Guide:How to make WvW Legendary Armor

Introduction

This guide lists the requirements for a full set of legendary armor, but you can also craft each piece individually. In that case, just divide all of the requirements by 6. Keep in mind that the WvW Skirmish Ticket values are slightly different depending on which armor piece you're crafting.

Timegate: 20 weeks without events

There are two versions of WvW legendary armor. The base version is the Triumphant Hero's Armor and the more expensive version that requires WvW rank 500 is the Mistforged Triumphant Hero's Armor. The Mistforged version has a slight blue glow effect on the armor as well as a graphical effect specifically on the chestpiece, but stats are identical between the two.
