GW2. A complete guide on how to get your Legendary Runes and Sigils. Legendary Runes and Sigils Crafting Guide. Guild Wars 2.

Getting started

---

The Legendary Runes and Sigils allow you to choose the properties of any Superior Rune or Sigil in the game, this way you can easily swap between them anytime you are out of combat. Additionally, you can use the Legendary Runes and Sigils on all of your characters and builds simultaneously due to the legendary armory system. Another property of the Legendary Runes and Sigils is that you can use them in gear of any type of rarity that has an upgrade slot and can be removed without using an upgrade extractor.

This guide includes the entire process and all the information you will need to craft your Legendary Runes and Sigils.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The process described on this guide (Step 1 to 4) is to make ONE piece (1 rune or 1 sigil), you will need to repeat the process a total of SIX times for each rune, and FOUR times for each sigil. Except you want more for underwater as well.

Obsidian Shards

A total of 50 are required to craft a Legendary Rune and 75 for a Legendary Sigil. There are many ways to obtain these. Here I leave you a few great options:

Buying them at the Temple of Balthazar near the Rally Waypoint – [&BNIEAAA=]. They cost 2100 Karma each. You can also get Obsidian Shards from WvW/PvP reward tracks.

Another way is to buy them in exchange of Unbound Magic from the merchant close to the Sorrow’s Eclipse Waypoint – [&BH0JAAA=] for 100 Unbound Magic. One of the fastest ways to get Unbound Magic is by gathering in the Bitterfrost Frontier and consuming them.

Step 2: Gift of Craftsmanship

The Gift of Craftsmanship is sold by Faction Provisioners in exchange of 50 Provisioner Tokens. To get 50 Provisioner Tokens can take you several days depending on your resources. If you need to know how to get them, check the Provisioner Token Guide.

Their recipes are obtained from any Mystic Forge Attendant for 10 Gold each. If you have the Secrets of the Obscure expansion you will have access to an NPC called Lyhr.
