The CASUAL guide to your FIRST LEGENDARY Weapon #guildwars2

Guild Wars 2 Secrets of the Obscure introduced a complete overhaul of the Daily Login Rewards. Instead of being rewarded for simply logging in, you get to do a few daily, weekly, or even special tasks for Astral Acclaim.

This new currency can be spent on items in The Wizard's Vault, among which we have a Legendary Starter Kit that can be purchased for 1000 Astral Acclaim.

This kit will already provide you with the Precursor Weapon, a Gift of the Quip, Meteorlogicus, The Bifrost, or Bolt, as well as either a Gift of Might or a Gift of Magic.

Receiving these for free will significantly reduce the cost of any of the 4 Generation 1 Legendary Weapons that you can currently craft. But if this is your first time crafting, the remaining materials might still seem out of reach.

I want to combat this with this guide. I'll go over which components we still need to gather ourselves, how to obtain them, and we'll try to spend as little gold as possible along the way.

Some of the ingredients will take care of themselves if you know where to start.

great guide, this starter kit is really great, i sold my legendary cause i had most of the accountbound stuff stacked already. 2 things that might help: you can buy obsidian shards for unbound magic, in case you are low on karma and unbound magic is easy to farm with farming winterberries on a few characters per day, good if you are low on karma. When "gambling" for mystic clovers in the mystic forge, always do the recipe for 1 and not the one for 10. While the odds are the same, you are much more likely to get a clover 33% of the time instead of getting super unlucky 3 rolls in a row for example doing 10 at once, doing them 1 by 1 gives you more rolls to even out lucky and unlucky streaks.

Clear, to the point and explained very well. You've earned a sub good sir. GW2 has great content creators but so many of them can't condense their videos and you have to sift through 45mins to find what you need so videos like this are very much appreciated.

[buckdinero]

This is a great description of a lengthy and detailed process. You've greatly helped simplify this. Thanks for this video.

[JustShineLikeSky]

This was an awesome guide :D I wish there were more guides like this out there. Would also love to see how the raid and wvw legendaries are crafted

[PRikka]

Great breakdown! I love the new tracking system for leggy crafting! 😁

[aheric]

Your video is the definition of Quality. Subbed!

[gustafstromberg]

I think my mind just exploded. This was a lot for a relatively new player :) Will chunk if off piece by piece. Great guide!

A clarification on clover forging: you'll need on average 250 forges, not 231, that data was an estimate at the time that has since been refined. But the loot you get from the non-clover results can include all of the components needed to forge more, so you may need more like 242 of each component to start with and then get around 8 of each to cover the rest. And as you said the other non-clover results from gambling for clovers are really good, you'll get lots of leftover T6 mats that sell for quite a lot.

People completely sleep on winterberry farm for Obsidian shards. If you somehow find yourself lacking karma, farming winterberrys with every alt gets you the obsidian shards in no time.

[rednaxela]

FYI just like the special tab missions. the legendary starterkit is only available if you actually own soto.

[peterschim]

Hello, can you maybe make a video on how to set up blish HUD, I can't speak English very well, only with a translator

[Niyack]

Random Question on the Mystic Clovers. Lyhr has no limit on how much will sell you, unlike Miyani/Mystic Forge Attendant which is a limit of 10 a week. Is this cheaper then using the Mystic Forge?

[yehyaelhennawy]

thanks, i was looking for this video since SOS launched, but i see some parts of video broken " screen not visible" !! or its just me ?

[skwright]

The mod is not listed on Blish HUD, I just checked FYI

Took me a week to do gift of exploration (only 2 hours max a day) when i got bored i'd destroy some fools in pvp and it would make me happy again 😂

[leocruz_rj]

Hi, a question about gift of exploration...
If i need 4 legendary weapons, I need to do map completion 4 times? Do I need 4 different characters? How does that work?
Thanks!

[lukapavlesic]

I was unable to find this starter kit - have they removed it from game?

[gangrel]

Keep or sell ? I wanted to acquire the trinkets first

[BigChilla]

Wait I'm confused why is it choice between only those 4 weapons I don't want any of em wanted a longbow

[bimerbomer]

bro first legendary weapon guy has no skyscale ....
