GW2 Guild Bounty Guild Mission guide

A guide to the GW2 Guild Bounty Guild Mission with maps for Guild Bounty NPCs. Special thanks to Klinkie and Ranth Gearshot of of Immortals Reawakened for the help in compiling the information. Keep in mind that this is a work in process.

General Information

Guild Mission merit reward weekly reset time: Saturday evening (7pm EST) – same time as the daily reset time.

Due to the strict time limit and the huge pathing radius of the bounty NPCs, it is advised that you have guild members track down all the possible NPCs and follow them before beginning the Bounty Hunt timer. This way, you won’t waste time looking for these NPCs and can just use the time to kill them.

Tier 1 NPCs to Hunt down Time Limit Guild Merit Reward
1 2 15 min 15
2 3 15 min 20
3 6 15 min 25

Another thing to point out is that you can stop NPCs from moving by talking to them. Therefore, if you need to keep a NPC in one place, just spam F to them and they won’t move. For tougher NPCs, it is helpful to stop them near a waypoint so you can waypoint rush the NPC as needed.  (This no longer works as of the March 26 patch)

Need influence? Guild Bounty Training missions (costs 300 influence, takes 3 days to build) give 3k influence each time it is completed and there is no weekly limit to how many you can do them. 

Guild Bounty NPCs

For each of the NPCs below, a pathing map is or will be provided. It is recommended that you follow the path outlined by the red line when searching for these Guild Bounty NPCs as that is the path they take while walking around the zone.

2-MULT (Timberline Falls)


  • This defective prototype weather golem has been storming around Timberline Falls. Target needs to be brought in for a software patch.
  • Fight mechanics: Every 25%, 2-MULT will stop, spread his out arm to do to a whirlwind attack that throw lots of sparks out within 1000-1200 range. You need to kill these sparks and then interact with them to throw them back to to 2-MULT to remove his Overlord buff that otherwise makes him immune to damage.

Ander “Wildman” Westward (Southsun Cove)


  • Wanted for illegal trafficking of exotic wildlife. Suspected of attempting to wrangle karka in their island habitat.
  • Ander Wildman Westward is trapped inside a Veteran Karka. This Veteran Karka is unusual as makes a lot of unusual noises and has a speech bubble (see pic below)

gw2-ander-wildman-westward-guild-bountygw2-ander-wildman-westward-guild-bounty-4

Locating Ander “Wildman” Westward isn’t particular hard if you keep two things in mind. Most of the Veteran Karkas are on the area covered by the small circle and that is where I would search first. Stop for a few seconds near every Veteran Karka and see if they make any weird noises or speech bubbles. If you don’t find any weird veteran karaks in that area, you will need to look for a veteran karka on the rest of the island. The rest of the island  isn’t veteran karka’s natural habitat so if you spot a veteran karka outside the small circle there is a very good chance that Ander is trapped inside.

Big Mayana (Sparkfly Fen)


  • This voracious hylek is wanted for questioning about a recent poisoning. Target is thought to have taken refuge in the canopy of Sparkfly Fen.
  • Look for Suspicious Tree around Sparkfly Fen, see map below. Note that the map doesn’t contain all the possible locations.You can interact with the trees but they won’t yield anything until the Guild Bounty with Big Mayana as a target starts.
  • Fight mechanics: It appears Big Mayana will randomly swallow someone within a certain range so do this fight at max range if possible. If you get swallowed, try hit the button with the boot symbol (it will be random everytime) to get out. 5+ players is recommended for this boss.

  • Wanted for unauthorized removal and vandalism of books as well as nonpayment of library fines. Last seen fleeing down snow-covered slopes from a library.

Half Baked Komali (Mount Maelstrom)


  • Wanted for reckless endangerment and unlicensed geomantic experimentation, including a recent attempt to immerse an inquest engineer in a lava pool.
  • Fight Mechanics: Half Baked Komali has a fire shield that makes him extremely resistant to damage and gains 1 stack of might every time someone attack him. To remove this shield, you must do the following: 1) Stop attacking Komali when the shield is up to avoid an increase in stacks of might 2) Use boon removals to stripe both his might stacks and stability. Once his stability is removed, you can use knockbacks to push him out of his circle, which cause him to lose the fire shield. It is very important to stop attacking him when he has the fire shield as not only you do no damage to him, you also cause him to gain might stacks, making removing his stability a pain.  (strategy provided by vrava on reddit).

Tricksy Trekksa (Blazeridge Steppes)


  • This self-styled master of disguise is wanted for intelligence debriefing. Reports of out-of-place creatures wandering near Steeleye Span may be related.

Here is Tricksy Trekksa’s pathing drawn by Ezmode. Remember that Trekksa will show up as either Wind Rider, Cow, Moa or Pig!

Super Important: Sometimes Tricksy Trekksa will appear off her path and can be found on the west portion of the zone. So have someone check the entire western section as well in addition to her path.

Yanonka the Rat-Wrangler (Fields of Ruin)


  • This rogue ogre is wanted for spying on and sabotaging various factions vying for control of the Fields of Ruin. Target is notorious for using pet rats to do her dirtiest work.
  • Look for Suspicious Rats found at the locations marked on the map. Note that not all the locations are marked on the map.
  • Fight mechanics: Has lots of powerful rat pets as adds and seem to shadowstep players a lot. May need a large group to tackle her. Use single target attacks on the boss and do not attack any rats as they will attack you when hit.
