How can i get them ?^
- Tim D Gamer
  
  Killing champions. Each “family” of enemies (Flame Legion, Inquest, Oakhearts, and so forth) have specific skins tied to them.
  - apnea
    
    just tell me who drops rapier and u will find me there till i’ll drop
    - a-max
      
      most likely pirate champions, so go hunt pirates
      - HowellQ
        
        Yep. Aetherblades are outlaws, so any outlaw could drop them. I am not entirely sure about this, it’s just an assumption. (Bandits and Pirates in the Pavilion *wink-wink*).
    - grey
      
      saw Lord Faren using 2 rapiers in the instance!
    - Dan
      
      my guess is ghost in ascalon, it has the same blue glow that AC weapon have
  - pegasus
    
    thank you mate I’ m interested in the cobalt greatsword :)))
  - asdf
    
    How about that nameless 2h hammer? Looks baller as fuck.
Jora

Thanks for these 🙂 You going to be doing an update showing the cultural weapon sets Dulfy?
Fat Pickle Smith

Yes! More cool GS skins! We don’t have much of them…oh wait…
Jor Kaleen

I really start to find it ridiculous how A-net is focusing on Greatswords instead of other skins… I mean, compare the amount of good looking GS and then Longbows. It is just ridiculous…
- Blaine Milburn
  
  To be honest the skins in this game are terrible. I wish they would put better looking ones in. A 5 year old can think of cooler weapon designs
  - TR
    
    I have to admit you’re kinda right, I have a feeling that ANets design team has no real oversight and everyone just kind of comes up with an idea for a weapon, throws it together and they gather up the assets and toss them in the game without ever really looking to see if they’re even passably decent
- LocoMan
  
  To be fair this greatsword isn’t that new, though. It’s a recolored version of ebonblade with the particle effects added
SerialX

Sad every weapon got a new skin, but Daggers got an existing one with a slightly shinier blade. Can we get some nice looking Dagger skins for once instead of only getting Greatswords?
- Tim D Gamer
  
  To be fair, just about all of these weapons are either recolors or existing skins with new particle effects. I agree though, the dagger leaves a lot to be desired.
- Justsaying
  
  I was hoping we could get something like the purple sword with shadow effect for daggers (the sword was in the patch screenshot preview), but no. Every time there’s an update with new skins you just know daggers won’t get anything good looking.
- skull9871 .
  
  every weapon? look again no pistols at all
Sudrabains

guild shield is also new i think
Fat Pickle Smith

Hmm at first we were crying that there’s no updates no new stuff. Now ANet is working on super speed adding new stuff every 2 weeks and we’re getting crtl+c ctrl+v weapons. I hope that they will find sweet spot someday.
korval

Much better than the Sovereign skins! Love the name for the hammer… “Truth!” 🙂
- Tywele
  
  “Truth” is an axe …
HamsterMasterSamster

RAPIER. Neeeeeeeed!
Anonymous

The conch is Cutthroat Caller. The plant trident is Rockweed Spire.
Anni

I want that Mecha Anchor SO bad. One of few hammer skins that actually looks like a bigass HAMMER and not a tiny little sledgehammer.
1DERYRS

Where does the Cobalt drop?!?!
Jopn

staff is a fucking joke as usual
Some Body

Wow, those skins…very underwhelming.
- Ianpact
  
  subjective
B;ah

Skins are so awesome
Hello

Broken hyperlink: Occultist Flame, third picture
digi_owl

Such awesome torches, and necromancers can’t use them. Why ANet, why?!
- The Spirit Molecule
  
  I fucking know, right? Total necro torches. Ranges running around with a skull torch just doesn’t seem right…
Skins

Any idea from which Champions to get these skins?

Specifically

[&AgG5rwAA] – Greatsword

[&AgGkrwAA] – Hammer

[&AgGprwAA] – Sword
- Jefferson Sanchez Tampus
  
  ^ THAT HAMMER any info about this dulfy?
jnx

ok soo much better, thank you Anet.
Kaeti

Can you get these weapons from drops inside The Crown Pavilion ?
- Titan
  
  I doubt it since they drop from champions of a certain type.
The Spirit Molecule

Whoa. These are so badass.
binary fool

OMG Finally nice looking hammer!!!!
I wonder if you skins are tradeable.
Lunar

Mace looks like shit … like every time
Zel

I hope this is not all I would love to see some cool new staves, the monsoon one might aswell be lvl 1 staff, generic design, no effect, nothing 🙁
Steve MD

yea these ones are way batter then the other skins they just came out with
bester

Riffle,staff,and dagger sucks, and there is not even 1 pistol ? joke !
hitnaz

really did no one get the rapier or the purple sword yet?
Aurora

This can’t be all can it :(? Dang it, I was hoping for a cool pistol for the thief I’m leveling. Or a nice dagger instead of these generic, dull ones! Definitely getting that purple glowy sword though, and I wish I had a character that still needed a greatsword skin because both of them look awesome!
Tanvir Saini

