3 sets of legendary armor is my guess.

Since I've been doing some intermittent raiding and accumulating LIs, I've toyed with the idea of making a set. Most of the steps I don't mind doing and would probably gather all the crap I anyways, albeit slowly/over time.

The provisioner token grind sucks so badly because it basically requires you to go out of your way and engage in some serious preplanning. It's a huge bottleneck.

It's 50 for each legendary armor piece. Funny thing is that I pretty much have everything else for two sets already. I've lost all motivation to do them for some reason.

It's not some reason, it's a very real reason. They are not just unfun, they are negative fun. It's hours of busywork that you have to prep for and execute across weeks, with no gameplay, just loading screens.

And if you point out why the system is bad you get crushed by shitlords who are all "I suffered through it, so you do it too"., or " you're just lazy and making excuses, you had months of warning and now you're a crying elitist, suck it".

I guess the moral of the story also is reddit sucks.

Don't you guys use gw2timer for the pact supply vendors? Just click once and it'll copy all the waypoints and the site will have a updated item list around 1 hour after reset.

I like things that are dumb.
On the subject of pact supply merchants, sorry if I'm completely missing the point (didn't sleep well) or if you all already know about this, but the wiki automatically updates where they're located each day and link to the closest waypoint too for convenience.

Hope this helps? :confuoot:
Sorry again if I'm accidently poo poo posting.

If you ever need someone semi experienced to sub in (or if any other groups need someone) hit me up - Vidmaster is my account name, look for Plowable Slampiglet or Dongfrenzy (or any of my boring named characters) in game. I have a fully ascended geared PS warrior (power but hopefully I'll get condi gear soon), power ele, and condi ranger. Raids are fun and I'd like to do more to finish the envoy armor collections, but also mostly gently caress pubbies.

All in all, the Mordrem are complete pushovers in comparison to the mushrooms (and raptors).

How do you suppose they're still alive and fighting against the might of Mordy's combined and coordinated forces? Of course they're more powerful.

The foefire shoulders look stupid with everything I previewed them alongside so I didn't bother with them but the handwraps aren't bad at all. They've got 4 dye channels (metal bits, the main wrapped cloth, the wristband and the runes themselves), the glowing runes pulse, the dangling bits have cloth physics and they add rings to both hands for added bling factor:


Do those channels actually change the color, though? Or is it like luminescent where it's still blue, but a different shade of blue?

Lurking more.
Is there a short list of "Ways you spend your time at 80 that you don't really do while leveling"? I have a level-80 boost that I'm not sure if I should use now, or level my 40-something guy up to 80 naturally first.

Any reason not to do it, and just play in other areas scaled down?

it's so white I can't even see my chaos greatsword's blade now.

It's also a really expensive dye so guess I'm going to be saving for months.

If it's your first time playing I'd say just do it normally. There's lots to explore!

for a first time character you really should just level normally to get a better feel for the flow of the game. unlike other mmos it doesn't take a limb or two to max one out, and you can save level boosts for fresh characters once you know more about what's going on.

They actually change the colour, those were gold before I dyed them blue to match the highlights on my character's skirt.

I'll take a better picture with them dyed bright clashing colours so you can see the dye channels when I get home from work.
