Want to know how to complete the "A Henge Away From Home" achievement in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Guild Wars 2? Earn a sweet-looking, nature-themed ascended backpiece? You've come to the right place!
The Henge Away From Home achievement is the culmination of a series of collections that starts with The Druid Stone collection. You unlock this achievement upon completion of Living World Season 3, Episode 5, the final mission in this episode that awards you with a Volcano's Heart. Consuming this item begins the first collection (the first collections are fairly straightforward). This guide will focus on the final collection needed for the ascended backpiece.
Step 1 - Gathering What You'll Need
It'll be much faster for you if you start gathering together some of the items you need to complete this achievement. The following is what you'l need:
A Blooming Druid Stone |
Obtained by completing the pr🍃evious colle🀅ction "Sprouting the Druid Stone." |
30 Druid Runestone Fragments |
You get these by combining 5 Druid Runestone Fragments. It'll take you seven days to complete this because you can only get four each day from the Draconis Mons Heart vendors, and one from the unbound magic vendor. You need a total of 7 Druid Runestones |
40 Fire Orchids and 15 Fire Orchid Seeds |
You get these from Primord꧂ial Orchids, which act as some wood gathering nodes in Dracon💝is Mons, you can spot them on your mini-map. |
5 of each Lodestone |
That's Onyx, Glacial, Charged, and Molten. You'll either already have these in your material storage, or you can get them off the Trading Post. |
Obtain a Houndskin Mantle |
You can get this by completing 20 Flashpoint achievementཧs (the Living World Story ep🐷isode that involves Draconis Mons). |
A Vision Crystal |
You can either craft these or buy them off the Tradinಌg Post⛄. |
Element of Ignis |
You get this from defeating the Destroyer Ignis ꦉin Draconis Mons (it spawns at the Seething Pillar point of interest). |
Element of Aestus |
You get this from defeating the Destroyer Aestus (spawns at the Fro🃏thing Pedestal point of interest). |
Element of the Desecrator |
You get this from defeating a Champion Destroyer Desecrator, which has multiple spawns around the map, especially near the Titan's Throat point of interest. |
Element of Fire |
Dropped by any Fire Elemental. |
Element of Earth |
Dropped by any Earth Elemental. |
Element of Water |
Dropped by any Ice Elemental. |
Element of Air |

That's it for the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:list of materials - be aware that you can't gather some of these until you've started the Hedge Away From Home collection.
Step 2 - Bouquets For Druids
The next step involves bringing th൩ree "bouquets" to the different Maguuma Druid💦 Spirits within Draconis Mons.
A Frozen Bouquet For Liriodendron
Liriodendron is at the Peace Grounds point of interest (if you've done the previous collections you'll be familiar with their locations). Give him the following:
- Five Glacial Lodestones
- Ten Fire Orchids
An Earthen Bouquet For Broadleaf
The picture above shows the location of Broadleaf and how to get to him (but if you have a ༺Springer or Skyscale then it should 🍎be no issue at all getting to him). Give him the following items:
- Five Onyx Lodestones
- Ten Fire Orchids
An Infernal Bouquet For Rosewood
Rosewood is very easy to find, she is slightly north and just above the Ancient Hollow waypoint, there's a bouncy mushroom just to the north of it - or you can use a Springer or Skyscale to reach her location. Give her the following items:
- Five Molten Lodesteones
- Ten Fire Orchids
Step 3 - Spread Seeds
Now it's time to take those Fire Orchid seeds you gathered and plant them in different areas across Tyria. Why? Because the druids said so, silly!
The picture above shows you the locations for the first garden - you'll be entering the Hidden Garden in Mount Maelstrom. You won't be doing the jumping puzzle, just search around on the first floor for some fertile soil, there's a patch of tilled earth with plants coming out - plant three seeds in the soil.
Maguuma's Orchard
Head to Dry Top in the location pictured above, you'll find a small patch of fertile ground with which you can plant three of the Fire Orchid seeds.
Melandru's Orchard
Head to the Cursed Shore in Orr - either head to the waypoint directly or one of the waypoints to the south and head north. Go up the stairs near the Cathedral of Verdance Hero Point, the fertile soil is very close by.
Seaside Propagation
Head to the Ancient Hollow waypoint and glide down east to the boiling sea, the soil is right at the bottom of the island in front of you.
Ancient Hollow Propagation
The next planting spot is very close by - go back to the Ancient Hollow waypoint and keep going to the top, this is easy to do on a Springer or Skyscale, search for the Scalding Gorge, and then look for where the cave opens out. The soil patch will be easy to spot.
Wind Rider Ledge Propagation
From your position either glide or use a Skyscale to another ledge a short bit to the southwest, the ledge will be below you. There's an Oakheart Essence right next to it.
Nu II Propagation
Teleport to the Heathen's Hold waypoint and then take the nearest Thermal Tube, it'll catapult you near the top of the volcano and near another thermal tube, this will launch you towards the Nu II Vault point of interest (or use your Skyscale and just head to that point of interest). Enter the vault, keep to the left, and you'll find the patch of soil.
Two handy tips here - Firstly, open your settings and find an option to enable object names to be displayed, this makes the patches of soil much easier to find (if you're colorblind it might be a necessity).
Secondly, if you've not got a Skyscale yet, get yourself one as soon as you can. 🅠While this might be trickier for newer players, the Skyscale mount is one of the best long-term investments you can make, and it make꧅s map navigation a hundred times easier.
Rata Arcanum Propagation
Leave the vault and ascend the ledges nearby, you can use either the Oakheart Essence or a mount to get up there. Head towards the Asura Gate point of interest and then keep going west, you'll find a small cave with the soil at the back.
Seaside Ledge Propagation
Go to the Heathen's Hold waypoint and head west down to the boiling sea, either glide or use 💜a mount, and head to the lowest level ledge and not the island. Keep to the right, the patch of soil is behind a large rock.
Final Steps
A Storm Bouquet For Kodama
Head back to the Heathen's Hold waypoint go west and drop until you see a cave opening (she is located in a point of interest called Druid's Grotto). She'll be right at the back of this cave, don't be discouraged if it takes you a few minutes or so to see the cave opening.
Give her the following items:
- Five Charged Lodestones
- Ten Fire Orchids
Elemental Runestones
Finally - remember those rune fragments that you collected over seven days? You'll need to combine your 30 Runestone Fragments into seven Druid Runestones. After you've done that combine them with the different elements. You'll have a grand total of seven Elemental Runestones if you collected everything. Hand these combined Runestones into Kodama.
Congratulations! You're done!
