Mechanics[edit]

Each mark can only be used to exchange for stat selectable Ascended items that particular crafting discipline can craft.

Available stats depend on which expansions are owned.

Each merchant requires a currency unique to that game mode. Certain currencies are heavily timegated.

  • BLING-9009 -  Fractal Relic.png Fractal Relics and  Fractal Research Page.png Fractal Research Pages (up to 6 per day or 46 per week)
    • Assuming only 3 pages are obtained per day, it will take 30 days to purchase a full set of armor and 8 days per weapon.
      • Completing all weekly fractals missions for 25 pages per week will reduce this down to ~3.52 weeks or 25 days for a full set of armor and 7 days per weapon
    • With 6 pages a day, it will take 15 days to purchase a full set of armor and 4 days per weapon.
      • Completing all weekly fractal missions for 46 pages per week will reduce this to ~1.91 weeks or 14 days for a full set of armor and 4 days per weapon
  • Skirmish Supervisor -  Memory of Battle.png Memories of Battle and  WvW Tournament Claim Ticket.png WvW Skirmish Claim Ticket (up to 365 per week)
    • Assuming the maximum amount of tickets per week, it will take 4 weeks to purchase a full set of armor or 1 week per weapon.
  • Ascended Armor League Vendor and Ascended Weapon League Vendor -  Shard of Glory.png Shards of Glory and  Ascended Shard of Glory.png Ascended Shard of Glory (up to 400 per season; additional 100 when Byzantium is repeated)
    • Assuming only the minimum of 400 per season, it will take 3 seasons to purchase a full set of armor or 1 season per weapon.
    • The final reward track will have to be completed an additional 8 times if one is to purchase a full set of armor within 1 season.
