    I'ma just add in something here that has been said by the devs relating to the Forgotten.

    "While they are all serpentine, the Forgotten, Naga, and Krait are all entirely unrelated biologically or socially."

    I agree, ANet has clarified this. I don't recall saying that they were related?

    Are you kidding me? The seer models in GW2 look EXACTLY like the GW1 model. Sidony is basically the same kitten thing. It's the closest GW1->GW2 conversion I've ever seen, sans the lack of legs because ghost.

    Isgarren looks different because he uses an illusion to make his appearance slightly closer to a djinn to not off-put the Astral Ward members.

     

    I didn't even know that this seer existed in game. I haven't completed all the side quests yet. Seeing this seer makes me happy and relieved that Isgarren isn't the only representation., and that they do have similarities to the GW1 seers.

    In regards to this part: I was saying that Forgotten is not a class in the biological classification system (whatever the official terms are). It is not equivalent to mammal, reptile, fish, invertebrea, bird, etc. Forgotten is a species.

    This said, Forgotten do not have mammalian features at all - the existence of a chest and torso is not unique to mammals, especially in a fantasy setting.

     

    But the thing is you do not know that, nor do I. Nothing in the game states this as being absolute and final, as we still do not know where they come from, or much about them.

    "Forgotten" just refers to the creatures that we see in the game. What I was suggesting that hypothetically , there are more species of closely related creatures to what we see in game. I was using the word Forgotten as a reference to a group of closely related creatures that included Forgotten in game, because there is nothing else I could use to describe them as such. I am just using the term based off of a Tyrian perspective. I don't know how else to explain this lol

    Also, which non mammals have the same skeletal and muscular structure as a human in their torso, arms, and hands? They literally have pecs lol. Their appearance in game is most definitely influenced by human anatomy. They are a humanoid type creature. Just like Charr are artistically modeled between humans, cats, ungulates, and so on.

    This said, they also acknowledge that it isn't their true species' name, just what others refer to them as, and in the very same context of referring to themselves as the Forgotten:

    "You look upon me and see the sunset of our race. I am the last of the Forgotten. It has been millennia since our true name was last spoken aloud, and soon we will be no more. No, do not mourn. We will live on in your work, in your words, and in your battles."

    https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/A_Study_in_Gold

     

    This doesn't disprove my theory though. That actually opens up more room for the possibility to be true, if the Forgotten don't even know themselves. If Isgarren were talking with Forgotten, and they lost their own people's history, then how would Isgarren know what the Forgotten's true name is? Or perhaps I am misunderstanding something, as my head is a bit foggy at the moment lol

    And yes, we do know where the Forgotten come from:

    Magic was hoarded by the elite: the seers, jotun, mursaat and the beings from the gods realm, to name a few. But the vast majority did not have power. This is no longer the case.

    https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Enduring_Icicle

    Which is the same place humans come from by all current indication in lore - Forgotten, Six Gods, and humans coming from the same place. Now we don't know anything about the other fauna, flora, or the ecosystem of the lands - all we know is that this place lacked natural magic (so much so humans believed the gods created it on Tyria).

    Now it is theoretically plausible that Samarog also comes from the God Realms like Forgotten and Humans, but that doesn't make it either a human nor a Forgotten. And yes, all this does prove that "other kinds of Forgotten" do not exist - at least to the biological extent that we see in Samarog. If "other kinds of Forgotten" exist, the differences will be as vast as an Asian is different from a European. Which is to say, they will still be snake people, with four arms, no legs, and that general scope of size.

     

    That is not actually quite true though lol. GW2 wiki quite literally says that there is doubt to them being brought with the Gods. The idea that they came with the Gods and so on is a biased perspective from Tyrian humans, from my understand. And if this were to even be true, which God realm did they come from? There are multiple human Gods.

    Human legends claim that the Forgotten were originally brought to Tyria by the Six Gods in 1769 BE to serve as the world's custodians during the gods' reforming of the planet.[6] However, recent revelations about the history of the gods have cast parts of this account into doubt.

