Acquiring Dusk/Dawn of rage for less than 20g +MF80% required

[momodari]

Hi there, while I warn you this requires luck, like MOST things in an MMO...

Alright, here is my way or guide how I made 3 Dusks and 1 Dawn so far, I didn't try getting other Exotics since at the time I was only interested in these two.

1) Mystic forge method. Yield 2 Dusks 1 Dawn so far. 28 Exotics used, total price ~85g, Total Profit AS of today's pricing 340g-85g = 255g (120g ea Dusk 100g Dawn)

-Alright so I scanned the market for the most available cheapest exotic Greatsword that has the same stats as these 2, My result for the most beneficial Exotic used was Berserker's Pearl broadsword Which currently goes for 4x4g each 16g total.

- Next while acquiring 4 Berserker's Pearl broadsword, you eat your MF buffs, at the time I had +100%MF.

- Went ahead and clicked Forge, and Saw Dusk at the right part of the screen.

PS: So far the best item I found for getting Dusk/Dawn were the Berserker's Pearl broadsword.

2) Taking of temples, Event chests at the end. Yield 1 Dusk at Temple of Grenth with the zerg. Current MF89%

- This one is pretty straightforward, while in Cursed Shore, in /map chat, get to see which of the 2 temples (Temple of Grenth, Temple of Melandru) people are doing.

- Make sure to Always have MF% gear, since anyone who I spoke to, that got a Dusk/Dawn drop, had atleast 80%MF.

Heard Arah dungeon might drop at the chests, but I have no experience with that.

NOW you might say I just won the lottery or call BS on me, but there are 2 facts in the above listed,

1- I have the odds on my side, always go with MF% armors + food.
2- Pearl broadswords are the cheapest lvl80 exotics with the same stats, and yielded Mind Boggling results for me.

Please let me know what you think, leave a comment or a question, I will be happy to help.

Your methods to increase your chances are solid, unfortunately you did exactly what you claim to have not: won the lottery.

Though your suggestions for creating pre-legendary items is useful for those who had not thought of this.

Everyone already knows that they can come from lvl 80 zone chests and 4x exotic greatswords in the mystic forge. It doesn't matter what 4 weapons you throw in as long as they are the same type (greatswords in this case).

I obtained a Dusk and Dawn by using random exotics I obtained from the Norn exploit (which of course I had to delete... ). It's just random.

I heard Dawn and Dusk is based on the timing as well Mystic forge Wise

Sorry but you just got lucky....


210% magic find here..... Did the events 100 times nothing.
Tryed 4 Beserker Exotics 3 times now no dusk / dawn.


As people said you just got lucky....

[Gbyrd]

yep, you`re better off trying rares, either way its a 20% chance to upgrade to that tier. 80s and best case you can sell the exotic for 2-5g, but losing 4 exotics to one is a massive loss

I've seen this posted on a few websites now. He's just trying to sell off his shit.

[momodari]

Just explain how you get 210 mf cause its totaly impossible

Just explain how you get 210 mf cause its totaly impossible

6 pieces of MF armor: 18%
5 piece set of augs + 1 piece aug (50+10) in armor: 60%
Weapon Set (2x 3%) plus augs (15% mh, 4%oh): 25%
Jewelry Set: 35% (iirc)
Backpack: 4%
Food: 40%
MF Booster: 50%
Guild Banner: 10%
Guild 3 day bonus: 15%
WvW Bonus: ?

Assuming no stacking issues, that's over 250% right there. 210 is easy

:edit: Didn't see the post above mine when I did this.

Doesn't full MF gear + 5/1 Runes + Sigil + Accessories + MF food + TP MF buff come out to 210% MF? Pretty sure I read several places it does, but it's much less without the magic find booster which is 50%.

So gear layout I believe is 36% (39% with 2x 1H weapons)
Than 50% + 10% = 60% (5 pirate + 1 traveler rune)
Than .6 x 25 = 15% from the weapon sigil (superior luck)
Than 15% from the opal crystals in the accessories.
And lastly 30% from food.

So with the booster which is another 50% that's TOTAL OF 209% MF if I did my math correctly! Didn't even add the backpack / guild banner / etc like the poster did above me!

and if it's not correct :P Well than sorry!

[agracul]

can anyone actually try somthing excactly what he sead: items which have "the same stats as these 2"

[Garricus]

The OP is just trying to sell his crafted weapons by getting you guys to buy them in attempt to get Dusk.

MF afaik doesn't affect forge or chest, just superstition that it does. There is a dev post somewhere stating it only affects loot that is dropped by mobs.

I got my dusk by buying lvl 76-80 greatswords for around 15s each, and on my 3rd attempt I got super LUCKY and got a dusk.

I'd say that I tried at least 20 attempts total (was going for more dusks/dawns) and only got 1, but I did get at least 9 other exotics out of it. I basically broke even with what I spent, by selling off the other exotics I got.

It is all LUCK and nothing else. I wouldn't recommend doing what I did unless you are willing to lose gold, it is just like gambling. Hope this helps some of you from buying exotics and trying to get dusk.

Edit: The greatswords I used ranged from lvl 76-80 and all had different stats, having same stats as Dusk does nothing. I think I got my dusk from swords that had condition damage.

This is almost like a scam to buy that guy greatsword. MF only affects drop from mobs nothing else.
