Connects Claude to Guild Wars 2's public API without requiring authentication keys. Exposes tools for querying items, achievements, worlds, build info, and commerce data. Useful when you want to answer questions about GW2 game content, look up item stats or trading post prices, or build tools that reference achievement requirements. Hosted through Pipeworx's gateway infrastructure, so you can either connect to the standalone Guild Wars 2 endpoint or tap into the full Pipeworx gateway for 250+ data sources. Also supports natural language queries through ask_pipeworx if you'd rather describe what you need than call specific tools directly.
Guild Wars 2 API v2 MCP — keyless public endpoints (worlds, items, achievements, build, etc.).
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1476+ live data sources.

single item looked up by name ("Mystic Coin") or by item_id. Returns highest buy order,
lowest sell offer, quantity on each side and the spread, each as raw copper and a readable
gold/silver/copper string, plus item name, rarity, type and icon.Pass ids as a comma-sep string ("1,2,3"); omit for index.
Trading Post unit_price values are in copper. 100 copper = 1 silver, 100 silver = 1 gold, so
19944 copper renders as 1g 99s 44c. guild_wars_2_item_price returns both forms.
The official API has no item-name search: /v2/items/search returns 404, and /v2/items with
no ids returns ~70k bare IDs — far too heavy to scan per call. So guild_wars_2_item_price
resolves a name in three steps:
/v2/items and confirmed to carry a live Trading
Post quote.api.datawars2.ie — a keyless third-party GW2 item index. This is an added
dependency outside ArenaNet's control; its name filter is exact and case-sensitive, so the pack
retries with title-cased variants, and the call is bounded by an 8s timeout.{found:false, reason:'item_name_not_resolved', hint}
telling the caller to pass item_id — it never guesses a different item.Account-bound items (Pile of Bloodstone Dust, Charged Quartz Crystal, Mystic Forge Stone, …) have
no Trading Post quote and return {found:false, reason:'item_not_traded'}.
https://api.guildwars2.com/v2 — plus https://api.datawars2.ie for item-name fallback only.
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"guild-wars-2": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/guild-wars-2/mcp"
}
}
}
tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/guild-wars-2/mcp returns the tools in the table
above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools — ask_pipeworx,
discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the
gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a
single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the
pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and
is the authoritative answer for a given day.
This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a
scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via
ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a
second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without
them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth,
connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1476+ data sources. The
only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx
reaches all of them from either one.
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Guild Wars 2 data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