      ... Except for the fact that Forgotten "are obviously not even close to resembling Samarog".

    Not quite. I had listed my observations earlier as to why I made this hypothesis.

    There's a water djinn in GW1 that takes human form, which involves losing a pair of arms. It's just as logical that a djinn could, if it chose to for some reason, turn into a centauroid dinosaur-like thing (hey, at least it's the same number of limbs!) as for the centauroid dinosaur-like melee bruiser to be a variation of the exclusively spellcaster serpentine Forgotten. More so, in fact, since djinn have been established as having shapeshifting abilities, and the only evidence that Forgotten might vary from the forms we see in game at all is a single artwork that might be an unreliable artist.

    Your argument begins with an artwork of dubious authenticity (Arenanet absolutely uses the unreliable evidence trope) and ends with 'they both have reptilian features'. There are a lot of creatures in the game with reptilian features that aren't Forgotten.

    But Samarog being reptilian isn't the only thing I said as my "proof" of a possibility of him being a type of Forgotten species. I know and agree that a few of the things that I have listed may be seen as "dubious", but the thing is, it still doesn't erase the possibility that Anet could make Samarog's background as being a type of Forgotten. Because again. There is no proof to suggest that it is impossible as I had said earlier.

    That would be fundamentally wrong because "Forgotten" specifically refers to the snake-people with four arms with webbing between them, the servants of the Six Gods, who allied with Glint after purifier her, and moved to the Crystal Desert.

    I don't see how this is true. Forgotten is just the name given by Tyrians. It is not the name the Forgotten gave to themselves. We only see serpentine people in game, we don't see anything else. We never seen where they come, their lands, flora, fauna, and so on. Even if Samarog isn't a species related to the Forgotten that we see in game, that doesn't prove that other species related to Forgotten or different types of Forgotten don't exist.

    It is not the equivalent of "mammal", it is the equivalent of "human", a species, or at most deviation, a nationality - though the way it is used by everyone, even the ancient races who by all account should kitten well know the Forgotten's true name (such as Isgarren and Mabon, who lived with one since the previous dragonrise), as the name of the species and not a nationality let alone biological class classification.

    How are Forgotten not partially equivalent to mammals? Half their body resembles that of a mammal, such as a human, and humans are mammals. I do agree with you and I think that is a really good point on the elder races and the Forgotten. But how do we know that the elder races do or don't know? I don't recall too well, but were the Forgotten there before the elder races, or came after?

     

    Quote

     

    No, my argument on them being snake people is by their functional biological appearance we witness in-game - in both games - as well as both human and their own mentions.

    Plus all the ssssnake puns that happen in their names, like Dassk Arossyss or Vassa Ssiss. Thank goodness they didn't talk with their ssnakey ssess-ss-s-s-s.

     

    I disagree that because their body has to solely be expressed as a snake just off of their biological appearance, when that isn't even too clear in game. So many other vertebrates portray body shapes that resemble Forgotten, from certain types of fish, to amphibians, to other squamates. We call them serpentine and snake like due to what is written in game and the wiki.

    Those snakes puns I totally forgot about. It has been a while. And that is very true with that as being a hint to being snake like.

    They have not done it once though?

    Designs may have changed between GW1 and GW2, but a design in GW2 remained consistent. And no, it isn't the same when people said they wouldn't release Elona, Cantha, Mursaat, or Seers - because this isn't about will they won't they release Forgotten. BECAUSE THEY DID RELEASE FORGOTTEN. And like the Mursaat, like the Seers, their GW2 models match their GW1 models pretty kitten closely. I don't even comprehend what point you're trying to make here because it's so vastly unrelated to what I said.

     

    I know the released forgotten already. I never said they didn't lol. It is the same as saying they won't release those other things. The Seers in GW2 don't exactly like the ones in GW1,  the hydra, gargoyles, and so much more don't either. But I am not, nor was I making the case that Samarog is the same thing as the Forgotten in GW1.

