Guild Wars 2

Before LW S3 launched, Scholar Geneeve would deliver her line “You look like you could handle some drakes” what seemed like every time one entered the waypoint. When S3 launched last week, that behavior seemed to be removed. I never heard her say that line for a week. Now, i find that she says the line 1/3 to 1/2 the time someone enters the area.

It was really, really nice having a break from her saying that line, especially since that area is such a heavily travelled one due to farming. For me, it was one of the best QoL improvements in the patch.

I’m wondering if you would consider removing that line and adding an orange star icon over her head to denote that she has an event we can start. Hearing her say that at least once per character when i’m running all my toons through there one after another, has become very grating.

She doesn’t start the event, though. She’s just a “herald” character, an NPC who calls your attention to an event already in-progress elsewhere.

What Electro said. She’s there to direct you to an event that’s already been started. So yeah, it can get annoying, but she does serve a purpose.

You can make her stop by completing the event.

Again?

There’s also that little nob on your speakers. Turning it to the left often helps.

Ah, i see. Does it ever end if no one engages with it or does it stay active indefinitely if left alone?

That event doesn’t have a timer, so it just stays up until someone does it.
