Guild Wars 2

Hello everyone,

I’m very excited with the addition of Ascended Trinkets being available as rewards in the new Living Story Season 2, specially with their neat Attribute combinations and the names.

I noticed however, that both the Episode 1 Forgotten Band and the newest episode, Epidose 5, Caithe’s Blossom have the same artwork and are the same icon. The background on each is colored different, but the image representing the item, sort of a twisted spiny vine forming a band with a crown of golden spines at the center rim with purple energy is the same for both.

The Forgotten Band is viewed from a central normal viewpoint, whereas Caithe’s Blossom is seen facing downwards and in a sort of diagonal pose.

These items both share the same artwork, and my question is, why?

Isn’t the “Forgotten Band” tied to The Forgotten at all? And Caithe’s Blossom should be a blossom in fact? Or is the “Forgotten Band” simply just that, a band that got forgotten and left there, and we got to pick it up, turns out that later we discover it’s Caithe’s Blossom, or are the artwork on both items simply “recycled” and “copy-paste”?

I think you know the answer to that.

My intention is not to sound cynical or to insult you…
However this is a really silly complaint, and ultimately well I have nothing to add…