     

    Quote

    They had their chance to diverge and they didn't use it; the moment you throw out consistency within the same piece of media is when you throw away all credibility you've built up. The Forgotten are not krait, they do not have metamorphological capabilities and their one, primary, core defining feature is snake people, and Samarog is not snake-like even if he holds reptilian features.

    This isn't vastly unrelated to what you said. It is related. I was directly addressing what you had said here in regards to consistency. Doesn't what you had said prove that consistency hasn't been absolute with this game? There are so many inconsistencies and I would say that the game still has a lot of credibility.

    I agree, they could go in so many places with what Samarog is.

    But they can't go anywhere, and "is a Forgotten" is one of those places they cannot go. Because the term Forgotten specifically refers to the species and culture of the snake-people servants of the Six Gods who went into exile and was forgotten by human records after doing so. In the same way that Samarog cannot be a hydra or mursaat or dwarf or jotun. In the same way a deer does not look like a whale.

    (How they remain forgotten by every record is beyond me and logic though.)

     

    I do agree they can't just go anywhere, nor do I except them to.

    I never said they were the same species as Forgotten though. You are framing it here like I am. I am suggesting a type of Forgotten. And why cannot ever go? I don't think likely they will, but saying that it cannot be done would need evidence. There is nothing suggesting that they can't go in that direction.

    Again I am saying like I admitted earlier, I myself don't even believe that it is likely they would ever go in the direction of my speculation. It is a wild thought I brought up, and maybe if the devs saw this post, they would probably laugh at it haha xD

     

    The term Forgotten is a word given to a group of mysterious creatures with unknown origin. As with earlier, that is just the name Tyrians gave them. I am not saying Samarog would be or had been referred to as a "Forgotten", or is the same exact taxonomic classification.

    The example with whales not looking like deer is an example to show how there is no precise and absolute limit to what environmental pressures can have on evolution. Who knows, maybe Samarog is related to those things. But as with my initial post, I was basing my theory off of very specific features that looked similar, and using the idea of the differences as an explanation of evolution.

     

     

     

    Also, sorry for the formatting issues. I am trying to figure out, experiment, and learn the different tools on the forums

    By this argument, Samarog could be anything from a djinn in a flesh suit to a shell-less kappa.

    There is no support for your contention, and, in fact, everything we do know about the Forgotten leans against your contention. You can headcanon all you want, but if your only argument is "Samarog has some vaguely reptilian features" and "YOU CAN'T ABSOLUTELY ONE HUNDRED AND TEN PERCENT PROVE I'M WRONG", you do not have a credible theory.

    Even if we WERE to accept that the Forgotten were morphologically variable to the point where they could spontaneously grow an extra pair of limbs, horns, and a range of other non-serpentine features not observed on Forgotten, in addition to being an entity who's power is based on physical force while the Forgotten were exclusively spellcasters, there are thousands of other things Samarog could be if your standard for evidence is that low, and quite a few things that are far more credible (noble Kryptiss based on the Avatar of Rage model, mutant dragon with arms instead of wings, a variant Lupicus, and probably much more that I could find if I cared to look). 

    No, because djinn are obviously not even close to resembling Samarog. They are made of fire, rock, and so on. 

    There is nothing that I said that goes against Samarog having the possibility of being a type of species related to Forgotten. 

     

    I don't see why you guys are so against the idea, when there is literally more proof to suggest that he could be rather than the contrary. Why is my theory not credible? Why is your suggestion that the possibility of Forgotten to have various related species can never occur? All I was saying that it could be possible .  

    What is the proof that says the chance for this possibility is non existent???

