If you're looking to farm Tier 5 and 6 Blood in Guild Wars 2 for profit or to craft legendary items, you've come to the right place. In this guide, we'll walk you through a highly efficient farming location for Vials of Blood, along with some tips and tricks to maximize your gains. Let's get started!

Farming Location: Vials of Blood
Location: Derelict Elf Waypoint
Goals Per Hour: Around 18 gold (or more) per hour

Materials: Tier 5 Blood, Tier 6 Blood
Getting to the Farming Location
1. Start at the Derelict Elf Waypoint, which is well-known for Tier 5 and 6 Venom farming.
2. Exit the waypoint on the north side and head west. You'll encounter numerous Minotaurs in this area, which will be your primary targets.
3. Along the way, be sure to take out packs of Alpine Stalkers. This will not only yield valuable extracts and experience but also Tier 5 and 6 Claws.
4. There are two routes you can follow in this location. In the footage, a smaller circle is shown, but you can extend it by going back and forth through the passage you came from. The key is to maintain a fast pace and kill as many enemies as possible in each session.
5. Keep track of diminishing returns. If you're farming for an extended period or maintaining a high pace, be aware of when diminishing returns kick in. When they do, it's time to change to a new location for about half an hour to let the diminishing returns reset.

For more information on diminishing returns and how to prepare your character for farming, check out our previous video on these subjects.

Tips and Tricks
Here are some additional tips to enhance your farming experience:
1. Ascended Amulet: If you have an ascended amulet, consider buying a Magical Enrichment for an extra 20% magic find. These enrichments cost 20 Laurels and can be purchased from a Laurel vendor in one of the main hubs. You can also earn Laurels through the Wizard's Folly or weekly chests.
2. Use Scavenger Protocols: Slot either a Might Trophy or Magic Trophy Scavenger Protocol into your Jadebot. These protocols yield about the same amount of profit, so choose the one you need the most or have readily available.
3. Material Conversion: Depending on your objectives, you may want to convert materials. For a Gift of Blood (for Generation 2 or 3 weapons or legendary armors, runes, or sigils), the natural drop ratio of Tier 5 and 6 Blood should suffice. However, if you're aiming for a Gift of Magic, you can use the Mystic Forge to convert materials. Combine one Tier 6 Blood, 50 Tier 5 Blood, 5 Flasks of Crystalline Dust, and some Philosopher's Stones in the Mystic Forge. This will yield an average of 7 extra Tier 6 Bloods and about 19 silver of profit per conversion.
4. Fast Farming Website: Keep an eye on the Fast Farming website's material promotion page for price and circumstance updates, as these may change over time.

Conclusion
In this guide, we've covered a highly efficient farming location for Tier 5 and 6 Blood in Guild Wars 2, along with valuable tips to boost your earnings. Remember to maintain a fast pace, keep an eye on diminishing returns, and consider using the Mystic Forge for material conversion if necessary. Happy farming, and may your profits soar in Tyria!
