I really agree, and I can totally see how hard it would be to find new inspiration for weapons in video games. I think it's especially difficult for artists because weapons aren't just a cool skin anymore, but they are basically a whole audio visual experience. I want to say how exceptional the new legendary great sword is in how it addresses this, but it's quickly becoming the norm, give it 10 years and that'll be the starter weapon for x new mmo. Saying that, your work is really exceptional. I just hope to God that it's not released as a gemstore thing. That'd really kill the excitement for a new weapon release.

glowing bow string with diamond grip

the part i like the most, sadly, it always disappear while dismounting, or for some reason is almost always gone while doing wvw.

but kudos, this is one of my favourite legendary weapons in game :D

First of all you've made amazing job with those weapons.

Secondly, Mystic longbow/(shortbow)? and Pharus are both looking great, I am aware of Pharus's special particle effects, but we are looking at a still image here, which if you don't go to imgur is very small, that makes it even harder to diferenciate between those two, and casual player won't notice the diference whether on picture or other player's back while stowed.

I've speand around 5k hours in game and if someone haven't told me this wasn't Pharus I wouldn't be abile to figure it out myself (I have never been much into bows tho...), probably because of that glow, it was the most unique part of Pharus in my opinion (might be wrong).

Now, that's no longer the case, it's both sad to see Legendary loose part of it's appeal, but on the other hand more people will be abile to have awesome weapons.

Nice Style tho... :)

WTF!?!? Why is Pharus one of the skins?

Yep.

They made another amazing mechanic, yet it doesnt do anything. It doesnt punish you at all, and people dont even care about clearing stacks anymore because there is no way you are going to get killed since you are able to self-break it.

Dont do us like that

IF the system somehow got abused by PvE players (I still don't see the issue) we could just get a debuff on after moving to the instance that prevents us from getting rewards, easy.

2/3 of the tech is already here (mentor, volunteer) so I think it is doable.

EDIT: Well, I still think it is doable. But maybe /u/Anet-Clayton or /u/Anet_Myranda could tell more (even if it's "no") or at least pass the suggestion(s) forward?

Any reason why the chance of a unique weapon or armour skin is not an incentive to keep doing these? Once you have the achievement, there is literally no reason to do this unless you like the fight.

Truthfully, it's not. Everything in the strike mission can be obtained without and it's really not that hard to get it out of the strike. I'm 3 weapons away from having completed every single reward from this patch and it's not like I played it every day nor dedicated that much time to it as I've mostly been doing wvw or pve raids instead.

There should be a unique reward per strike :)

Just wanted to say I appreciate that you are communicating on Reddit with the community

/u/anet-clayton I know you probably aren't related to this, but I saw you are active in reddit lately and it seems like the person responsible for this achievements fix just forgot to do it (has been almost 6 months), so I'm pinging you hoping maybe you could tell them to fix it. Thank you man.
