Guild Wars 2 Crafting Material Locations

Unlike many others MMORPGs, you will be able to collect gatherables in Guild Wars 2 as soon as you start your journey. GW2 gathering skills are not specific to your profession. You can gather whatever you like if you have appropriate tools. Beside getting materials, you will also get a small amount of exp for every collected item. Be advised that you can fail at gathering if your tools are low level. You can’t steal mining nodes or trees from anyone since they all have separate spawns for each person.
 
Below you will find a list of the gatherables in Tyria with links to maps that show the spawn locations.

  1. Rich Gold Vein in Dredgehaunt Cliffs in the north west most part of the map. Right behind Leopard’s Snarl Shrine.

      • There is one in Blazeridge Steppes on the upper left part of the map somewhere can’t remember exactly where, but it’s the best place to get gold from what I have seen.

  2. Awesome list!! Vanilla Beans have been removed from Karma vendors and it would be wonderful to have them added to the list.

        • I am also finding them in starter sylvari area (from herb bushes). I have noticed in last few days seemingly more drops – I wonder if AN increased the drop-rate as they used to be very uncommon?

  3. Great list, really helpful. Thank you for that.
    imho, it would be much more helpful to add a new column with information, what gathering tool quality you need (at least copper, iron, steel etc.)

  4. Can anyone tell me where to find lots of Chocolate Bars? I know you get them from loot bags…but which area? I tried pirates, bandits, centaurs and no chocolate bars. Thanks.

    • Straits of Devastation near Plinth Timberland area. Have never found it anywhere else. Suggest you start your own garden in your home instance.

  5. Do you know where to find a Glob of Ectoplasm, or ingredient from which then you call him didn’t have to buy.

    • Bump.
      A separate list for looted materials and mobs/areas that drop them would be useful.
      (It may exist i just haven’t found it)

    • South of Desider Atum building high on a ledge reached by floating stones.

    • There is a vendor named Apple Jack in Cornucopian Fields (Gendarran Fields). He selling them for 16 coin each. 🙂

  6. Strawberries are also available from Snowden Drifts along southern border.
