Guild Wars 2

The Queen’s jubilee has been over for many months now and as such, sprockets are useless unless you can get hold of those recipes.

Jubilees tend to happen on a yearly basis, not every couple of months. The recipes still drop though, from Scarlets invasions.

With the last patch, they introduced over 70 new recipes that need watchwork sprockets with the zealot and keepers gear.

Really? Where is that information from?

I don’t see them listed in the wiki, which only has the old recipes:

Ok I found the watchwork mechanism and the zealot insignia but that is only like 2-3 recipes.

The watchwork mechanism is used in the insignia and the inscription, either one is used in any crafting of exotic or ascended zealot/keeper weapon/armor.

The exquisite watchwork jewel is used for the exotic watchwork trinkets.

Wait, the Jubilee recipes still drop from the Scarlet invasions? O.o

The recipes for the exotic stuff, yes.

According to wiki, you get 3 for 1 wave, 4 for 2 waves and 5 for 3 waves completed.

I’ve never seen a completion in months now.

But anyway, I realised afterward that my question was pointless, since those Jubilee recipes are all account bound. It’s not injecting new supply into the market.

Of course it injects new supply, there is just no market.

I have one in the bank from an invasion wasting a slot.

the same way precursors drop from risen grubs! I completed over 20 invasions when that was popular and never saw one.

if you defeated all 3 waves in those 20 invasions, you would have gotten 100 scarlets secret stash.
Do you expect a pre cursor from every 100th risen grub you kill?

*point being that: yes, they can drop, but not often enough that you should ever expect it.

Chances might not be too bad if people actually bothered to complete them. Hopefully that won’t become the case for the zealot’s stuff as well after tomorrow’s patch.

As the Marionette event will stay at least through the next update, those will still drop.
Not sure though, if they will still be obtainable once the marionette is gone.
I bought and keep buying recipes to sell for a premium in 6 months.

Prices for the Keeper’s recipes have settled enough that I bought the two I wanted. I underestimated the popularity of the Marionette, to be honest, and since it’s staying for another two weeks the Zealot’s prices will probably keep dropping for at least another week before the speculators start buying up.

It is staying for another 2 weeks but it could be completely deserted. Much like the Mad King’s Labyrinth. Neither are really doable without enough people around. Same with the invasions.

I suggested this one time when we had like 10 players per lane: put 5 players on lanes 3-5 to hold the line as much as they can (kill small mobs, let champs through), then have 20 players on lanes 1 and 2 to kill the first two wardens so everyone at least gets a chest. only 55 players required instead of 100+.
