All that the Obsidian, Azure and Emerald Sanctum need is that we don't lose participation while in those zones, so that we could complete them at our own pace.

I wish they'd remove the Obsidian, Azure and Emerald Sanctum jumping puzzles from the wvw weeklies, or at least make us not lose any participation while inside those areas.

I'm absolutely digging this patch. The map is, like, totally rad. And the demons are real bros now too, I'm totally in the zone right now with everything. Can't wait to see the rest of the map and the story when they're out. The only thing I think is a bit meh is that the masteries are all related to the convergences. Nothing that's useful in the open world, which is a bit of a bummer y'know? Hopefully the next update will give us more open world masteries.

If they intend to keep going with these changes, then they should at least bake the old Song of Arboretum effects into the baseline dodge to keep the spec fluid.

Bastion of the Penitent raid wing is pretty horrific, when you find out what was going on in there.

I think that, at the very least, winning a match should mean something. Right now it doesn't, which is just weird.

At least we now know for certain that the female charr in fact don't have any boobs on their model.

Well, personally I'd like them to implement an auto kick for being at 0 participation for more than 10-15 minutes, because the amount of AFK players artificially inflating queues on my server is pretty ridiculous.

It shouldn't have a CD at all in wvw. Or an energy cost. Song of Arboretum should remove both. Before we could have an on-demand vigor whenever we'd dodge, and now we'll have a 30s CD ability that also costs 10 energy and has a cast time. I can't speak for other modes, but in wvw this is basically creating a problem where there was none and then selling us the solution that's still inferior to what we used to have. Not happy about this at all.

Well, hammer is already meta in wvw for zergs, and this will make it even better.

The only way Song of Arboretum is going to be good now is if it would also entirely remove the cooldown and energy cost on the Energy Meld, which won't happen. So it'll remain a nerf unless it provides nearly permanent vigor uptime, which also won't happen. In WvW it absolutely needs to remove the cooldown and energy cost on energy meld, or it'll heavily damage Vindicator in roaming and even in zerg fights. If they want us to have to use energy meld to gain vigor, then it can't have a cooldown or an energy cost, as having those will always make it a nerf over what we used to have, at least in WvW.

Black Friday is coming soon, so it's most likely that GW2 expansions and DLCs will go on a big discount.

In sure it's going to be fun. They're on a roll with SotO.

I wouldn't mind GW2 coming to PlayStation, but i doubt it'll ever be ported to mobile phones/tablets.

I agree, Amnytas and even Skywatch are pretty hard on the FPS. Especially if you are facing the interior of the zones. It's a shame, since both zones are beautiful and with fun events and metas.

Would be nice to have obsidian shard dumps. I've over 1500 of them, with nothing to spend them on.

It's an improvement for me, but it's nothing crazy. I still use the scholar runes, but am now shuffling between the Isgarren and Evasion relic depending on the content (WvW). Overall I'm satisfied with the relics, just not blown away. 🙂

A fair question. To me, the premise of the expansion alone is intriguing, and the intro was well done. The characters are interesting for the most part, and I look forward to seeing what'll happen next. I also like the story around the Wizard's Court.

I enjoy SotO. Wizard's Vault is great, story is great, weapons master is great, events are varied and numerous, lots of collections and things to work towards. The only thing I dislike is the ridiculous amount of ectoplasms needed for just about everything, but other than that I'm having fun. I look forward to the upcoming patch. 🙂

I like the new system. I've already bought everything from the vault, and am now getting a nice, steady gold income from those 30AA gold bags. 🙂

Making weapons dyable.

They'll add more mastery points when they add new masteries, so there's not really any point in hoarding mastery points.

The yoga part is great, what are you talking about? I just wish they'd give us the emote which makes us do the yoga meditation pose like the one from that meta.
