Having done the living stories as they’ve been released and now have had my fortnightly PvE feeding sessions ended, its got me thinking about how much I actually enjoyed the content while it was being released. That said, its a shame to see all the hardwork that went into these events just disappear and to never see the surface of light again. Yes, there are the additions to the fractals, but regardless of the matter, its not quite the same. Not sure if these suggestions have been posted somewhere else, but here we go:

Reintroduce a rotating dungeon set-up for the old living story content, that is to say that Molten Forge and Aetherblade Dungeon are brought back on a fortnightly cycle. This can then be expanded into the PvP content by introducing shiny new stuff as well (I’m clueless in the PvP department, but someone said there were lovely new rewards!). This could in addition be linked into the TA aetherblade path as well and provide a bit more variation for the game.

Allow Guild’s to summon 3 more mega events:
- Twisted Marionette (regardless of what anyone says, this is probably the single best addition to the game in the living story world and many players I’ve spoken to agree with this)
- Battle aboard the Breachmaker
- Scarlets Minion invasions to a random map

Now the reason as to why, is that these are great content and they shouldn’t just disappear! By linking it with guilds, will mean that the content is still in the game, but will be limited by when it happens. How will they work in terms of context setting? Well, using the lovely story you’ve set, with the ley-lines tampered with all sorts of events are going out of sync and that some events are engrained in the memory of the place (like an external fractal).

Also, I think that Aspect Arena should be introduced into the Daily Activity Cycle as its a shame that one of the activity events from Bazaar of the Four winds didn’t make the final cut!

Hope that all makes sense and if its been suggested before, then I apologise, but only for enjoying the content enough that it needs to see the light of day again!

What’s good is that they already stated their plans of actually re-introducing the content in some way, they just aren’t yet sure of how to do it.
