GW2 - Guide to unlocking legendary characters and items

[ Edited ]
★★★★ Guide

This is a detailed thread concerning how legendary characters and items can be unlocked in Plants vs Zombies GW2.

 

These items/characters have a super ultimate "Legendary" rarity that cannot be earned rather quickly. They are only awarded to you after you buy a ton of the most expensive sticker packs from the sticker shop, which means the process of earning every legendary item and character is very long and tedious. This process consumes a lot of coins overtime, and only players who play GW2 nearly everyday have the most hope of earning them.

 

Let's see how these Legendary items/characters are unlocked:

 

Buying a lot of either the Wondrous Pack of Greatness, Fertilizer Fun Pack, Amazing Brainz Pack or Zany Zombopolis Pack overtime can earn you any of these items/characters:

 

Items

RGB Cats! - Legendary hat for the Citron Class

Koala Of Darkness - Legendary hat for the Rose Class

Face Of Delight - Legendary hat for the Corn Class

Boom Box - Legendary hat for the Peashooter Class

Rocket Turtle - Legendary hat for the Chomper Class

Lord Cinderbottom's Nephew - Legendary hat for the Sunflower Class

Blur Bug - Legendary hat for the Cactus Class

Epic Disco Bot - Legendary hat for the Imp Class

Sidekick Kitty - Legendary hat for the Superhero Class

Bling Shark - Legendary hat for the Pirate Class

Epic Bat-A-Tronic - Legendary hat for the Soldier Class

Epic Dillo Derby - Legendary hat for the Engineer Class

Orbital Cube - Legendary hat for the Scientist Class

Pop Smarts! - Legendary hat for the All-Star Class

 

Characters

Iron Citron

Disco Chomper

Toxic Brainz

Computer Scientist

 

Buying a lot of the Frontline Fighters (FLF) Pack overtime can earn you any of these items/characters:

 

Items

Judge Grudge - FLF Legendary hat for the Citron Class

Crimson Crown - FLF Legendary hat for the Rose Class

Birthday Cake - FLF Legendary hat for the Corn Class

Lunch Rectangle - FLF Legendary hat for the Imp Class

Hot Beans! - FLF Legendary hat for the Superhero Class

Corky Cannon - FLF Legendary hat for the Pirate Class

 

Characters

Commando Corn

Scallywag Imp

 

Update: the Wondrous Pack of Greatness, Zany Zombopolis Pack and Frontline Fighters Pack have been merged into one - after the sticker shop was tidied up - meaning all legendary items and characters earned in the three packs from before can now be obtained in just one pack: Wondrous Pack of Greatness.

 

Party characters can only be earned by either reaching 25,000 time shards in infinity time, or buying the time-limited Infinity Pack from the sticker shop. The party characters are:

 

Party Citron

Party Rose

Party Corn

Party Imp

Party Brainz

Captain Partyman

 

The Trials Of Gnomus DLC contains the following Legendary Hats:

 

Jet Topper - TOG Legendary hat for the Chomper Class, RUX-Exclusive*

Cuckoo Clock - TOG Legendary hat for the Corn Class

Noodle Nester - TOG Legendary hat for the Corn Class

You Got Mail - TOG Legendary hat for the Soldier Class

Torch Topper - TOG Legendary hat for the Scientist Class, RUX-Exclusive*

Funky Skunky Cheerleader - TOG Legendary hat for the All-Star Class, RUX-Exclusive*

 

*Jet Topper, Torch Topper and Funky Skunky Cheerleader are the only TOG hats exclusive to RUX's Bazaar.

 

Hats that can only be bought at RUX's Bazaar (the above RUX-Exclusive hats have already been mentioned):

 

Hungry Hatchling - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Peashooter Class

Drake The Snake - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Peashooter Class

Outback Bonnet - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Sunflower Class

Steven - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Sunflower Class

Mr. Linty - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Chomper Class

Robot Disguise - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Cactus Class

Pickle Jar - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Cactus Class

Serene Cinnamon Roll - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Citron Class

Alien Crashsite - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Citron Class

Hen Hat - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Rose Class

Banana Bunker - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Soldier Class

Score Judge - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Soldier Class

Swine Camouflage - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Engineer Class

Mr. Headache - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Engineer Class

Tesla Tube - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Scientist Class

Sodalirious - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the All-Star Class

Motorized Flamingo - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Pirate Class

I Am Fish - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Pirate Class

Robo Rooster - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Imp Class

Space Coaster - RUX-Exclusive Legendary hat for the Superhero Class

 

There are other legendary items in the game that can be earned in various ways:

 

The Everlasting Crown can only be unlocked if you open the 200 star rainbow chest in the Chamber of Gnomes display area. Completing Plant and Zombie quests can give you yellow quest stars for you to use. Remember to save up on those yellow quest stars, and once you reach 200, you can open the 200 star chest in the Chamber Of Gnomes. The chest is found in front of the large golden Hammer Gnome statue.

The Gnomish Perspective can be unlocked once you open the last door deep inside the chamber of gnomes.

 

So there you go. I hope people finds this helpful in their cause.

It is a terrible random, it isn't guarantee you those characters. I bought yesterday 65€ a pack of 2,500,000. Nothing of all those! Nothing about abilities! 
I followed your guide and didn't work...

Sorry but sticker packs are the worst idea in PvZ GW2...

As I mentioned in your other duplicate post, 2.5M coins is only a dent in the number of coins you need to spend to get these characters.  Good luck!  Enjoy playing the game and you will earn the coins you need to get them.

I think you misunderstand a bit- this particular Guide exists to explain what characters have s chance to drop from each type of Sticker Pack.

There is never any guarantee involved to any Sticker Pack purchase except for the Phenomenal Character Pack which will always unlock one of the basic launch characters up to Super Rare.

When character pieces or alternate abilities actually drop is entirely random and completely unpredictable. In that regard spending just a couple of million PvZ coins is simply a small fraction of what you'll ultimately spend waiting for those random drops to happen.

If you're trying to find a thread concerning alternate abilities, then this thread is not for you. This thread is all about how to unlock Legendary Characters and Items; please be more honest here.

I can confirm that Fertilizer Fun Pack and Amazing Brainz Pack drop abilities for Plants and Zombi characters.

It was weird the fact I bought a lot of these packs and no abilities, but later (last Friday) with coins earned from game, I dropped some abilities.

Okay about horrible drop rate, but PoPCap can do it better...

 

I am still trying to buy those packs for get legendary characters like as Toxic Brainz and Computer Scientist.

This guide is very helpful. I am rank plate 24 and still have only half of all legendary characters as well as missing hats. I know if I get half a piece to a legendary character, I won't see one again for a month or two. It is tedious and costly.

Love rux however he has been very disappointing the past few months. I'd like to see more special customizations and abilities like the vamp weeds. More 1,000,000 opportunity pieces to disco chomper or bring the unicorn to those of us who could buy him with coins from rux...
