I would like the mad king says to be updated with new emotes: " oh no, poor subjects, you lost your heads? Playdead, hurry" or "this night definitely feels cold, doesn't it makes you shivers?" even "I don't feel my legs anymore my subjects, let's do some stretch!"
By equity, because those are unlocked with icebrood saga, maybe it gives a point to people doing it and the players not using any emotes? Or we offer the new emotes to everyone?
Just a thought. Also maybe an ability to not have the gathering /intro cinematic in dement clocktower and directly starting the jumping puzzle? Instead, one of the courtier could offr the possibility to watch the cinematic.
Only that, because the rest is already very cool.

First change:
Instead of having 3 mad labyrinth bosses (Lich/Viscount/Horror aka steve) you now have 5 of them, fun fact, they cover each corner of the map:
North-West = Viscount / South-West = Hollowed Gourdbinder / South-East = Lich / North-East = Horrower Veltan and of course the lich, middle/all the map.
I find it nice that Horrower Veltan is a Willbender. I love when bosses or foes are one of the expansion elite specialization.
Second change:
Vetteran doors now summon vetterans 5 instead of 1, very cool, take more time to kill, more loot, and less boring than just one.
Third change:
The atacks indicator, I felt since first halloween that it was needed to give informations about mechnaics, seeing peoples dying at viscount or steve. Now, steve has a rectangular target for chainsaw attack and a line arrow for spinning chainsaw. Viscount candies pools now have blue arrows pointing at their center, imho nice addition, pretty clear peoples have to aim/swim in those now. Even for the Gourdbringer, it shows aoes.
Finally, happy to see that the undead king of all king is now here (Well, I let you do the quest, but definitely obsious it is a kind of hologram). But, still, so small, it needs crates to have same height!
The dialogues between him and thorn are also exquisites.
That's it, just an appreciation post, Halloween feel even more living, definitely more changes, like i think now that we drop lunatic armors crates as loot in the lab, pretty useful and awesome too. If you haven't looked at this year annual reward, it is two hands with eye between, shoulder pads, they look nice imho. And well, liked the decorations too. Halloween is so much fun, impatient to see what is in store for wintersday 2021, but for halloween, it is the first time i saw quite an impactful change, the addition of new bosses is really great, and the labyrinth feels even funnier.

Stupid question, but stairs you can walk up right? Not just objects shaped like them?
yeah, you can "climb", walk on them like on a regular stair. Definitely economizing decorations, 1 now instead of 10 metal tiles.
Yeah, lantern from last year, edited the post.
-
There are in total, if I'm not wrong, 4 new decorations: 🙂
3 are stairs, the ones used in dement clocktower/ around LA mystic cauldron. Turn to right, Straight, Turn to left. (Foreground of the screenshot)
Names of Decos:
-Shattered Stairway
-Skewed Stairway (left)
-Skewed Stairway (right)
1 is a circular lantern platform, again, the one used in dement clocktower / LA mystic cauldron.
Name: -Unchained Platform
What is really cool here, is firstly: STAIRS. Thank you Anet, no more a pain to make stairs with Metal tiles from raid fun room nor stacking jade blocks!
Secondly, those metal stairs and platform, in addition of former year dement clocktower gears allow players to build their own Dement clocktower replica/training in their guild hall. Sure the clocktower in itself is missing, but still you can create a very fun Halloween jumping puzzle now 😄
About materials? Well, 10 pumpkin each so understand 1000 candies each , 30 darksteel ingots, some fabulous/pristine halloween foods like best nougat center and the famous finishing kit. Dunno if expensive, but to make those 4 decorations , I spent ~20g at the moment i speak, so around 5g a decoration, pretty accessible imho. Saw worst in term of cost.

Can't we be a forum from the early 2000s that hosts its own images?
Totally agree, I can't understand that in our Editing post/comment toolbar we don't have a tiny image icon that trigger auto embedding of your uploaded photo. 2021, 2022 soon, with a forum that cannot even support images is annoying.

