GW2 Mad Maleficence Collection guide. This collection was added with the Halloween 2018 update.

Getting Started

To unlock this collection, first go to Veteran Brigadier General Kernel in Lion’s Arch Fort Marriner area. Make sure you have done Long Live the Lich living world episode (Season 4, episode 3). Talk to him about Joko to unlock the collection.

Mad Maleficence

Joko’s Crown (Replica) – Crystal Oasis

Purchase it from an Awakened Merchant just outside the Casino in Crystal Oasis for 1 Candy Corn Cob.

Awakened Officer’s Service Medallion

You can get this item from Palawan Phylactery bags which drop off any Awakened Champions. The best place for Awakened champions is usually the Domain of Istan meta – Great Hall/Palawadan.

Mummy Wrap Field Kit

Go to any of the Crystal Desert maps (i.e. Crystal Oasis/Deserrt Highlands etc) and start using those Treasure Hunting Kits you have in your inventory from doing events/looting chests. Using the special action key to locate these Buried Treasures and open them up to receive the kit. Don’t forget that these kits will highlight the area on the map you will need to search.

Ancient Awakened Soldier’s Ring – Mad King’s Labyrinth

Found in Lost Belongs just SW of the NW waypoint in Mad King’s Labyrinth. This one is tricky because Mad King loves to teleport you when you get near that place so it is to fly really fast to it using griffon from the waypoint and just click F as fast as possible on the item.

Draft of a Love Letter (Page 2) – Mad King’s Labyrinth

SE corner of the Labyrinth. Easiest to just griffon from the NE waypoint.
