Q:

I’m worried that some of the dynamic events or other content might be changed or removed. With roughly a week to go before this update is applied, can we get a heads up if this is the case?

Will this change the Defeat the Claw of Jormag DE? What about the other zones in the north?

Please let confirm any potential changes or content removal as I would rather prioritize exploring this content before it changes rather than WvW, fractals, etc if this is indeed the case. If I can get a confirmation that only new events will be added and that no changes to existing content is the case, then that would ease my concerns and I could continue completing the monthly.

And that’s a bad thing how? In my opinion what could happen is that there would eventually be two new elder dragons coming out to fight us, but before that a lot of zones will get messed up by them. If anything I can’t wait to see the change.

I am not complaining about change and yes, another dragon or two would be awesome; however, I AM inquiring as to whether any content will be removed or changed (even if it is to reappear at a later date months down the road) that I may want to experience now prior to its removal/revamp. If the new content will take place around it, then awesome, I have no worries. If other events will need to be revamped/removed for the new content, then I would like to know so that I can re-prioritize my plans in game so that I can go experience those events prior to said change.

My desire to to know of any changes does not mean I have any dislike for said change. I simply want to be informed is all.

Fair enough. I don’t think that people know what will change though and I don’t think that the developers will give out the secret. To be on the safe side play trough all charr and norn zones? Those are the only places that can change. Though in my opinion only the starter zones will change, because both of them are mentioned.

I don’t think they are going to remove any content. I don’t see why would they do that? One of the developers did say they are adding new content to make it interesting for older players that are revisiting old areas for the new laurel achievement thing, though.

Why would they remove content that they worked so hard to make? If anything, they add to it..

From what I can gather nothing will be removed. DEs will end with a boss that has new mechanics and will be part of the dailies and the monthly from Feb onwards.

Actually developers in the past have said that there would be Dynamic Events that they would bring in and out of the game, so yes it is possible they would take out content, but bring it back at some other time.

So I wouldn’t worry about them taking out content, cause they’ll bring it back some time in the future. Honestly I think it is a great idea to bring in and out content, that way it can make the zones different with other characters.

Why in the multi-kitten world would they remove Dynamic Events when this game is promoted and advertised based on Dynamic Events as it’s selling point??

They wouldn’t remove all dynamic events, but there would be dynamic events they would take out, and replace them with something different. This is what the developers have said in the past they would do to help with keeping the zones a little more fresh and more interesting to level in.

Well, if you want to be safe, focus on the two zones actually mentioned in the post.. ie: Diessa Plateau and Wayfarer Foothills

Charr and norn refugees crawl from the wreckage of their homes in the Wayfarer Foothills and Diessa Plateau, struggling to find shelter in the south.

GrandmaFunk, while I would still like a confirmation as to any changes that might potentially permanently change, displace current events, I thank you for redrawing my eyes to the above quoted line. For some reason, I read “struggling to find shelter in the south” thinking that other zones north of Wayfarer and Diessa would also be affected.

Wayfarer Foothills?

They’re obviously getting rid of the Frozen Maw chain everyone’s farming.

My only concerns are that I still have to wait for the update, and I don’t know any specifics of what’s happening to zones, events, gameplay, etc. All the concrete info we have is on achievements and gem shop items. :P
