Guild Wars 2

Well, today I decided to alter my Mesmer to WvW Condi Roamer, as seen here:
http://metabattle.com/wiki/Build:Mesmer_-_PU_Condi_Roamer

As you can see, it requires Trailblazer’s armor. Which cannot be crafted in the game right now. I found out the hard way.

You can find the armor or weapon’s recipes for Trailblazer’s gear on TP without any hassle. The trick is, you also need Trailblazer’s Intricate Gossamer Insignia for the armors, the recipe for which cannot be found ANYWHERE. I wouldn’t mind this and would move on, if I hadn’t already purchased the mats necessary for the crafting.

Btw on the wiki it says that you can purchase the recipe at the Heroics Notary on battlegrounds or at Faction provisioners throughout Maguuma, but none sells it. As I have never seen any Trailblazer’s equipment drop, I also cannot salvage the insignia.

Why this joke, Anet?

Why?

For WvW you need to upgrade your fraction provisioner ability to max level first and you can buy it.

You can buy Trailblazer insignia/inscription recipe at Tangled depth too. Look for Nuhoch merchant( he stand at the map entrance). Note that you need Nuhoch mastery to buy it.

According to the wiki, they are availabe at the Nuhoch Mastery Vendors, not Faction provisioners. (I just double checked: they are available.)

It looks like it’s a bug that they aren’t available at the Heroics Notary, since the equivalent insignia can be found there.

Oh well… I feel stupid now. I found the mastery vendor and it is there. But still no recipe on heroics notary. Maybe a bug. I got what I wanted though. Thanks a lot!

You need to max out the provisions master WXP ability line for those to show up.

No, it’s bugged. (I just checked: of insignia/inscriptions, all of them are available except the one the OP searched for).

Looks fine to me.

INB4 he/she comes back when he/she discovers how much the insignia cost to craft due to the Maguuma Lilies. Oh, and the time gate on Charged Ambrite.

And…

TBH, I really hope that build gets nerfed into the ground because its absolutely absurd. It just facerolls, can reset at will and applies so many conditions that nothing can cleanse them and it does so while invisible. It really really needs to be adjusted.

The charged ambrite can be bought but that is tacking on another 2g to an already hefty price tag.

That’s really weird. I only had one showing.

edit: even weirder, both are available now
I wonder if it’s possible for anet to update vendor offerings now without a game update.
