PvP Legendary Armor Crafting Guide

Introduction

GW2 has 3 sets of legendary armors and one of them comes from PvP. In this step-by-step guide you'll learn how to craft the Legendary Glorious Hero's Armor.

While sPvP uses a different stat template and legendary armor is not helping you out in any way there, it's immensely useful for every other area of the game. Legendary armor incentivizes PvE/WvW players to try their luck in PvP while also making it easier for PvP players to jump straight into any other area of the game.

Legendaries are convenience items first and foremost. They're stored in your account wardrobe shared across all characters. Their stats can be changed for free any time out of combat, upgrades can be removed freely and transmuting new skins onto them is free.

We'll need 4 components to make a piece of armor:

• A piece of Ascended PvP gear you seek to upgrade to Legendary.

Accountbound Materials

Before we get into the crafting details let's talk about all the things you'll need to earn from PvP in order to craft your desired set of armor.

• PvP League Ticket - final reward of every non-repeatable League Reward Chest, earned through playing ranked games.

• Ascended Shard of Glory - final reward of every League Reward Chest, earned through playing ranked games.

• - guaranteed drop from various loot boxes and the final reward chest of several reward tracks.
