Legendary Chak Gerent

From Guild Wars 2 Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

Legendary Chak Gerents are powerful chak which spawn during the King of the Jungle meta-event in each of the four lanes around Ley Line Confluence in Tangled Depths. Killing all four of the Chak Gerents during King of the Jungle is required for the successful completion of the meta-event.

The Gerents are called the Chak's 'defensive measure' against the four cannons which are siphoning ley line energy for power.

Notes[edit]

  • Killing a Chak Gerent is required for many collections.
  • Successful completion of the King of the Jungle meta-event is required to obtain the Mistward Helm Casing, not slaying one as the collection hint describes.

Trivia[edit]

  • The meaning of the word 'gerent' is "one that rules or manages."
