix suggestion and I don’t see a problem with it. 300g for a precursor is a reasonable amount. They should be account-bound anyway. Let us buy them from Miyani and get it over with. If people still want to gamble RNG in mystic toilet let them but let people who don’t just buy the kitten thing already……..

I have 600g and eventually when I get 800g there’s no freaking way I’m giving some random lucky nub who got lucky as hell that much gold for dusk only because he was luckier than me. It’s lame. Reward your players EFFORT with a reward.

Those of us who are not lucky need a way to put our effort into getting a precursor without RNG being a factor and I’m not about to wait 2+ months to be able to craft it.

If having us craft it is gonna take you guys +2 months to finish in development time I think you guys should just take the easier route and do it this way instead of making us wait +2 months. It’s ridiculous.

I am up to 600g that I purely attained by grinding and salvaging. It’s depressing because that should be double the amount I should need to pay for precursor and yet I can do nothing with it. If it was 800g I wouldn’t give it to some random lucky nub who got luckier than me from mystic forge anyway. So I can’t do jack crap with my gold.

I am in quite the dilemma. It makes playing the game almost like torture. After the halloween update ends I think I’m just gonna stop playing until I hear something about crafting precursors because I can’t keep doing this for no reason, but I am looking forward to this halloween update.

Honestly I think ANET should just let us buy them from the Miyani vendor for 300g. If we have that much gold then let us use it! It is more than a fair amount for any precursor and it would be a good gold sink instead of putting 300+ gold into other players hands who then have enough gold to abuse TP prices badly by controlling the market simply because they got RNG lucky. It’s mind boggling this has been allowed to remain as it is this long.

I would rather have my gold go to an NPC than to someone who got luckier than me.

rizzo.1079:

On the other hand: These are all bits inside machines that you manipulate using software you paid $60 to license. None of these things are actually worth anything at all in a real world sense.

Gold-selling websites disagree with you.

aliksyian.7642:

Shelledfade.6435:

I don’t really see what the argument here is. You’re not supposed to get end-game gear easily.

Why not? That’s how it used to be.

Why not is because they don’t want you transfering all your AR to char to char to do higher fractals easier.

Capes and cloaks would be awesome in this game. I honestly don’t know why they don’t do it. Probably too lazy? Underpaid? Who knows, but they SHOULD do it.

What would be the point of transfering zerk gear to another zerk character… ? I don’t get it. I have a zerk warrior and a condition mancer and I don’t see anything wrong with the fact that I need to earn gear on each of them separately.

I don’t really see what the argument here is. You’re not supposed to get end-game gear easily.

What you want is to be able to put all your AR gear on a different character so you can do a higher fractal which is called abusing the system. This is the reason why it isn’t account-bound only.

Well if you’ve gained extra materials you had no intention of grinding at all, technically its a bonus in my opinion. I only consider the notion of earned items as items you’re intending to grind. Anything else you get over-time is an added bonus as far as I’m concerned.

For example I farm CoE 1-2-3 tokens for globs of ecto. Any charged cores I get though are just an added bonus in my opinion.

Grind. Grind a lot.

This is grind wars 2 after all. No skill involved, just RNG and monotonous grind. Skill with effort is not rewarded in this game at all. Anet agrees, just look at that new aether path in TA, it speaks for itself.

I can tell you from my own experience that it made no difference. I had a birthday booster (2 of them) and I farmed all those hours with 240 MF.

I noticed 0 difference in drops. I got the same amount of powerful bloods, same amount of rares as when I had 140.

The fact of the matter is that MF just doesn’t make any noticeable impact in what loot you’re getting, which is probably why they didn’t give a crap about making it an account-wide statistic because it makes little to no difference. MF doesn’t even affect chest-based loot which is where most of your loot comes from anyway in terms of rares. RNG rules this game. You either roll big or you don’t, mf barely impacts it at all.

I’m losing faith in this company after they said precursor crafting probably STILL won’t happen by the end of this year, and instead they’re probably adding ascended armor.

So something people have been asking for, for +7 and ongoing months is taking a backseat to something nobody asked for.

There’s no explanation for that. It’s incompetence and they don’t listen to the players.

It won’t increase your chances of getting a precursor, therefor it makes no difference.

It will be a wheel with sockets on the exterior. You can use it to grind your reward.

Or maybe a single green item like the Aether chests! Oh my, how rewarding!

From what I understand they haven’t released the time of the update.

