Guild Wars 2

I’ve decided to head for making the full set of luminescent armour, but I need to imbue beetles remains from Dry Top for it. Now here’s the problem. I wasn’t able to get past Prospect Valley and I can’t find any way of how I am supposed to proceed.

If to follow wiki it says:

“gather insect parts from nearby beetles is a level 80 event that occurs in the Challenger Cliffs”

getting to Challenger Cliffs: “Start from Vine Bridge Waypoint in Uplands Oasis and take the vine bridge leading southwest”

Getting to Uplands Oasis: “Start from Restoration Refuge Waypoint in Treadrock Uplands and head north then west through the canyon until you reach the oasis.”

Getting to Treadrock Uplands: “Start from Prosperity Waypoint in Prospect Valley and travel through Scarlet’s house on the west side of town. Scarlet’s Secret Room will lead players here upon completion.”

if I wiki Scarlet’s Secret Room it comes up with this: "The first thing you want to do is click on play episode in your story journal and read your newly-received mail. Then head over to the Town of Prosperity and enter Scarlet’s Secret Room.

Talk to Marjory, Kasmeer, then Taimi. Go through the hole in the bookcase. Explore the tunnel inspecting each item with a green star Storyline (interface).png. Then talk with Taimi again."

does that mean that I have to have a specific story chapter bought to be able to pass trough? I’m completely lost here. Can someone at least post a piccy of which house I’m looking for?

hmmmmm no idea.

Go to Prosperity WP. Go from there to the town of Prosperity, taking the first entrance into the town. It’ll be the first house on your left after entering there (the door is open). Once inside the house, go down to the bottom level, and then follow the path to the next area.

I have the story and the book case is missing the moment I enter the building. If you still have the book case, or can’t even enter the house where Scarlet’s stuff is, then yeah you probably need it unlocked. I would search every house in that pueblo-esque village (across the quick sand) you can outside of the dark mining cave first to make sure though.

No, you don’t need to buy a story chapter to get there. However, the house in question, I think, can be blocked off by vines during an event that happens there.
I’m not there at the moment, so I might not be remembering it right. I’ll try and swing through Dry Top and look in a little bit to be sure…

thank you! Found it :>

Ah you got it? Lovely! Happy adventuring!

This question comes up so often when I’m playing in Dry Top that I have a canned, cut-and-paste response giving instructions for getting out of Prospect Valley to the rest of the map. But I can’t be in Dry Top 24×7. That’s what NPCs are for. At this point there should be a scout in town to give this information, since there are so many players new to the map who don’t have the story.
