From patch notes: “Magic energy has been surging around the ley lines.”

Living story 3?

Interesting.

Check this out.

Dulfy has a guide to the related events.

Not to be demeaning but in this case the whole “Dulfy has a guide” is just taking the fun out of it.

I would strongly advise to explore this naturally rather than by a guide. It’s really not necessary.

To start the little journey: Begin by killing dragon minions and work from there. It literally tells itself.

I believe it’s a prologue to the upcoming Season 3. Pretty easy to complete the achievements. Did them in less than an hour. Hopefully, more carrots to chase in the coming days.

God bless Dulfy!

Really enjoyed those events. I was a bit bemused by the Mastery XP rewards automatically applying to my already maxed XP line. Would have been nice to be able to stash those to use against (presumed) new masteries in the future but I guess in Central Tyria we’re never short of XP.

But, yes. Nice surprise. More please!

I agree… while I won’t complain about more APs, I did feel a little “cheated” on the rewards for the event since I’m maxed on Tyrian masteries. Perhaps ANet will be kind enough to give us some Maguuma-related events. That’s where I could use those XP rewards.

I was hoping to stash mine also as I’m mastery locked now in Tyria. But no, it was automatically applied, and therefore it was a worthless reward for me.

Be careful what you ask for
ANet may give it to you.

Anet already confirmed they are not adding new central tyria lines, like ever. This reward was to give new/slow players a nice buff to help them out.

This is just a small lore/fluff event, it isn’t supposed to pay out amazing rewards.

Yep, a worthless reward to all people who had either completely maxed Tyrian Masteries or to those whose mastery lines were halted but had some Masteries they could still do.

The actual reward is the 1g trash item for completing the achievements. The xp is just a buff for newbies. That’s why you get it before you finish, just like the greens and stuff from the events.

I was simply saying that being able to stash the item would have made it useful to those whose Tyrian mastery lines are halted but had Masteries left to do. It couldn’t have been that difficult to make it an item you hold on to and used later if you can, rather than an reward that’s only useful for some.

Doesn’t that XP already go to an unfilled random line? Or are you saying that you have all your avaliable lines capped out and can’t move on due to mastry points?

In which case I’d say why aren’t you doing stuff that rounds out the mastry points, as at that point all your xp in central tyria is being wasted anyway.

When did they state no more core masteries ever?

I’m slowly working on the HoT Masteries. The few remaining Tyrian ones are ones I’ve tried to get before, but failed to get for various reasons so I’ve put them aside for now to try later. That doesn’t mean that I wouldn’t prefer a reward not to be useless or that I haven’t already posted several times on the forum about exp being wasted if the mastery lines are maxed.

I’d like to see that statement, as well. First I’ve heard tell of it.

There’s a difference between not supposed to be an amazing reward and potentially no reward at all.

This was Anet’s response to COF farm (or something along those lines):

Central Tyria Masteries were designed with older content in mind, how quickly you level and obtain those masteries is your choice.

Judging from the continued presence of that farm, and an impressively fast response (and nerf) of another exploit that was discovered in Heart of Thorns, you can see their intent and shift of focus regarding old content. Sure, its not a black & white “no central masteries ever” answer. Even if they do (or did) respond in such a way, it isnt written in stone; things can change. Take from it what you will.

Be who you are and say what you feel,
because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind

In other words, no such thing was said. Only time will tell.
