I doubt it as them being non-tradeable was very intentional.

[Astralporing.1957]

Tradable, i don't think so. As @Ayrilana.1396 said, that was fully intentional, as a result of being able of buying gen1 weapons on tp causing quite a mixed reactions. You might have better results asking for a separate SPvP-based path for those weapons (similar to how gen 2.5 weapons eventually got their separate PoF acquisition methods in addition to the original HoT-based one)

What is wrong with buying legies on tp? Cuz people dont have to grind boring stuff (aka map comp)?

As such, other avenues for obtaining those items, that still do require dedication to the game (even if through playing different parts of it) may be more widely acceptable to the community.

I would think that this would run counter to the design concept of legendaries.

[DebraKadabra.5278]

Yeeeeahhhh, no. Gen 2 legendaries were created to remove the "whip out the credit card" stigma that comes with owning Gen 1 legendaries. (She says as she's working on Aurora and The Shining Blade).

[Seera.5916]

I vote no.

I wish they had never made the gen 1 legendary weapons trade-able.

[Omega.6801]

Tradeable Gen1 legendaries were a mistake, so I don't think we should reproduce the effect with Gen2 legys.

Why are you creating duplicate topics OP?

Wasn't there a short time when "Nevermore" was on the TP?

I makes no difference to me who has or doesn't have a Legendary and how they came about it. These days, there are so many out there I don't pay any attention to them anymore. Yes, that means they have lost their high-and-mighty status for me.

If they had stats above Ascended, now then I'd have a problem with the "pay to win" scenario.

I have both purchased (thank you to the person who crafted it for me) and crafted Legendary weapons on my own. I don't feel the ones I worked for have more intrinsic value than the ones I bought off the TP.

For those people who want to craft multiple copies of the same one, I do wish the precursor was able to be purchased (from Grandmaster Craftsman Hobbs) after the Legendary was completed. There are some precursors that can only be completed once per account due to achievements/goals/etc.
