Centaur race as new playable race confirmed? :-D

Interesting… is this at the first wp in dry top?

No, it’s the Prosperity Waypoint.

I heard that if you feed him that you get a precursor. I wonder what’s lying around in Prosperity that you can give him.

feed him the chicken feed

Related to chickens, what’s with the pair of chickens stuck in the wall some 20m above ground level between the town and mine? I haven’t noticed them before.. has anybody else seen them?

I bugged up and fell under the terrain the other day and “swam” over to the new locked area and ended up climbing up to him/her. It’s a rather small centaur compared to others of its species.

I think he is smaller for perspective reasons for far away viewing. I don’t think he’s actually small, you just aren’t supposed to be that close lol.

I still can’t see him :o

of course not!! -.-

zentaurs as mounts confirmed!! : DD

He’s the same size as all the other centaurs. Someone was porting the other day and nothing had changed.

Don’t know if this is new but this centaur in question does use emotes. Do other centaurs ingame use the sit emote?

Cheers,
Nassaya.

Yes. Some other centaurs do use the sit emote when idling.
It’s a cheap thrill to sneak up on them and poke them while they’re sitting down on the job.

dude…

I would have say it might be Mr. E (Mr. Ed?.. .Mr. Equine?) if it wasn’t that because of the short story, chances are E is either a human, sylvari or rather short norn.

Unless it happens that Mr. E isn’t a single person in the first place.

“Mr. Exposition” has long been a term for an individual that only exists for exactly what the name portrays, which is exactly the role this mysterious Mr. E performs within the game. Mr. E is likely not even an actual character in the game that we will ever see and is just a tool the designers use for, well, exposition.

http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MrExposition

A character whose purpose is to provide “infodumps” and explain the plot. Ostensibly, this is for the benefit of the protagonists, but most of the time their real reason for existing is to provide exposition to the audience.

Yeah. :\ Pretty disappointing, really. They probably thought they were being witty or that it would be seen as funny and creative or something and did not expect people to actually write pages of theories on who it was or how they tied into the ongoing plot of the game.

Could it be this Mr. E?

Ahem, Mr.E is confirmed to be revealed this season. That means he’s an actual character.

Confirmed? Would you mind also providing a link to an in-game citation for this “confirmation” that who Mr. E is will be revealed this season?
An out-of-game “confirmation” would be acceptable as well, but anything out-of-game is subject to change so it should also be treated as nothing but a possibility and not set in stone.

You’ll never really get an in-game one (how could that be… a mail from E saying “you’ll know who I am at the end of the season”?). All we know so far is an interview with Ramon Domke, german comunity manager from the foostival 2014.

The interview is in german (so I haven’t really seen it), but Ramon says on the interview that Anet’s internal documents, that he has read, say who E is and that he will be revealed by the end of season 2.

Heh I commend you on your trope knowledge, but I think the meaning of Mr. E. is less elaborate than that. Mr. E = Mystery. I used to use something similar for an email.

While I got temporarily excited at the thought of Mr E being that mysterious centaur figure, I then remembered that Marjory got grappled by him back in DR, and I think a centaur might be hard-pressed to avoid attention there.

locoman.1974:

I’ve actually seen that done before, and done well.

When City of Heroes introduced a group that used time travel, you started to find letters left for you in various points in time, all from an unknown person that was trying to warn you to not trust the time travel group.

Much later, when they revamped the Dark Astoria zone and introduced an OUTSTANDING series of story arcs dealing with the rising threat there, you started getting the letters again. This time, the Letter Writer started to say that the time for you to meet was fast approaching, then that the next you heard from them would be in person.

It was well done, and when you finally did meet them, a lot of things suddenly fell into place. I don’t have great faith in ANet’s writing, but they did a good job with the start of this season. Maybe they’ll pull off something similar.

OK this is driving me nuts. How do you get up to where the centaur camp is? I can get on top where the pipe etc. is over the mine area, but couldn’t work my way around top that way.

HALP.

Ventari’s descendant? Maybe he will hop down to collect royalty fees for all the Ventari’s Inscription receipe sold by Dry Top’s merchants, in next episode?

I kinda thought that too, but it is funny looking when you get up to him.

You have to get bugged and fall through the terrain to get over there.

Well that makes me feel much better about my futile attempts then. :B

It’s so out of the way most people would not find out how to get up there. Luckily we’ll all likely have easy access Tuesday so it won’t matter.

I’ve seen them at least since day 2 (maybe even first day) – there was a blurb somewhere (wiki? Dulfy?) that stated they were a reference (shout out trope) to another video game?? I wish I could find that now, but can’t.

Yeah. I’m pretty sure they are good and will fight on our side.
Also is it just coincidence or why do both have mostly the same outift? (Or is it a common outfit for centaurs)

I was thinking, what if Ventari did the same thing, spying on Ronan as he was mucking around with Pale Tree seed, decided to follow him to see what Ronan would do with the power the seed could bring. After discovered Ronan’s pacifistic venture, Ventari also joined in to further the cause.

lol, Zephyrites also preach pacifism, right? Maybe we are close to the mysterious cave where Pale Tree was being found, along with thousands of other seeds.

Heck, the upcoming release of Alien: Isolation begin to fill my mind with image of eggs silo….
