  Wow. That didn’t take long at all. I love you, Dulfy!

• Imulac

  A bunch of these are listed needlessly far apart. Just check aroundwhenever you’re at one chair, you’ll probably find several others inthe near vicinity.

• Jalen Dmello

  Armchair commander haha, Oh yeah i can definitely see the the appealwhy would many ppl would go for it :3

• PureWambo

  For those without a Griffon stuck at #3, you can use a Springer tojump onto the roof of the building to get to the same destination.

  • Mewcifer

    I really feel the springer solution should be the one listed inthe guide, since more people are gonna have springers.

    • Don36669

      But everyone’s addicted to their griffons. I see people justwalking around with it, flying up for a few steps beforelanding again and walking on. A Springer would be thelogical choice for reaching this chair, but logic goes outthe window when people are starstruck with their shinies.

  • RabbitUp

    You can get to the chair without any mounts, but it seems youneed gliding. There’s a tricky jump, and it might be possiblewith some profession jump skills or bundle items.

  • Matthew Williamson

    For #3, just go to the center of the top level of the main cityand enter the instance for the Arcane Council. It won’t let yousit in the chairs due to “an invisible barrier”, but it givesyou the credit.

• bigbud

  Im so glad that we dont need serpents ire for this achiev.

• Haleigh Knowlton

  Actually there was an Iron Siegesofa in the home instance as wellagainst the back wall of Hero’s Forum. The throne was the only one Ididn’t find in the Hero’s Forum.

• Максим Черный

  #7,#8,#9,#11 are all where #7 is in the guide

• Dan Vonerets

  so I can’t get this achievement because #42 i s bugged?

  • Vegeta

    Yep.. supposed to be a fix coming later this week (idk what day)

• Fadhli

  Funny how some guild hall chairs count towards the achievement.

  • Ayakaru

    probably to increase the value of the guild(s and their halls)

• Mari5463

  Just a note all of the charr seats can be found in the home instancein the , just need to keep your eye out as most are around theHero’s Forum POI. Thanks for the guide Dulfy!

• Gay and arting

  was it confirmed that the last chair is bugged? cause if it wasnt, ihave the speculation its actually a chair in lions arch\“This is the site of the First Sittable Chair, from which all othersderive—the King of Chairs. It’s a secret which one it is.” – ThePatch Notes\Maybe theres one special, original sittable chair somewhere in lionsarch that just noone has found yet?

  • \///

    it was\https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/87m4vb/anyone_found_the_rulers_throne_chair_yet/dwdv6ig/?st=jfbqryyy&sh=310d91c4

  • Don36669

    I interpret that as a funny reference to the first chair evercreated for GW2. I can’t confirm it, but I find it a likelyinterpretation.

• narg

  for #3 you dont need grifon, just use your rabbit and jump up overthe roof

• KJ

  This achievement should grant you a simple wooden chair tonic, soyou can’t take a seat anywhere! anytime!

  (usable in conquest mode too, of course!)

• Sefer

  Not able to sit on “Queen Jennah’s Throne”. You cannot interact withit, /sit doesn’t work!

  • Sefer

    Oh and I am still in a love-hate-relationship with your guides.Do it in order pls … 🙂

    • Thanathos

      It’s in order. In order of the chairs like they’re displayedin the achievement.

  • Sefer

    Nope, not able to interact with any racial leaders throne …

• Rick C

  It would be nice to see this re-ordered so you don’t have to keepbacktracking over the same zone (both the Black Citadel andDivinity’s Reach.)

  • Kitties

    you could just ctrl+f the areas

    • Rick C

      True, and that’s what I did. I’m just saying it’d be nice ifthey rearranged the article a bit so we don’t have to.

      • Skippy the Chimp

        It’s in the order of the achievement. I didn’t need tobe told to sit in other chairs next to the ones I wasalready doing.

• Rick C

  If you go to Knut’s instance, you can’t sit on his throne, becausehe’s already sitting on it. If you go to Arcane Council, the chairsdon’t have sittability. This strongly suggests that it only refersto Jennah’s throne, or it refers to some other chair entirely.

