June 2nd Update

Stay up to date with the key highlights and essential patch notes from the June 2nd Update

Dragon Bash

The Dragon Bash festival has officially returned and will run until June 21st! All our favorite activities are back, and some new rewards to earn. Most notably, the new Icebone weapon set is a standout, featuring a striking, icy Jormag-inspired aesthetic

This year’s annual reward is the Bear-Blessed Visage [&Crs2AAA=] making you appear to be a Kodan. It’s similar to the Raven-Blessed Visage [&CggzAAA=] reward last year, in that it is a roundabout way of making you look like a new race. Last year’s rewards can be purchased from the event merchant

Friend of Dragons next backpack for the collection is also available to continue the collection, Plush Primo Backpack.

Other New Rewards:

  • Mini Papillon

  • Cooking Recipe: Elder Draco-Pop

  • Homestead Decorations: Bear Totem, Snow Leopard Totem, Raven Totem, Wolf Totem, and Plush Primo

Summer Game Fest

A buff that has rewards across all play-types will continue through June 21st. Buffs include +50% Magic Find, +50% Experience From All Sources, +30% WvW & PvP Reward Track progress.

Check out our Summer Game Fest Guide for how to earn the special shoulders & backpiece skins from the event!
