The first wing of the first ever raid in Guild Wars 2 has been opened. This is 10-person content designed to be the hardest in the game, and offers, as an ultimate reward, pieces for assembling legendary armour. This is not more powerful armour: it is exactly as powerful as existing top-end ascended armour, but allows you to swap stats - presumably stat templates - while out of combat.
"Endless tiers of gear grind to stay raid relevant have no place in Guild Wars 2," reads an apt line from a raid explainer on the Guild Wars 2 website.
