Special Ops armor refers to a group of armor sets that can be acquired in the Guild Wars 2: End of Dragons expansion.

Acquisition[edit]

The complete set is obtained by completing six collection achievements (all of which begin with the name "Special Ops") in the What Lies Within achievement category, per the bullet point list below. Refer to the linked achievement pages for guidance on each collection.

Each collection awards an ascended container containing a choice of one Ascended armor piece. Unlocking one weight also unlocks the skin for the other two weights.

After completing each individual achievements, Exotic consumables which apply only the skins (equivalent to using transmutation charges) can be purchased from Captain Wing Jun in exchange for 70,000 Karma and 125 Research Note.

Walkthrough[edit]

Speak with Captain Wing Jun a short distance west of Waypoint (map icon).png Park Mining Ops Waypoint and go through all of his dialogue to earn the World Lore: Special Ops Rescue Agency pre-requisite achievement, which then unlocks the following:

Completing all three of the basic courses unlocks a further two collections:

And completing both advanced courses unlocks the final collection:

Note that each collection has a fairly significant materials sink element to it; 250 Globs of Ectoplasm, 1 Xunlai Electrum Ingot and between 10-40 Pieces of Dragon Jade, in addition to a piece of Ancient armor.

Unlocking the skins for all pieces unlocks the Captain's Helmet skin consumable via the Special Ops Armor Collection achievement.