The rifle is titled as watchwork portal device.
Nëmfall

I can see 40+ Cobalt on the TD…Any idea on where to loot it? Ascalon seems likely but…x)
Yep

Karka longbow and shortbow are sure obvious…
Chance

The rapier is Bonetti’s Rapier
Mistro

The Impaler has been found as a drop from the bag that the boar in Queensdale now drops, so it likely comes from beast family champions.
Noah

Got a scepter (Scepter of the Highborn) from a bag off the champ spider in Queensdale, located on the hill southeast of the hunting lodge poi.
Chance

[&AgG5rwAA] – Greatsword: This is the Crystal Guardian and is now up on the TP.
digi_owl

Takoji

- Terrors

Arellus

The currently “nameless” torch is actually called Razah’s Nightmare. Just got it in a drop, and it is showing up on the trading post as well.
- Dulfy

Marco

        Akamon
        
        thanks for sharing, doode. wish me luck! :DD
    - HowellQ
      
      Yeah his name is Svanir Shaman 😉 Frozen Maw is the place.
Deathdance

The Light Hammer its Called Genesis on TP 250g
Ares Zax

Aside from the Rapier who everybody loves (and love the Princess Bride/GW1 nod too), I really like the Entropy/Genesis hammers too. Archdiviner Hammer FTW. 😀 Scepter of the Highborn is awesome looking too. Finally, a scepter that actually looks like a scepter!
S3minol3

Light colored hammer is Genesis like Death said, I just found it and threw it up on TP. 🙂
- Deathdance
  
  Found where?!?! where?!?!?!?!!?!?!? at least a hint (i know some want to take the profit of it so many ppl dont tell this things…)
  - a-max
    
    He mentioned below that it dropped from Maw
Dulfy

Garrus Lachance

Disko Spyder

Kiba Shadowpaw

unnamed Warhorn – Song of the temptress :3
- Dulfy
  
  added ty
Leviathansub

Shiverstone I got from honor of the waves path 1, but i dont know where
- Akamon
  
  might it be safe to say we get ’em from sons of svanir champs? :DD
  thanks for the heads up! i reaaaally want that mace.
  - Leviathansub
    
    I rly dont know… I’m just certain that is there cuz my bag was empty before.
    - Akamon
      
      yea, no worries. i’ll keep us updated too if i get lucky. thanks regardless!
Akechi

Saw the “fellblade” on the TP for 200g listed as Lord Taeres’s Shadow, no ide where it drops from
Alilinke

Watchmaker163

Cobalt drops from Champion Ogres in the “Dispatch the Ogres” event in the Crown Pavilion.
Kiba Shadowpaw

Dulfy, possible new scepter skin, Combustion. idk if it is from this patch or not
- Four Foot Phantasm
  
  No, been in game.
  - Kiba Shadowpaw
    
    odd.. there is no record of it on the wiki and what not.. I know there is Combustion the torch.. this is combustion the scepter.
    - Dulfy
      
      This has identical graphics with the staff Emberspire, just a bit shorter heh. Technically this is a new skin for scepter. http://dulfy.net/2012/11/13/gw2-staff-skin-gallery/#15
      - Monkey Fritz
        
        Pretty much the same as Emberglow, too, only without the effect.
        http://dulfy.net/2012/12/28/gw2-scepter-skin-gallery/#14
        
        (They should have added a staff like Emberglow, not the other way around @_@)
      - HowellQ
        
        Funny thing is there is already a Combustion, it’s a torch. http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Combustion
    - Caleb Kirkendall
      
      im fairly certain you are correct and it is new.
    - Raketenralf
      
      This could mean that there are more champ skins that we dont know yet. Would be awesome!
DouBLe

Got an Occultist Flame from the Giant Branded Devourer in Fields of Ruin. I assume it drops from any Branded Strongbox.

according to a coulpe post(er)s on reddit, Entropy (purple Cultist hammer) can be dropped from Risen champs!
- Tribune Desertfang
  
  so the hammer is dropped the champ itself or the little boxes that drop with it
  - Akamon
    
    afaik, all the weapon skins should drop from the little boxes/bags, etc that you get from the champs.
    
    someone feel free to correct me if not the case!
Lyzran

Jason

I see the list of weapons and where they commonly drop… I was just wondering if this is only during this event or is this something that will keep going after the event. Im also wondering if these are champions found only in the “crown pavilion” or can they drop from champs in the rest of the world? Thanks !
- Dulfy
  
  Any champions in the world and it is a permanent change.

This weapons drop only from champions/bosses that are writen near weapon or can they drop from other ones to ? For example can King’s Rememberance drop from Risen Champion also ?

