Unlocking the Fractal Legendary Backpack in Guild Wars 2 is no easy feat, but it can be done without spending any real money on microtransactions. In this guide, we'll take you through the steps to unlock the backpack, starting with the time gate grind.

• Step 1: Time Gate Grind
• Step 2: Talk to Kelvei
• Step 3: Fill out the Collection
• Step 4: Grind for the Remaining Items
• Step 5: Combine Items

Step 1: Time Gate Grind

To begin, you'll need to have completed a significant portion of the time gate grind, which includes doing challenge modes, daily recommended fractals, and collecting Fractal Research Pages. You'll also need 2,500 Relics and 22 Pristine Relics, which can easily be obtained by doing fractals.

Step 2: Talk to Kelvei

Next, you'll need to talk to Kelvei, an NPC in the Fractals of the Mists. He will unlock the collection, after which you'll need to buy the Legendary Backpack with 600 gold.

Step 3: Fill out the Collection

Once you have the Legendary Backpack, you'll need to complete the collection by farming a bit of  Guild Wars 2 Gold, completing daily achievements, and collecting Mystic Clovers.

Step 4: Grind for the Remaining Items

After completing the collection, you'll need to grind for the remaining items for the backpack. This includes completing a journal exchange for an Escalonian Research Paper, completing daily recommended fractals, buying something with Pristines, completing the Jade Maw in less than five minutes, and completing the Swamp, Aquatic, and Volcanic Challenge Modes.

Step 5: Combine Items

Finally, you'll need to head to the Urban Battleground Fractal and hand in the journal to the Escalonian Field Researcher. He will then give you a Gigantic Elemental Core, which you can combine with Magical Fissure in Bloom, Hunger's Domain, and four Agony to craft the Fractal Legendary Backpack.

With the Fractal Legendary Backpack in hand, you can equip an infinite number of backpacks for all of your characters. If you're looking for a build to use while grinding, we'd recommend the Reaper's Tag, a Giga Chad build that can carry hard.

It's important to note that unlocking the Fractal Legendary Backpack requires a significant amount of time and effort. However, if you're willing to put in the work, the rewards are well worth it.
