Precursor crafting, more like gold sink simulator.

In Everquest, circa 2000, they had Epic weapons. They were a massive time sink, and for many simply impossible to attain due the amount of time needed in a single block to camp the named mob's, required to kill, for the drop you required. I think you had to be a little masochistic to attempt it, but of course a lot of people did. To me there was nothing remotely epic about them, they were just a huge waste of time.
12 years later Anet releases GW2 and it's version of epic weapons. The attaining of them is a little better, even a "casual" could eventually obtain one, but they are still a massive time sink. Grinding is now called "farming" but it amounts to the same thing. If you are masochistic enough to try to make one, well done!
As for me, 17 years on, I feel the same about way about legendary's as I did about epics, got better things to do with my time.
