# Guild Wars 2 Database

> A fan-run database for Guild Wars 2, sourced from ArenaNet's official API
> (api.guildwars2.com/v2, lang=en). Not affiliated with ArenaNet or NCSoft.

## What the data means

Every entity record is confirmed from the official API. There are no invented
rows. Three records per live kind is a sample, not a full pull.

- confirmed — returned by the official API for that id
- awaiting kinds (npc, vendor, event) have no API source and no records

## Coverage

- 51 sourced entities across 17 kinds: items, skins, skills, traits, specializations, professions, recipes, achievements, mounts, minis, outfits, gliders, titles, currencies, colours, maps, stories
- 9 official news posts (RSS + ISteamNews appid 1284210)
- 3 entity kinds with no API source: npcs, vendors, events

## JSON

The JSON says exactly what the pages say.
