400g for fashion wars. Halp

[Tea.2740]

I know it's not too much for fashion wars but what kind of interesting items is there at this price point and lower? I want auras/effects/trails/glows but I'm pretty sure most of that is legendaries/expensive. Please recommend anything and possibly a link to their effects and price :) (no specific criteria)

Here you can find all the infusions ( guess there's the name "infusion" on every single avaible from tp, but i am not sure ).

you more likely will not find any of that unless your Rng is very very lucky. BUT there is this website, gw2style.com/index.php it could help you get a general feel of fashion war

There are countless of items which create visual effects and are yet far away from being expensive.

Trail effects:

• Peacemaker Weapons: They create purple light-balls which remain at your location for short. Those can be purchased for small ammounts of karma at Rata Sum, from the cultural weapon vendors.
• Chalice of the Gods: This is a focus, easily obtained from the heart-vendor Lakor Grizzlemouth in Butcher's Block (Meatoberfest) in Diessa Plateau. It just costs 336 Karma. It does create an impressive fog-trail behind you, which remains for a short time.
• Shiverpeak Talisman: Another focus skin which can be bought for very less money on TP. Most players have it already. It creates a trail of glowing yellow light behind you. Similar to the Chalice.
• Steam Gizmo: A focus with a blue and intense light trail. Cheap versions can be found on TP for a few silvers.

Glow effects:

• Dark Asuran weapons: Those have a red glow and a futuristic appearance. They can be aquired in Lion's Arch at the Dungeon Armor and Weapons at Fort Marriner. Those require tokens from the Sorrow's Embrace Dungeon.
• Glyphic weapons: Similar to the Dark Asuran Weapons but with blue/white glow. Suit well to futuristic characer designs and are easily purchasable on TP.
• Modniir weapons: Especially the Staff/Trident, Scepter and Focus are pretty shiny and create a special light aura. Easily aquired from Karma vendors in the Harathi Hinterlands.
• Auric weapons: Those are mostly craft only, can be obtained for completing a certain chapter in the Heart of Thorns story as well. Compared to the fancy skins, still cheap(er) to obtain. They look enchanted with a green glow and suit imho pretty well with a few glow-outfits if dyed correctly.
• Mystic weapons: Those are craft only and quite expensive ones. They eat Mystic Coins and an Eldrich Scroll. The weapons have a blue appearance and some of them create random sparks/lightnings.
• Inquest weapons: Same as Mystic weapons, but in red and purchasable also from the Dungeon Armor and Weapons at Fort Marriner in Lion's Arch for Crucible of Eternity Dungeon tokens.
• Whisper's Secret Staf: An easy staff with a yellow light on top. If you are already a member of the Order of Whispers, you can purchase it at HQ for 5g. Or you decide to join the Order of Whispers during the personal story, which results with a selectable Order of Whisper's weapon at the end of the level 30 quest - that would be free.

Aura effects:

• Leystone armor: Those can be obtained in the Dragon's Stand map. Do the meta-event and you get them one by one. Especially gloves & shoulders create a visible aura-effect while suiting to many different armor styles, with the correct coloring.

I am pretty sure I forgot a lot of stuff. That is all I remember atm. Real auras are sort of difficult/expensive to aquire. If it would be easy, it would not be special anymore.

Great post HnR!

Considering the fact that I literally grind TD Meta since forever and have not gotten an egg sac. Fashion wars is really expensive and time consuming.

MountsWhile none of the legendary weapons seem to affect mounts in terms of footprints, the above listed trail effects also work when mounted.

The Chalice of Gods causes a very long trail, while the Steam Gizmo causes a shorter but more intense blue trail. Peacemaker Weapons and the Shiverpeaks Talisman's effects can also be seen while riding a mount. But they are barely noticable as a trail, more like an aura-effect (when moving).
