So, playing through the main personal story Trahearne places Caladbolg in the artesian waters to purify Orr, yet in the HoT story we get an item that is a broken Caladbolg. So are we safe to assume that Orr is purified? Since Trahearne said he did need to leave it behind until the place was purified iirc.

Don’t see how this is a discontinuity. We saw him wielding Caladbolg in S2, and even then 2 years had passed since the fight with Zhaitan.

Edit: And the Orr maps are stuck in time to before Zhaitan’s death, so it wouldn’t show.

Dear ANet writers,
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.

Well I know that they are stuck in time, but since he was wielding Caladbolg in S2, does that mean that Orr is fully cleansed lore-wise? Because we have been given no snippets on how Orr is doing since we have defeated Zhaitan so I was just wondering.

Lore-wise I think Orr is mostly done being cleansed, with remaining undead being mopped up by the pact. We haven’t really had anything indicating otherwise, that I know of.

Slightly off topic, I hope we get to repair Caladbolg and use it as GS skin :P

If I remember correctly they did mention in some thread that Mordremoths vines actually spread to Orr as well. So lore-wise his vines are now there. Or were… considering the ending of the HoT story.

Some people actually speculated that by cleansing Orr we allowed Mordremoth instantly to take it. Cause in the cinematic where Trahearne cleanses Orr we see vines coming out of the well. Mordremoths vines?

You’re assuming that the sword had to stay there until Orr was cleansed. Maybe it’s like a lock and key, the key doesn’t have to be in the lock for the lock to be unlocked.

I think that was all merely speculation though.
