Tomorrow you’ll be able to craft Zhaitan-inspired legendary weapon skins in Guild Wars 2

From tomorrow in Guild Wars 2you can start creating the first set of Elder Dragon variant skins for your Aurene-based legendary weapons once you’ve unlocked them end of the dragons. The first set will be craftable and the second chapter of Living World Season 1, Sky Pirates, will also go live.

The first set of available weapon skins you can craft is based on the elder dragon Zhaitan, who led a horrific destruction and corruption across Tyria. Known as the Dragon of Death and Shadow, Zhaitan raised the nation of Orr and led undead minions and corrupt factions that left destruction behind.

Now you can commemorate this destructive force in Tyria’s history with weapon skins. Once you’ve bound one of the Aurene-based Legendary Weapons in your Armory, you’ll begin a process where I’ll show you the steps needed to create the weapon skins. You will receive a letter with directions and an opportunity to unlock an achievement. This achievement is part of a brand new meta-achievement.

Your tasks will include starting the Aurene’s Facet of Shadows collection, which you can build on later. Once you complete all the tasks, you can get a Legendary Weapon Skin for each of the Aurene-based Legendary Weapons that you have tied to your account. There are 16 skins available. So if you’re willing to complete the collection and collect all 16, you’ll get a new title, a facet of shadow and death.

If Zhaitan isn’t your thing, there’s good news. Legendary weapon variant skins based on the other Elder Dragons will be available in the future.
