The Scrying Pool is a large pool of water located in the middle of the Hall of Monuments which shows visions while playing through Eye of the North and Hearts of the North. The pool can also be used to replay cinematics that a character has already seen or redo major quest missions from the Eye of the North storyline and the Heart of the North missions.

Locations

• Far Shiverpeaks
  • Hall of Monuments

Dialogue

The water in this pool is so clear its reflection is like a window into another world.

Look deep into the pool.

If there is a new vision to view:

Something is forming in the ripples of the water. Do you want to keep looking?

I'll keep my eyes open. I don't want to miss anything. (Sent to the next vision in the storyline.)

Show me something else. (Returns to the previous dialogue.)

I'm afraid. I look away before it's too late.

If there is no new vision to view:

The waters are completely still. There is nothing for you to see.

Show me past visions.

Which cinematic would you like to play?

<A list of of visions your character has already seen.>

Show me something else. (Returns to the previous dialogue.)

Show me past events.

Which cinematic would you like to play?

<A list of storyline cinematics your character has already seen.>

Show me something else. (Returns to the previous dialogue.)

Show me the story of the arrowhead. (sent to Watchtower Coast, will appear once The Arrowhead is complete)

Show me the story of the tarnished emblem. (sent to Majesty's Rest, will appear once The Tarnished Emblem is complete)

Show me the story of the broken sword. (sent to Aurora Glade, will appear once The Broken Sword is complete)

Show me the story of the Mantle's Guise. (sent to Beetletun, will appear once The Mantle's Guise is complete)

I seek guidance.

Upon what do you seek guidance?

<A list of repeatable primary quests your character has already completed once that you can reacquire.>

Show me something else. (Returns to the previous dialogue.)

I'll be on my way.

Notes

• When interacted with, the Scrying Pool makes a synthesized-sounding chord of varied pitch that ends with a water vibration-like sound.
• For all possible cinematics viewable, see List of Eye of the North cinematics.
• When it is time for you to see the next vision, your effects monitor will display Call of the Eye when not in a guild hall, outpost or town.

Bug.If you fail to activate a vision before the next one is available, that vision will not show up for that character until they finish the Against the Destroyers. For example, unlocking the Third Vision before viewing the Second Vision means you cannot see the Second Vision until you complete A Time for Heroes. Completion of Eye of the North unlocks all four visions.

Bug.When deciding which vision to show you when you look deep into the pool, Against the Destroyers sub-quests for which you have earned but not accepted the reward are counted among those you have completed and so the wrong vision will be shown. For example, if you complete G.O.L.E.M. but do not accept the reward for The Knowledgeable Asura, completing one of the other sub-quests will unlock the Third Vision instead of the Second Vision. Claiming the reward will then cause the Scrying Pool to offer the same vision again.

Trivia

The Guild Wars 2 Wiki has an article on Scrying Pool.

• "I'll keep my eyes open. I don't want to miss anything." is similar to the lyrics of the Aerosmith song I Don't Want to Miss a Thing: "I don't want to close my eyes. [...] And I don't want to miss a thing."