     

    I never said that Forgotten would grow an extra pair of limbs. That would make no sense if we were applying our world's perspective on how they evolve, and none of this would be "spontaneous". Perhaps they did have 3 pairs of legs, and lost a pair over time. Maybe the need for horns went away. Maybe Samarog species were a more primitive type of creature related to Forgotten. Who knows. You don't and I don't. I am just saying it is interesting on where it will go. Because it is possible. Evolution can go so many ways. I gave you so many examples, but it is disheartening that no one ever addresses those examples I provided.

    And you right about those examples. I really like your dragon theory. Who knows what Samarog will end up being. It is fun to think about.

     

    It hurts that you say my standard of evidence is low. I was just trying to be fun and apply our world's perspective of evolution to Tyria. I get the feeling that you may believe that I think my theory is likely. I honestly don't think it's likely, and I even admitted earlier.

    Never said there is such a rule but... there rather IS such a rule. Because they already put the Forgotten design into the game in GW2 which follows the design from the original game.

    If they wanted to redesign the Forgotten to be vastly different and closer to Samarog... well, Samarog was added to the game before the Forgotten were, so they would have redesigned the Branded Forgotten and Forgotten statues that were added with Path of Fire to look more like Samarog.

    They had their chance to diverge and they didn't use it; the moment you throw out consistency within the same piece of media is when you throw away all credibility you've built up. The Forgotten are not krait, they do not have metamorphological capabilities and their one, primary, core defining feature is snake people, and Samarog is not snake-like even if he holds reptilian features.

    I never said, nor was I ever suggesting that Samarog was the same exact species as the Forgotten in GW1. Nor did I say they are krait. I am suggesting that they could be a closely related species. Just like how whales are ungulates, yet don't look very much like other ungulates. Why couldn't ANet make Samarog a type of Forgotten?

    "Forgotten" isn't their actual name, that was a description given by Tyrians. So what I am trying to say is that I am hypothetically using "Forgotten" the same way we use "Bird" to refer to all avian dinosaurs. It doesn't mean that all species of bird are called "bird".

    Your argument on them only being "snake" people is that from a Tyrian perspective. You and I don't know much about the Forgotten other than they come from the mists, they have a snake/eel/caecilian type body combined with that of mammal. In the first game they had webbing between their limbs, now they have a carapace on their backs. I would say that is a redesign, albeit small.

     

    I don't fully agree with your credibility argument. They have done this multiple times with regards to consistency and the game is still strong. It is the same thing as when people said that they had all their chance to not release Elona, Cantha, Mursaat, Seers, and so on as well, so it would never happen. Yet here we are with all of those things.

     

    Would you say birds are reptile like? Would you say tunicates look like chordates like you and I? Do whales look deer like?

     

    It is a fantasy universe, so they could really go in so many places with what Samarog could be. I would be happy either way, I am just excited that we finally get to see more stuff on Samarog lol

    Is Samarog reptilian, though? If you look at one of the close-ups of the face, the hide looks more mammalian. There are scales around the ankles, but the feet overall look more bird- or dinosaur-like, so based on that feature, not a squamate. The legs are also structured pretty close to straight down from the body rather than extending out to the side and then down from the knee like most non-archosaur reptiles, so again, not a squamate. The general body shape really comes across as being more like a dragon except with arms instead of wings.

    Truth is, Samarog is probably more likely to be the typical demonic form of having an amalgam of features from different species, classes, or even phyla. 

    It is fantasy, and just like with dragons and other mythical creatures that can appear either mammalian or reptilian, why couldn't the same be said for Forgotten? Saltsprays, Glint, Elder Dragons really don't look that much like each other that much morphologically speaking. Yet they are all considered various types of draconic species that are related. Same thing with drakes and wyverns.

     

    Birds are technically reptiles, but they don't have "reptile" like skin. Birds are also dinosaurs, specifically a type of theropod dinosaur like Tyrannosaurs and such. This just shows how there is no absolute in taxonomy.

    As with my previous example, Mosasaurs are the closest known relatives of snakes, yet they look nothing like a snake. Even look at Monotremes as another example. Or B ichirs vs Lungfish vs Salamanders that all have external gills in youth and neoteny, and neither are "super" closely related to each other.

