Guild Wars 2

Hello,

I am crafting HOPE and I just finished Vol. 4. Now I am going to finish the Mystic Forge parts. I noticed I need 250 Fulgurite and 250 Crystalline Ore.

This seems like a lot and I was wondering if anyone could give me some insight on how to gather enough of these as efficiently as possible.

Thank you for the help!

Lots of noxious pods —- however you can also trade the GH vendor GH commends for Crystalline Ore (1 for 1)

If you farm up enough currency for about 170 machetes, that should be enough to get you a stack of crystalline ore in three runs so long as you participate in the meta and open every pod.

It just occurred to me that the node for crystalline ore is misnamed. They really are…
Obnoxious Pods.

As to the https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Fulgurite you should have plenty of the components of that just from regular HoT map play.

For crystalline ore you can take alts through Bitter Harvest and Hearts and Minds for a nice amount of them (which has a side benefit of getting you more ley armor pieces and completing that collection gets you an ascended armor piece), but mostly you need to do a few full DS metas then head to every pod you can find and use up all your machetes while ignoring treasure mushrooms or other combat events.

It is also possible to multiloot DS … some of the time. No idea what makes it work though.
