Guild Wars 2

Just wondering what the actual drop rate is for these things. I’ve had two in the last two weeks (Warhorn and Torch) but I’d really like the sword. Need to know if I’ve just been extremely lucky or if, actually, it’s TOO hard to get.

Thanks.

I used to run fractals (49-50) every day for about 1.5 years. I still didn’t get dagger. In meantime i got 9 precursors and 3 legendaries. Just to give you an idea how ridicilous drop rate for specific skin is.

Missing dagger and focus. Didn’t had any skins drop for about 2 months at least. The tonic drop rate is even more ridiculous.

Fixed for ya : )

Playing since start. Just got the dagger this month. A lot of Spare Skins.
Good Luck and may your Faith never weaver o/

Here’s the recorded drops rates that LOD has had.

We’ll be resetting the spreadsheet again come HoT launch.

HoT allows you to buy fractal skins with pristine relics no? So should be pretty easy now.

After about 350~370 runs i am missing 5 skins..Got same skin 2-4 times. I think skins started to drop about after150-200 runs.

2 years. All skins.

Not a single precursor drop, ever. 1 legendary (ok, only because the others I don’t like).

Have every skin, it was very easy to farm them before fractured patch, now its harder. My record was like 6 skins in 1 week xd

3000+ individual fractals run.
2 x swords
I x scepter
1 x torch
1 x raiders chest
1x defenders chest
4 xascended weapon chests

These 3000+ runs are from level 1-50 inclusive. The lower levels obviously granting far less chance of getting anything of high end worth. I spend a the most time in 30-40. Once in at 50 good things dropped once a week when i took the time to reset Diminishing returns.

I have also had an uncountable amount of golds/oranges drop.

I got the warhorn skin a few weeks ago on my first level 20 fractal. Only completed the fractal frequenter achievement this week.

Since march 16th of this year i tried to do 50,40,30 and 20 daily to fill up my set before Hot comes out. I was not able to do it every day, only about 90% of the time, so >180 days or > 720 runs. I started with 10 skins unlocked from runs before that date, now I’m at 16 and got 39 extra skins on the bank (kept doubles, used anyone that was new), so I got 45 skins, lots of armor/weapon boxes and of course a metric ton of rings (out of which i kept about 300 after they anounced ascended salvaging). Still missing scepter, longbow and trident skins …

This is some cool data!

Doesn’t really matter anymore. Once you complete a lvl 50 you can go to the vendor in the mists and purchase whatever skin you want.
