Do you when? (Like, what time and day, and what time zone?)

 

Thank you!

Ah good to know. Have not been to drytop much. Bit of a snore fest there. ?

300 geodes is an option from the [Tyrian Exchange Voucher](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Tyrian_Exchange_Voucher).

That's how I did it.

Me too ?

[Daddicus.6128]

Artemis and Mewcifer, I think I'm going down that path partway. I have 27 regulars I run, but only 16 of those are level 80 (so far). Of those, 11 more need to finish mapping it, so that's 1100 right there. By the time I get through those, I'll probably have enough geodes from farming WvW to push me over the top.

 

All good ideas above, folks! Thank you all very much!

[Daddicus.6128]

Update: I'm almost to 4000 geodes now, but still haven't found a tier 6. So, I'm going to work for a t5 and just waste the other 600.

 

Thanks for all the help!

Awesome! That's the best map completion ever! Gratz on getting those completed.

Chest farms and the meta event in Silverwastes give a fair amount of geodes as well via silky sand

[Ayakaru.6583]

I found the clubber in the top right of the old crossroad a good sources of geodes.

In the fungal wastes theres also a respawning rampaging shroom.

You can also look for more seals to trade for geodes, but each subsequent seal becomes worth a little less.

If you're sure about your abilities you can also carry Fragile Greed into the depths

If anyone doesn't know, look in the LFG system for a "RIBA" group in the SilverWastes. Those are the events organized to maximize your reward rate, and will give goodly amounts of sand, plus all the other rewards.
