Guild Wars 2

You can buy the exotic armor and weapons you need with Badges and a little bit of gold – so just go participate in WvW, earn the badges (and gold) then go to the Armor/Weapon Master in your Citadel and buy what you need. The only thing beyond that are the ascended jewelry items, which will cost you Laurels and either gold or Globs of Ecto (which you can get by salvaging rare and exotic items).

If you want ascended armor or weapons, you will need to craft them unless there is another method for getting them that I don’t know.

So, tl;dr, go fight and use the spoils to buy what you need – for the most part.

I have been a member of EMP (and its previous incarnation ESOL) for about a month. Everyone has been fun to hang out with, both in PvE and WvW. Noodles’ WvW leadership as well as overall guild leadership has been stellar. I definitely recommend EMP to anyone looking to join a guild on Jade Quarry that supports all GW2 has to offer, especially if you have any interest in WvW. Jade Quarry is competitive at Tier One in WvW and it is all due to the leadership and support of guilds like EMP.
