A theory about upcoming content

[Fragon.7043]

To be clear my theory goes towards proving that we're getting either any new LW update or a fractal or a new wing, revolved around 1 new mastery or mechanic that mainly concerns water and swimming.

So I can't recall the exact date nor the details of the update but. Before the major update that brought the fractal the shattered observatory we did get a weird change concerning an element of gameplay which was that we could "turn" in the middle of a jump. That was a sneak update so that the low gravity jump works perfectly, please note that the jump update happened before the major new content one.

Now with the latest update we did get a weird change too. Now we've 50% less speed on diving or pulling back to the surface while in water, a major hit for players mobility, isn't this feeling for you like the jump change? Foreshadowing that they will may be implement a water related mechanic on a new wing/fractal. May be mastery?

Anyway, we'll know it pretty soon I guess.

edit: changes are for the skills that we apply on foes/player ennemies, my bad !

I had a theory that the mount bug that started your mount under the ground would mean that we were getting Dredge mounts sometime in the future /s

Oh, I thought that applied to the skills that made foes sink, etc. Hmm.

Yeah, it's not general movement, it's the Float and Sink CC-forms that was affected.

Fixed a bug in which players could be launched into outer space when gliding into an updraft in the "Hearts and Minds" chapter of Heart of Thorns.

This is clearly a sign that the next chapter will be in outer space! I think Arenanet is taken over by Elon Musk!!
