Just saw a guy advertising a Legendary Sword in LA.
It was gold req 12 and inscriptable he said he got it as a HoH chest drop.

Are these new or some scam somehow?

He did show it too me but I forgot to take a screenie

HoH can't drop inscipable stuff. It is core, just like FoW and UW and they dont drop inscribable stuff. Unless I'm totally wrong and HoH is different.

guess this is the sword that guy was talking about, unless there are more new skins ofcourse.
this has the same skin as mallyx's edge.
aparently some nightfall items can drop with inscriptions from ha chest. cryst and old skins are reported to keep dropping "old-school style"

Looks like the Runic Blade uses the same skin as Mallyx's Edge. Sadly

. It would have been nice with completely new skins.
But does this mean that there's gonna be an axe with the same skin as Mallyx's Reaver?!

Even though I was hoping for an awesome new skin, I guess this isn't too bad either

team mate had a dwarven axe today in ha and it was not inscriptable (14% stance). therefore i presume that only newly introduced skins drop with iscriptions, old stuff should be safe

edit: perhaps its a glitch?

Or mabey it would mean a slight price drop and just everyone that has a crystalline or finds one will be perfect and youd see alot more WTS 15^50 Crystalline Swords (purp for the fact of the matter)

Is this them half-assing a retroactive upgrade for the old weapons? -_-

Does this mean new insigniable ARMORS will come out too?

Hmmm, Gaile was in Kamadan last night (I bowed to her and she bowed back. How leet is that xD!), and she asked us if we had noticed 'better' drops from HA. We of course had no idea she meant new skins/new weapon names/inscribable crystallines. Wow.

Wonder if GPB's will drop inscribable from HoH chests under a different name. That's the only sword I really want inscribable.

So is this Legendary Sword sharing a skin with Gothic Sword or Mallyx's Edge? The two are clearly not the same...

Legendary Sword = Gothic Sword

Runic Blade = Mallyx's Edge

I want to know which ArenaNet employee thought it was a good idea to make a "Legendery Sword" a generic weapon.

lol, I saw someone spamming "WTB Legendary Sword!" in Kamadan, I thought he was a noob wanting a green or gold weapon or something...

Why the hell does a sword with the name "legendary" have the gothic sword skin? I mean, cmon, we have such great skins and art, make something that looks good.

I'm a pretty avid PvPer and PvEer and I saw several things in HA I haven't seen before. I won halls a dozen or so times yesterday and this is what I saw (for me and teammates):

two legendary swords
a holy vials
a shield I forget the name of but it looked like geoffers bulwark
an axe stygian reaver (sp?) <-- new skin I believe
an earth scroll
6 or so sigils
6 or so etheral shits (each one I got had both a rune and a armor inscription, this may not be 100% tho)
at least 18 flames of Balthazar

This is roughly as I wasn't keeping track. Each item I personally got had all modifiers maxed out and each item had dual mods. Each was also inscribable (including the earth scroll, so I believe the theory about old items not being inscribable is not right). Req was variable -- I saw from r9 to r12.
