Desert Rose Gone?
Yeah, they removed it from the southsun survival loot table.
Currently playing Heart of Thorns.
Well that’s a shame. Did I miss something on the wiki, or has it just not been updated?
Isn’t it in the laurel merchant? It hasn’t been in southsun as long as I know since the event last year was over.
I’ve seen the Fervid Censer on several vendors, but I got that one when it was new. I haven’t seen the Desert Rose anywhere but the Trading Post, and it’s disappearing there as well.
Edit: It is apparently on vendors that use the old currency, but that’s only for people who were playing back then and might still have some of that currency laying around.

There are a lot of seasonal and storyline items that are no longer available. The items for the colored ascended blades, the scarlett headpiece, tons of weapon skins. There’s no promise that any of them will return. They may just be a reward for veteran players.
I wasn’t even aware the Desert Rose was available in any capacity for months. Why is there a sudden complaint about this among many discontinued items?
Because they start getting more expensive.

The Desert Rose was only available from the Zephyr Sanctum event AFAIK.
I bought mine last year when the event was again online, and the prices were
falling down.
Best MMOs are the ones that never make it. Therefore Stargate Online wins.
I sold mine for a few gold. But of course I had no idea they would remove it from all loot tables subsequently.
Yes the desert rose no longer drops from Southsun Survival. They briefly reintroduced it for people that missed out on LS1 alongside the Zephyr Rucksack backpiece but it was temporary and now gone.

I can’t speak for anyone else, but for me it’s because I don’t play often and use the wiki when I want to quickly look up something I don’t recognize, and I see nothing on the wiki saying it’s no longer available. I’ve found the wiki to usually be an efficient resource for this kind of thing. It certainly was in Guild Wars 1. I even used Google when I started getting suspicious, and I couldn’t find anyone saying it stopped dropping there either. It made sense that you won’t be able to purchase it from vendors that require a currency that is no longer obtainable, less obvious that it’s no longer an extremely rare drop from an activity that is still in the game (especially considering all of the season one rewards now on the laurel vendor).