Dondarrion.2748:

Hopefully the skins (if there are any) will be new ones and not last year’s. For collectors it’s nicer to get a Halloween set over the years, plus it retains the exclusivity of previous years’ skins.

I hope its a combination of all the old skins plus some new ones. There’s no reason why we can’t have the best of both worlds.

giving us a couple of days in advance wouldn’t hurt. Springing the hour of release the DAY its coming out is kind of absurd right?

This game is a grind. There is no enjoying it the way YOU want to unless you’re satisfied with reaching a sub-par ending in this game and subside to the fact that you’re forced to take part in things you may not want to.

Wanna craft ascended stuff? You’re forced to get dragonite ore which can only be attained from world boss events.

Wanna run your favorite dungeon over and over? Can’t because of diminishing returns.

…and if you want your precursor, forget it. You’ll have to farm hardcore for 2-3 months just to get the precursor unless you’re one of the random lucky individuals that this game decides to bless with its bad rng mechanics. ..and if getting a legendary isn’t even a goal then playing this game is pointless because everything you do in this game only has one purpose. Grind. The only thing that doesn’t is WvW, and WvW is only fun if you’re in the winning zerg.

its the new 3 hour long path that nobody is gonna do. Hurray!!

Redenaz.8631:

There’s really no sense in trying to justify the sneak peak we got with the one advertised on the Halloween event page. There’s no need to. Obviously, one thing was planned when the event page was written, something came up, and they had to change the plan, which is why we got something else. The Facebook announcement reflected the change (even if they didn’t acknowledge that there was a change,) and the Halloween release page was just plain outdated…which isn’t shocking, if the change was at all a last minute thing. Should that have been acknowledged a little more? Possibly, yeah, but a last minute change to the release page isn’t going to inform that many people. That’s what social media is good at and traditional web is not, quick changes.

What really baffles me are the people who make a big point about how they were lied to, like there is any possible motive for luring people in with a preview of Halloween content, then switching them with a balance patch preview. It’s perfectly reasonable to be disappointed or frustrated, but the idea that anyone was being intentionally mislead is absurd.

well the sneak peak was for blood and madness (that’s exactly what it said) but all it showed was some class changes. People wanted to see the halloween stuff. I myself was under the impression that it was for a sneak peak regarding halloween stuff.

I don’t think anyone is saying that this was done intentionally, but you can see how easily anyone could have been mislead about it.

I don’t understand why they didn’t just say it was a look at some class changes, because it had nothing to do with blood and madness lol..

last year they gave a specific time i think, if my memory isn’t degrading that is.

magicweaver.2695:

The advertisment for the coming Blood and Madness event said there was going to be a sneak peek on the live feed that just happened.

There was no sneak peek! What is up with that?

All you did was run to “buy” more weapons and show 1 area (spvp) area.

Did you forget? Or was it an empty promise?

Agreed. I went to the twitch and there was no sneak peak for halloween stuff at all.

When exactly is the update going to hit?

I want the time down to the nano second.

UrScrewed.6183:

Shelledfade.6435:

Like I said, I’d be willing to spend 200 or 300g to craft precursor, anything more than that is overkill.

It’s overkill because you can’t afford it. It’s going for 800g for a reason, and if your only willing to spend 25% of what other people will, then you might as well quit again.

Nobody really spends that much anyway. Mostly they just get traded around with people who have 1000’s of gold to spend because they exploited the market early in the first place.

I am not going to give that much gold to some random noob who got lucky. I’m sorry that you did, are you mad? Good, you should be. I would be too.

25% huh? There goes the internet making up %’s again…

UrScrewed.6183:

@Shelledfade

The precurser market is directly related to the forging of precursers. An exotic greatsword sells for about 2g, so 1 attempt (using exotics) for dusk cost 8g. Since dusk sells for 800g, it probably takes an average of 100 attempts using exotics GSs to get one. By using 200g you baisiclly put in 25% of the average, and then quit because you weren’t one of those lucky people who got one quickly & cheaply.

I’m not saying i agree with the RGN system, because i am one of those who bought my dusk for 700g, because i’d be mad if i blew it all with nothing to show for it. I do support crafting, but not to make precursers cheaper, mearly as another way to get it. I’d of rather used that 700g crafting my own, then blowing it on the forge, or buying off the trading post. I don’t want them to cost 200g either, crafting should be comparable with the current cost, to not destroy markets.

