Kitty La Boom Boom.4065 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Kitten GENIUS! Well done, Anet. Bravo! There are so many details and features, and so much beauty, personality, and FUN! I hope you'll add 2 week passes for folks to try it out. You can really tell this was a labor of love. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mythical.6315 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 That’s smart of them to create one of these areas to be essentially the size of a guild hall map with some exploration. It’s sure to sell better than the previous iterations. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doggie.3184 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Well worth the gems. Love it, especially as someone who loves everything water themed. 😛 (psst add Male Largos transform ;o) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Telgum.6071 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Outside the jade bot bench and the fishing spots, what does this lounge offers than the Armstice Bastion doesn't? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratnoon.4251 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I liked it a lot myself!! One of the best passes they've added so far. Well worth the 1000 gems, especially if you don't own any passes from previous releases. If your curious to what this place looks like and what it has to offer. I made a video for you all. https://youtu.be/migBx4blFPw 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notebene.3190 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 (edited) Does it have the 'auto return' feature that the Mists has? Edit: Sorry, the 'Mistlock Sanctuary'. That pass has an auto-return. Edited April 5, 2022 by notebene.3190 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, all the basic amenities are on the same floor. It's a circular platform with all the stations in easy view and the fountain in the middle. The Mystic Fountain begs to be jumped into. Its a fun addition. Edited April 5, 2022 by Kitty La Boom Boom.4065 adding 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibson.4036 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 (edited) Too bad there's no way to trade in another pass for a discounted cost. Edited April 5, 2022 by Gibson.4036 8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moose.3491 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 (edited) The fishing supplies vendor in the Thousand Seas Pavilion has an extremely limited stock. He does not sell either of the advanced fishing lures (amber, jade) and his bait supplies are extremely disappointing. For 1000 gems, I would have hoped to find a richer fishing merchant. Is the poor quality of this chap's stock intentional? Additionally, it seems like this map exists in its own demiplane so you cannot access the rest of Tyria by opening the in-game map, unlike the Mistlock Sanctuary. Is this also intentional? It feels pretty bad to lose the map functionality like this. Again, for 1000 gems I would have hoped for more convenience.

So you're saying there is a way to access the world map from the Pavilion? The lack of world map access is the point I'm making. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I do like this lounge, the inability to layer down to go to any particular waypoint does make it less attractive. Quote ...for those who enjoy the ultimate convenience. Not really, is it? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaen.2605 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Long shot, but does the Arborstone rest bonus extend to this area? Would've been a nice tie-in to give it something unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dami.5046 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 (edited) For someone who crafts legendary stuff it's nice to have the dungeon vender, TP , MF and craft stations together, and i''m not running here there and everywhere like other places. 👍 Edited April 5, 2022 by Dami.5046 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I normally try to ignore the confused emojis, but just in case my short post really is confusing: I don't see the need to personally have more than one lounge pass. Yet ArenaNet keeps making them, and some have little QoL improvements over others. I really can't justify spending that much to get another one just for a few improvements over the one I already have. So it would be nice if I could some how turn in mine and get the new one cheaper than full price. ArenaNet would still make more money than they did off my initial purchase, but I wouldn't feel like I'm dishing out the full cost of a pass just to add a jade workbench and a nice beach to my lounge features. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I have Mistlock and Verdent Brink ones and they'll be pretty much a waste of inventory space forever and I'd likely refund them if possible, Fractal Portal isnt a big deal to me; I just liked the return to previous location. I already never used Verdent Brink one anymore outside of a very very rare occasion I make a new character and want to teleport them to silverwaste quickly. It'd be nice to be able to store them in their own UI. (and not an awful one like novelties's) Edited April 5, 2022 by Doggie.3184 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Templar.4589 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Sounds like we cannot access the world map to WP out from the Pavilion? I remember when the Mistlock Sanctuary was first introduced, it had that limitation too, but they soon fixed that so you could select a map layer and then WP out from there. Fingers crossed they'll add that functionality for the Pavilion very soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Red Killian.3946 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 They claim it’s an area in the mists so it doesn’t exist on the main Tyria map. Why do this when you could carve out more of Cantha? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the whole point of this was convenience for fishing. If the fishing merchant doesn’t have the same level as Arborstone’s (with max masteries), then it’s a waste. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugar Min.5834 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 (edited) From the video, thank you Rat, I can see that it is a convenient and beautiful place. I already have 4 lounge passes, is there a reason I should get this one too? I see people in swimsuits on the beaches. Give us a swim wear outfit and i will definitely buy the pass and hang out there during afk time. Otherwise, I'll pass.
