I’m just getting more and more angry as I’m reading this post, especially with trolls blabbing about how many precursors they had dropped. I completed most of the stuff for my Twilight a long time ago. Now I have those “awesome” gifts to show for. I quit yet again after reading this post… I’m just gonna go casual and not concentrate on the Legendary hunt… There really isn’t any feeling of accomplishment when it comes to randomly getting that “magic drop”. Starting today I’m done with “hoping for drop”, done with “saving gold and telling myself no on stuff I want to buy over and over again” and last, but not least I AM DONE with “Magic Find equipment and food”. I’m creating a class that will make me the best possible player I can be, and thus spend my time doing fractals and dungeons with my friends for FUN. No more feeling neglected and reading about other people with more luck than RNG should ever allow. It’s time to start playing the game on my terms. So in a way, Thanks guys!
I felt EXACTLY like this not too long ago but don’t give up just yet. I had my 3 gifts since October, sitting there looking pretty and lost hope because I refused to farm a horribly high amount of gold to buy it off the TP. At one point I wished I could have gotten all my mats back from the gifts so I didn’t put all that effort in for nothing. So I decided to play my luck whenever I had a small chunk of gold like 30-40g and just toss rares into the forge (was going for The Legend). Not a single precursor for months, and the sad part is I must had already tossed 450g+ into the forge. Just last month I decided randomly to try with exotics. I tried with rifle exotics because they were just over 1g each and the precursor was going for 480g at the time. Second try i got The Hunter. Sold it and basically got my money back and just farmed the rest of the gold for The Legend. I can’t promise that you’ll encounter the same situation but I can say it was pretty awesome finally getting my legendary, but more importantly I felt like playing the game again more often…and I wouldn’t consider myself lucky either, I basically broke even, even if it took months. Still ended up buying The Legend on the TP though >.<
Now with the makeover kits available I figure this is as good a time as any to bring this up. Where did this hairstyle go? Did it not make it into the game? Before the game came out this picture floated around and I completely fell in love with that particular female hairstyle for my Mesmer. Sadly on launch day I was disappointed it was not available. Ditto to the armor as well.

I am one of those “lucky” ones that has already gotten 2 rings. Unfortunately as Heavencloud has already stated in the opening post, both have stats that I do not desire to use. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m super grateful I got the rings but now they are going to waste simply because I don’t not care to use them on an alt. At this rate I would even trade both in for one I could use…or even gift them so at least they could get used by friends who need them.
The 10% on the black lion is for a chance at rare materials. The 100% is to get the upgrades. Is that not what you want to salvage? I use Mystic to salvage lvl 80 items for rare materials and use black lion for sigils/runes.
For the love of all that is good in the land, plz shut up vendors!

Yes I have to agree with this… the female Asura in Lions Arch at the tailoring area was driving me insane. There’s only so much of “Idea’s are like cream, good ones rise to the top” that I can take. I would prefer not to mute Jeremy Soule’s beautiful music

Try using a Black Lion Salvage Kit, it salvages upgrades at 100%, you may have just been really unlucky. You can buy it with gems or find it in black lion chests.