  • Don36669

    Or you could just try it. You still get credit for a chair whenanother player is already sitting in it. And lo and behold, youget credit for trying to sit in Knut’s chair as well. That’s howI got my #42. You just get a little dialogue about Knutpointing out to you there’s already someone sitting in the chairand you deciding not to press the matter further. Ruler’s Throneseems to work for all the rulers in cities, no matter if thechair is occupied or not.

    • Rick C

      When did you try? Last night, when I wrote that comment, Icouldn’t sit in his chair (in the instance. I don’t know ifit’s possible to get into his room in the open world). Maybethey updated it since? That’d be cool.

      • Don36669

        I did it about an hour or 2 before I posted here. Since#42 was unobtainable at first it would seem I did itafter they fixed that. Just enter the instance and dowhat you would do with any other chair. Considering thatyou get participation for the achievement when anotherplayer is already sitting in a chair, it stands toreason that Knut already sitting in his doesn’t hindergetting the achivement either.

• Cianann

  Ruler’s Thrones are back in order! 😀

• Korey Garabed

  Chair achievement….. Really?

• Aista

  You can get Ruler’s Throne in Arcane Council (Rata Sum). Apparentlyit counts as #3 too, in my case when I interact with the Ruler’sThrone it’s also completed the #3 as well thus completed myachievement.

• Alot

  Armchair commander. That is the title which hangs above all gamers’heads if you toggle them on -.-

• Doghouse

  Just to confirm that, as of this morning (29 March) and in SW atleast, the final chair is no longer bugged. Just completed thecollection in Queen Jenna’s Throne Room.

• Sorenyth

  Hey Dulfy!

  4-11 can be found all in the Home Instance of the Charr!

• Biscuit

  If, for some reason, the Krytan Simple Chair doesn’t appear inRook’s Row (it didn’t for me), there’s one beside the entrance ofVanguard Hospital. You’ll have to click on it to interact becausethere are three NPCs crowded really close to it.

• Preacher Jorg

  all the charr/legions, can be found in the charr home instance

• Mr. Principal

  Queen Jennah’s Throne should be the last one to sit on..

  • narg

    it can be any racial kings throne

    • Mr. Principal

      Sry for late reply.. Well I tried the other thrones.. butnone of them worked except Queen J’s throne..

      • Natalie Hodgson

        For my asura it only worked at rata sum. Maybe itdepends on your characters race.

• Adam Rees

  Just a tip for those who don’t have the Gryphon, but want to getthis achievement. For the Arcane Council chair, you can use thespringer to launch yourself onto the roof of the Incubation Lab,then once you reach the top of the pyramid, slide down to the ledgethat leads inside on the right hand side.

  • SueZ

    That’s basically what I did as well. I used my glider from thebridge to a ledge around the corner, then used my springer toget the around the rest of the way and then up onto the side soI could drop in from above. It can be done. My trouble now isthe chair itself. It wouldn’t give me credit. I logged out andrebooted, and now I can’t even get the option to Sit to come up.

  • Morphine Dementia

    Or you can enter the Arcane Council instance (portal in themiddle of upper level of Rata Sum) and interact with any of theseveral councillor chairs to get the credit. Much simpler.

• SueZ

  I’ve got all but the first one, Rata Stool Model 34. I’m sitting init right now as I type this, but it’s not giving me credit for it.Is this bugged or was there supposed to be a particular order that Ididn’t follow?

  • Kitty Rallo

    I did the same thing… turns out I wasn’t in the home instance(Applied Development Lab) I was in Snaff Memorial Lab which alsohas a chair in the same place… Go to ADL and it’s on the upperfloor.

• Forward is Good

  i sat in the queens throne first just to see, and it worked justfine. am I not understanding what the bug is?

• Sparky

  The queens throne worked for me and I got my chair

• Arle Andersanka

  Worst guide I’ve seen on Dulfy so far. Could easily have done ittwice as efficient by doing all chairs in the same houses, instancesand cities at once, instead of jumping back and forth to waste timeand money. When you’ve done 17 and 18, go to 21 directly. Then do20, 23 and 24 instead of going to LA twice. (I’m at 20 now)
