The second part of the Return to Dry Top achievement in Guild Wars 2 is much the same as the first. Players looking to craft their Legendary Trinket, the Prismatic Champion’s Regalia, will need to complete both sets of this achievement to obtain the Legendary amulet. The Dry Top map, while older than other maps, still has a lot of players who farm loot and achievements on its dusty surface, which makes farming your necessary events much easier than you think. In this guide, what you’ll need to complete in order to finish Return to Dry Top 2 will be explained, as well as where to find some of the more hidden items.

Once you have completed the Story quests, you will need to complete and obtain certain items across the map. Dry Top is not a large map, but several layers make it tricky to navigate, which can be made easier by using Gliding or a Mount if you have those unlocked. Alternatively, you can run on foot and use the Waypoints to get around.

For this achievement, you will have to complete 10 events in Dry Top. These events can be anywhere on the map. Roam around the map as a solo or find a Commander or Mentor and follow them to find active events. Usually, there will be at least one Commander or Mentor, and if you’re uncertain, you can ask in map chat. Alternatively, the LFG system will usually have some parties or squads you can join.

Return to Dry Top 2: Reconquer the Crash Site Climb
Climb the wreckage site to reach the highest peak in Prospect Valley. This is the Jumping Puzzle on Dry Top, and as it is a jumping puzzle, you won’t be able to use a Mount. What you can use, if you struggle, is a friendly Mesmer Portal, meaning that it’s always good to have a pocket Mesmer friend with great coordination.
