Talk:The Predator

Modified notes on weapon glow while active or inactive. As a warrior main with a brand-spanking-new Predator rifle of my own, I confirm that the fiery aura only surrounds my character when the rifle is in my hands (active). Which is too bad. I wish it were there when inactive as well. Sciros (talk) 17:21, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

The article mentions how the default projectiles are replaced for warrior and engineer skills, but no mention of Deadeye projectiles. I am curios if someone can verify and document how the Deadeye skills are changed when wielding The Predator. --TheIronBanker (talk) 20:25, 27 October 2017 (UTC)

Obsidian Shards can be bought with Volatile Magic too, but the ingredient list only shows Unbound Magic —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.133.136.198 (talk) at 01:46, 22 December 2021‎ (UTC).

It would be nice to get it consistent but also to not bloat it up too much. Pretty much all other legendary weapon tables list only:

525,000  or 3,750 Fractal Relics or 250 Laurels¹ or 12,500 Bandit Crests ⁵

or

525,000  or 3,750 Fractal Relics or 250 Laurels¹ or 12,500 Bandit Crests ⁵ or 250 Bauble Bubble

where the temporary Bauble Bubble is questionable for me, I would simply remove it.

Also there is an additional note on e.g. Sunrise for Fractal Relics:

⁶ There is an additional 24  0  charge for each Shard bought from BUY-4373

So, summing up, I would suggest to add the following consistently to all legendary weapons:

For 250 Obsidian Shards: 525,000  or 3,750 Fractal Relics⁶ or 250 Laurels¹ or 12,500 Bandit Crests⁵ or 25,000 Unbound Magic⁵ or 25,000 Volatile Magic⁵

For ~231 Obsidian Shards: (485,100  or 3,465Fractal Relics⁶ or 231 Laurels or 11,550 Bandit Crests⁵ or 23,100 Unbound Magic⁵ or 23,100 Volatile Magic⁵)

with the updated notes:

¹ Obsidian Shards are bought in multiples of three, costing three Laurels each. You would end up purchasing a total of 252 shards.

² This item varies with each legendary.

³ These two Gifts change with each Legendary and require you to have characters that have mastered the respective crafting disciplines. The finished Gifts are Account Bound, which allows you to craft them on different characters.

⁴ Chance to get a precursor varies with rarity and level. [1]

⁵ There is an additional 96  charge for each Shard bought with Bandit Crests from e.g. Priory Historian, with Unbound Magic from e.g. Quartermaster Hitchens or with Volatile Magic from e.g. Trader Hyacinth.

⁶ There is an additional 24  0  charge for each Shard bought from BUY-4373.

Dont forget WvW, Tarir, Verdant, TD, gathering in guild hall and many more. Why do you even have a list of the ways to buy it anyway ? Dont see a list how to get Mystic Coincs there or other materials. Just delete it all. People can make that one more click to see where they get Obsidian Shards. At least it would look better =/ --DiegoDeLaHouska (talk) 12:19, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

Indeed, kinda hard to argue what currencies are worth listing (probably except WvW, 20 Memories of Battle are worth ~4 gold together with a time-gated currency), historically (pre-HoT) with like only three acquisition sources (karma, fractal, laurels) it made sense, but now with so many different sources you might be right. -Tolkyria (talk) 13:22, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

Is this only me, or should it be listed as a bug? Gartner (talk) 05:53, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
