Guild Wars 2

Hello everyone. I have played this game in top tier pvp for 2 years now. Throught all of that I have 3 level 80s, 2 guards and one thief. On my thief I have 46% map completion. I have decided since the state of pvp is pretty bad right now, I will try to create a legendary. Since I main meditation hammer on guardian I would like to create the Juggernaut. I have many obsidian shards and mystic covers but not much crafting levels. I am level 380 in chef and 220 in weaponsmithing. I would like to know if any of you can help me with a guide to create this. I am fully prepared to listen to reason but I don’t want to participate in the eternal PvE VS PvP bullkitten. Thank you. I am however fully ready to listen to reason and advice.
Much love
-Timotheus

You can look this over and see if it helps any. It’s mentions gold prices once, I don’t know if it’s current.

And this, you can look over for crafting to max levels. http://gw2crafts.net

You need a lv400 weaponsmith and a lv400 jeweler and then the rest is just combining stuff in the Mystic Forge.

I think you meant crafting guides to get jeweller and weaponsmith up (you don’t need chef for the Juggernaut)

This one looks good:

(I leveled my crafts by trying mostly-that’s probably not the most efficent way).

Thanks for the feedback man but I was wondering (since I’m not that much of a hardcore pve’r and haven’t ventured out of WvW and the Heart of the mists for 4 months.) if anyone could give me farming and crafting tips. And if they have some secrets about obtaining these items. I am on the European servers though I am not European. Contact me in-game if you want.

There are several maps that are best for farming certain mats.
For iron it’s Gendarren Fields or Brisban Wildlands
Platinum is Sparkfly Fen
and Mithril, well if you don’t get enough by salvaging loot, it’s everywhere on the 3 orr maps.
Orichalcum you can find on Southsun Cove, Drytop, Silverwastes, Cursed Shore and Malchor’s leap.
T6 maps are also farmed best on these maps or in wvw.
Silver dubloons might be the hardest, I got one by farming pirates in Gendarren Fields yesterday but I would probably rather farm gold than hoping for a drop.

The silver doubloons are either going to have to be bought or you can try to get them by opening chests on a level 21 to level 35. If you want to open chests, you can make several chars, level them and park them at the Pirate JP, Weyandt’s revenge, in Lions Arch or run them through a circuit of the chests in the low level areas each day, and hoping to get one.

Truthfully, you are probably better off buying them since you’ll be needing to farm a bunch of other stuff and leveling and running to chests is time consuming for low gain.

Plan to spend 2,100 gold if you were to buy all of the materials rather than farm them (not counting how much it costs to get the crafts to 400). Laurels are a great way to get those T6 mats. I would personally get the 77 clovers before seriously farming/acquiring those mats as the mystic forge recipe for clovers can yield them. SW is great for bypassing the need for karma by getting obsidian shards directly from the chests. Badges of Honor can be gained quickly in EotM. Also be aware that you can get the precursor from a collection once the expansion is released.

If you have been doing lots of PvP, enough to be good on mystic clovers. Then you’re probably off to a good start on the T6 mats, which you should worry about last imo, since you’ll be getting them a bit as you do pretty much anything in the game. For them, silverwastes seems to be the best farm as you can stack MF pretty good to get them, but you probably still PvP quite a bit which is also a good source.

Precursor is probably gonna be your main issue, so, stick to your dungeon reward tracks and mystic forge them hammers! If you’re bored, get on the chest train in the silverwastes and use 3 impalers + mystic forge stone and maybe you’ll get lucky! Dungeons if you want to learn them are also good for things to throw into the MF; they’re pretty easy to learn and if you have not yet then feel free to whisper me when I’m on, I enjoy teaching and running them (VoIP would be a req for me in this case, though).

Luckily for you you’re not gonna have to worry about the mystic clovers! Reward tracks win the day!

In regards to your crafting disciplines, there’s really no need to rush it, just use the mats you find to get the easy levels, then go through a round of creating random stuff to sell on the TP once base mats no longer give you levels. That’s if you want to be as efficient as possible of course, getting to 400 is relatively easy with those guides others have linked.

Lastly you’ll need world exploration…Which to be honest you’re probably gonna hate. My suggestion is to take it one map per day. You have plenty of time before they make any major updates for PvP to fix the current meta, as I’m certain you know. So take the time to get to enjoying the PvE world, there’s certainly a few things you’ll find fun in them.

for silver doubloons: As a PvP player, you are bound to have a lot of level 21-25 characters flying around.
Park them at some jumping puzzle and log in daily, press f, log out.
It probably won’t get you the full amount, but it will get you there. Because they can only be obtained at a certain level range, they are on the expensive side and you’ll be glad for every silver doubloon, you don’t have to buy off the TP.

Well, I went for the easy route and made the Dreamer. Compared to most Legendary’s, it’s laughably easy to craft.

Thanks for the offer about help in game. Though I am American I play on a European server. I’d you are on a European server I will try to contact you for help