Good idea. Can be a reward for replaying ls1 strikes like marionette and possible next ones like battle on lion's arch

With Yao, Eod character shown on the eod website, I would really like more prosthesis and eye visors skins on the gemstore as unique 600 gems skins if you want.
Really, I find it kinda sad, we can't play as a commander with disabilities! You know, especially being a war leader, it is common jumping on a mine, getting a hit, being bitten by a risen, losing your arm because you got stuck or destroyed by mortar shell.
I'm very sad that we can't be like Yao with an arm prosthesis. Even a mecha leg or a kind of device on torso because your character have a cardiac/pulmonary issye can be very interesting, making our character having more depths with sad backstory, on the other side, it can also help the players which have disabilities to have a character that looks like them if they would like to.
Currently, only having pet leg / hook is very restraining. Can only hope with eod/aetherblade of more hih tech armors including those prosthetics, the canthan technologies feeling so far really steampunk/cyberpunk. Well let's call it jadepunk.

Guess I was wrong. The beta is from 26 to 30 october, and the previous week, from 18 au 22 october we will have for sure the specialization videos up on youtube.
Come on. With a rate of 1 silhouette per week, it could be today and two other fridays. By following the same organization of 2nd beta events.
Annoying. Really, the void is felt. We should have at the hour of today at least one silhouette. Not even asking for a complete one, a shadowy one like we had for second beta specs... I am fed up by return events, got the bag and precursor. But will stop doing them. I don't want an aurene weapon.
The elite spec reveal are cool, it creates discussion, revitalize, generate hype. It makes me more and more worried not seeing any new spec.
Wasn't the only person expecting a new silhouette today, see Yung Reezy.8479

ArenaNet, could you please, add a Reward Track Conversion system? It would offer the possibility to convert the progress of a WvW reward track into a progress of a PvP reward track.
I just got the idea now, I like a lot the glorious armor set of PvP. Issue? I hate pvp, because I don't want to go there and receive +100 Insults and harassment after moving my character. I enjoy and do a lot of WvW. A reward track is a reward track, effort is effort. It is time to stop separating the reward tracks into game modes and offer an universal system that regroup all the rewards and that can be contributed for by any activity or gamemode. Or at least, as I said, a way to convert the reward track progress from a gamemode to another gamemode.

Definitely condi dps. Would have liked short bow to shoot modified arrows that either explode into a big fire aoe on floor, another one creating noxious gaz, another with an electric field, to end with a shrapnel one and a glue one. The special skill could be charging an energy bar to trigger a powerful shot like, you shoot a spiky harpoon on long distance that cripple, bleed and, torment and burn everything it touch, because, the spikes on the harpoon can be energized jade shard something like that. About utilities can be revolving around lasers or alchemy. You can like, throw drugs and go in them to gain boons while foes are confuse or stun by them.
I like holosmith animations, thats why I liked a lot the bladeworn too. I definitely want that eod spec to feel high tech, and not fantasy or medievalish.

There is a pattern. You will have a silhouette this friday, then a second the friday of next week then another one the friday in two weeks. Just hope engie isn't last but will be the order it will be /shrug. The 3rd beta test will arrive soon enough.

Would really like an aetherblade themed spec. There are several aetherblade/admirals that have unique attacks, think of slick or the charr admiral of twilight arbor aetherpath creating whirling electric axes aoes.
Frankly, now, even thinking of scrapper, why gyros? Really? Since they are now wells, can't they be replaced by gadgets making those wells? Eletric axes like i said earlier, southsun canach big mine, magneton.. really, scrapper could have been more innovative regarding electricity/magnetism instead of too small to see little flying things above you.
For engie eod, what is possible?
1-Half mecha half living pet. Dunno, can be a kind of abobination that have weapons, think of hellbrute/obliterators of warhammer 40k : a mix of flesh and metal, the blood is oil, the brain a computer, a hand a cannon...
2-An exoskeleton/suit. You are mounted in it, it functiin with energy and once depleted you are ejected. Not like aqura elite.. think more of jahai DERV. Can also be you sit in it to increase force and use martial skills, not necessarely full golem golem.
3-Like metroid and samus aran? You equip the suit from time to time for boons or special skill that can charge to deliver a blast?
4-And what if the icon isn't a golem but a person under steroid? Like, you self injectcjade energy to become hulk?

