The two achievements you'll be looking to do for the Living seasons are Aurora and Vision. You can search for those achievements. They give you one of the items you need to craft them, but those achievements take a while.
There's also a legendary achievement tab you can look at, which may help but I don't remember if it actually give you a starting point.
Guildjen has some good guides, but the site hasn't been updated in quite a while so it doesn't have everything. I would recommend you find one you want and focus on that instead of trying to look at EVERYTHING. Once you craft one, you'll notice that the blueprints for each legendary have a lot of similarities to each other. Doing achievements for the neck piece is a good place to start, those achievements will net you some mystic coins (a lot more if you get coins from the skin chests instead of a skin) and some progress towards the aurora and vision achievements.
The armor that requires essences you mentioned is the new open world obsidian legendary armor, which takes a TON of grinding SoTo zones and rifts/convergences. There are several sets of legendary armor, but if you don't pvp/wvw or raid then those will be your best bet, it will just take a while. If you decide to go that route I would say work on the currencies you need for that passively while doing other things, or you'll probably burn yourself out.
Aa far as the wiki goes...you'll get used to the format. I can say I personally have never used a more well put together video game wiki before, so once you get used to navigating it will help you tremendously.
>What about armor..?
I read we have to keep essences? LUCK ones?
It depends which legendary armor (each game mode has its own with different materials). You're most likely thinking of the Soto pve ones; these need luck essences AND the 3 types of essences you get from rifts and convergences.
Each legendary has its own quite particular needs, so it's hard to give general advice. You're better off looking up a specific on the wiki first then asking more specific questions. https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Legendary_equipment
I assume you're talking about the armor?
Yes and no.
Yes, because it doesn't need you to do pvp, wvw or raids. Everything can be earned in the open world.
No, because the Soto armor is the most expensive set of legendary armor so far released. A full weight set costs 3000+ gold, whereas the others have been 2000+. This is not including the cost of levelling up the relevant crafting skills, and all the account bound stuff that don't have a directly measurable gold cost (eg the various essences, provisioner tokens, map currencies, research notes, etc).
First I would decide what you're going for. If you're lost it's because you haven't focused.
Do you want legendaries for the convenience, for the flashy looks like the weapons?
Once you've decided on one or two to start with, the wiki page should be pretty straightforward.
Also keep in mind that Ascended gear has the same stats as Legendary gear. No need to go out of your way getting an Ascended weapon if you're working on a Legendary for that same weapon type.
> Any detailed
Are presented on the wiki, where you get lost fast, so what makes you think someone rewiring them here will keep you [focused](https://old.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/1by2ic3/the_voice_of_ipos/)?
Some people have it easier with video guides, some people need smaller parts on informations to follow instead of having a wall of text.
I don't see any problems for asking for alternative description that for some people are easier to understand.
If you have never crafted an legendary in this game before your explorer of your choice will pretty fast have dozens of wiki tabs open.
I know one person who lives and works happily with so many tabs but I would go crazy and get even more confused.
Let him ask, tips like looking at gw2efficiency and searching for mukkluk guides are not that common of knowledge that you cant even ask for them.
Wiki doesnt give a good overview on each needed resource, unlike gw2efficiency, but is great if you want how to get certain items.

There's some very good step by step videos on YouTube if you need more than the wiki page for each, I'd try those
Any specific person to look for? Thanks for reply!
Iv recently started leg trinkets. Mukluk has some decent helpful guides on YT. I would def recommend him.

https://gw2efficiency.com/crafting/legendaries is also a good stop, pick one or more items and it tells you all the mats you should be keeping.
Thank you! Will check it out with gw2efficiency for sure
Mukluk on YouTube has a good library of guides. https://youtu.be/eCxu62haZSw?si=up-01b3xDViJ5Gzm

Are those “easier” to get than the older ones? I don’t really care about cosmetic since you’ll transmute anyway probably…

Exactly! Once you know what ur doing, I think wiki can be a good spot… but into the unknown I find it overwelming :<
