Reflecting Crystal

From Guild Wars 2 Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

Reflecting Crystals are bundles which, when carried by a player, reflect incoming projectile attacks back to their source. They are found in several dungeons and are sometimes pivotal to successfully completing the dungeon.

Reflecting Crystals are dropped from Veteran Jade Colossi and Veteran Jade Maw Tentacles during the Jade Maw encounter in the Solid Ocean Fractal. Holding one when Jade Maw uses its beam attack will prevent its carrier from taking damage from the attack and allowing them to use Reflected Orb to throw it at the Jade Maw, which is the only way to damage it. Veteran Jade Maw Tentacles drop Reflecting Crystals both when they spawn and when they're killed.

Reflecting Crystals can be found in various areas within the Ruined City of Arah. They are particularly useful in combating Orrian Guard Turrets, but they are also extremely helpful if not required to defeat the Legendary Jotun Stargazer.
