Guild Wars 2

I made the mistake of buying an eldritch scroll on my Mesmer who was 100% world completed, I was also going for the legendary on this mesmer. I’m sitting at 138 Skill Points now and the only way I can get the Bloodstone Shard I need is to level up 62 more times. Does anyone know a decent farm which I can accumulate skills points relatively fast?

Please don’t suggest using an alt for skill points, as farming 200 on an alt would take much longer. Also don’t recommend just letting them come naturally during my journey towards my legendary because all I really need is the Precursor, some shards, ectos and a few arah runs. So I’m basically almost there.

I want a pure Skill Point farm suggestion, not too worried about karma or gold at this point since I plan on farming those on my guardian.

Actually, I think leveling an alt might be faster. My guardian is at 53 and he has around 30-50 points available. The reason I said this is because you get to do skill challenges all over again, and you get a bit of extra gold selling stuff/salvaging/etc while you level up.

But if that’s not your cup of tea, I suggest DE farming in orr or wvw. If you run with a fast capping group, you get tons of exp.

Keep in mind, the Bloodstone Shard costs 200 skill points and is soulbound, not account bound.

explore dungeon running will get you there pretty quickly mate.
pick a dungeon you know well put a team together and run it a lot every run gives you 75% of XP needed to level so 2 runs per skill point is a sweet deal.

Oh yeah that is assuming you are lv80.

dont worry about the skill points. you’ll get those as you lvl up to get the other stuff

Do you get the same amount of experience for multiple runs on the same path? Or is it reduced like the tokens are? This is what I have been doing, running the shorter dungeons.

Thats exactly what I asked people not to suggest in my post :p I’m pretty close to my legendary and have most of the gifts, the rest pretty much require gold, and every Mesmer knows orr DE farming on a mesmer to get gold is pretty painful, so I’m using my guardian for that bit.

explore dungeon running is as pure skill point farming as it gets mate nothing else will give you 75% of a level in one shot. All you need to do is speed clears and you’re set.

Running the plinx chain and Pentinent/shelter defenses for karma and gold lvls me up regularly. The side effect will be gettin even more karma an gold. Other than that supply camp runs in WvW also nets you a bunch of exp.

Also crafting will give you 10lvls per 0-400 grind. If you have none lvls that’s approx 80 lvls. It would have costed ~20 gold to lvl them all, with the price increases, probably more now
Edit: use crafting xp boosters to help when crafting for a bit more xp. Then obviously use xp boosters when farming.

if you haven’t maxed crafting yet, farm about 50-100g and effectively recycle crafted items/materials and get master crafter. 40 levels of crafting gives you 1 level’s worth of xp. you can level up 10 times an hour in that way. (and get another achievement, and get a toon that can craft any exotic they need)

edit: 40 crafting = 1 level is a slight misnomer since when you get a craft in the 250+, rares and exotics you craft give HUGE xp. (rares and exos in the last tiers i believe gave me like, 112k xp per item… ridiculous amount.)
