Guild Wars 2

Today we unlocked the new guild armor recipe’s, so happy as we are we wanted to craft them right away. However it requires 5 “guild insignia” but it does not show how we can craft these. It text states : “Crafted from shimmering or tenebrous shards. Used to craft guild armor”.

So far i have however been unable to find shimmering or tenebrous shards (we do however get crystals from the guild ore harvest node) The crystals do not show up as possible ingredients in either the discovery tab (of any max level crafter) or mystic forge

It could be that we need a recipe first to ‘learn’ how to craft the insignia, but so far i was unable to find it, nor could i craft it with my scribe (at lv 130).

Is it working as intended and we just need to look better or is there a bug with the
“guild insignia”

see https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/hot/New-guild-armor-Info-what-we-know-so-far/first#post5792582 for more info on what we have so far.

One of my guildies linked said shards before, didn’t ask him where he got em, if I see him again ill check, if no one else has the answer by then.

EDIT: nvm, he probably only had the base item, and the issue is how to upgrade em:/

After more discussing in this topic
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Guild-insignia/first#post5795992
it sound more and more like there is a bug here.

Would be great if it could be adressed, atm it really feels like any guild upgrading the guild armorer 2 is basically throwing away 2 days or more of Aetherium and players that buy the recipe spend their crystaline ore on something they can’t complete.