It would be nice if Dulfy would reply.
- Dulfy
  
  They can probably drop from other ones as well, just recording where people got them at this point, can make a generalized list later on when we have enough data.
Jose M.B

someone who drop cobalt,could say of where he got it, that champ?.
please answer
- Dulfy
  
  Cobalt drops off alot of different champions. It seems to be a shared drop rather than a skin off a single family of champions

Arc – Longbow dropped from Bandit in queens
Retarded Genius

The shell-like longbow is called “Arthropoda” and dropped from the giant ooze in metrica province
- Dulfy
  
  Huh, strange place for it to drop, would have thought Karka or something. Thanks for the info
  - Retarded Genius
    
    yeah i thought so, too^^
    - Retarded Genius
      
      heres a screenshot for more info – glad i could help
      - Frozyyn
        
        Is it possible we could get some ingame shots of it? Or even it in your inventory?
        
        I don’t mean to be rude, but I’m very skeptical of it dropping from a not-karka.
        
        Retarded Genius
        
        already sold it. and even if i took a screenshot of it in my inventory it would not prove that i got it from the ooze. seems like you will have to trust me 😉
        
        Frozyyn
        
        Fair enough.
        
        I didn’t actually realize how little Champ Oozes there were in the game, so it makes sense it took this long to find. Sorry for being “that guy.”

  Is that the orchard spider? I cant seem to find any other champion spider in queensdale
  - Dulfy
    
    Ya that is the spider SE of the hunting lodge where the champion boar spawns. There isn’t an event associated with the spider, just have to go to the spot and find it. Go to my champions guide and then scroll down to Queensdale and you will find a map of all champion locations. http://dulfy.net/2013/08/03/gw2-champions-guide/

From what I’ve gathered, weapons are based on bags, not enemies, so just gather information on what champs drop what bags, then focus on what bags drop what weapons.

I got Crystal Gaurdian from AC story dungeon, it must be the gilded strongboxes 🙂

Knowledge is power – droped on Arah P2 today. It seams that the droop for weapons is rootary or randomized.

Wintersun666

Crystal Guardian looks sick!
Giggos

Genesis seems to drop from a gilded strongbox off of the Frozen Maw. He drops an exotic strongbox the first time you kill him and then white ones every kill after that. However the exotic bag has a different icon than the bags of off icebrood champs, which have the same name. Something I think is odd.
- Akamon
  
  yea, there’ve been reports from others that certain bags with the same name don’t stack. so there might be a little more than just bag types to the loot tables.
- HowellQ
  
  Frozen Maw -> name of the place, Svanir Shaman -> name of the guy that drops the stuff. Srsly get it right.
Ares Zax

Anyone else think that the skin drops are linked to the item the Champion drops (e.g. Embroidered Coin Purse, Oversized Rucksack) rather than the race of the Champion itself? Maybe we should start tracking it via that method too.
- Dulfy
  
  It is but it is alot easier to get people to remember what champion they just killed rather than what loot bag just dropped. I am making a list of what champion people said they got the weapons from and also making rounds to kill the champions myself to see what bags they got. Then I can connect the dots.
  - jimmy the greek
    
    hey dulfy i got a entropy lemme know if u wanna take pictures of me

Song of the Temptress I got from Ascalon event in FotM, so it seems it’s not limited to AC dungeon. I’m sorry, but I didn’t pay attention to the name of the bag I got it from.

I got a stardust from bloomhunger in a level 38 fractal.
MassDelusion

What matters is what type of bag/box/etc it dropped from, not what boss.
- Dulfy
  
  Like I said, it is much easier for people to recall what boss they got it from rather than what bags. Once all the champion loot data have being gathered and verified, I can switch it to bags.

Is this going to be permanent or only for this update?

I can’t recall the name of the bag the guy dropped, but I think it was some Gearbox.
Plob

People the skins depend of the type of box and box type depends on type of champion… For instance many water champions say Ice wurm in Frostgorge drops Fallen Adventurer Backpack and so does Risen Scorpion in Cursed Shore. The Backpack had chance to drop Lord Taeres’s Shadow no matter where you got the backpack that contained it.

  :DD grats! i haven’t done Frozen Maw all that much. so it’s just the final champ that drops a box yes? and you got it from that one?
  also, can we only do Frozen maw once a day? i did it twice once and the second time, the end boss champ didn’t drop a box : (( i thought the limit would only be the chest?
  - Dulfy
    
    Hm as far as I know the boxes are not limited to once per day but it sometimes bugs and you don’t get a box 🙁
    - Akamon

hey dulfy do you know if champion level has influence on the chances of getting an item?

  I think higher level champions are more likely to drop exotic version of these boxes which have a high chance to give you the exotic weapons.

    alright, thanks for the fast reply cheers
