So I’ve been easing back into GW2 after a nearly 5 month Hiatus (thanks to the influence of the Super Adventure Box and it’s awesome commercial =D), and have decided to dust off my lowbie Ranger.

After finding out there was a quiver in the game, I was ecstatic. Finally! There is one catch: I hate fractals. -_-’ Getting to level 10 and then the grinding for the drop would be total misery for me every second of the way. So I have to ask… is there a NON-fotm way to get the quiver skin? I don’t care about the stats, just the skin.

Unless they make the skin non-frac exclusive, or TP-able, you’ll have to play FotM like the rest of us.

In GW2, Trading Post plays you!

Joy. :-\

Anyhow, thanks for the response.

There’s good news and bad news.

You have to do fractals but all you need is 1 vial of condensed mists essence, which drops in level 0-9.

Fractals are the least of your worries. 50 Globs of Ectoplasm and 250 Vials of Powerful Blood are basically just a big wall of NOPE.

If you doesn’t care about the stats, you can substitute the Power Blood with a much cheaper t6 mat, such as Ancient Bone.

I’ll look into that, and if I can get some stats I still like with something cheaper, perhaps I will substitute another material. But, I do ideally want the Swift Flight quiver with Power, Precision and Critical Damage, so I’d need the blood.
250 of anything is still a lot, and it’s just another roadblock in the way of ever hoping to get a Legendary — but that’s another topic.

Scroll down, and there’s the list of back items. Out of the materials used (Blood, Fang, Claw, Scale, Bone) I believe Bone is the cheapest. Good luck!

I got 3 drops by the time I hit lvl 10 of the item needed to craft the quiver. It seems to drop semi often, hopefully it won’t take you to long.

Tarnished Coast
Critical Impact [Crit]

the p.blood drops more in the harpy fractal, so that’d be a good fractal to hit up.

Don’t disturb me, I have a cat in me at the moment.

i could also recommend to find 4 players needing the vial.
Choose 1st fractal to be ascalon OR dredge…..

Farm mobs with magic find equip/food if you have ….

You can also solo swamp mobs. with infinite spawns

GW2 balance:
A PvE player is supposed to avoid a 1-2 second 1 shotting aoe.
A WWW player is considered uncapable of avoiding a 5,75 second aoe for half his health.

Just bring a new character into Fractals if you already have a 10+ main character, the drop chance seem to be insanely high for them. I got 3 vials on my first run once (Dredge) :S

Other than that bit of randomness, making a quiver in the mystic toilet is fairly cheap (think I spent like 15g on mine, I also had some materials laying around).
