Guild Wars 2

Let’s do not.
There aremany threads allready bout this subject and the consensus is that it is very very very unlikely. The reason is that an Elder dragon does two things.
a: make minions (corrupting others). Though the pale tree grow’s sylvari. Sylvari are not anything like a mindless minion. They are sentient beings that can think and act on their own.
b: consumes magic. There is no sign whatsover the pale tree does that.

I think this makes the 12th thread on this. Searching “Pale Tree Elder Dragon” gave me this and this right away. Please, for the love of god people, use search. It’s not that hard, even if it only shows 3 months worth of posts.

The Pale Tree is not an Elder Dragon. It is not a champion either. To add onto what mercury said:

c. Dragon minions can be corrupted by others – as shown in Crucible of Eternity (story and explorable) via Kudu, Kudu’s Monster, and Subject Alpha. We don’t see this occurring in the open world because dragon minions don’t interact (yet). Sylvari cannot be corrupted.

d. Malyck proves the NC notion of sylvari’s natural state being violent beings wrong. Thus, not only do they have free will, but they’re more kind than not – unlike the Elder Dragon minions.

Is the Pale Tree an Elder Dragon…?

The Pale Tree is a….. wait for it… tree. A huge magical tree.

The Pale Tree is the source of all of Tyria’s (the continent, at least) seasonal allergy problems. Unless there’s an Elder dragon associated with that, it’s not likely.

You, sir, deserve a medal for this ^^.
