I haven’t played in 2-years.

I have 5 level 80’s with exotic armor
1 of those level 80’s had 100% map completion at the time.
3 of my 80’s have 400 in each of the crafting skills.
SPvP rank 20+
Low WvW ranking
Around 10K achievement points (I think that’s right)
I think I have one toon that has fractals level 19 or something like that
I don’t know anything about this “living world” stuff or any other content in the last two years.
I have a sixth slot with a level 21 necro
Unsure if any of my builds are still viable or what’s changed

Suggestions on where I should restart learning the world and/or doing stuff?

Uhm. That’s a lot to put in a few forum posts…

Basically, Living World is the “sequel” to your personal story, and will eventually lead up to the reveal of the next Big Bad. It comes with replay value for those who want the achievements.

Traits have been redone a few times, you might want to check that, it’ll tell you whether or not your old build still works.

The daily achievements have been changed, and there is no monthly achievement anymore.

There are collections now, where you get stuff for… getting other stuff. They’ve got a spot in the hero panel (Achievements → Collections).

Tequatl is new and shiny, and there’s a new world boss, the Three-Headed Wurm.

Also, ascended armour. Expensive and kind of useless, unless you want to look like a clown. I mean jester. A noble court jester. But maybe you want the skin, or the +5% stat increase. I don’t know.

Minis don’t need to be in your inventory anymore.

Also, new maps. West of Brisban Wildlands.

PSA: The amount of small felines serves as an indicator for just how angry I am at something.

Thanks Red Queen (Smallville reference? love that show!).

Oh, good, sounds like my exotic armor is still useful, so that ’s good.
Knowing about collections is helpful and will give me something to work towards.

I’ll look to see if the Dragon timer is still up and running to go battle some world bosses and find this three-headed wurm.

Nice. A new map to explore. thanks again!

Actually, it’s Alice in Wonderland, and evolution. But I’ve heard good things about Smallville, just never got around to watching it^^

That would be the new timer. The bosses don’t have windows anymore, the events just start.