More cultural armors. Just. That. Please. I want so much that to happens in the near future.
I redirect you to that awesome post someone made on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/pwvz7j/what_i_want_most_out_of_the_expansion_is_tier_4/
If I have to quote, what makes my character of any race stands out, creating a kind of aura, is the fact I can mix regular sets of armors with the cultural sets. It adds something, it makes it feels like your character has a lore/background behind it; all the ones we have currently are very cool, and like dungeon armors those cultural armors play well their roles.
I have currently 3500 gems. And yup, nothing on gemstore is interesting. Everything bland and boring. Like, could you make more mail carriers? Those feels forgotten while you can make racial one: A tiny golem, a sylvari pup, a charr legionnaire, seraphin or a wolf bringing you your letter, that would be interesting. You know, even, an awakened bringing you a letter? This can be cool. So far, i read the wiki, and what? They are all just flying animal? (well, apart some) I will definitely spend 1200 gems to get the exo suit-skyscale skin once it is released but after? May just keep them, doing nothing with them... There are so much potential like mordant crescent outfit, joko outfit? With incoming EOD, there could even be a ministry of purity or a particular special new aetherblade one.
If you add cultural armors, like add a tier 4 - 5 - 6, for each race for a pouch of gold coins (randomly, what, 40g 50g 60g?), at least, I would be pushed/Inclined to convert my gems into gold coins to buy them, spending them! Don't think about putting them at 250g like runic armors, those (to me) looks bad in addition of being expensive, will never buy them, letting the blacksmith rot in eotn. Some of those new cultural armors may need to be designed, but many are actually already in your game, on npcs: To cite some: Krewe Leader Ambr armor / Noble of Divinity reach / Some sylvari civilians / Norn sharmans and so on. Don't get me wrong, I AM VERY GRATEFUL FOR RAVEN ARMOR AND ICE REAVER CHARR ARMOR BUT OTHER RACES NEED SOME TOO.
Speaking of armors, I have MORE THAN ENOUGH that for MEDIUM, the CHEST ARMOR IS STICKED TO PANTS ARMOR. It ruins customization. Can't you separate all the medium armors skins like a chest and a pant like other weights? Instead of forcing me to just have 30 choices of trenchcoats? What an irony, medium classes are my favourites but they are the ones with the worst customization. Please do something. Dunno why it is still like this, medium weight should work like light or heavy, you customize Chest and Pants not only chest -.- .
Recently, though a stream or a blogpost, you said, new customization for hairstyles/faces is coming this winter. Impatient to see them. Really, because makeover options are a real plus that makes your character fun in addition of the good armor sets combinations.

Doing disrupting brandstorm events that are composed of escort - build first disruptor - move - build second disruptor and all of those count as 0 for "Local Response: Dragonfall" is annoying, they should count.
Beat the champion arbitrer of dead event it count as event but not "Revenge of the champions: Dragonfall" what the skritt us that? If for this one, you don't mean champion foes around the map but the three ones during battle of kralkatorrik, then, you should rename the achievement! Because in this case, totally wrong and it push players into the mistake! Rename it "revenges of kralkatorrik lieutnents" with a tick from riftstalker , the hedgehog thing and o don't even remember third one.
Really annoying when achievement states clearly just champion level or events and to find out some of events or champions don't count!

I will say the same as what I complained about with ele: Speed.
Skills too long to cast, a real pain. The damage is ok, the skill appearance? Really meh. Feels like it copy pasted skills from the weapons rev currently use. Skill 2 feel like mace lol. Utilities and elite on the contrary are cool.
Frankly, to me the worst of the trio spec of today. Why?
Warrior is fun, fast paced, interesting theme, cool animation, good damage. It has 5 stars.
Ele is fun, interesting theme, cool animation, but septic about damage efficiency and fast paced. 3 stars.
And rev, it has nothing apart eventually interesting theme. 1 star. Skills are copy pasted feom core rev. And that elite actually feel weaker than core rev, i mean what? Lol even my renegade is better! Here, no real fun. Sad,
TLDR anet: faster skills,less cast time. Unique skills,not copy pasted.

