Guild Wars 2

With all these world/living world events I’m filling my bags with dragonite ore and bloodstone dust. Now what is left is farming 25 dungeons to get my vision crystal...I’ve been trying to find a quicker and more reliable way to get empyreal fragments.

After I made a chest run video a few weeks ago, I’ve been working on a more efficient run. I quickly found out that my old run had flaws, and that there are a lot of quickly accessable chests lying around waiting to be looted:)

When you’ve learned this route you can farm fragments as fast as doing dungeons in 6,5 minutes. As a bonus comes a crapload of loot for salvage, and a few rares. The most convenient part is that you can do this solo, and repeat with your toons for x times 160 fragments a day.

I’ve made an educational video that should be easy to follow. Click here to watch:)

Nice vid, but would love to see a good reference map with all locations marked to use as while farming.
Here’s one but it is rather poor resolution

Yeah, that’s a good idea, especially if you have two monitors. From my own experience, the list of waypoints is more than enough though. After you find a chest once, you’ll remember it the next time. Memory seems to work well with rewards I guess

LOL—I’m old—memory skills seem to be on the way out.

how are your bags not bursting over with bloodstone dust and empyreal fragments? dragonite ore was always my limiting factor

Hehe, I guess it depends on play style. I always had too much dragonite ore. I have an event tracker that says PLING whenever a chest event I haven’t done is up. I’m a student, so I have GW2 up while studying – just doing the chest events when they are up.
