Huh, interesting stuff.
Note: The crafting link doesn't go anywhere, is it for the same page? I'm asking that because it doesn't explain much about -basic- crafting there. But, I guess it's a way to just upgrade your gear to pre-Legendary?
EDIT: Found the crafting page. Wow, those are some radical (but good) changes right there. Have high hopes for that!

Honest development-question though, is it wise to release all this (Legendary stuff I mean) now, before polishing the outdated Crusaders first?
I mean, what about someone like Sasha, who even has a self DPSgear and 4 selfDPS skills, yet is not even tagged as a DPSer (since she is not viable as one anyway)? It seems like fixing those flaws first seems wiser, imho.

That said, Legendary Crafting still feels like a fun addition.

Oops, the crafting link works now. There was a separate blog. It is all on the website though.

Yes, we wanted to release crafting, since the Legendary effects may change which Crusaders are "useless".

Then we will do a balance pass around how that changes things for Crusaders.

Azamagon, check the crafting update once it is live. From my point of view the 'polishing' might be covered there.

Which crusader deserves which tag is something else entirely and doesn't concern Sasha probably. However, CNE has said they are happy with the tags and did consider a rebalancing of crusaders which I would think legendary crafting covers.

Ah, thanks. Found the page just before it was repaired though, but thanks regardless :)

Well, that sounds good. I'm also eager for a good balance pass, and would be more than willing to help out with ideas for that! Have a whole bunch of ideas written down for that.

@Andreas. Yeah, I'm just a bit bitter and pessimistic, because I often see developers ignoring old content in the favour of new stuff (like they do in the game Warframe, for example). But seeing the crafting page gives me hope. And in CotLI they have repeatedly shown that they are willing to stir things up, old as new (like Crafting does, for example).

I'm feeling more optimistic about all this now :)

Getting Legendary Gear... "The second thing you'll need is a Legendary Catalyst. Legendary Catalysts are new random drops from Jeweled Chests."

Are these already dropping now or should we hold onto all our Jeweled Chests until this launches?

Not dropping yet, hold on to your chests for now if you want crafting materials.

I've been holding on to chest (both varieties) since this was in the air, several months ago :D
