Spreadsheet updated for 2026.

Added to Super Rare category: Visage of the Khan Ur Charr helm, Swiftwing Raptor Mount Skin, Pulsing Bloodstone Infusion, Bog Queen Combat Tonic, Darkness Infusion, Eye of Argon, Visage of Nourys Armor, Fishing Infusion, Pale Branch Spear, Endless Dragonvoid Combat Tonic, Jotun Infusion, Bubble Infusion, Seer Infusion, Scarlet's Kiss

Removed from Super Rare category: Lightward's Battlestaff, Winter's Heart Infusion, Mini Molten Firestorm, Scarlet's Rainbow

Lots of new items for Super Rare and some of the cheaper items removed.

New items for exchange: Lightning Catcher Skin, Wind Catcher Skin, Sun Catcher Skin, Toxic Spore Skin, Desert Rose Skin, Chaos of Lyssa Recipe, Bazaar-Traded Weapon Chest, Monocle.

This is nice since you can get rid of a bunch of the junk items from opening them. For the Bazaar-Traded Weapon Chest price, I based that off of the average ectos you would get from salvaging the exotic. The monocle prices shown are for the three different weight classes. These are only for comparison as you can only trade the item itself for boxes and not the items you get out of the boxes. Too bad Anet didn't add a quartz crystal exchange as well.

Ecto rate changed to 1 ecto for 4 boxes compared to 1 ecto for 7 boxes from 2025. Pretty close to 2024 for 2 ectos for 7 boxes.

T6 Dust exchange rate still messed up. 2 dust for 1 box. Seems like Anet is committed to not fixing this.T6 dust prices are tied to ecto prices so the exchange rate for dust should be close to the equivalent of salvaging ectos.

No box opening for me this year as my main account was banned last month. I submitted a request for a Senior GM to review the logs associated with the ban with no response yet.

Unfortunate as I had 14 million research notes and 400k ectos saved up for this event which would have been enough for around 2.5 million boxes.
