Guild Wars 2

This screen was just south of the Toran Hollow vista in Dredgehaunt Cliffs, looking south back toward the Bear’s Jaw shrine (at left of pic).

There is some kind of white thing flying around, doing laps basically. It looks like a vertical white bar with a contrail. In the cap it’s top center of the screen, moving up and about to go out of frame.

What the heck is that supposed to be?

There’s something similar in Wayfarer foothills south of the Heart of the Bear point of interest, except that one’s black rather than white.

Maybe some sort of Animal Spirit? I haven’t seen it myself yet, so you have piqued my interest.

I always thought of it as a graphical way of displaying gust or a breeze. But that is just how I seen it. At least the few I saw seem to repeat in the same direction.

Since it’s norn land, I always thought of it like that too, but kind of a spirit wind sort of thing. However, in all the ones I’ve seen, I’ve never seen that “white bar” that’s in your screenshot, just the trail part.

Pretty sure it’s supposed to be a Spirit. You see the same thing when you do the Norn mission where the minotaurs are freaking out because their Spirit is threatened, and they only show up in Norn areas with shrines or mystic places nearby.
