    Default "The Hero of Legend" future Achievement

    Quote Originally Posted by Samhayne View Post

    In the coming Realm of Shadows expansion for Arcane Legends existing Mythic Armor and Mythic Helmets will have a rather involved questline to upgrade them...there are Achievements involved in this quest, with the final one for acquiring the upgraded Mythic Helm and Armor granting a title of "The Hero of Legend"

    In order to start this questline, you will need to have the current level 26 Mythic Helm...and the level 31 Mythic Armor
    So from the update announcement today, the ability to upgrade Mythic Helms and Armors to their L.36 Counterparts has been officially confirmed again.
    The surprising part of the announcement seems to be the fact that there will be a "questline" involved to upgrade them and also achievements and a rather catchy title to go along with it.

    As this game seems to be very achievement oriented these days, how will this effect the Mythics market?
    Will player who currently have little to no interest in owning these 2 pieces of gear, be purchasing them for the AP points? and will prices increase b/c of this?

    This also raises many other questions.
    Because our Mythic Helms and Armors will be required to start the quest will there be a shortage of Mythic Helms and Armors?
    Will the current Mythics be discontinued or will crates and golden elite chests still drop L.26 Helms / L.31 Armors to combat the shortage?
    If they are going to be discontinued how will STS implement this achivement for future players who don't have an armor or helm to upgrade?

    ya. u need both helm nd armour to complete quest.
    after finishing questline ur set will b upgraded.
    bt it will be UNTRADEABLE. idk if u can stash it or not.

    ya ofc it will still drop from eilte pirate chest (helm) ; elite warchest (armour) nd locked crates.

    i smell that price will rise after expansion.
    why? coz after upgrading it will b untradeable nd so mythic set will b in scarcity i.e. low in supply. bt we kno mythic set has high demand.
    so low supply nd high demand= increase in price..

    In my opinion the fact that mythic armor and help are upgradable is sweet BUT i think they should be tradeable even if upgraded

    telling people about devs plan?

    as soon as people knows that it wont be tradeable after "upgrading" then the current mythic's price will go up.

    $$$$$ for those who has loots of mythics.

    Yea the price will increase so STS will get plats spenders.. but when people cant get APs... few weeks/months after the updates.. STS will come out with mythic armors/helm weekend where all can get it easily frm locked crates.. price of armors/helms will dropped significantly but STS will get plenty of plats spender.. that will definately happens based on previous weapons experience..

    Not sure I like this or not. I like to get achievements but how will I be able to accomplish this and fill in my log without mythic armor set. I have 3 toons to play with also. Wonder if this is just a quest line only. Hope they don't make an achievement out of it. I would like to earn all the achievements eventually on one of my toons.

    Yes, they do. And no, you can be any level and get the helms.

    Offtopic: I wonder what the minimum level of drops from the pirate chests are. Is it 30? Or if I open with a Lvl26 toon can I get level 26?

    Answer is these items will never be discontinued. They will always drop from elite gold pirate chests and elite gold warchests. As for locked crates, I suspect at some point which mythic & arcane items drop to you may become level based. Obviously as some point (maybe at level 41 or 46 expansion) there will be new mythic helms, armors, rings, amulets & weapons. So for locked crates, maybe it will depend on which level you are as to which set of items you get. That's how I would do it if I were the developers.

    As for the upgraded helms & armors being untradeable, when did they say that? I have a hard time believing that will be the case.

    Also, another related question which has not been answered is if one toon can do the quest multiple times to upgrade multiple sets of armors & helms? If so, then obviously they will be able to be traded. It does appear however that you will need a warrior to upgrade warrior armor & helm as it sounds like you will heave to be wearing them. But I guess we will see in time.

    I never saw it. And I've been following this stuff very closely. It is entirely possible I missed it though. A link would be nice.

    correct, the fact that it can only be completed once per character is the reason they are planned to be non-tradeable. It's going to be very shiny and it needs to feel like something special to get it. Allowing players to trade it trivializes the title reward, and the value of the gear once upgraded. We also don't want high level players exploiting the system by "manufacturing" these upgraded sets for the market. Limiting it in this way allows us more head room to make them beefy and worthwhile.
