Guild Wars 2

I used to get these rather frequently when I salvaged PvP items but now I haven’t’ gotten a single one in these last several months. Have they stopped being salvageable from rank 0-30 items, are they ONLY from Tourney chest items, or have the “drop rate” been significantly reduced?

I’ve already gotten most Priory warrior weapons but there’s a few I would like still so I’m curious if any of you have managed to get your hands on any since the big patch a few months ago.

Free tokens did never drop from rank chests. The match win chest drops are the mixture of Free and Paid tournament rewards + some new, so salvaging items from those is the only way getting them, but they can either drop free or paid.

No, they DID used to be salvageable from rank chest items, that’s how I got all my Priory and Vigil items. A patch a few months back changed that, so I suspected it was only Tourney items now, thank you for confirming.

If you got tourney tokens from rank chests that would most likely be a bug.
Tourney tokes come from salvaged items from tourney wins.

Did some tourneys last night and managed to get a few, even got a couple paid tokens even though it was free. But yah, they used to drop all the time from at least rank 20 boxes. From these I got enough tokens for Vigil GS and Hammer, and Priory Axe, Shield, and Mace. I just hadn’t recalled seeing it being listed as a bug fix but I hadn’t seriously tried for any tokens for a while now.

No such thing as free nor paid tournament exists anymore. Only 1-round rated tournaments, that’s why you can get both from the same chest.

Yah true I guess I just thought that there would be a DIFFERENT way to obtain them, didn’t know they just threw them all in the same category now. How much you wanna bet I end up getting all ugly Guild armor with my paid tokens.

I gave up crafting arah armor after 30 guild armor pieces in a row. So gl

Well, the Wiki says “They have a chance to be salvaged when using a PvP Salvage Kit on PvP items found in copper, silver and gold reward chests.” should be updated then…