I think the type of weapon should be the determaning factor in crafting it. Since daggers, greatswords, staffs, and hammers seem to be the highest valued, those precursers should cost more. I’d rather not see a generic recipe for all precusers, or a token you trade to a merchant for whatever one you want. Instead, i’d rather see the weapon type incorporated into the crafting, like it really costing 400 exotic greatswords to craft it. Instead of RGN using the forge you would craft with these. I think the purpose of adding crafting is to avoid RGN, not make them cheaper.

I don’t agree with any of your points. You shouldn’t be able to put precursor on the TP in the first place in my opinion. Devalues people who have legendaries in the first place when they pay real money to get one.

RNG is a bad mechanic. Some people get lucky while others have to spend 5x the amount because they didn’t get lucky. It’s dumb and should have been changed a while ago.

Like I said, I’d be willing to spend 200 or 300g to craft precursor, anything more than that is overkill. I don’t give a crap about the market because I don’t think these things should be on the market in the first place.

You bought your precursor for 700g, that’s your problem. Even if I had 3x that mch gold to spend I wouldn’t spend that much on a precursor. There is no skill or effort involved in getting one its just random dumb luck and I won’t give that much effort spent in getting that much gold to someone who got randomly lucky. I don’t agree with it. If you’re mad that you spent so much when they may make it much easier to get precursor then that’s your problem. You were willing to spend that much on it, I’m not willing to give someone that much gold because they got luckier than me, and there’s plenty of people who share that opinion.

Precursor crafting should be released THIS YEAR, before ascended armor. Here’s why.

1. Ascended armor is a waste of development time.
2. The stats make upgrading to ascended armor worthless, for example the zerker stats don’t even increase % crit damage on ascended armor, its only +18 stats all together and no crit dmg.
3. The skins are ugly.
4. No one asked for ascended armor, people have BEEN ASKING for precursor crafting merely months after this game was released, and are STILL asking for it.
5. There is NO PURPOSE or function to ascended armor at all; whereas adding precursor crafting actually has a purpose by fixing RNG broken gameplay which a lot of people hate, (they hate rng) myself included.
6. Ascended armor doesn’t actually serve any function or purpose whatsoever, whereas precursor crafting actually fixes broken gameplay and is something people want.

Simply put Anet developers, I see no reason why precursor crafting is not taking priority over anything else you people are releasing. It’s something people have been begging gets changed for a long time. Ascended armor is an update that nobody really asked for, it serves no purpose, doesn’t improve gameplay and in fact makes it worse in my opinion, and is frankly a complete waste of development time because of these reasons.

Priority-content releases for this game should be updates that fix broken/weak parts of this game and is something that players ask for from developers. Precursor crafting falls into both of those categories.

Quite frankly I don’t know if I can wait longer than 1-2 months for precursor crafting because its something that should have been fixed in this game months ago and the fact that you’re telling me and everyone else that it may not happen by the end of this year, that something as dumb and inconsequential as ascended armor may have priority over it, is ridiculous.

Now that I know for sure that precursor crafting may be a reality one day, I don’t know if I can keep playing this game longer than 2 months knowing that you people at ANET are this incompetent. Precursor crafting should have been a priority and it should have been released months ago.

I have 500g now, I’ve crafted my gift of metal, gift of mastery, I nearly have enough mats to craft the other gifts for twilight, I certainly have the gold for it… but no. You’re asking me, and everyone else in the same situation, to continue playing the game with this problem sitting in our faces for more than 2 additional months. Are you crazy?

You know creating the legendary is all we think about every time we’re salvaging rares for globs or opening our bank tabs or opening the TP, at least it’s all I think about. So asking us to sit there and take it for longer than 2 months is more like asking us to wait an eternity for something that should have been FIXED already. Not to mention what ridiculous hoops you’re going to make us jump through to craft the precursor itself.

I quit this game for 4 months a while ago because I dropped like 300g in the mystic toilet and got nothing. I put exactly 200g in rare greatswords and 100g in purely exotic gs and didn’t get precursor. I came back with a determined resolution. Honestly, I think I’ll have to quit again unless we get some better news than “It’s still on our drawing board” when something as inconsequential as ascended armor has priority over broken gameplay (mystic toilet), it crosses the line.

I don’t understand how some people can put 30g worth into toilet and get precursor but others put 200g+ and get nothing. This needs to be changed NOW. Not later, not 2 months later. NOW anet. Nobody cares about ascended armor.

