Guild Wars 2

I continue to find blade shards and I’m not interested into the backpack…I would love to give them away to my friends that need them but they are account… bound so, I thought, can delete them…yeah but what if they are going to add a shard sink to the game?
Anyone else is interested in this?

this should be a tradable crafting material….there is no way normal character can craft the backpiece…. farming them takes so much time it is crazy.. if we could buy them from trading post, that would be more interesting

I didn’t think that there ever was a trader. The shards were for the Spinal Back.

There was no trader when blade shards dropped en mass.

So I checked, and I was wrong!

The temporary festival of 4 winds trader traded for them long after the Aetherblades & Scarlet events were over. Unfortunately this trader is probably dead, his ship blown up and crashed over Dry Top.

Delete your Blade shards. 100 Blade shards for a green weapon is not worth the inventory spot that it will take to keep them.

Who’s farming the shards these days? Mystic Forge sprocket promotion is much faster (albeit a lot more expensive)

I’ve had a couple characters in the aetherblade JP for ages farming them for the backpack.
