Guild Wars 2

I understand siege’s lasting for two weeks and in history over two years but they would be from the outside. Will the new patch hit again in two weeks? or will we still be pulling survivors out of Lion’s Arch because unless they are going to turn into the Ascalonian Ghosts’s then, They are pretty much dead.

I mean, it will be pretty cool if we had the same thing as Ascalon where we have the dead of Lion’s Arch roaming around and but having them as allies to fight back against Scarlet.

I only put this here because it has been bugging me for a couple days.

(Also my prediction is Scarlet nukes Lion’s Arch with all her allies in it, killing the majority of the armies. Then what she finds, kills her.)

I think it’s more like “it lasts 2 weeks so everyone gets a chance to play it” the actual attack only happens once imo.

Yeah I’d go with this.

Otherwise you start running into questions of, “so if that Miasma kills everyone, how come there are still so many survivors when we go back in?”

Just assume that, as far as the story is concerned, going in to rescue civilians happens only the once. When the Miasma hits, everyone left inside is dead leading up to the next part of the story.

Lorewise it only happens once, in the refugee camp in the vigil keep there are several things that reference things that happen inside Lion’s Arch as something in the past, for example, Lawson Marriner has to be escorted out of LA, and he is in the refugee camp thanking you for your help, also Evon is there taking his dolyaks with merchandise to the working asura gate (and shutting it down behind him leaving a member of the council and several civilians stranded), and he is on the refugee camp selling wares with his dolyaks behind him, just to name a few.

It’s kinda like with scarlet’s funhouse during the watchwork chaos, you could repeat the funhouse as many times as you wanted, but that didn’t mean that lorewise scarlet kept coming back after going away at the end and capturing Lord Faren over and over to torture him and his speedos..

The chronological order (at least the way I see it) is first the attack (cutscene), then we enter into LA with all the other living story characters to help get the people out until the miasma builds up, then everything that happens on the refugee camps. At this point the miasma is probably too thick to go back into LA.

My guess is that the next step will be the creation of some device, kinda like the air filtration devices during the tower of nightmare, that will allow us to get back in.

Actually.. I believe the next step is that whatever is under Lions Arch is coming up to the surface and THAT is what will happen next patch.

This will cause the Miasma to leave as Scarlet will have no further use of it.
