DanAlcedo.3281 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Hi guys. Just looked at the new leg. Ring collection. I dont care much but i thought the forum would explode because of this..... http://img.picshare.at/1511934203_why.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashantara.8731 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Why would anyone "explode" over this? HoT legendaries are also only accessible to HoT owners, so there is nothing wrong with PoF legendaries to be accessible only to people who have invested money to buy this expansion.

Crossaber.8934 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 So more and more good stuff locked behind Raid, looks like the game is no longer the original GW2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raid Bosses to unlock is the problem here. Raiders : where do all the noobs come from? Noobs : we want the ring Raiders : you dont care about the game mode right? Noob : no and why should i? Raiders : Thx anet. Oh! Can we get a WvW Leg. Trinket thats need hours and hours of grind? Me as a WvW Player would LOOOOOVE even more pip farmer.

FitzChevalerie.1035 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 You don't need 10 raid kill you need 1. The 10 is the number of items in the collection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OriOri.8724 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Look, no matter how much you hate raids, if you have the gold to craft a leg ring, then you have the gold to flat out buy a raid boss kill if you are too lazy to gear up and train to get a kill yourself. I don't really see what the problem is here, considering that the main bonus of this is an aura (probably, though it might not have an aura who knows yet?).

FogLeg.9354 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Getting Ascended trinkets is so easy and Leg only adds some visual effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulf.3098 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 You can just do Escort which isn't even really a raid boss to get the collection. Super easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osby.5390 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 It makes me sad they would again lock a legendary behind Raids again catering for a very small part of the community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohoni.6057 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Does it have a unique skin attached? If not I can't be bothered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrubySzymek.1362 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 It's actually better to just farm LW3 maps for trinkets instead of making legendary ones. Especially that we dont have build templates after 5 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether you think it should be promoted or not doesn't change the fact that requiring a raid boss kill is not blocking the leg ring from anyone that can afford it. If you can afford it, then you can afford a boss kill, regardless of whether you personally agree with that method or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dashiva.6149 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Disappointing, but not really suprising to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usnedward.9023 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Legendary items are for Legendary people IMO. What does this mean? It means that people put time and effort into grinding whatever they have to grind to get the Legendary shinies. Simple as that or we would all be running around with legendary items. Personally I do not own a single legendary item. I have no desire to put the effort into it. I play to play and though I wish I could have some of those Legendary items I just can't focus my time towards it so...... I don't have one. No issue.

Kapax.3801 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 The raids already have the legendary armors, this was not necessary, it must have been like the legendary trinket, a special item of each episode to unlock the collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 The original legendary weapons required a bit of everything that was in the game at the time (except PvP) and the requirements have been adjusted over time to maintain that. Why should the new ones be any different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirlias.8104 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 The only outrage is that we have to proceed exp by exp instead making multiple items in order to complete the set. I can understand because of aesthetic... but what about something for those who cares about QoL and don't care about aura effects? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyingK.9720 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Instanced content has always been a weak point in GW2, so it's no surprise to hear that people want to avoid it. Even moreso games like WildStar that are all about raiding are dieing off fast, people just aren't interested in hobbies being a full time commitment anymore. GW2 started off as the beacon for casual self paced gameplay, maybe Anet should consider adding OWPvE routes since that's the one aspect of the game that's been pretty solid from day one.

Daniel.5428 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 As a person who raided since day 1 and who had all needed material for legendary set even before they introduced it (yes, I crafted the legendary armor first 10 minutes after release) I can tell you that I am very very dissapointed. I plan to do the new wing for the story, but I would have like if the legendary world was locked behind the maps of LS4, like Aurora was for LS3. My engi has all possible legendary items at this moment and I will do the same for ring too, but I still will never agree with all this locking accesorries behind raid. Raids had their legendary armor, Story maps should have had their legendary trinkets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirlias.8104 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Why should you pretend an item locked behind an ongoing content? Aurora was a total fail due to druidic runestones and hearts farm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