     

    The Forgotten that we know in game don't have a head structure like most snakes, they don't have 4  human (mammal) arms and hands, they don't have a human torso, they don't have a carapace on their back (like seen in GW2), nor do they have webbing between their vestigial limbs.

    I think you are arguing polyphyletic traits to say it is not possible for Samarog to be a type of Forgotten. All I am saying is that it is possible that they could be related. But ho knows what ANet will decide Samarog to be. I agree that it could very easily be a demon, or even something created by someone.

    I'm not the only one confused with the response here, right?

    While some species did get some major makeovers, the branded Forgotten are pretty much on point to the design of GW1 Forgotten - their differences extend only to higher polygon count, really. Much like centaurs or, well, humans.

    This does not at all appear to be a case of the hydra repeating itself.

    There is no rule to say that everything must or must not follow the design form the original game. 

    If they want to make Samarog a type of species of Forgotten and the winged, armless Forgotten in GW1 murals as another type, then they  could do so easily if they wanted to.  Or they don't have to. There is nothing in the current cannon lore that would contradict this if they went through with what I theorized.

     

    Also, I am not saying the Forgotten from GW1 are totally different than the ones in GW2. They look pretty much the same, other than the webbing between their arms. I am suggesting different species of Forgotten other than the Forgotten that we know of currently on Tyria. We don't know much about the ones we see in game. They are mysterious and forgotten creatures.

    I think the issue with using the coatl-like artwork of a 'Forgotten' is that despite having a model (there was even a krait variant in GW1 that looked exactly like that), we've never seen a Forgotten like that in-game. Instead, they have a fairly consistent depiction of being four-armed serpents, with the GW1 version having a winglike membrane around the arms that is not present in the GW2 depiction.

    The mural is probably the result of someone describing a Forgotten with the membrane as a 'winged serpent' and then someone who'd never seen one made art of the image that came to their mind. Similar to how some mythical creatures are believed to be misinterpreted accounts of existing animals.

    With the Forgotten being morphologically fairly consistent, and nothing even similar to Samarog having been seen alongside anything associated with the Forgotten, I just can't see anything to back up the claim. Even if the mural was an accurate depiction of some rare variety of a Forgotten, it's a bit of a stretch to go from 'four-armed serpent, four-armed serpent with a winglike membrane, and serpent with feathered wings' to a massive horned centauroid body plan that I'm not even convinced is reptilian, let along serpentine.

    I defiantly agree that design in Guild Wars is not consistent, which is why I suggested this theory. Like as you say with the Krait, Skelk, Gargoyles, and much more. 

    I am not even advocating that Samarog is the same type of Forgotten that we see in GW1. I am suggesting that perhaps they are a type of "Forgotten", meaning that they are a closely related species form the same realm.

    There is no exact plan or consistency in biology. The anatomy of Samarog does have differences, such as a bulkier body, and two hind legs. Though it also has interesting similar characteristics as well (skull shape, dental structure, reptilian, 4 arms). Snakes in real life used to have legs, as they are squamates. Some have very small vestigial legs as well. 

    In our world there are examples of this non consistency; Mosasaurs are the (supposed) known closest relatives of snakes. They had a bulky bodies, fins, and were absolutely massive compared to most snakes.

    Another example of this are whales. Whales are a type of ungulate, which is a "hooved" animal such as hippos, horses, deer, moose, cows, goats, and so on. Yet they have fins, are the largest animals on this planet, and their body shape doesn't look anything like that of a horse.

     

    I know I am having copium lol, but I really want Arenanet to nerd out on different species, and possible taxonomic relations between certain ones.

    Of course, this is a fantasy universe. They don't have to follow our world's action of evolution and how we classify things, nor are they limited to using such things.

