Guild Wars 2

Ok so i have been thinking about what i would like to see in obtaining a precursor.

Slay Every dragon and elite boss for the gift of courage, Complete the story line for gift of friendship. Slay 1500 (more or less i don’t wvw so i don’t know if its much) For gift of Might Then Eldrich scroll, 250 vials of powerful blood, 250 globs of ectolasm and 250 obsidian for the Gift of Determination then combine these for Gift of unity.
Then Obtain:
1 gift of Ascencion
1 gift of Ascalon
1 gift of Battle
1 gift on unity
And that’s your precursor.
Some people will say that’s to much some will just disagree, but for me this gets you around the world and you get to experience alot more of Gw2s content Such as WvW, all the amazing boss battles they have added And last of all this give the feel that your actually working towards something Not just farming CoF p1 or Gathering mats to waste on the MF.

Edit: Also they will be account bound if you obtain them this way!

i wouldn’t by all means want the precursor to be easily obtained nor everyone have them but if there was a way of knowing all the hard work your putting in gave you something in return would be alot of motivation then wasting 1000’s of greatswords in the MF Because my luck stinks.
And i should assume that you could get a precursor from fractles i don’t see why they wouldn’t.

All I can say to this, Is I completed story mode, killed an undead dragon that was “terrorizing” the world, If THAT isn’t worth getting a precursor but killing some random mob in Orr is….something is seriously wrong with whomever thought this through.

Because completing the story is hard. The only problem I had with the story were the random crashes. Getting 500 gold for a precurser was much harder =)
Oh and yeah the dragons are also a joke.

@Topic
If you have so much money:
1. Buy lvl 80 rares from tp ( or craft them ) until your inventory is full
2. Go to the MF
3. Throw your rares in there until your inventory is full
4. Was there a precursor? No: Goto Step 1. Yes: End.
It is that simple.

Ok so this is the problem i have with precursors is that the ENTIRE process of obtaining one is just repetitive boring farming. Recently i have been asking most people i have seen with a legendary how they obtained there precursor, and any tips they could give me on getting one. Here is the answers i got

75% of the answers were “Buy a Zerker set and run CoF p1 every day 6hrs a day and you will get one in a few weeks”
20% Was I obtained one back when they were 80-200g
5% of the answers are “i got lucky with the mystic toilet”

Notice how non of these sound remotely fun and adventurous like obtaining a part of a legendary should be? I’m not at all saying they should be easy to obtain but i want to Explore and Complete Events and side quest all over Tyria for tokens or parts to forging Dawn, dusk or what ever precursor your looking for, i’m not giving any suggestions since there will always be a person to Disagree but for me throwing hours away into running the same dungeon again and again or farming mats to craft lvl 80 rares for them to vanish into nothing in front of you doesn’t sound like the Legendary adventure a Legendary weapon deserves.
