Black Lion Trading company qs
The auction house/Black Lion Trading company is located elsewhere in Hoelbrak – you can see it marked on your map as a gold circle with black scales inside. If your trader despawned, it is because you used an item which despawns after a few mins. They are designed for the open world convenience. The one I have mentioned is a permanent part of the city.
Every city has a black lion auction house. It does exactly the same as pressing “o”, with the addition of being able to collect your purchases
Excluding legendary, the highest gear in the trading post (TP) is exotic level, although you can craft ascended which is fractionally better in stats. Sigils and runes will improve those stats or other abilities. The other ways you improve stats are through;
- traits
- buffs (your skills or from players)
- food
- infusions (small stat buffs for ascended items)
A lot of the end game of the game revolves around cosmetic rewards. For you instead once you have full exotic gear (very quick and easy to get from many sources in game), then ascended item acquisition might be your best option.

I notice you have many questions about the game. Some resources you might consider are:
The Players Helping Players sub-forum
The Wiki – accessible via the link above, or in-game by typing /Wiki (topic of choice) in chat
Good luck.
vpy.6183I am new to GW2.
I am assuming that Black Lion Trading company is comparable to AH of WoW.
Welcome.
vpy.6183Q1) My black lion trader disappeared (Norn area ..near the lake…where the kids throw snow at you)…Is he on a spawn timer ?
Black Lion Trader NPCs are of two kinds: there are the permanent ones, and the ones a player can temporarily summon through a certain consumable.
Q2) Is there any way for me to get my purchased AH gear than searching for this black lion dude ?
The things you purchase at the Gem Store are delivered via in-game mail.
The things you purchase at the Trading Post can only be given to you by a Black Lion Trader NPC.
Q3) I could see numbers in gear in Trading section. Some of the gear have very high numbers like this pistol which can be used at level 1 with values like 1306 etc. But its stat is comparable to same level blue item…Whats up with that ?
Are you sure 1306 isn’t the amount of pistols available for purchase? That is definitely not a stat.
Q4) Apart from Sigils I am assuming there is no way to improve your dmg or character..am i right ?..I have about 4000gems which i can convert to gold if needed. Which should i buy first ?…Never been a fan of skin purchasing and cosmetic goodies though
You shouldn’t really worry too much about stats before level 80.
Anyway, your stats are boosted by Armour and Weapons.
Each armor and weapon has a prefix (Berserker, Soldier, etc) that indicates which stats are boosted.
Runes can boost one or two stats, and add some effects (like a certain boon lasts more, for instance).

1. The Black Lion trader you used was a consumable, temporary thing.
2. When you purchase things via Black Lion trading, you must go to a BL trader to acquire your stuff. Look for the golden balance-scales icon. There’s one in every city and most starter zones.
3. Without knowing exactly what you were looking at, I’d guess you saw a pistol SKIN— which can be used by anyone and can have ‘starter’ default stats. Some are very expensive.
4. Weapon sigils and armor runes can give you damage boosts. So can food and other consumables, like sharpening stones and maintenance oil.
I recommend spending some of your gems on a watchwork mining pick. It is account bound, will gather any type of mining node, and it will drop watchwork sprockets which sell well. Other unlimited gather tools are nice if you plan to craft or gather, but only the watchwork has bonus drops.
