GW2 In-Game Gift Ideas

Whether it’s Wintersday or any other festive occasion, many Guild Wars 2 players celebrate by giving and receiving in-game gifts. Even though it’s quick and easy to send someone gold in the mail, we think it’s more fun to pick out specific items as gifts. We’ve put together a list of gift ideas to get you started this holiday season. Here is our list of Guild Wars 2 gift ideas that can be purchased with in-game gold and sent to other players.

Exotic Weapons

There are many unique exotic weapons to choose from when looking for potential gifts. “Named” exotics are weapons that have a unique title and skin, compared to regular exotics that have common names (e.g. “Berserker’s Pearl Reaver”). A complete list of unique exotic weapons is maintained on the GW2 Wiki’s “List of Named Weapons” page.
