Guild Wars 2

Hi all!

I just completed the “Reunion” of Destiny’s Edge for the 5th time, and every time when Eir Stegalkin says: “I fear this meeting was a mistake, but maybe i can fix it.” i’ve wondered what she meant. I’ve completed the personal story on my main, and on my 2 other characters at 80, i’m almost done, but i haven’t heard anything about Eir’s “Fix”. Can anyone tell me what she wanted to fix and how she wanted to do it?

Thank you in advance!

Okay, thank you! I’ve just started doing dungeons so that shouldn’t be a problem

Have a nice day!

It’s a pity core storylines require grouping, Turbine have the right idea about this.

Also, the intended order to play the dungeon storylines is:

1. Ascalon Catacombs (where you find out about Eir’s idea)
2. Caudecus’s Manor
3. Twilight Arbor
4. Sorrow’s Embrace
5. Citadel of Flames
6. Honor of the Waves
7. Crucible of Eternity
8. The Ruined City of Arah

If you play them out of order, you might miss some of the motivations for some of the Destiny’s Edge members in the later parts.

Level 67 and I haven’t even stepped foot in a dungeon yet. The lack of any LFG mechanic and inability to easily search for people my level, or even let people know I am interested, makes dungeons near impossible.

I tried spamming in Lions Arch for about an hour, but honestly, tedious spamming with no returns isn’t really a good alternative to implementing such an important system.

And that was one of the problems with the Personal Story. If the story of Destiny’s Edge was going to be so relevant to the Personal Story then it should have remained as part of the Personal Story. In point of the fact, the culimination of Act 1 is going to meet Destiny’s Edge to try getting them to help stop Zhaitain and during this quest Destiny’s Edge falls apart and the story basically says that it will be the player’s job to get Destiny’s Edge back together. But then for no adequately explain reason the personal story completely forgets about the end of Act 1 and immediately sends the player to military school at one of Orders for some of the most pointless filler material I have seen outside of Bleach or Naruto that was nothing more than a huge deviation of the storyline up to that point in time.

For the storyline to be consistent either the player should have been working towards getting Destiny’s Edge back together or should have kept on working with the representatives of ALL the orders to figure out a plan for stopping Zhaitain. Making the player go from seeing Destiny’s Edge fall apart with the suggestion that they are the only one who can bring it back together to joining an order was completely discontinuous and bad storytelling.

Furthermore, this created a huge discontinuity problem with the last quest. When the player finishes the second to last personal story, they and the rest of the Pact are getting ready to board the airships in order to fight Zhaitain in the air. Then for some completely unexplainable region they descend into a cave in the middle of nowhere where they meet Destiny’s Edge (who according to the Personal Story had broken up and never got back together). But if they were getting ready to board an airship to face Zhaitain why did they descend into a random cave in the middle of nowhere? Furthermore why was Destiny’s Edge in a cave in the middle of nowhere? The whole thing made absolutely no sense. I am not even going to address the utter ridiculousness of leaving Logan behind instead of just cutting the ropes from the airship while on the airship and then having Logan pull a magical airship out of his kitten and magically catch up to you at the very last second (honestly I am getting pretty sick and tired of everything always being at the last second. Can’t we just have a nice and clean war where everything necessarily falls into place naturally like a well orchestrated battle or symphony?)

Either the personal story should have left Destiny’s Edge out completely or should have had the player working on restoring Destiny’s Edge instead of becoming the pack mule for an order.
