ArenaNet Staff Popular Post Rubi Bayer.8493 Posted April 1, 2022 ArenaNet Staff Popular Post Share Posted April 1, 2022 04/01/2022—April 1 Release Notes Living World With the End of Dragons, it's a time for new beginnings. We've been carefully watching your feedback over the past weeks, years, and decades, and we're making a big change: out with cat jokes, in with dog jokes. Look forward to more dogs, more chances to pet dogs, and as much canine humor as you can throw a stick to. (Maybe some cats though; it's hard to break habits.) World Polish Players will now be required to submit an authorization-of-access form to the Ministry of Transit before using a waypoint to, from, or within Canthan regions. Fixed a bug that caused the open-world boss of the final encounter of the Jade Sea open-world meta-event to use Breath of the Deep more frequently than intended in rare circumstances. Fixed an outcropping of land that was unintentionally killing players in Super Adventure Box's Tribulation Mode. We know, "how would someone even have known the difference?" Due to all interactable objects in the area being knocked into the sea, Cat Island has been renamed Cat Archipelago. Okay, that was a cat joke. We're really trying though. All ambient music has been replaced by diegetic music, played by nearby bands, characters carrying boomboxes, or certain golems and mechs. General Player characters now express voiced approval or dislike of the taste of consumable items. Your unique food preferences are based on your choices in character creation and the personal story. Added fishing locations in the River of Souls. Fixed a typo in the Skiff Piloting Mastery track. This will now be Skritt Piloting as intended. Fixed a bug that caused consumables vendors to offer asura items from their "Just For Kids!" menus. Specific wiseguys may still present this option sarcastically. Added The fix for this update note will be coming in the next update notes. A future announcement will reveal the trailer release date for upcoming update notes. Due to the timing of the current update notes, we'd like to apologize for our inability to announce them ahead of time. Fractals Fixed a bug that enabled individuals to kill alternate versions of themselves and loot their own bodies more than once. Personal Story NPCs will now nudge the commander and wink when the player encounters foreshadowing. Players who are found to have submitted inaccurate information on their Ministry of Transit travel documents will be assessed a fine. Items Certain consumables created by chefs now require the consuming player to accept the crafter's cookie policy. With the reestablishment of trade with Cantha, Tyrian merchants across the continent are adjusting their prices to compete in a global market. Added new jade bot modules for automatically correcting armor dyes, cleaning the home instance, and gaining spontaneous self-awareness. Added nutrition facts to all consumable items. Players can now get a Turtle Egg by really, really wanting one and promising to take good care of it. Corrected a texture stretching issue affecting the art of Invisible Slippers, Invisible Stompers, and Invisible Boots. Profession Skills Elementalist The Ministry of Public Safety would like to firmly remind all elementalists who refuse to switch off of fire attunement that arson is classed as a felony under Imperial law. Fixed a bug that prevented quickly drawing and stowing fishing poles from being used in weaver skill rotations. Engineer To resolve purpose overlap between the mechanist and golemancer specializations, mechanists will now need to periodically refuel their golem big robot. Holosmiths are being actively recruited by Xunlai Jade. Speak to your local representative to learn more about this exciting opportunity. Guardian With the End of Dragons, users of the dragonhunter specialization have been retired. Selecting dragonhunter will now unlock a relaxing new set of skills, allowing the player to immerse themselves into life as a retiree. "Advance!" unrenamed to "Retreat!" to better reflect ideal usage of the skill. Mesmer Clones now have a passive skill to vote which one they think is the real one. Fixed a bug that caused the skills Chaos Armor, Chaos Storm, and Winds of Chaos to behave predictably. Necromancer Gaining life force or using elixirs will now trigger taste-based approval or disapproval lines, depending on the source's attributes and character's taste preferences. Harbingers using elixir skills in open-world maps will now have a scaling chance to receive littering notices and/or fines. Ranger Bear pets can now be set to Fishing mode. Druids can now walk into the uncharted deep forests of the Echovald Wilds, never to return, as a special action skill. The Return to Me command now only affects feline pets if you have treats. Our bad, that could have been a dog joke if we had tried. This is all new and confusing, please give us some time. Revenant Fixed an issue that could cause vindicators to not return from their dodge-leap. Affected vindicators should return to the ground any moment now. In retrospect, Shiro Tagachi is starting to feel like he was a victim of numerous factors outside of his control and could use some time to unpack all of this. Thief Using Steal on a character with dye items in their inventory will now automatically apply the dyes to your character. After a further review of the player's record, authorities in Cantha have requested the player return to Seitung Prison for questioning. Warrior Warriors will now be able to maintain a balanced diet by tracking their intake of foods based on their nutrition facts, exercise regimen, and adventuring goals. Bladesworn characters will now begin playing their theme song when reduced to below half health. World vs. World New options for victory conditions have been added. In addition to War Score, players can win skirmishes through Science Score, Culture Score, or Diplomacy Score. Fixed a bug that caused warclaws to sometimes run around Stonemist Castle in a panic even though you didn't hear anything. Another cat joke. Why is this so difficult. We're going to put these pet jokes on paws for meow and hope to impurrove in future update notes. That just slipped out, we're so sorry. Stonemist Castle has been replaced by the Harvest Temple. BLACK LION TRADING COMPANY GEM STORE Fixed an item erroneously listed as [REDACTED] Dye. It is now properly available as The Final Encounter of the Jade Sea Open-World Meta-Event Dye. Added a skill to the Pet Dog Whistle - Basenji to allow players to try to figure out what their basenji is gnawing on and try to gently wrestle a nonedible Junk Item from its mouth. Nailed it. 28 9 253 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
