Guild Wars 2

During the recent Invasion of Lions Arch I spent hours gathering items needed for the Ascended Spinal Backpack. I spent so much time in WvW gathering Empyreal Frags, and a ton of money on Elonian Wine and Recipes and Power Cores , Vision Crystal and Gift of Blades etc. I still have two sets of Advanced Spinal Backpack but they aren’t Tempered (Ascended). I just now surpassed the point where I can finally make the Tempered blades and I found that I tossed out >250 blades, that I needed to make the Tempered Backpack. Is there a way to recover those or am I SOL ?

thanks

Sorry for the long winded whine but…I tossed out the needed ~ 375 blades JUST to make room because they were virtually useless (so I thought at the time) along with Found Belongings and other things I gathered at that event.

Unfortunately, you most likely could not have those items replaced. The good news is that Blades Shards are drops, and/or can be collected from Sprocket Generators, and certain Chests.

Acquisition

Dropped by Aetherblades
Contained in Bag of Alliance Supplies
Rare gather from Sprocket Generator
Magnificent Chest at the end of the Not So Secret Jumping Puzzle

Good luck.

Thank you Inculpatus. I am not bitter or anything. Not everything is lost. I did gain a ton of WvW experience.

From reading the forums I gather ANet will restore some items but not others. They will restore items bought with real money then deleted and precursors/Legendaries accidentally salvaged. They don’t seem to replace event items (like the special meta rewards such as Sha’tterer wings) or other items salvaged/deleted.

So based on that I would say the answer is no, they won’t replace the blade shards.

Thanks Asstral Projections, that at least tells me that I asked in the proper place.