So I tested it, overall it feels nice, it is fun playing it, killed some vetteran karkas is southsun with it. Jade sphere requiring elemental energy to function is an interesting concept, through i feels like it fills too slowly.
Speaking of speed, I am sorry but even my scrapper hexa is faster with her hammer! The cast time is too long for any skills apart the 3 skills. 1 is the auto skill, and the casting of it is so long, oh god! Take earth 2 as example, it prevents you to use any skills and is long to use, big oof.
Really Anet, all hammer skills shpuld be as fast as fire 3/earth 3/air 3/water 3. It feels like my character is strugling to use any of the skills and it ruins the feels of speed, power or of a dynamic battle. At this point I am mitigated, prefering maybe to keep my weaver which is faster in term of skill cast.
Also longer skills don't feels more powerful than short one, as i said, earth 2, but also fire 5, air 2, water 5. Those four are long and feels useless, wasting your time where some other are faster and more efficient. Btw coukd you redo either air 2 or earth 2? Those two feel like it is same skill, just copy pasted.
To end, healing skill feel like the worst i ever seen, prefer the good old glyph of elemental harmony or signet of restoration.
What about utilities? Imho, disapointment. They are useless, to say, currently playing with arxane wave - signet of air and the two elemental summoning glyphs instead of your new eod ones. You should redo the utilities. Maybe 4 skills related to the jade sphere in complement of the one that change with attunement? Jade sphere feels not enough present definitely.
Combos are rares, where are they?
Also permit the 16 hammer skills, only one give boons, fire 5, i mean, what the skritt? There is an issue there!
But yeah, TLDR anet: for all hammers skills apart the ones in "3" slot, divide cast time by at least two. Also reduce recharge time too, it slows rotation, I can spam all skills of four ekements then return to my first element and still see half the skills recharging, this is not normal.
That's it, thanks, very cool and fun spec Anet, but still need some tweaks, hammer feel slow and clunky, slower than my quickness scramper which is faster. Ele is a kind of fast paced combat style, it feels so wrong, reduce CDs and Cast times.
I would at this point, prefer that hammer is removed from ele and replaced by rifle or longbow to have a range and fast paced spec.

This spec awesome. Here, well, nothing to be angry against. Very great job anet, my feel but this second round of specs feels better than first. I line utilities that are kind of holo barriers and a mine, remind me of engie. Definitely gonna create a character in eid for that specialization.
All the skills animations looks cool, the comvat geels dynamic. The skills have trails kinda like holosmith, i am in love. My warrior is happy and will get an eod upgrade.
My only nitpick would be about the gunblade that cannot have its skin changed. I am thinking, could we have a third weapon duo set in hero equipment pannel? Like, we select a sword skill and a pistol one and the game render the pistol put on the blade? Maybe this is not possible, in this case no worries I love the gunblade look anyway.
That's it. ;D impatient to discover what you have in store for the three remaining specs. Especially engie, cause, well, i m 9 yeaes engie main. Cya, going to try ele, i mean catalyst and add its feedback.

/shrug better be good during beta. But wanted a longbow or rifle with attenued bullets here, sad. Useless, not even throwable floaty ball too.

Frankly, just wanted a longbow or rifle. Keep the name catalyst. Lore/explanation? You use quartz and charge it with cantha cardinals aka tortoise/phoenix/dragon/kirin or if you prefer earth/fire/water/air , put in on your bow/rifle and boom. (More longbow here, but rifle can be cool too).
In all possible choices, didn't expected ele, and more than all, didn't expected hammer. Especially after tzasing us that much with that floating orb, that is in fact nothing, like utility gyro. Not even punched toward foes. A pure waste, at this point, feels like the elite designers don't even do efforts. All the specs are melee, it is hard to give a ranged one? I bet all the specs trailers are in fact, already recorded, uploaded on youtube, and unlocked themselves the day that was programmed. At this point nothing will be changed sadly. I bet even engie trailer is already done and really hope it is a cool espec, not just another kit.
In the last round of specs, only liked warrior but it is because it has attack effects reminding me holosmith. In the first one, only harbringer. 2/6. But I expect a lot from round three, because I really need the three remaining ones to be cool. Especially ranger cause i hate druid, and not fan of soulbeast, currently playing core.
That new ele spec feels like a copy pasta of scrapper: wells, hammer, aoes, melee, useless floating thing near you. It is just that instead of using magnetism, you use elements. Very sad.

Does the new Engineer spec mechanic was shown during today shing jea stream? [Spoilers?]
in Engineer
Posted
https://imgur.com/VWVNKNi
In the training area, one of the trainers isn't human.
It is a floating construct with not all its parts linked together (remind yao arm with different parts able to communicate without being linked?), it is named "Mech" and its way of speaking is kind of like an asura golem but more fluid.
That mech seems to have some skills, but the only shown here is ability to generate a jade force field.
Maybe reading to much into it, but I can perfectly see the engineer summon that mech as minion and order it to deploy its jade force field to defend or maybe support and offensive skills to complete that. Maybe engie could summon several of them?
Just a thought after today stream.
