Legendary Gear Achievement

So superior and epic quality gear has their achievements (with a schmancy dye color), and there's the Truly Legendary achievement (Gold enchant, Gold item- both self-crafted), but no full legendary gear achievement.

Can we implement that with it's own color? This, in my own limited wisdom/opinion, will encourage greater economy for gold jewels that come from the gold vendor and vet trials.

Thanks for considering!

    No thank you.

    I'd be interested to hear any reasoning you might have. Maybe my original post wasn't clear- I'm just walking about another dye color achievement for wearing all Gold gear (jewels included), as they already do for blue/purple.

    Why not, seems like that achievement should be the proper gold dye.

    I've always wondered why this is, myself. Achievements for putting on all blue and purple but no chieve for gold? Seems silly.

    No thanks for me too.

    I'd rather not fork out a ton of gold at the Cyro vendor, or have to go through the hassle of min-maxing a character and jumping through hoops for a vet trial, for another achievement (which would just be another one I'd never get; I have enough of those already).

    Its an achievement, its supposed to be something you work for, and you aren't losing any advantage by not getting an achievement.

    Meh, it's nice that there is no added pressure to "have to have it". But if - then I'd like an all white and all green achievement as well.

    Getting gold jewelry isn't really min-maxing. That's just getting the best gear for your class. The only way this would effect anyone's playing would be that, whomever complete's the achievement will have a different color with which they can dye their armor/costumes. Doesn't change gameplay at all (unless, of course, having an awesome gold color makes you happier to play).

    I play Khajiit (personal choice, I know). Some are mages and therefore would not be accepted in a vet trial, because Khajiit do not have any magey bonuses. Some are stamina based, and last I checked vet trial teams are not overly enthusiastic of stamina whatever classes. It is moot anyway, because I don't have the reflexes for vet trials, or the time to sink in training them.

    I'm kinda annoyed that many pretty dyes are locked behind vet trials, but I can live with it. I won't give my support in locking yet more dyes behind them though.

    For my gameplay, I'll never need gold jewels so chasing the Cyro vendor and throwing gold at it is just silly.

    Yes I want more pretty dyes - but some which are available to the 'scrub' population, not just to the elite with time or gold to burn.

    What dyes are locked behind vet trials? The dyes I think you may be talking about can be obtained by doing normal trials, such as 'Julianos White'. Also, for what it's worth, I do trials on stam toons on about half my runs. If you're not running with one of the top guilds then they shouldn't care. The guild I run with doesn't even require a DPS test to run with us and since we all have our jewelry new players get their IA and VO jewelry sets in a run or two.

    Umm ok...yeah really no reason not to do this. It would essentially just be another dye color.

    In my opinion by not having gold jewels available for every set it would require people to farm for/buy gear they will never use. Also by having what gold jewels there are only sold by the golden vendor it could take someone months and months to get their set for sale.

    Not a feasible achievement in the current state of set drops.

    I've yet to see a khajiit magicka character turned away from a raid due to their race choice.

    I don't have authority to invite but the link above is how I found them. GM has been away from the game for a bit so not 100% sure he's still checking it. He should be back soon though. Otherwise you can contact me in game and I can see if I can get someone to invite you, my PSN is in my sig.

    I sort of agree, .... but there really should be a title like "Master Crafter" for getting to level 50 with all traits unlocked in all 6 of the crafting skills.