    Who knows, maybe Samarog is a fusion of some demon and a Forgotten, kind of like the Legendary Imbued Shaman (maybe he turned into a destroyer)  in the volcanic fractal, or Ensolyss. I ponder this sinceI think it was Isgarren who wrote that Samarog was a "mistake" that wasn't his to fix... or something like that.

    You're referring to the Kuunavang-looking elongated snake concept art put into the game, I assume?

    The only real difference is that it has actual wings and a longer body tbh, a very stylized depiction of the Forgotten anatomy. If you were told "the Forgottten are a race of large snakes with webbing between arms", depicting them as winged serpents isn't a far fetched notion.

    Unlike Samarog which has an entirely different vertebrae design, completely different skull structure (e.g., horns where Forgotten have none, and while arguably reptilian-ish jawline not serpentine at all), and additional limbs with nothing suggesting crawling on its belly (due to four legs).

    So I find it very unlikely. The only similarity is an apparent interest in spears... And Samarog's spears, and the ones held by a few Kryptis, are Mursaat related - not Forgotten related.

      Reveal hidden contents

    There's also two points of lore that suggest mursaat originate from Nayos, the Kryptis realm, and may even have a colony living there again.

    Samarog does seem to have some connection to the Mists, however, given Isgarren's commentary on Samarog's little statue in Tower of Secrets: "Samarog was not our mistake to fix" or something along those lines.

    I honestly also believe my theory is unlikely, but I just am on the hope train that we could get more interesting bestiary lore on mysterious races of Tyria lol.

    For the physical characteristics, I don't entirely agree on the anatomy comparisons. The art of the Forgotten has no arms, and has a skull structure that is completely different than Forgotten in game.

    Samarog's skull structure is literally quite similar to the Forgotten in GW2. The only difference is that he has ram like horns,  two legs, and is a bulkier.

    We really don't know much about the Forgotten race or where they come from, so the possibility of different "types of Forgotten" is not impossible I feel. Even the name Forgotten isn't their given name, but rather that given by Humans in reference to how much we don't know about them due to a large span of time, further showing how mysterious they are.

    I also wouldn't really say that the Forgotten have a skull that looks totally snake like. Even with the perspective that they are very snake like, snakes are squamates, meaning they are genetically a type of lizard.

    Various snakes also all have different types of head shapes, and there are many also many paraphyletic colloquial lizards that have similarities to Snakes (mosasaurs, varanids, etc)

    Nothing is always completely consistent with taxonomy. Another example could be different types of Salamanders who may have only 2 limbs, where as others have 4.  Then you have some Amphibians that don't have any legs, types that don't even have lungs, and others that exhibit neoteny. 

     

    Just to touch on affiliation with Janthir, I was suggesting that perhaps if Samarog were to be a type of Forgotten species, his affiliation with Janthir could simply be from his imprisonment by the Mursaat, or that there is a faction of Forgotten that are affiliated with Mursaat.

     

    Alternatively he could just be a demon, or some ancient race from Tyria, as most speculate.

    I really wanted to know more from the Samarog statue that Isgarren wrote about lol. Do you think he was suggesting that Samarog was "created" by someone, or that he may have been "benevolent" before?

    It is interesting that the Mursaat supposedly originate from Nayos (their homeland?). Would that make them Kryptis, or did they just settle there?

     

    Lot's of thoughts in my head, but that's the fun in speculation.

  11. Hi all, what do you guys think?

    I've been curious as we've seen art of Forgotten in gw1 that some different anatomy than the living ones in GW1. Does this suggest that their could be multiple types of Forgotten?

     

    Samarog shares a long pointed chin, similar reptilian type head, dental anatomy, and four arms as the Forgotten statues in GW2

    This may be a coincidence, but all the statues of Forgotten that I've seen in game, are them holding spears. Samarog wielded spears with the "Eye of Janthir(?)" mark on them. A little off topic, but I've seen Kryptis that are weilding these same spears that Samarog weilded. Maybe that is just relation to how Mabon suggested that the Mursaat are originally from Nayos, the Realm of Dreams?

