Guild Wars 2

I must have missed something because nobody else ask this, but I have 3 of the level 1 key parts, but it won’t open the large chest on the top of the tower.
So apparently I need 3 of each key parts from each level to open that big chest? or does each level have its own large treasure chest to open somewhere?

you need to collect a key of each color (blue, green and pink). Each level has a different color of keys that drop. Level 1 is blue, 2nd level is green and 3rd is pink. You however can buy a key per day (account wide not per character) at the npc in Kessex hill. You also get 1 key per chest per day from the boss and/or solo instance. Combine them and open the box at the top. That’s the only chest in this tower.

ah ok thank you!

Double click them to combine 3 differently colored key-pieces into one tri-color key – and that one will work.

Slight correction here:

The drops are random. Keys of a specific color are said to have a slightly higher chance of dropping in chambers of the according level.

That’s 1 key per color per day. (= 3 keys per day)

You also get 1 key per chest per day from the boss and/or solo instance.

The key from the boss instance is a one-time reward, not daily.

Ok one more thing I am at the NPC by Thunder Ridge I believe, is that the one that suppose to sell keys? She only takes my spores but doesn’t sell keys, must be wrong NPC?
I haven’t bought a key yet.

I think her name is Dee and she sells all sorts of items for a combination of spores and money.

I don’t know if there is any prerequisites – maybe she’ll only sell you key parts after you have beaten the story instance at least once? It’s possible.

You have to give her 50 spore samples before she turns into a merchant.

But you can also buy toxic boxes in sPvP for 750 glory points. They have a high chance to drop the keys, and each chest gives you a few spores.
