Teletric.3821 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 It's pretty confusing to me: their textures and model are exactly the same, but the story is acting as if Valravyns are a creature we've never seen before. Is it an oversight and they're actually supposed to use a different texture, or is there a piece of lore somewhere that explains or establishes a relation? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually like different regions would have a different name for the same creatures. In the early days of GW2 there were books that referenced a character (can't remember the name now for the life of me) two books in two different places used different spelling for the name, at the time it was reported as a bug and the devs "fixed it" which for me was mildly disappointing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roda.7468 Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 I used to think they called griffons "valravns" too but then an event spawned a harpy and called it a valravn so now i've no idea... Either the kodan don't know they're different creatures, or the quadrupedal animals turn into the bipedal monsters at some point in their life stage (maybe after eating a heart?) or it's like a weird eusocial/queen bee style deal?
