  1. My OCD has gotten the better of me again. I've been marathoning Guild Wars 2 so I can finish making the legendary raven staff Nevermore. The process of making this has so many parts and is so time consuming. I'm definitely finishing this now. Its definitely the most difficult and time consuming thing I've done in this game but its making me feel a real connection to the weapon. When I see other ppl that have it I'll know they went on that same journey. Its a pretty cool feeling. Its a bit of a shame the newer legendary weapons won't be made in the same way, but if they were I know I wouldn't put this much time into another one. The tier 4 collection is crazy.. I got a Raven egg, imbued it with power from numerous places, made an incubation chamber, hatched it and now I'm feeding it and teaching it to fly by doing specific events with alot of gliding. This is a cool experience. :D Once I'm done raising it, it'll actually become part of my living weapon. :D

      This last collection is far beastlier than all the other precursor collections I've done in the game. Half of the collection can't be done or wont register unless you hatch the egg first. All other collections in the game let you delete the stuff once you first acquired it so it doesn't take up space in your inventory, but I'm hesitant to delete anything from this collection because many parts are required to be in your inventory to register the next collection step or are consumed by the next collection step process. No wonder anet gave up on this style of collections. Its honestly way to convoluted imo just because of inventory management. Instead of just being 60 event/locations for tier 4 collections that could fail in any patch, its more like 200+ because of the items required to be in the inventory during those specific events/locations to trigger the next step. I thought it'd be a logistical nightmare just being 90 things per collection, but what they envisioned for tier 4 collections for legendary weapons is far too complex to be manageable. While it is a fun experience, I'm now getting burned out on it because of waiting for events to spawn so I can complete them and get the next token item I need. One event with owls apparently needed an event to fail but from what I've read it was fixed so I'll just have to repeat this other owl event twice to get both parts, but after checking that location off an on for over an hour yesterday that event never spawned once. -_-; I'll check it again later. I've done the event before so I know it'll spawn, I must have been having bad timing.

      Yeah, screw all that. I wish they'd scrap it for the first 3 HoT legendaries and just make them like the current ones. When the new Expac comes out they should just make the HoT pres and weapons sellable on the TP. I've become spoiled just buying the things instead of constantly looking at guides to see what to craft and combine, how many mats I need etc. I'd rather go through Dark Cloud 2's bad weapon evolution system than do all that. XD

      If Nevermore was craftable like Eureka and Shooshadoo, I'd have been done with it last week easily. Now that I've gotten all the masteries, plenty of map currencies, etc. I bet making a second or third HoT legendary (newer ones without the collections) would be much easier than the core ones at this point simply because getting HoT map completions is faster than the full world completions for the core game. Crafting the core game precursors are a pain too because of the geodes, bandit crests, obby shards, etc. from the tier 2 collections. Screw doing any of that again. I'd rather just buy some tokens from the new maps and craft the precursors like how it is with Eureka. Thats much faster and eliminates a huge grind. Of course the core precursors can be bought off the tp to eliminate alot of the grind, but some are just too expensive compared to the actual crafting cost. Like Dusk is 300 more gold for a sell order than it costs to craft. But the amount of time wasted on the collections is huge, considering we have to wait for events to spawn. Waiting for events to spawn that aren't on a timer really makes me want to put the game down for a bit and play a single player offline game just so I don't have to sit around doing nothing.
