Guild Wars 2

i think i saw an image of a blue one for the caithe scarlet living story
and people were wondering what it was
sadly, i haven’t followed any living stories too closely lately
so i’m wondering if it’s known what these things are now

Wow… never saw THOSE before!

The blue one is used in the Twilight Arbor aetherblade path. Anyone with that above them will end up attracting the ooze(s) that are part of two of the rooms there.

These are probably going to be similar. That wurm is supposed to have 3 heads. Maybe 1 color for each head, meaning people with that over their head probably shouldn’t be near each other otherwise overlapping AoEs from the wurms will murder anyone near them.

The red and yellow tear icons both have the heart symbol in them, which is the same symbol used in the trait window for vitality. That would lead me to think that there may be new types of buffs that we can (or have to) maintain to help fight the boss.

Kinda makes me suspect there are multiple objectives in the fight, which could mean some interesting mechanics.

I agree that since it uses the same icon as the one in the TA path it’s probably similar in some ways. Maybe it means the wurm has somehow ‘marked’ that person and they have to either stay away or draw it’s attacks.

Or since it has 3 heads maybe draw the attacks from one head into another? That would be cool.
