I agree with you! I think it makes sense to add all the legendary stuff to all game modes including spvp. With the onset of new xpacs every year for the foreseeable future this could be a nice hook for launch or quarterly updates like the legendary relic this go round. I personally wish they would add something like profession armor to raids by wing (like some wow raid armor) to bring more players into the raid fold. It would be a great way to use LI after wrapping everything up. If resources are tight with the new xpac model they could even do a community event to have player design raid armor for wing 1 to kick things off. (I've been dreaming on something like this for a while haha!)

"Other than the visual effect I couldn't tell you what the point is of having even one legendary ring, you can literally get free ascended rings with every stat" For me each legendary piece I have has been a journey. It has given me such joy over 11 years chasing these. It took me at least half a year each chasing aurora and vision at a casual pace. I've got almost 700 LI from raids and enjoyed all the statics and friends I made along the way since they came out in 2015. I've also pugged half of my LI after getting my first set since it's easier to link the armor to get into groups. You get some crap groups but overall, it's been more enjoyable than not. I've got a friends list full of raiders I met along the way from pugs. (and some people on my block list too haha!) Like others mentioned the convenience factor is also a super nice bonus since the armory went live a few years ago. I personally run multiple specs on multiple characters for raids or whatever and would love to complete the convenience factor for that ring slot. I know I could pick it up in other game modes (I chased the pvp back for example) but also that hope on the visual completion is something I'm holding out for as well with a pve set. If you haven't tried chasing a legendary I would highly recommend giving aurora or vision a shot to start out, that or do one of the story Gen 2 weapons mentioned above. You need some patience getting through some parts, but its worth it imo!

I personally loved getting the pve accessories and the raid legendary ring over the years. The return achievements leading to the legendary amulet got me super excited to see a completion of the trinkets set in pve, but it's been a while since I saw any rumor or news. Has there been any talk or hints of doing something like vision or aurora for a legendary ring in any previous content released after LS4, or maybe hinted in an upcoming expansion? The journey I had obtaining the LSW 3 & 4 legendary accessories was one of many highlights I've had with this game since launch. I felt I really got to explore every map in great detail. (Similar to how I feel masteries in SOTO are now!) I fondly look back on this and would love to see a ring that went back from Icebrood - Current; which could provide a deep dive back into those maps, or even incorporate some of the unused areas of all the maps going to back to core Tyria. I'm also really enjoying the collection for Hope right now, something like that could be incorporated for a new ring to give people a reason to go back to all the things. My last idea on this could be if they made another ring only obtainable through raids or partially through raids/strikes/fractals/open world, but it would be a double-edged sword. I Love the raids in this game but realize there is a barrier to entry for casual players without an LFR tier / automated group mechanic of sorts. (hint hint hahaha!) I would be open to anything really! I just want to get a new option for a legendary ring I can nab through pve. My secret hope is that it gives a new completed look to all the pve trinkets which I fondly enjoyed seeing upgrade as I got each new piece from lsw 3/4 and raids. (still hoping the amulet from return is part of the plan at the end too, just didn't have the same impact to the upgrade as the first 3.)

Has there been any talk of legendary armor conversions say from raid to open world? (keeping pve swaps in pve) This could open the door to finally coming up with a LFR tier raid with a longer runway to getting each legendary piece at a slower pace, but also lessening the open world grind with the ability to swap. Or maybe just light a fire back on the raid scene and development in general if swaps are a thing. I know I'm dreaming on all this but let me dream haha! I'm personally waiting to complete the medium set in raids to see how the skin looks compared to open world. I've got light and heavy already and love the look, but only the medium coat which feels like the whole look. I would love to swap it out for the open medium world coat and cash in my unused LI I'm saving if swaps are a thing.

I cannot wait for this; such a great idea. Guild Wars for real!!! Please let the first season come out at least 8 weeks before wow xpac. I would love for GW2 to absorb some of that wow population that used to play here while they are going through their down period of content. My hope is they love it enough to stay!

I just love everything that you all worked so hard on. The maps, the mounts, the secrets, the story. AMAZING! I literally have spent the last week in just awe and enjoyment. Keep Rocking On!
