Blocki.4931 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 So the highly anticipated Greatsword will be the last of the Gen 2 Legendaries to be released and it surely has built up some expectations. What do you guys think will the weapon's theme be? I've seen comments (especially after Rytlock's short story) that we might get a Sohothin + Magdaer double legendary, which we will be able to combine into a "Destiny's Edge", which sounds so over the top that it quickly became one of my favorite ideas as well. I doubt that we will get another triple legendary GS, but maybe that's exactly why it is the very last weapon that gets released. Will we get another Fire themed weapon? Balthazar's Greatsword (it has a gemstore skin, but that doesn't have to mean anything since it doesn't have any fancy effects) would come to mind and was rumored around the start of PoF. The "Stellar" theme is kinda done already thanks to our beautiful Gen 1 Greatswords and Astralaria is using the kind of effects I had in mind the first time I imagined the gen 2 Greatsword all those months ago. Could we be in for another Icy weapon? Or even a lightning based one? Personally I have had everything ready to craft it on day 1 for the last 2 episodes now and I will craft it even if I happen to strongly dislike the design.

derd.6413 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 the destiny's edge suggestion with sohothin is just stupid. but whatever it'll be it'd probably have some thematic ties to next episode (or the season in general) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I'm hoping for the 3 skritt in a trenchcoat to be a reailty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phs.6089 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 ![](https://i.imgur.com/S3RBpPY.gif"") prolly this with steaming effect. I kid, I kid. I really hope for something better. Otherwise I'll sell piled mats and swim in coins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwaz.1908 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Another fiery greatsword would be so cliche, and we already have so many (volcanus, molten, fused, etc...). I'd rather see something truly unique and one of a kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thehipone.6812 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Considering that we got a very human themed sword and a very charr themed dagger, I hope it is an asura themed greatsword that is super cheesy looking/joke legendary like a golem on a stick or something. Wouldn't surprise me to see a Glint-themed weapon though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather see something truly unique and one of a kind. Fully agree! Though I would be interested in what they can do with them if they amped those up to 11. > @"derd.6413" said: > the destiny's edge suggestion with sohothin is just stupid. > > but whatever it'll be it'd probably have some thematic ties to next episode (or the season in general) It's stupid, that's why I like it so much! Though it would probably upset more people than make them think "okay, cool". But taking only the last part: Craft "Destiny's Edge", as a testament to all the work we've put in, despite our failures, we have come a very long way and a legendary could perfectly tie into that. Now I really like that idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gehenna.3625 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Well I hope it's designed by the same people who designed Pharus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bast.7253 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Probably Destinys Edge and it will be some shard made from Kralk. And maybe have the charr dagger draw animation but with ghosts of the destinys edge crew or something instead. Who knows though. Could be another chainsaw for all we know.

Alimar.8760 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I would like it to look nice, but not like i'm wielding a giant piece of plywood again. Make it thin? Too many great swords are stupidly oversized imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teratus.2859 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 As long as it doesn't look like the hideous graphic bug looking ones that are in the game currently.. it'll be an improvement XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rysdude.3824 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Maybe branded themed. It’d be cool if you could fuse Eternity with the Gen 2 one though to create something really epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexZero.7910 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 A Wooden Row Boat Oar. I'm totally not making an homage to a certain fighting game by suggesting this.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palador.2170 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Well, the general pattern has been to alternate between silly and serious. So, I guess this one should be silly? Maybe some kind of gigantic, oversized buster sword, with little asuran rocket thrusters on it to help you swing it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vancho.8750 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 We might get Magdaer lore and create replica like the Shining blade. And don't start with it is one handed, the sword is basically light saber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlagueParade.7942 Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I know that magdaer was going to get fixed (honestly with it broken I would have thought new legendary dagger, fig. it would lead to logan and thus guardian getting dagger next) but I hope it's niether that or a mix of the two swords. I also hope it won't be themed to the episode either. I would have liked to have seen an asuran tech greatsword with a beam of light within changing colors and the footfalls being different colored strobe ligths that radiate out in a circle. And when you swing it each swipe (sort of like sunrise/twilight) is displays a different color. But this is a very silly idea. For something more serious and if it is themed over the episode I hope it'll be a slimmer greatsword. Either way i'll be making this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julius Seizure.4985 Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Greatsword has 3x “cool” legendary weapons already. That means be prepared for a “joke/funny” legendary model. My money is on a giant flexible banana leaf that gives you a cool monkey tail. >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quarktastic.1027 Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I'm betting Choya themed surfboard. Projectile skills now fling choya at your targets. Blade trails/footfalls are splashes of ~~salty tears~~ seawater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keymaster.7362 Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I could imagine the Greatsword is a Caladbolg 2.0 or has to do with Ventari's Tablet or something. The Sylvaris are the only playable race who are not involved in the gen 2 legendarys until now. The claw of the Khan-Ur is an ancient charr artifact, The shining blade is the symbol of a human elite force, Nevermore is connected with the raven spirit of the norn and hope is designed from the asura.

Stand The Wall.6987 Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 something lore related would be cool. maybe a shard of glint or kralks fang lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostrider.6879 Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019  You know it's name. I was surprised that the game didn't have a version of it already since it already got Mjölnir and Gungnir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