PS: For future reference I hope achievement points have nothing to do with getting your precursor. Doing something you are forced to do (# of achievements for POINTS), that you have to intentionally go out of your way to do, is not good gameplay. I finished the story, I got 100% world completion, I’ve done every single dungeon in the game, if I have to get +3000 points in achievements or something insanely lame that forces me to go out completely of my way to craft a precursor I’ll probably quit the game if I haven’t already quit by the time we can actually craft it.

oh, didn’t realize i had to buy it lol. thx

i have 500 weaponsmithing, 400 jeweler.

It won’t let me create gift of metal using mystic forge. The 250 orichalcum ignots appear to be incompatable with darksteel and platinum when trying to put them in the forge.

-edit- I tried restarting the game, still didn’t work.

-edit- I tried reactivating weaponsmith to see if that would do anything but no change. This is highly annoying…

Draknar.5748:

My 2cents: bring the skins back, keep them as difficult to get as they were last year.

I don’t see why that’s a problem. Obviously they were horrible RNG items, so what difference does it make if everyone has the same terrible RNG chance to get them this year as they did last year?

I’ve been here since Day 1, did all of the Halloween content, tried everything in my power to get The Crossing, but was not smiled upon by the RNG gods. So if those against having them come back are basically saying to me that I didn’t deserve it back then, even though I’m pretty sure I tried significantly harder to get it than some of the people who got lucky and got one, then you are all kittenholes. I should be allowed to beat the RNG pinata every year for a limited time to try and get those skins.

It’s a holiday event, not Living Story. The skins should be attempt-able every year on that Holiday. That would be the logical way to do it, not create completely new skins every year on that Holiday.

No, Don’t make getting the skins as difficult as last year. Last year was a catastrophe that I hope to never repeat in this game again and the forums were in an outrage about it which is probably why EVERY CONTENT UPDATE after halloween was done differently. This halloween is no exception. WE’re gonna be able to CRAFT the skins this time and that’s how it should have been done last year.

Paying REAL money to GAMBLE on skins ??? No one wants that.

Henge.3907:

I think if the old skins did come back they should cost like 20 tickets a piece. They were a 1 time thing but I still thing that if you want to obtain them it should cost you ALOT or buy them for whatever the TP price is.

They are not a 1 time thing, and it should not cost any BLC tickets. You should be able to craft the skins during the season when the content is actually released. After that when the season ENDS it should be BLC tickets only if ANET decides to do that.

The ONLY reason the prices were so high in the TP was because you had to spend real money in order to get these skins in the first place because it was RNG chance from BLC chests.

They should have never been able to be posted in the TP in the first place. ANET’s mistake.

Either way, I see NO REASON for them not to bring back all the skins from last year. Last year was a FIASCO and EVERYONE was mad at ANET for making the skins RNG out of BLC chests. Nobody could get them, only the pay2win kids did. This is ANETs chance to redeem itself for last years fiasco and I hope we can craft the skins we want this time.

Yaki.9563:

Shelledfade.6435:

it would have made more sense to make 10-man dungeons with more difficult content.

It’s hard to respect your opinion when you think that just having more people makes a dungeon/raid harder.

There’s only so much you can do when the game has no trinity. Making things require more coordination with more people is the only thing they can do to increase difficulty, otherwise its all the same, dodge when you’re supposed to dodge. Rinse and repeat.

Honestly the only way I see them making things more difficult is to release content that is more of the same just longer, or requires more coordination to complete. You can only do so much when there is no trinity (heal/tank).

I have a serious question.

Why is all the cool looking armor they release for town clothing only and why are they releasing skins like ascended armor that we can actually use in combat, look like absolute crap? … ???

I’m just saying this seems to be a trend they are following lately and its highly annoying.

The skins are horrible. Both weapons and armor. The greatsword is of “decent” quality. For the mats that went into it I expected more affects on it. The other weapon skins other than the greatsword are terrible.

The ascended armor skins are REALLY bad. They should be reworked. I understand ANET’s logic in making them look like crap, so people do other things for better looking armor in the game. Still though, if you’re making something that is superior over ALL exotic armor in the entire game it should at least LOOK good.

Handling of ascended gear overall is bad. The entire fractal dungeon itself, where agony resistance is ONLY used in the ENTIRE GAME and it only drops ascended rings, no earrings, no armor, no amulets.

