Guild Wars 2

Recently came back to the game after quitting. I have the season 1 wvw chest key to open it, but do not have a chest or anything in my mail. Is there a special way to claim it or am i just SOL?

Did you log in on the conclusion of the WvW Season 1 event? I think it is possible that you wouldn’t have been given the chest if you had not logged in on or after it’s final day, especially if it has been for a long time (nearly 2 years, isn’t it?).

Also check to see if you have the Mini Dolyak, just in case you somehow have magically opened the chest and retained the key.
