Guild Wars 2

The top of the top of the clocktower contains a hidden message.

Okay everyone, I really wanted to figure it out on my own but I simply cannot translate this barely readable New Krytan text embossed on the bell of the Mad King’s Clocktower. I was able to decode certain characters in the message but not the whole thing.

You need to go up there and see it for yourself. I have a screenshot to prove it’s there but it will not be sufficient to translate the text. After reaching the top of the clock tower where the chest is, you can go a bit higher to the bell by jumping onto the exit door and then jumping towards the face of the clock (where a ledge is) WITH A SPEED BOON. The way to the bell will be self explanatory the rest of the way.

Oh, and this will help: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/New_Krytan

Good luck.

Gah! I didn’t even look to see that in there. That’s going to drive me nuts. Having come from ‘The Secret World’ I have this compulsion to translate pretty much everything I come across.

Unfortunately I won’t be able to get in game for another 12 or so hours. Leaves me 4 hours or so to get back up to the top of that clocktower so I can actually see the thing. :\

I could not for the life of me get up to that bell last night. I tried and tried, but even with a speed boost I could not get from the top of the door to any ledge in any direction.

So that’s what the whole thing looks like.

Yeah, it seems that most people would not bother to look for any hidden secrets after completing such a challenging puzzle. They would just be glad to get the chest and get the heck out of there! haha.

I could make a video of the bell but I do not have any recording software, any recommendations?

I got “TIR_AH WANTS A CHEESEBURGER” not sure about the 4th letter in the first word but the rest is accurate.

I think the 4th letter is a Z not sure about that one letter though.
“TIRZAH WANTS A CHEESEBURGER”

I think the 4th letter is a Z not sure about that one letter though.
“TIRZAH WANTS A CHEESEBURGER”

Nice! That’s a much clearer picture. I think you’re right.

Would make sense, though, if it’s referring to Tirzah Bauer, who happens to be an Environment Artist for GW2. :P

I wasn’t familiar with that name but if that’s true then it makes sense now lol.

Yep!

The lovely young lady in the picture below is Tirzah Bauer.

Now look at that and tell me that isn’t the face of someone who desperately needs a cheeseburger!

I did this a few days ago , honestly only reason i found this was cause the Anet guy with me pointed it out for me, then i asked both for help ingame and on the forums to put the message together and check it.

it is amazing the stuff they add hidden on this game XD

I want one of them shirts.

Awesome! I wonder how you got the text to be so clear, maybe my graphics settings were too high with all the fancy lighting and whatnot.

Lol someone send that woman a cheeseburger. Oh..also, if she’s the one environment artist (or one of them) for GW2, I wonder if she’s also the one responsible for the I CAN HAZ CHEEZBURGER cats all over Tyria? If so, then major kudos to her.

Yeah I put everything on low settings except Texture (it was on high); made it really clear.