..LOL. Anyone care to explain the failed logic behind that one?

Wait, don’t bother… There is no explanation for that logic fart.

Ascended gear itself hurt this game badly. There was no point to it at all. If they wanted to release higher tier gear than exotic then it would have made more sense to make 10-man dungeons with more difficult content. Fractals isn’t any harder than CoF or CoE to be blunt.

Seems to me they tried to give some players that were complaining about the game being too “short” something to do and they didn’t really think it through at all. Now we’re all in this mess.

Also, I barely spent any money crafting from 400 to 500 weaponsmith. I had all the materials myself other than the stuff the vendor sells. That isn’t really an issue though, My issue is if we can craft this stupid ascended gear which barely serves any purpose at all in the game why the HELL can’t we craft our precursor yet ???

Seems like ANET has its priorities completely backwards regarding what the community wants and asks for on a daily basis.

Don’t worry, precursor crafting is on the drawing board, but we’re gonna get ascended armor first which NOBODY asked for, looks like absolute poop, and serves absolutely no purpose at all!

AWESOME!

Thanks anet. Not.

quaggan would be a bad idea. They’re too…. lame. Only word for it.

This is coming from someone who has an 80 asura, so my standards are already low.

The thing is… those dungeon tokens that you get for doing the dungeon are for level 80 items only, so yeah…. It’s a shame there are no low level dungeons for new players, but yeah… your best bet is to level to 80 then start doing dungeons.

People just don’t want to carry other people who aren’t holding their own weight. The difference between a level 35 and a level 80 in exotics is huge… even AC.

The story was good, I mean I finished it twice on two different characters and I enjoyed the asura and charr roads.

However, the rewards at the end were really quite terrible.

I don’t really have a negative view on it. It helped make leveling easier due to lack of boredom grinding average quests, so yes not a problem in my opinion. I don’t care about it but I think it served a useful purpose while leveling.

heh heh. I went to teq twice just to see if anyone was doing it recently. I was the ONLY one there, and I play on a high pop server as well.

You can’t make content that hard for a public event and expect people to participate in it. Raid content does not belong in public event content I’m sorry but it just doesn’t work and the proof is there. It’s a ghost town.

If you want to make difficult RAID content then make it a guild event. It has no place in public events where there is little coordination and many people who go to public events are under geared. That has to be factored into the equation.

How this even became a reality in the game is disturbing because it makes ANET look incompetent.

Also, its nearly impossible to make difficult content that isn’t utilized by the classic trinity tank/healer/dps. This game doesn’t have that, so trying to make encounters “hard” is basically impossible because nobody has to worry about heals or agro or tanks so all your left with is the actual encounter and the only thing they can throw at us is coordinated tasks, which is impossible for public events, which is why teq was such a big flop.

Until they start making support classes much more desired in dungeons/events I don’t think any content will ever be hard in this game. You can only do so much when there is no trinity and at the same time trying to do something for a public event. Unfortunately this teq update was a waste of development time.

Warrior is fine, what should be happening is condition dmg should not be as bad as it is and the other classes that are sub-par should be brought to the warriors level of usefulness. There’s no point in nerfing any class in any way, improving the others is what should be happening.

I think guardian and warrior are the two most balanced classes, with ele/thief following a close 3rd. I don’t play ranger or engi but from what I’ve seen in groups they seem relatively weak and not very useful at all.

Necromancer needs some better bleed traits. Considering they’re technically supposed to be masters of conditions I duno why other classes can stack conditions quicker. Necros traits are relatively weak regarding blood/poison/fire compared to other classes and that needs a buff for sure. 25 caps should be removed.

Personally I don’t think there should be ANY caps on abilities like vulnerability or bleed. It makes skills that people are using in groups and large events completely useless which is just lame when you think about it. It makes the game feel more like a gimmick of what’s actually happening on the playing field.

And its not just me. My group is on fractal 38 and all of us keep getting massive lag and dcing its ridic..

What the hell is going on my group is DCing left and right in FoTM 3rd fractal level 38. It is super annoying.

I Have skins and I don’t want you to be able to get them

Oh booo hooo.

All the skins should be attainable in some way. If they want to ADD addition skins to what was already there last year then I’m all for it, but replacing skins from last year with completely different skins would make way too many people mad, myself included.

Those skins last year were practically impossible to get unless you wanted to spend real money, which is why last year was a huge upset and the forums were crazed about it, probably why they’re going to allow us to craft weapons this year instead.

