Did someone ever mention that you’re great? 🙂
Well, you are… 🙂

Does is matter what level of champion for the weapons or will any champ drop any weapon? Like will ORR drop a cooler wep than Queensdale

I think that higher level zone have a better chance of dropping an exotic weapon. I might be wrong.

Awesome work! Are you planning on also adding the chest and what weapon/skin can come out of it?
Would be awesome!

What you’re talking about would be this: http://dulfy.net/2013/08/06/gw2-champion-weapon-skins/

You forgot the Spider Champion behind the inn where the Champ Boar spawns. There is no event for it but it does drop a chest

I did not forget, it is there..

thanks for this, Dulfy! looking forward to seeign the rest of the maps. : ))
quick “typo” – i think the map for Phinney Ridge/ Champ Oakheart in Queensdale is misplaced. currently it shows the same image as for the boar/wasp/spider, etc

thanks, corrected 🙂

You missed on champion in Gendarran Fields, it is by Almuten Waypoint, in an alley below the house. There are 5 spider eggs, if you squish the 5th one a “Champion Enraged Spider” spawns, no event, just a hidden something

thanks, added

This work is outstanding! How are you able compile and publish with this sort of quality is such short of a time?!

I started a week before the patch 😛

what champion drop cobalt?

a lot of different champs seem to drop cobalt. i think it may be one that is a shared drop amongst Champs. i got mine from a Ghost champ. others have reported orges, as well as destroyer champs.

I got mine in Queensdale the other day. I’ve just started playing GW2 and was only level 15. I cant remember which one dropped it tho.

There is also a Champion Icebrood Norn that you missed in that little alcove just under the alcove with the skill point in it (and the Champion Kodan), in the far North West of Frostgorge Sound. Lots of champions in that little area!

this is a great area. you can cycle through the 3 on a relatievly short amount of downtime. lots of gilded strongboxes, and loot to be had. : ))

Dulfy, you are amazing, and a lot of the people I know on Guild Wars 2 think so too. Thanks for doing what you do! 🙂

Is the loot from champions once per day? Some people in my guild told me this, but I don´t know…

Nope, you can keep farming them and get drops.

Thanks, because they say “the farm” in Queensdale is an exploit and Anet will ban for it…I don´t farm in Queensdale but thanks 🙂

How is the farm in Queensdale an exploit.. it is just people killing champions normally. Unless you hear from arenanet, I wouldn’t trust those claims

Yeah, they don´t listen and believe the chest is only per day per champion and actually the drop in Queensdale is bugged, but evidently isn´t…

Defend the giant ooze at Doctor Bleent’s camp

You Defeat the giant ooze, not defend it. 🙂 Outstanding work here though!

Not sure if you have a note in there for it that I’m not seeing, but there’s a champion spider that spawns just a little ways southwest of the champion cave troll by the Icegate waypoint in Gendarran fields. I’ve spent a few hours a the last couple of days just going back and forth between those two.

Dulfy! I love your guides, and this one in particular. I made a world map of all the champions using your individual maps, and I wanted to share it with you. 😀 http://www.flickr.com/photos/100246176@N04/9507865322/ If you want to download it, the “original” size is the best, since you can read the text.

Ohh neat! Thanks 🙂

I got entropy from ice brood Kodak near drakkar waypoint I could have sold it but it looks way to cool ;3 also I really want crystal guardian it looks so cool…

Great for a guardian ;3

[…] Champion locations and maps […]

Wayfarer foothills has an extra champ that spawns with an event in Molensk (all the way to the south) it’s a dredge champion.

There’s actually 2 Champ Rams. One in Dredgehaunt Cliffs and one in
Timberline Falls. I’ve soloed both. Here is a vid of me doing the Ram in
Timberline

It’s in Kronger Pass West of Kyesjard Waypoint on the hill above the pathway where all the earth elementals are.
There’s also a Champion Frostmaw wurm in Lornar’s Pass. Here’s the vid for that one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHIRpAZLh8A&feature=share&list=PLLJ6gx5z7mibfvbSDtsmOakR2i9K323Io&index=46
It’s just below the Bearstone Shrine poi in Bouldermouth Vale

There’s a Champion Modnir High Sage in Harathi Hinterlands in the High Timber Claim area at the Blackhold Mine Camp poi [&BJ4AAAA=]. Surrounded by some Veteran Modnir Commanders. Go all the way to the bottom of the mines where the water is. The champ and vets are standing at a landing at bottom of ramp.

1 correction to what I said. There is no longer a Champion Ram in Dredgehaunt Cliffs. It has been replaced with a Veteran, lame. and the Champion Risen Sea Turtles in the Sparkfly Fen jumping puzzle has been replaced with vets as well. The champ ram in Timberline Falls is still there. I just soloed him yesterday.
