not trying to sound too negative, but i hope this statement:

doesn't translate to, "grind 1,000's of hours until you have all the mats to throw together in the forge." along with all the other mindless grinding needed to complete a legendary. there's literally nothing involved in getting a legendary that FEELS legendary so far. i hope whatever we have to do involves some difficulty and some feeling of being rewarded, not just with what we gain, but what we have to do gameplay-wise.

with all that said, though, at least they're doing something about this train wreck of a situation.

were you running the hammer build or something else?

i finally got tired of stockpiling gold since i had nothing to spend it on, so i figured i'd start throwing rares into the forge again in hopes of getting a precursor. i've had everything to make Bitfrost for many months now, and i've put probably 150-200 gold into rares trying to get The Legend up until now, but no luck. i stopped caring, and even now, i still don't care.

so, i take out the 144 gold in my bank and start buying rare staffs. i re-forge all rares and sell all exotics (except for four, which i figured i'd throw in together). after about 100 gold worth of failed attempts, i switch to greatswords, since i kinda want Twilight for my warrior and i could just use the gifts of mastery and fortune for it. needless to say, all of the greatsword attempts were fails too.

i'm out of gold now, but whatever. the highlight of the night was getting two Deathwishes in a row, but other than that...just another day of getting screwed over by Anet's fun-filled quest for a legendary.

i would agree with CoE. i just earned about 9 gold from 4 runs of it. i got pretty lucky with the charged cores.

i have about 132g in my bank and nothing to spend it on. i was thinking i might as well go for the precursor in the forge, since it's all i need to make my legendary. not sure if i want to go with 80 rares or 70+ exotics, though. i can see the arguments for both sides.
