No one knows all of the details yet. Man, people need to take a chill pill.
Its 2g62s. In line with charge lodestone. Still expensive tho.
“Lucky” precursor-sellers mad. Legendary holders got “lucky” with a precursor and are now mad because they may not feel special. We don’t even know what the change is yet so chill. I <3 you Anet.
And what about those who farmed it all by themselves with no luck? Jealous people ruin every game after a while.. sigh
What about those who farmed for it all by themselves and spent all there money on the forge and got no precursor? People who want to be special try to ruin every game. sigh
Tough kitten better luck next time? Buy it off the AH? There’s more than 1 option you know…
Be fair if they make the precursor recipe 300-400G lol
I mean the idiots who want precursor to have recipe’s biggest concern is the RNG system. Well give them a stable recipe but make it 400g lol, Anet would already satisfy half of their concerns. If they were actually reasonable they wouldn’t complain about that after. By the current item standards A precursor at 300g-400g is pretty reasonable, i mean come on lodestones and some T6 mats cost loads of gold lol
Make the recipes 350G per and call it a day. If you want a legendary, you either grind it or buy Gem to get gold.
lol at people wanting compensation. Here you were laughing at all the people who gambled 1000g on the MF and lost, but you were all smug because you got your pre-cursor.
Well guess what, you gambled that they wouldn’t become easier to get and YOU lost. Guess you guys know how it feels to the rest of us now.
You could of bought two precursors with 1000g…just saying.
We’ve received a large amount of feedback about Legendaries becoming unreachable. This is actually a topic we’ve been tracking for quite some time. To ease your minds I am here to say that it’s something we’ve been watching and we’ve been listening to your feedback. You can expect to begin to see changes addressing the issue starting with our next build.
John,
That’s a big slap in the face to people who currently have the precursor(s). As you are aware, there are two ways to get Legendaries; (i) craft it via the Mystic Forge, (ii) buy it off the Trading Post.
I will not speak to the issue regarding obtaining precursor via the Mystic Forge as I have accepted ANET’s method on how to craft it – basically, chance based. However, I want to talk about people who used gold to buy precursor.
I’m not a lucky guy, and I personally know that the house always win. So, I decided to buy it from the Trading Post. It was selling for 400g. A month back, you can get 10g per roughly 1500 Gems. I bought over 750$ of Gem and exchanged it for gold. Bought another 250$ worth of Gem to get crafting materials. In total, I spend 1000$ for my precursor. While I might get flame for spending that much money for gem/gold, this is part of the game mechanic which is intended and encourage as it generate revenue for GW2 to fund future content release and other things such as general expenses.
If the drop rate or method of obtaining precursor is change to make it easier to get (not sure what is intended), this set a precedent that discourage gem buying.
My question to you Peter is will I be refunded for my gem purchases since ANET DIRECTLY change the difficulty of obtaining a precursor thus influencing the selling price of it on the TP? Will there be any consideration given to people who bought gem to buy precursor? As mentioned above, this set a precedent and you can bet I won’t spend another dime on the gem shop.
