So ye ive been seein a lot of stuff flyin around reddit and in game about sky pirates, steampunk armor and weapons, steam pipes in gendarran fields, and also aetherblade achievements. Anyone got an idea whats gonna happen? Considering the living story is meant to be all tied together im not really seein the connection quite yet. This is my first time learning of the so called sky pirates though which sounds cool.
I’d be stoked if these pirates came from the same world that the steam monsters do. These people being either resistance members or something along those lines. Silly but we already have steam punk stuff and not connection em would be a let down.
OMG I sooo hope the next Living World story deals with the Steam Creatures.
I love those things!
Pretty sure the sky pirates and their steam tech are independent of the steam creatures. The steam creatures already have an explanation and story arc, though though they no doubt stand to be expanded upon.
They tie in with the Asura personal story “The infinity ball”, where it’s revealled the asura player character created them and then conquered all Tyria using them… or, at least, their evil twin in an alternate universe did, and they were planning to invade this universe too (A plan thwarted when they tried take out their ‘good’ version only to discover that the only person capable of deafeatting them was themself)
The rumors seem to be true. Ive spent about an hour checking it out. Thanks to a render bug, you can see it in Gendarran Fields. If you approach the mountain, you can even hear the work going on inside it.
