Boogiepop Void.6473 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 You can get recipes for the boots, gloves, and shoulders from Elisa, but where do you get the rest? I haven't found anywhere to get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRuin.9740 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Looks like WvW or PvP tracks is the only option at the moment : https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Bounty_Hunter%27s_armor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mewcifer.5198 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Pretty sure I got the recipe for the legs when doing bounties last week. Edit: might have been the chest piece... Edit 2: nevermind, it might have been a recipe for warbeast armour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malediktus.9250 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 PvP / WvW reward tracks are the easiest and cheapest way to get bounty hunter and warbeast armor. Another case of reward tracks making content obsolete, Anet will never learn it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webtoehobbit.4201 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Maybe I am missing something, but it seems like ANet forgot to put the helm, chest and boot armor pieces into PvE in PoF. Elisa sells the recipes for shoulders, gloves and legs, but nothing else. From all the research I have done regarding this all I can deduce is that you have to PvP for those three that seem to be absent from PvE. Was this intentional because as far as I can tell, PvP has always been the alternative way of obtaining armor, so that those who don't want PvE can still obtain the skins from it. To have to grind out the desert reward track 9 times to unlock all the skins seems a bit excessive and a bit of an oversight from ANet. But maybe I am wrong and there are ways to obtain these pieces in PvE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way I understand it is that the Bounty Hunter armor is kind of an RNG deal, vendors will only have a few pieces available at a time and what pieces are available is randomly generated. So if you want each piece you have to revisit the vendor daily and hope they have the one you're looking for on that given day. Sorry if I'm way off base on this, I haven't attempted to unlock these sets myself so I'm not completely certain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prior Historian Elisa only sells recipes for Gloves, Leggings, and Shoulders. There is currently no known method to obtain the other three pieces.

Moonlit.6421 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Yah the only way to get the other 3 pieces it seems is either through the WvW or PvP reward tracks. I know its less than optimal for a lot of people buts thats it for now so I guess either run a few matches or do some quick dailies in wvw and you'll eventually have enough.

Zaklex.6308 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 You can get the crafting recipes for the other items as drops in PvE(or from those hidden chests), I got one as a drop just the other day...well, not the actual armor piece but a recipe to craft the armor piece...only I don't remember which one because I already consumed it and probably won't make it...as a matter of fact I have two recipes(the second came from a chest, just don't remember which kind[i.e. Dwarven, etc., etc.,) and I didn't buy any from Elisa.

Are you certain you didn't pick up the Warbeast armor recipe instead? Those will drop from Bounties and chests, but not Bounty Hunter armor recipes, ironically enough.

Alga.6498 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Does anyone know how to unlock _'Bounty Hunter's armor'_ ? You can buy gloves, leggings, and shoulders recipes from Priory Historian Elisa. But how or where do you get chest, boots and headgear from? :confused: I asked a few friends but they said the armor parts can be obtain from PvP and WvW..... why the hell should you be forced to play anything but a different mode than the actual PvE to purchase an armor from an expansion? It makes no sense! :angry: ANet, not all of us are into PvP or WvW..... :rage: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmirkDog.3160 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 It really doesn't make sense to have some pieces of an armour set be obtainable in different game modes. I can see how some sets can fully only be obtained in PvP or WvW (like the Triumphant Hero stuff), but not random pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReV.6097 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Pretty crappy idea separating the pieces in this way. Although I'd do WvW if the armor was what I was after. Never the less, I disapprove of how they implemented this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole set is obtainable on PoF maps, besides lucky drops from bounties themselves, they can also drop from the chests of the traveler, which can be bought from elisa for 50 contracts, karma and sand.

Kiza.5630 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 > @Wanze.8410 said: > The whole set is obtainable on PoF maps, besides lucky drops from bounties themselves Sure the recipes drop from bounties? I've never seen them, only Warbeast's recipes. OT, I would've guessed that they are part of the rotation of the recipes Elisa sells. But if she really only sells 3/6... why?

Alga.6498 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 That is indeed plain stupid if Priory Elisa sells 3 out of 6 parts of a set instead they are "super rare drops from bounties". You _maybe_ get a chance to get a drop of these fine recp. which is absolutely shitty. Oh yeah right. What an awesome idea! :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What an awesome idea! :angry: There are a lot of sets in the game that are associated with rare drops and taking a while. The Wiki is missing a lot of things, but you do have to give it credit for trying and succeeding mostly ? Also, it's about 24 hours of play for 3 pieces to get it in WvW if no boosts (?) I wouldn't say that's "easy". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiza.5630 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 From the patch notes: Priory Researcher Elisa now has new recipes available Maybe that are the missing ones ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taniniver BlindDragon.9503 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 If any anet employees read this thread, please could we get confirmation if Priory Historian Elisa not offering the other recipes is by design, or a bug that will be fixed? I'd prefer not to have to complete nine reward tracks to finish the collection, then later find it was a bug. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikal.4921 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I have been visiting Elisa since the patch, and she has still only been selling the three recipes she's always sold. And the only recipes I've been seeing from bounties is Warbeast. So, we still don't have access to the other three recipes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonlit.6421 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 > @Alga.6498 said: > ... > It makes no sense! :angry: > > ANet, not all of us are into PvP or WvW..... :rage: Lol while I do agree with the majority of people on this thread and think there should be a way for people to get the other 3 recipes in pve, this comment portion stuck out to me a little. You realize just as many players are not into WvW/PvP many of us aren't into PvE either. I personally enjoy the lore and the story but plenty of stuff I don't like, yet I love fashion so many times I have to go to pve and complete stuff I'd rather not do in order to get armor than I want whether this be doing the Shatterer achievements for the backpiece or more recently all the collections for Funerary armor/weapons. At least in WvW you could do dailies like cap a sentry, take a camp, or even spend a few badges every night and your done so you could easily complete it over time with patience. I can't just be patient and do 1-2 easy activities in pve though to get the majority of the armor locked behind it. So while I support the issue of missing recipes, let's keep the other side in mind to for future reference. ;3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
