How Many Legendary Insights for Armor?
Are you eager to acquire the legendary armor in Guild Wars 2? You’ve come to the right place! In this article, we’ll dive into the world of legendary insights, exploring how many you’ll need to get your hands on this coveted armor. Buckle up, because we’re about to delve into the details!
Direct Answer:
A total of 150 insights are needed to get legendary armor. But, before we dive into the details, let’s talk about the different sources of legendary insights.
Weekly Cap:
You can earn a maximum of 31 legendary insights per week. This includes:
• 15 from Heart of Thorns raid encounters
• 10 from Path of Fire raid encounters
• 5 from End of Dragons Challenge Mote strike missions, including Season 1’s Old Lion’s Court
Total Timeframe:
Assuming you earn the weekly cap consistently, it will take you 6 weeks to accumulate the necessary 150 insights.
WvW Legendary Armor:
If you’re interested in acquiring WvW legendary armor, there’s a different approach. You can earn coalescence, a legendary ring, by completing collection achievements. These collections require Path of Fire expansion and running some raids. You’ll need to loot this item from the chest across Soulless Horror’s chest after defeating the Soulless Horror.
Ascended Armor:
Now, if you’re wondering about ascended armor, the answer is that the quality of the gear doesn’t matter. A level 1 white piece with no stats will have the same effect as a legendary. If you lose some of the starting pieces, don’t worry – the PvP lobby has armor and weapon vendors who sell them for a few coppers.
Crafting Grandmaster Marks:
Players can craft Grandmaster Marks to exchange for ascended armor at certain vendors. The recipes for these marks can be purchased from BLING-9009, the Ascended Armor League Vendor or the Skirmish Supervisor.
Farming Pristine Fractal Relics:
If you’re looking to farm pristine fractal relics, the main source is the reward chests from doing the Daily Fractals achievements. This can give you a total of 15 per day if all dailies and recommended are done.
Conclusion:
There you have it – 150 legendary insights are required to get legendary armor, and you can earn them through various means. The weekly cap is 31, and it will take you 6 weeks to accumulate the necessary insights if you earn the cap consistently. Remember, the quality of the gear doesn’t matter, and you can craft Grandmaster Marks for ascended armor. If you’re looking to farm pristine fractal relics, the Daily Fractals achievements are the way to go. Happy gaming!
