We have the Slayer achievos for killing 1,000 of each creature xD but I'd love a Queensdale Academy mini event...giving harry potter or something...

Rubi I fully expect /inspect to have an emote if not now...then in the future 😉

It's not YOUR fashion, it's Guild Wars 2's fashion you are wearing. It's a video game so its time to mature up and understand that you are not your game. It's for enjoyment not for you to gain an identity.

Fashion Wars is certianly taking a whole new meaning. In summary, trying to gatekeep fashion is really behavior unbecoming of our community. Anyone can earn and create any other possible look so some reactions are very silly. LOVE the feature! Some people are too busy or don't see your message about what armor you're wearing so it cuts down on all missed connections.

the traits can grant bleeding and the ambush is one mirage which has been a condi class for a bit

Let's be clear though- not well received because many players thought they could just steamroll the content with any build like they did with Central Tyria. It wasn't well received not because it was a dynamic, compelling, interesting and sometimes brutal map. Were fighting an Elder dragon... of course this is supposed to be hard.

In summary, ArenaNet- DO maps similar to the ones in Heart of Thorns and the game will prosper for a long time. Do maps like Nayos, and you will falter significantly. Thank you for coming to my TyriaTalk.

The word is compelling- the maps are dynamic and interesting. Nayos is a shadow in comparison. It's gory looking and for that it's unique but almost no depth. Is that due to resource management? Probably so I guess this is the way it is now. Still a mile long but now an inch deep...

Bobby for this return to heart of thorns event its still unclear if Laranthir is officially in charge of the Vigil or is second command again? Can you clarify?

It's the lore aspect of it. This seems like a good way to make a few gold but lots of us want relevant lore loot for this "return to" event like how we got the interesting map cloak for doing the return to dungeons event. IMO if they would have saved something like that leaf glider for this event it would make this event that much more interesting (with of course ways to earn or buy it after the event). This event is profitable but not interesting. Also, IS Laranthir leading the Vigil now or not?

ah, the good ol unforseen consequences. We have to infer A LOT and I don't love that for us.

I guess some feedback is if we have only a year to bond/have quality time with the expansion allies I'd include them in most of the content. A little bit of Frode and his daughter and galrath in Nayos isn't cutting it. We need the whole astral ward there right now with us doing events. My feedback is a bit more useless IF we will be seeing these characters continuously in further expansions but I wouldn't know that. Also, killing Mabon was a mistake :P!

I think its unrealistic to always have the same companions...forever. Maybe for a long time sure but imagine the friends you had in highschool vs the ones you have now? Things change and the timeline is a bit less extended in game so we haven't seen our companions for maybe just a few months.

they made the psionic choya tonic useable whenever so they'll probably get to that too eventually

I can stomach the oops but the relationship between her and allegedly all the native races of Tyria is almost nonexistent. They missed that mark. Its great she decided to help Canthan humans out but does she give an F about the norn? The sylvarri (who are technically her dragon great-grandchildren)? Quaggan? Did she used to view humans as an invasive species?

i do appreciate that we can have an undead chicken mini at least xD

This is where the lore gets a little underdeveloped. Soo-Won, mother of all creation had no concept of what she was creating? Did she even care about any of the other races? Did she create all the ones native to Tyria? Some of this might have been an analogy for bad parenting but that seems a bit basic for an epic high-fantasy franchise. Lots of shoehorning...

Stupid in the sense of not fully critically thinking about the situation enough and its impact to try other options. However, what I'm getting at is if there really was no other possible way to resolve the dragons and their torment or would it have been an escalating room filled with claymores mines that never slowed down eviscerating reality eventually? Over what we got from IBS I'd take a half-baked stretch of them reverse-engineering the golden seal to do SOMETHING to the elder dragons. Also where's the chicken?! lol

Good to know about the placeholder rifle ambush. However, even if it did something cool like "spray" chaotic aura on teammates it still doesn't have alac or quickness. I suppose they could break up chrono and mirage and give one to each but now you're doing some butchering. Mirage has their condi trait which would be useless so they really would have to reduce both specs to optimize healing and boons IF they wanted both specs to equally be viable. They are in a tough spot 😕

My post was mainly jest. If they wanted to they could have reverse-engineered any part of that plot for the rest of the Elder Dragon saga but never chose to which is....unfortunate. The pact commander definitely deserved the Joko speech about being monumentally stupid. I do wonder what ever happened to the chicken and if it lived a normal life?

c'mon now, if you're going to critique you gotta be accurate- rifle ambush gives vigor and with mantle trait it gives fury.

*The Pact struggling to deal with the elder dragons* *Discovering the gold seal and the Orr ritual that cleanses the torment out of dragons* *us just now remembering we had those things available after murdering the rest* *kicks seal down the drain* <_< >_>

My feedback is that I want them to treat Guild Wars 2 as a competitive title and not some indy game. Where are the cutscenes? The cinematics? More merch? Novels? Marketting? More dev talks? etc

Do you and/or teammates find the rifle ambush obnoxious? I assume the pure heal numbers with the right gear and traits on rifle mirage is good enough but with the loss of chrono's alac and quickness is it viable? I know dps can have alac and quick in some groups but it does seem they prefer qheal and aheal.

Anet be like: yes yes yes all that is very interesting. So anyways... xD
