This blog is aimed at helping all those that play Guild
Wars 2 and need a helping hand to guide them along the long path to a
legendary. It is a beautiful weapon that deserves respect and is admired by
all. Getting a legendary is a test of patience and many give up but if you
persist we can guarantee that you will get yours. This post will provide a
general overview of what is required for your legendary and where to start.
You will need:
Approximately 1 million karma
Map Completion
Around 431 Skill Points
500 Badges of Honour
250 Vicious Fangs
250 Vicious Claws
250 Powerful Venom Sacs
250 Vials of Powerful Blood
250 Ancient Bones
250 Piles of Crystalline Dust
250 Intricate Totems
250 Armoured Scales
Around 481 Globs of Ectoplasm
231 or more Mystic coins
A lot of gold
Your legendary specific precursor and its ‘Gift’
Gifts are large components of your legendary. All of the
items you collect will eventually be used to make a gift. The 3 main gifts that
you will combine with your precursor is the Gift of Fortune, Gift of Mastery and
your legendary specific gift which is named after the legendary you are going
for.
The legendary specific gift is guaranteed to need:
100 Icy Runestones (costing 1 Gold each)
500 tokens from a dungeon
A superior sigil
2 Gifts
One example of a legendary specific goft is the Gift of Twilight used to make the
legendary greatsword Twilight. It requires:
- Gift of Darkness which needs:
250 Orichalcum ingots
250
Cured Hardened Leather Sections
100
Onyx Lodestones
Gift of Ascalon (bought with
500 tears of Ascalon)
- Gift of Metal
- 100 Icy Runestones
- Superior Sigil of Blood
Many people struggle to figure out where to start and
after much experience it was determined that the best place to start is with
your dungeon gift as it is often the easiest unless the dungeon you need to run
is Arah, in which case good luck. When you are not busy with that you should
work towards your Bloodstone shard which is bought from Miyani for 200 Skill
Points, followed by your 77 Clovers for your Gift of Fortune and then the 250
Obsidian shards for your Gift of Mastery. Also, check how many hours your legendary takes you by checking you character and account's age at the start. This is done by typing "/age" in the chat bar.
New posts will be posted soon where we will focus on the
details of all the gifts, the easiest ways to get them, how make over 100
thousand karma a day and many other tips and tricks learnt thought the months.
We will also be posting about non legendary related things to help you conquer
dungeons, slaughter hordes of foes in WvWvW and how to play the market.
