Relic Theory crafting is really Fun

It's on my list, someday. I JUST got done building the Meteorlogicus...the hard way. No Wizard Vault booster there, I did it all. And I am DRAINED. My gold is gone, my mats are gone, I am tapped. That's ONE scepter. I don't even want to look at a full suit of armor.....or since I'm a mesmer, a legendary suit of clothes.

The first one is always the most difficult. Gl getting the other purple pieces eventually. 😉

Thing is, I've been playing since Beta. And when the Legendaries came out I looked at them, looked at my materials and said "That's impossible unless you work GW2 like a second job". And that was it, I never looked at them again until about a year ago when I figured after Leggies being out for the better part of a decade themselves and the third generation of leggies released, I gave them another look, and after years and years and years of playing I realized that I had a lot of materials. So i went for it. I actually started Sunrise first, but I kinda gave up after I got dawn and saw the requirements for Sunrise and then I lost interest. Then I saw Meterologicus and went whole hog into it. Did the collections, did the crafting, got the gifts, got the scepter.

But now I'm back to tapped out again. I got nothing. My mat bank is empty, at least on the T6 level. So looking at Leggie armor now, which is like my weapon except I have to do it six times?? How do the rest of you manage it? How is it you're able to get your paws on a seemingly limitless supply of T6 mats that I struggle to find doing event chains and metas? Where are you getting ectoplasm, coins, and clovers? I'm genuinely curious at this point what part of the game am I missing.

You might want to look at it again, because that's not true. The cost of one armor part is much lower than the cost of a weapon.

tp is an option to use instead of farming specific materials.
