Guild Wars 2

So I’ve found out that there was a wiki page created for the Living Story Season 2 and
when I read this “Mere moments after Scarlet drew her final breath, the roar of an Elder Dragon was heard across Tyria. The citizens of the world don’t know it yet, but their new threat lies to the west, in Magus Falls.” I started searching around on the wiki.

I came across this page: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Magus_Falls As the pages states Magus Falls existed of “Magus Stones and The Falls” I investigated further and came across the page about Rata Sum: http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Rata_Sum

Now what I’ve noticed and I hope I am right is that I think we are finally getting Polymock!!!! :P

A quick overview of the Polymock Quest Chain states:

Hoff is the champion in Polymock who recides in Rata Sum. He is the last opponent of the Polymock quest chain. Hoff will give your character three Polymock starter pieces so that you may begin playing.

Yes Hoff is ofcourse dead, but it could be that he passed his skills on to his children

So I only just started play GW1 for rewards but this looks entirely fascinating. This is… chess? 3-piece violent chess? It looks fun!

it’s more like pokemon, start out with 3 and, in gw1, running dungeons and beating others to get more, only had a party size of 3. and the polymock arena has been unreachable next to rata sum since the betas.actually for a while i guess people found out how to get outside rata sum, and in the waters below, I guess there was a gate or something to it, that has since been removed, as much as I loved polymock, i think they may have scrapped it.

There was some screenshots posted a couple months back with a dev confirming that it was being worked on.

Really? well that is some great news.

Can you find that link? Would love to see Polymock again

“Being worked on” = We arent committed either way.

I certainly hope they are “working” on other things first….

GW “twitch” pokemon was never much to my liking….

It wasn’t like it was great in GW 1, I only played through it once. Seems odd they made a big deal out of it being in the game before release and now two years later, have never added it.

My issues with the mini-games themselves. We don’t have but limited options and there is no real option to go into them playing with “friends” and not just randoms.

talyn, that is a good point, I saw a ton of potential for keg brawl to be fun, but not being able to play with friends killed it for me. I think polymock could be a two part thing though, going out and collecting pieces, and then battling with them. and it was a 1v1 thing in gw1, and gw2 could introduce player vs player, not just against npcs. I feel though, that if you didn’t go out and get the extra pieces in gw1, it wasn’t worth playing multiple times.

I’d love to see Polymock make a return, with miniatures being used as Polymock pieces.

I’m wondering more on how it would translate over and how much different would it need to warrant it’s existence. How would it differ from our costume brawl?

Yes. It is being worked on. Since before launch, actually.
