Guild Wars 2

PowerCat.5738:

Metamorphic.8567, as my question suggested, are you farming SE path 2 for Shukov’s Launch Codes?

As far as I know, the dungeon recipes replace the “bag of wondrous goods” in loot, and in SE path 2, the 2 golems at the end don’t drop the bag.

The last bag you get in SE path 2 is from the chest that spawns after the “rock gathering event”.

Yes I am farming SE for that recipe, that is also quite an interesting tip, I’ll definitely remember that. Perhaps this is a reason we’ve never seen the item on the TP, most people don’t even realize that a chest spawns there.

Lorana.2468:

Howling King drops a recipe
as does Collosus Rumblus
Ghost Eater drops an Exotic Back for level 80s.

Eternal Flame is from the last chest in CoF 2.

these are the only one’s i’ve come across, the first 3 will be affected by Magic Find because they drop from the boss, however if it comes from a chest your out of luck.

Very interesting, if that’s the case then it should mean shukov’s launch codes are to be found on path 2 then. This may mean that MkI or MkII golem would be the one to drop it since the minister himself is a “friendly” npc who drops no loot.

As many of you already know by now there are a specific subset of jeweler recipes which can be acquired randomly as loot from dungeons.

There is very little information regarding the acquisition of such recipes however and I was hoping that perhaps players could list the recipes they own and whether the recipe dropped from trash/chests/boss mobs. I own the CM recipe “Vallogs demise”
http://www.gw2db.com/items/72153-recipe-vallogs-demise
but for the life of me cannot remember what it dropped from.

After having farmed SE for an eternity now (1.5 bank tabs of 250 tokens) I am beginning to feel a tad disheartened. I’d be more inclined to do a full clear wearing MF gear if someone could confirm drops from mobs instead of just chests.
