Before the start of the Living world season three, I’ve been wondering about the maps we could soon see. A strange area in Maguuma caught my eye – somehow it’s special, here’s why:

  • The left arrow shows a connection inside the Cavern of the Shining Lights in Dry Top. The way is blocked by a wall, but you can see that this is not the end.
  • The arrow on the right indicates the direction of the portal in Tangle Root (Brisban Wildlands). If you stand in front of the portal, it points towards the unknown map. You can actually see a small part of it being revealed on the map. But for some reason, the portal leads you to a completely different place -> Dry Top. According to the position of the portal, this map could have been there before Dry Top was released – eventually leading into the Cavern of the Shining Lights.
  • On the western side, there’s Rata Novus. Could the map reveal even more about the asuran legacy? Could it lead deeper into a greater structure of abandoned cities? Rata Novus could be just a small part of it – I’d love to discover more.

What are your thoughts and ideas to this area? When could we eventually deal with it?

It would be cool if Malyck would appear somewhere there.

Maybe there will be tunnels left over from Rata Novus, or more research centers. Total shot in the dark but I want them to have a place similar to the Infinite Coil Reactor in Mount Maelstrom- where the Inquest study dragon minions. Rata Novans have SO much research on the dragons it’d be cool if they had a place to observe the minions

I could be wrong, but I think that’s where the Druids lived. Or part of it.

That area was Dry Top, Tangle Root and unexplorable in Guild Wars 1. I’d love to see it again but my guess is that any new maps we get this LS will be more Fire Island chain maps.

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

I reckon more likely we could end up with a krytan or shiverpeaks map getting added next, we have good reason to go to both places (caudecus and that faction of the white mantle | the shiverpeaks bloodstone, thunderhead keep, braham, jormag).

The only reason that would necessitate another ring of fire map coming straight away would be to show even more focus on primordus but it doesnt feel to me like the story is going towards that angle of fighting just a single dragon

Most wanted in game additions: Beastiary, readable books

There’s also enough room in there for a raid wing, maybe two. I’m not eager to see that happen, but it is certainly possible.
