I just came up with this after reading someone else’s post. After blood stone fen players have been seeing the anomalies popping up randomly. Now the one thing we been doing after bloodstone fen explosion is gathering unbound magic uncontrollably. Sound like anything else in the game? Like the minion of the dragons? and the white mantle? O:< we are corrupted! We are gathering magic just like they are!! SO waht do you guys think

Play the most recent current events for the answers to all your questions here. (as far as Current Events have progressed up to now)

in short, we do not yet know what they are, but the blast did corrupt us with magic. The current Current Event had us look for a solution to the visions, and we get help from the Priori or the Consortium for this matter. The event starts by approaching a Anomaly Vision, so next time you see one, run up to him. Just get close for the event to trigger, but be quick as they last only 3-5 seconds.

There’s a popular belief that the choice of asking for the Priori’s or Consortium’s help will affect the next current by a form of popular vote.

Seeing the anomalies appears to be tied to doing the ley anomaly achievements (namely the first one – witnessing a ley anomaly) not the collection of unbound magic. Plenty of people have reported seeing the “sad anomalies” without doing S3, and plenty of folks who did S3E1 have reported not seeing them at all.

We players are not “gathering magic uncontrollably” – we’re actually very controlled in it (most do it only for the daily or vendor items). It’s those caught in the actual blast (the crazed Pact and White Mantle) who are doing so uncontrollably.

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

But we were caught at the edge of the blast rather than in it. Doesn’t that mean we’re more radiation victims than blast victims? Hence we can see the magic and the anomalies in their concentrated/solid forms, but we’re not mentally consumed by the drive to feed on it.

You’re treating magic acting like radiation.

But from testing, folks know the anomaly pops up is not related to doing Episode 1. It’s related to doing the Ley Anomaly event once.