A lot of people didn’t get what they wanted last year because they didn’t want to spend real money on a gambling system (BLC). It was basically pay2win and pay2fail at the same time.

So, A LOT of people are looking forward to this year in the hopes they can get the skins that they literally could not get last year because nobody could get them because nobody wanted to spend cash on RNG. So replacing the skins with different ones would be hitting an old hornets nest and I don’t think ANET want’s that.

Those people that have greatsword chainsaw skins on the TP and other skins like ghastly shield for 200g+ need to GET OVER IT. Just like the precursor guys crying because you are EXPLOITING a system that was designed poorly by anet. I am actually thoroughly shocked that they did not make these halloween skins and precursors account bound a LONG time ago. It would have solved a plethora of problems.

You can trade Candy Corn for new Halloween items like a Mini Bloody Prince, a 20-slot Halloween Pail, and special crafting items needed for Halloween weapons!

Is there still going to be mystery tonic mad king chest crafting like last year or did they actually change it around? It says use candy corn for special crafting items needed for halloween weapons so I’m assuming it was changed but it never hurts to ask.

If we can craft this stuff instead them I’m all for it because last year it was impossible to get any of the skins unless you wanted to spend real money on RNG black lion chests, and we can all remember how that turned out…. get yer pitchforks and whatever else u can throw … yeah.

So, here’s to hoping for the best. Also, I really hope they didn’t replace any of the skins. Those skins were kitten and I want an actual chance to get one this time.

Have No Faith In Me.1840:

@ OP, I have 1100g atm and I don’t want to buy dusk off the TP for 800g either.

Why should I give away a huge sum of money to some idiot who had sheer dumb luck bless them? What a joke. I got zap from forge, but I bought howl for 200g (which pushes the border of acceptable).

My thoughts exactly.

it will get implemented. i fear how.

probably legendary worth of materials for precursor.

I wouldn’t mind spending 200-300g in mats to craft it.

I’m more afraid of how much bullcrap we’re gonna have to go through in ascended materials for it. Dragonite ore is painful to acquire. I don’t like doing those events.

Can you imagine if Dusk/Dawn were 200-300g each? You would see double the amount of Twilights and Sunrises. If Anet introduces precursor crafting and it costs this little to make 1, legendaries will become more common than abyss dye.

Stop wanting legendaries to be easier than they already are. You’re already complaining about doing events for dragonite ore. When precursor crafting comes around you’ll complain about it costing 500g+ 3 weeks of timegating

So what? 800g is too much and there is nothing legendary about that when other people spend barely anything and get them because they got lucky with RNG.

300g is plenty to spend on a precursor. Play a different game if u don’t like that or go horde 800g again.

If it was too much, I wouldn’t have sold my last 4 Dusks for 800g.

300g is plenty to spend on a precursor. You’re right. In fact, there are a few on the TP listed for around 300g right now. Sadly, they are worth 300g because they aren’t highly demanded. Who’s fault is it that Twilight/Sunrise/The Legend are the top 3 most demanded legendary weps?

Precursor crafting will fix nothing apart from giving people a surefire way to obtain their precursor. That’s what people want and I hope Anet slaps us in the face with it.

oh you sold your last FOUR dusks for 800g huh ? LOL way to make up some ridiculous bull story in order to make a point of no consequence.

Yup. I’v gotten 28 total precursors from the forge. Sorry, do you want me to log on and screenshot my last 4 Dusk sales? I’ll do it just for you if you don’t believe me. You sound really bummed out about having the face the truth that people ‘’too much’’ for things that they want.

Oh, 28 precursors from the forge huh, while other people like myself who have probably put more gold in the forge and got nothing, and you’re sitting here defending this bad system.

Ridiculous bullcrap. Also 28 precursor? LOL, no I don’t believe you sorry.

I highly doubt that you have spent more gold in the forge than I have. Actually, round up your friends and guild members, add up what all of you have dropped into the forge and maybe it will be half of what I spent

I’ll log in later tonight and SS my last 4 Dusk sales.

go for it, keep trolling. And I’ll hypothesize just for the sake of it that if this is true then you’re the reason why its completely broken by monopolizing on a system that is broken by only rewarding lucky individuals, and not those who actually EARN their keep.

This is why ANET needs to fix this precursor mess before this ascended armor crap that nobody even asked for.

You should not be able to buy/sell precursors or legendaries in the first place.