     

    What do you all think?

  12. I really thought we would get a whole other half of the map, but all we got was a very thing slice. A tunnel.

    Also, there is no indication, hype cinematic, or anything for the new expansion at the end of the this episode. Like I have no idea what the conclusion exactly is at the moment, thought I may have missed something?

    I don't see why they couldn't have just released this episode with the last one. 

    Personally, I really love the demon theme of the story, and I am excited to see where this will eventually lead.

    • Were you able to talk to Taimi and complete the "Return to the surface step", but the issue is that the subsequent step is not revealing?
    • If yes: Did that interaction with Taimi trigger any dialog?
    • If yes: Did you leave the map or otherwise disconnect? Or, did the dialog get interrupted by other dialog in the map (such as from the meta?)
    • If no: Is Chul-Moo present along with the other NPCs standing in a group next to Taimi?

    No, I wasn't able to talk to Taimi after coming back from using her golem in the depths.

    Hey everyone, I have a couple of follow-up questions as we continue working on this. If you're experiencing this bug, can you let me know the answers to these:

    • Were you able to talk to Taimi and complete the "Return to the surface step", but the issue is that the subsequent step is not revealing?
    • If yes: Did that interaction with Taimi trigger any dialog?
    • If yes: Did you leave the map or otherwise disconnect? Or, did the dialog get interrupted by other dialog in the map (such as from the meta?)
    • If no: Is Chul-Moo present along with the other NPCs standing in a group next to Taimi?

    No, I wasn't able to talk to Taimi after coming back from using her golem in the depths.

  16. Hi everyone,

    I was wondering if anyone else noticed that the massive tendrils with mouths (“mawed tendrils”) at the final boss area of the Deep are the same exact ones found around the Mouth of Torment in the Desolation.

    The only difference is that the ones in the Deep have ley magic/energy going in or out of their mouths.

    Please take a look at these pictures on Imgur I took to show the comparisons. I also added some other picture of my findings that I tin foil hat for fun.

  17. This is something I made and put on Imgur in a rushed attempt to get my ideas out along with my recent findings in this new map.

    Just interesting things to think about.

    Of course everything in my Imgur post may be completely wrong or totally reaching.

    I am just putting a tinfoil hat on for fun. I don't remember a lot of the lore, as I have been away from the Guild Wars universe for quite some time.

  18. Hi, so I can't access the support ticket page https://help.guildwars2.com/hc/en-us, because every time I am on that page, press sign in, I am taken to https://account.arena.net/login this page.

    Once I sign into my account on that page, it takes me to my account information, and not any support page/ticket submission site. On the top right it says {Forums} {WIKI} {Support} {Register}, so I press {Support} but it takes me to a new window (signed out!) which is the support ticket page (the same one as the first link) .

    So basically I can never access a support ticket because I keep getting signed out from the support ticket page for some reason.

     

    How do I fix this?

    No! Just no!

    There are lots of emoji trolls that will spam the useless "confused" emojis regardless of what you say. Then there are those who would use that on every one of your posts if you disagree with them on an issue. And the funniest are those that will upvote themselves with multiple accounts because they think it shows them as winning an argument. Seen a few of those where a considerable number of "like" emojis are given to certain people within minutes but not to another who says exactly the same thing.

    Those reactions, either for or against posts, are rather silly, imo.

    Ah thank you for clarifying. It is has been confusing me, but I should probably just take these reactions with a grain of salt and move on then.

    Okay, so should Stage 4 kitten be a Skill too then? By your logic that would be just fine.

    I don't know? Should we remove and change the name of the condition "cripple"?

    Also do the same for skills such as "plague blast", "severe artery", "necrotic grasp, "grasping dead", and so on.

    These are medical conditions, and from my understanding, senility is also?

     

    Perhaps I am too young, or a is a lack on my understanding of English \ language barrier, , but was senile considered an offensive/swear word?
