How to get the Mistforged Glorious Hero’s Legendary Armor in Guild Wars 2

PvP isn't just about fighting anymore.

There are three types of Legendary Armor types that players can access in the games, based on the three types of end-game content that players are interested in. For the PvP community, the easiest to obtain would be the Mistforged Glorious Hero’s Armor, obtainable only by completing PvP events and tiers. Like with all Legendary items, this armor’s stats can be changed as needed. Legendary armor also doesn’t require Transmutation Charges to alter the appearance of the gear, making Fashion Wars much easier.
