Lucky Legacies

Apelred was unlucky not to get a second age weapon from his Hunters Gift Boxes but his luck turned when he went searching on the Auction House.

He found a level 60 crossbow for 4 gold that had Induction Bow Crit, Range Skill Evade and Induction Bow Threat Down Legacies, all ones he likes.

He bought it and started applying all the saved xp runes which was just enough to get it up to Level 30. He named it Ascarsul meaning violent wind (hopefully, elvish is not his strong suit), and with reforging added Quick Shot Threat Down and Focus Bow Crit both tier 6 and upgraded Induction Bow Threat Down to Tier 5 - a very nice result.

Here is the xbow before he applies any Legendary Points, most will be going on DPS.

Kindred with the Galadhrim

Apelred completes the Flet Runner challenges in Caras Galadhon that elevates his reputation with the Galadhrim to Kindred and opens up the gamble of a Hunters Gift Box giving a Second Age Weapon - wish him luck!
UPDATE - your best wishes fell on deaf ears as Apelred only got a Rune and a Box of Relics for all that hard work - no Second Age weapon :( - I guess he will just have to save his pennies and buy one.
