What’s the easiest way to get the 500 of each Bloodstone Dust, Dragonite Ore, and Emypreal Fragments?

Obsidian Shards should be no major difficulty… I’m assuming… is that assumption correct?

Also, use caveman terms, I got the game a month ago and still have no idea what a lot of anything means.

The easiest way of obtaining Bloodstune Dust and Emypreal Fragments is by running dungeons, they drop in abundance from final chests that you receive when completing each path daily.

Best way of obtaining Dragonite Ore is by simply farming world bosses as well as the temple events in the Orr maps (Straits of Devastation, Malchor’s Leap, Cursed Shore). World bosses spawn on set times, you can view a schedule of the upcoming world bosses through the following link:

Just copy and paste the waypoint code in your chat and you will get the nearest waypoint where the event spawns.

As for Obsidian Shards, as far as my knowledge goes, you only need 30 of them to craft an ascended weapon. The most common way of obtaining them is through the karma merchant in Straits of Devastation. The merchant is only available upon completing Balthazar temple event, so if the temple is not open on your map, you may have to gather enough people to complete it. Each Obsidian Shard costs 2100 karma, therefore you’re going to need 63k karma overall to buy enough Obsidian Shards. That isn’t much really, and you probably already do have more than that just by levelling to 80 alone. If not, just spend an hour or two on the Edge of the Mists train (accessible by pressing the “B” button) and you should have enough karma.

Dragonite also drops in abundance from the locked chests in dry top. If you can stomach grinding the geodes that is…

The materials are just one of your tirbulations….what’s your crafting level?

Besides having to farm or buy some wood, I had all the needed materials for my Weapons….the problem was getting all 3 crafting disciplines up to 500….I don’t even want to think about how much that (is) costing me (I’m still working on Artificer…)

Once you start doing dungeons and killing champions regularly you’ll have so much bloodstone dust and empyreal fragments you’ll just want to get rid of them.
So my advice is not to worry about those 2 mats: you’ll probably get plenty while farming for gold and other high tier mats…

Dragonite will take the longest but the easiest way to get dragonite is:

a) EoTM train. Keeps will give anywhere from 15-30 dragonite from what I’ve experienced.
b) World boss farming. The bosses spawn at specific times which can be located online. Dulfy.net has a good boss timer. To save time, the main bosses you want to hit are: Karka Queen, Shatterer, Golem Mk II. Just these 3 bosses alone will net you over 50 dragonite/day.
c) Dry Top buried chests. These things tend to drop a significant amount of dragonite, seemingly at random, but some chests have netted me 18 or so dragonite, so it is worth it.

The other materials you should get/have tons already. Empyreal fragments are 2nd hardest, but if you run EoTM train you will make hundreds/day.

I won’t stop because I can’t stop.

Make sure you participate in the WvW tournament. According to the blog post, even third place will get 100 tickets which can be exchanged for 160 dragonite ore.

And 5 events is ridiculously easy to get, just due Eotm for a half an hour and you’ll get it.

Anything I post is just the opinion of a very vocal minority of 1.

Emypreal Fragments are easy to farm. There are chests all over PvE. (e.g 5 in Queensday, 5 in Ashford Plains—ect. ). No problem getting enought to make your stars.
