Thanks a lot ANET staff ! I trust you for keeping this legendary anyway.
To the bad trolls : we don’t want an EASIER way to get them, but a challenged based method, not just spending tons of gold. I want feeling glad after a long and hard journey
Once upon a time someone talked about a game with non-annoying and non-repetitive tasks… You’ll read this another time but please : add another way to get these unholy precursor weapons. I’m so bored to see new ppl getting them randomly when i try hardly to get only once. 820 hours played and nothing. In GW1, with tormented weapons, It was much more challenge than this stupid RNG system. Anyway, I’m not really convinced you will read our lines.
I’m losing hope … Please throw us a bone or something and consider this as a S.O.S. message
I think making exotics out of rares are 20%. so there are X number of different exotics, we need 2*X/5*4 number of rares to make pre-cursors greatsword.
That’s not true… I used to throw multiple (randomly or not) gold items in the forge and I obtained all the exotics you can get (some multiple times) and the only kind I did’nt have are the precursor exotics..
I heard something from a guy who get his precursor so i decided to try it : throwing 4 exotic with superior sigil on rage on it.
Strangely, on 2 tries I got 2 exotics with another superior sigil of rage on it. Maybe it’s the way… Anyway, sigils seems to have an influence on the output.
I’m not of this kind of players yelling : “I’ll leave the game” or “I spent all my money and did’nt get anything” or “It’s the only end-game content”. For me, the game will only start after getting my first legendary.
I threw around 2400 golds items in the forge (even if i play the game normally too with making some dungeons, jumping puzzles, wvw,etc) but i keep saving some gold (100g). I have no problem with RNG, but i refuse this unfair/inequal system.
You can play more than 1000 hours and never get a single precursor while another guy who has played 150 hours will have 2 of them.
Is the game rewarding ppl for their skills ? Absolutely not, and It should be the case..
A nice idea would be adding legendary precursors as a possible loot from jumping puzzles chests, because they lose their interest after completed once for most of them (maybe because of the non-interesting items in chests). I’d like to see more ppl do jumping puzzles so please read this and think about it
It seems to have 2 kinds of ppl in this game : some get a precursor after first try, and the others spent 2000+ gold items in the forge and will just never have one. Nice
I made some statistics and for me, it’s around 26% to get exotic with golds items. Zommoros gave me 150 exotics and no precursor in sight. I agree with the fact it’s a loss in the long run !
600+ hours played , 1400 items in the forge. What’s the result ? Nothing at all. When I see people getting it so easily, it makes me crazy! I have the feeling that i wasted lot of time.
Everything in this game is about random: put random items in the Mystic Forge and you will have a random chance to get a random item. Kill a random mob and MAYBE you will have a chance to get your precursor. It is very frustrating if it’s your main goal in the game, and excuse me, but it’s more like Lucky Weapons than Legendary Weapons…
