Looking for Gw2 Scales? We have farmed for scales quite a bit and found this great place for farming Gw2 Scales.
Some other links that help: Gw2 Farming Guides, Gw2 Crafting Guides

Located in the very bottom of Blazeridge Steps there is a great river filled with about 50 Salamander Drakes.
The spawn time is very fast and they can be handled pretty easily 5 at a time. The drakes drop of plenty scales and as an added bonus they also drop Claws too.
The closest waypoints in Blazeridge Steps:
- Twin sisters Waypoint – east of river
- Tumok’s Waypoint – west of river
- Splintercrest Fort Waypoint – north of river



lots of torn hide and slabs of meat. Very few scales dropped, but claws and eggs did drop. I went to this area directly after the Halloween patch. Made 23 silver in an hour.
did this for exactly 1 hour, sold everything they dropped at avg price and made about 50 silver, just so you can reference.
Did the same. Had a few people run through for the quest so that took some kills away, but I got ~44 silver for everything after about 45 minutes. Excellent range of drops and they will respawn right on top of you making it a breeze. You will only loot about 1/4 of your kills so you have to group them up and kill them quickly for this spot to be effective imo.
