Guild Wars 2

But how many episodes to go? Assuming the next patch will be Dec 2, then the 16th? But I also assume the 16th will be wintersday patch. After that, two holidays and into Dec, almost another month of break probably.

Maybe I’m thinking this wrong, but if true, then when will this whole “change tyria forever” moment occur, if not at the end of this year?

Most likely two more episodes.

One on December 2nd and another one at December 16th.

There’s 8 episodes. The last pieces of Carapace armor are unlocked on episode 8 (says so in the descriptions).

Or rather episode 8 is the last portion of this LS.

I can’t look ATM, and I never noticed the releases dated, but when you say pieces, you mean more than one slot or same slot, different ac?

Will there really be two more episodes this year? Last year, LS started the midseason break around this time. The only significant December update was Wintersday (which I loved).

I can definitely see one more episode left this year that’ll give a cliffhanger answer to what happened at the end of the latest episode as a midseason finale, but then Wintersday is gonna have to roll in at some point.

Headpiece and Chest piece in episode 8, leggings and boots in episode 7, gloves episode 6, shoulders episode 5.

Go to the account wardrobe and look for all the carapace pieces (should be easy considering all the armors are in alphabetical order).

Rule #1 when dealing with Anet:

Their promotions seldom ever match what they actually deliver.

The “change Tyria forever” was the attack on Lion’s Arch.

Lion’s Arch was changed forever.

Though I suppose one could attribute it to Mordremoth’s awakening too, which was done in the same update. Season 2 isn’t the cause of the change, but the after-effects and the change itself (Mordrem, Mordrem everywhere).

ToN’s finale and Wintersday were delivered in the same patch. It wasn’t a “mid-season break” but a “holiday break”. Season 1 didn’t have a mid-season break. But at the same time, Season 1 gave a lot less content per episode compared to Season 2 (sans S2E6 which is more or less on par to the bigger S1 releases).

They might split up episodes like with The Dragon’s Reach in part 1 too. 10 content releases makes more sense than 9 as well.

My guess is we’ll get another story patch on the 2nd, then have Wintersday on the 16th then a 2 part final episode running through january
