Guild Wars 2

So I’ve had 4 golden ones for a few days now, trying to figure out how to combine them in the forge to create a random golden weapon skin. Every recipe I’ve tried, however, seems to need 10. I know this is an existing recipe for a specific skin if you combine it with ectos, stabilizing matrices and the weapon skin you want to turn golden.

Is the recipe for the 4 relics = random skin bugged? Or am I missing something?

The entire Fractals update seems to be bugged to pieces (none of their fixes actually were fixed, some rings not showing up, weapon achievement broken, +10 AR item not functional) so I wouldn’t be surprised if this was too.

How do you get the golden relics in the first place?

You get them from salvaging golden skins and completing levels 75-100. level 100 also gives a golden skin and I got one golden skin from completing the regular skin collection, which makes 4 golden relics in total.

Ah, I see. Makes sense as I didn’t pull a golden skin yet, didn’t bother buying my last few skins and I only managed to pug my way up to 70 yet.

I assume they can’t randomly drop out of chests from 75-100 fractals.

They do randomly drop from the adept, veteran and champion chests of the mists you get for completing a series of fractals. My guild has currently started a new spreadsheet for droprate research but it’s too early to say anything about droprates yet.

Of course.
Is the spreadsheet already openly available (for others to look at it) or is it still “secret”, so to say?

We’ll make it public in about 1-2 weeks probably, when we’ve built up a reasonable sample size

Alright, thanks for the info.

Here is the recipe for 4 Golden Relics.
