So, basically, without putting any effort at all? I'm sorry, but, while i am usually the first to support casual paths for many things (including legendaries), i still think there's a certain minimum required. And what you propose is not only below that, but even below basic decency level. 2 hours ago, Chapell.1346 said: again 11k hours of gameplay experience (overtime not included).

And as others have pointed out, 11k hours of gameplay without these legendary gear shows extreme lack of focus/intent. That fault is on the individual, not the game or design.

Just a bit of quick wiki/TP math. To purchase all the Gen 1 Legendary Weapons, at present values at the point of this post, it would cost approximately 46,550G. That is quite sufficient of a gold sink in itself. But if that isn't enough for you and you deeply desire to throw more gold at the game, you are welcome to make every Gen 2 Legendary Weapon, purchasing each component instead of farming. You will just be slowed a bit with the necessity to acquire the clovers. STILL not enough gold sink? Why don't you considering the Gold to Gems feature and buy every account upgrade Anet offers on the gem store? Once you have all those, perhaps buy all ~71 character slots and unlock all character bound options for each one. Then you could dig into buying every single skin available through the gem store.

The thing that requires actual time and playing content and what really is restricting things to being account bound (elegy mosaics, map completion, crystalline ingots, etc.) which, personally, is a feature I think should be more heavily leaned on to create legendaries to further stop it from being purchased out (I would rather it cost the equivalent in extra fulgurite/elegy to replace the mystic clover/coin count just to further differentiate those who have them vs those who credit card their way to ‘victory’, but that’s just me) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those folks help financially support Anet which in turn allows me to keep playing my favorite game. 🙂 However I personally would love to see either an alternative to mystic clovers, or some option to acquire clovers that is not so hard limited on time. Either clovers or whatever other option ought to be obtainable at a rate that is solely limited by content completion and not raw days/weeks the way that clovers are. But that is a digression from the OP's point. I was simply responding to the most recent complaint that the game needs more "Gold Sink" and highlighting the fact that such a blanket declaration overlooks a large spectrum of options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hold on ... where are the evidence for these claims? If the game needs more gold sink (and that's still to be confirmed), why have you concluded that should make Gen2 Leg Weapons purchasable? Where is the gold sink even if this happens considering that you would simply be purchasing off the TP from another player? Do you think that the 15% tax on selling Gen 2 leg weapons is really a solution to whatever 'needing gold sinks' you claim the game requires? Seems like you don't have alot of answers for the relevant questions people are asking you. Edited October 23, 2021 by Obtena.7952 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's with the idea some people seem to have, that there always has to be "some alternative" for the end goal they want? If your idea doesn't make much sense in the first place or is simply undesirable then nobody needs to meet you halfway. Want the rewards? Play the game. Want to suppor the game? Use gemstore for skins. It's just that simple. So the better suggestion or alternative is the current state of acquiring legendary gear.
