I was just heading towards fishermans haven from sanctum cay and on my way there I found a "Tattered girls cape". Its a salvage item and has a value of 100.. just wondering if anyone has found one or knows anything about it.. it reminded my of the mystery that is gwen so I thought id mention it.

I found one too on my way to fishermans as well.
Have you salvaged it yet?
I want to salvage it, but before I do, I want to make sure it's not for some secret thing first. It's probably just a reminder of Gwen though, so if no one mentions anything special about it soon, I'll just salvage it and pray a Gwen doll comes out

Maybe connected to the tapestry and broken flute?

I tried salvaging mine and it doesn't salvage. A guildie brought up the idea that it might be for the 15k "cosmetic" armor. As tight as space is I hate to keep holding onto it so if anyone finds a use let us know please.

I wonder if it's there if you didn't buy the cape for gwen..it may do something later, and would definitely make a point to buying it.

i also tried to salvage it and sell it, but neither works. unlike the tapestry shred, it is listed as a salvageable item.

You can go back to the spot where you found the cape and get it again if you decide tyo throw it away so no worries.

I didn't buy the cape for Gwen but I still found this item outside Sanctum.

Maybe if we put all items in the Horadric Cube a portal will open to the Secret Cow Level... err I mean Secret Gwen Level

I've got one of these as well, but it's something worth thinking about: What would Gwen's cape be doing outside of Fishermen's Haven if she had died in the Searing, as most people assume?

Remember that she was outside of Ascalon when it happened - the same as your party and Rurik - so perhaps these little reminders are meant to suggest that she has already made this journey with other refugees; the same as you are making yours now. I wouldn't count on having seen the last of her, just yet..

I sure hope so. I got her broken flute at Sanitarium and if I could find her tattered cape then all the better. Maybe we can reunite her with her items (or what's left of them.)

Now isn't that a funny image! A level full of Gwens with poleaxes. Children of the Searing obey no master!

So let me see...

Got Broken Flute? Check.
Got Tattered Cape? Check.
Got Tapestry Shred? Check.
Find Gwen? Uh... nope.

Methinks that finding something to do with these items would be fun/beneficial. The question is... what?

Got Gwen's scalp? Check

You need to use an expert salvage kit.

I just found this cape too. No salvaging or selling but after reading this i may keep it.
About the flute.... i found a flute in ascalon area a while back but i never kept it.
It was called "magical flute" and had a value of 2gp. Not the broken one...which i know you refer to.
I wish i kept that. Gonna go back and get it again i hope.

Expert salvage kit doesn't work either. "This item cannot be salvaged" is the message you get.

Anyone come up with anything about this yet?

I hope we do run into Gwen again, she owes me money.

*Sigh* You noobs!

All these items are here to unlock a secret profession known as "The Gwens".

I'll tell you how, listen carefully.

First you have to collect 5 flowers pre searing but don't give them to her, buy a flute as well, again don't give her anything.

After you destroy ascalon you grab the tattered girls cape and the broken flute, you run to the river to the south east and stand in the water for exactly 95 seconds. After the 95 seconds are up you quit the game (exactly 95 seconds). Next find rurik, talk to him 13 times, on the 13th time leave the window up and go open your fridge door 13 times (closing it each time of course).

Once this is done close the window and go back to the river. Stand in it and equip the cape as a weapon and the BROKEN flute as your shield. Equip each of the 5 flowers as your armor.

Wait another 95 seconds and quit your game again.

When you get on your char again it will have transformed into a Gwen.

Gwen is a very imba profession with such skill as "Randomly stand around not helping", "Heal 20 whenever I feel like it", and "Spin in a circle while the Me/W gets owned in front of her very eyes".

If you guys attempt this and mess up your cd will blow up and it will delete it's self from your computer, FBI agents will walk into your house and inject something into your neck making you forget your CD key if for some insane reason you had memorized it.

Everything you touch will turn to ash and jesus will spit in your face.

GOOD LUCK.

I stepped on her cape, kicked the flute, and spit on the tapestry. I hate her, and I hope the tattered cape means the drakes ate her.

lmfao!!!!

In seriousness, I'm sure that if there isn't already some kind of super cool secret surrounding Gwen then there will be in future updates. I'm sure that the devs are aware of the buzz surrounding Gwen at the moment and also the props given to Gwen after the now famous BWE during which she smote everyone with her girly wrath.

I tried the steps expained above, and it seemed to work. But the next time I tried to play my Gwen build, it kept saying "That name is already in use, please select another name"!

Oh, her. She was in a party with me at Riverside yesterday. But she wasn't called Gwen.

wow
It’s been so long that I didn’t even remember posting in this topic.

Surprisingly I still have the tattered cape; both the quest item and salvage item versions.

But I’m sorry to say I’m not willing to sell them, even though I’m sure they won’t be used for anything. Would be weird to keep something in storage for 2 years and then sell it for 5k.

This is exactly why ANET shouldn't have the Tattered Girl's Cape used for anything other than being memorabilia. Exclusive items being pawned off for gold to people that are Gwen crazy and fearing they will miss out on some special bonus. I saw someone trying to sell one for 100k+ the other day... and why?

Take something out of the game that's related to Gwen without any explanation... then later release an expansion with Gwen in it... would be nice if this can be resolved.

ANET, please let people know what's up with this item. If you never plan on having a use for it... at least people will finally know. If you do plan on having it drop again... at least people will not waste their gold on it. Miniature Pigs anyone?!
