Siege Turtles (GW2 Era)

[EdwinLi.1284]

A small lore about how we will obtain a Siege Turtle mount in EoD.

Basically, we will have to raise the turtle from hatchling to a adult. He or she will be given the latest jade tech technology for their siege gear and pilot seat. 

Beyond this, what do you think lore wise will the Siege turtle go in EoD. From the looks of things, Siege Turtles maybe the standard light tank for the current Canthan government.

We'll have to wait and see.

 

How much lore can you revolve around turtles that went from having flappers to feet, they walk now instead of crawling... and now have cannons instead of mortar?

I'm guessing the Canthan government, or whoever those tattooed villain-looking guys in the Jade Sea trailer are, took control of Gyala and the other formerly Luxon hatcheries and are using them to produce siege turtles for their own purposes (whatever those may be). Other than that, there's too little info atm to speculate much, escpecially since the Jade Sea (where the turtles are likely born) is mostly being kept under wraps.

The change in the turtles physical appearance is most likely due to the change in art style from GW1 to GW2, but the change in the turtles armaments while have to do with the in universe advancements of technology.

Can I just hatch my turle and leave it without some ugly pilot seat transforming it to an cyberpunk laser ufo?
