Guild Wars 2

Surprised no-one’s said Snaff, he is a legendary figure after all. And not all them need to be old heroes

I could see Asura being Revenants. They experiment with magictech all the time, maybe they made a suit of armour that allows them to tap into the mist’s? Or possibly having leyline infused dust sewn into the cloth of the armour, infused into the metal as it’s forged? Or maybe even just go exploring into the mist’s :P

But as for a race…I’m undecided right now. I’ll give it another look when the expansion is out, but it’s going to be hard for me. I have 5 characters all different races, and I feel I would need another race to play another class. So I’ll have to get past that mental block

Part of me is wondering if the Dream is a nice protection from Mordies influence (which was negated with the explosion of awaking he had). So those who are a part of the dream still, such as Player Sylvari and Nightmare courtiers. Yes I said Nightmare, I say this because they want to corrupt the dream while still being a part of it.

The only Sylvari that I worry about are the Soundless. No dream to protect them…nice Minion buffet for Mordie

There are a few things in that cinematic that start ticking along in my brain so I shall list below my thoughts.

1: Caith saying “we can break free from destiny”. This makes me think she’s got a plan for the Sylvari to stop them from being controlled by Mordremoth. Something to do with Glint’s Egg maybe?

2: What I presume (quite heavily) to be a Mursaat, seems to be turning a structure…golden. I can’t help but think that the Mursaat will turn up in later content now that this has been shown. But another thought went through my head….playable race? I’m kinda torn between this option really, while I can see it being quite cool for them to be a playable race I can’t see them being one as well with how the professions work. A Mursaat Engineer….not seeing it. So I guess I’m defeating my own idea’s here…WOO! Score one for my brain destroying my imagination again

3: During the big ‘fight scene’ between Humans and a norn(?) versus the Sylvari (presumably Nightmare) I see alot of spears being used, with a shield…and 2 handed. Are spears going to make an appearance as a new weapon? I fricking hope so! WOO SPEARS!

4: When you have Braham at the end saying “We’ll take the fight to Mordremoth!” I see all of DE 2.0 that we had from before the cinematic…but I also see a Taimi + Scruffles AND I also see a Canach! We going to see more of him with the upcoming content?

5: What happened to Malyck!?! Has he turned against us….or has he turned some of the Sylvari that he finds in his pod against Mordremoth? What will his involvement be in the upcoming story…..I can’t wait to find out!!

Well, Belinda’s ghost is kinda hanging around at Fort Salma on the walls. Maybe they have some plans for her yet?

I wouldn’t mind going along with you as well. As I enjoy casual runs more then quick rush. Feels more fun overall. So if your on EU side I could give a hand if you want.

quick question. Does the story need to be a beautiful scene, or can it be a scene that just seems to happen more often then not to the character? Possibly somewhat humorous…

I would perfer the story to have a unique meaning, rather then be cliche (over used) :p

Hmmm, guess that rules out that story. Would have just been a story that showed (somehow through narrative) my character always being the target of monsters for no descernable reason. My friends and I always found it funny that all monsters targeted a tiny Asura with a pistol and shield over the 2 towering Norns wielding greatweapons. So I would have put something describing that somehow. But if that’s not the type of story you’d like to draw for I can come up with something else in the next selection process

Regards to the ones above..I enjoyed reading all of them. Love some of the creativity that comes from the Guild Wars world I am going to enjoy watching this thread grow with stories from here on.

Well seeing as I’ve only had one character complete it so far.

His reaction was when he rounded the corner…“Oh no….” with a look of worry over how Marjory would take this.

I tried searching for a similar topic but couldn’t find one…hopefully I’m not blind.

I keep seeing this happen during the personal story instances. Mainly the low level ones from lvl’s 1-30, where I try talking to a NPC and it bring’s up a box before closing it and the re-opening a dialogue box that looks like it’s taking the stance that the mission has finished. It’s not really a big bug but I felt I needed to report it as it can break immersion for those playing I guess.

I admit, that battle that played out would be kinda cool to see. Not sure how to implement it as an actual scene in the game but it would be awesome!

Thanatos, I beleive it’s the personal story one where you have Apatia with you and have to deal with the Krait. When you choose what you fear the most it’s the “making another suffer” choice.

Why not have both? Or all the leaders?

So let’s see here…we have

Asura: The Arcane Council
Sylvari: The Pale Tree
Humans: Queen Jennah
Charr: The imperators of the 4 high leagions? (I say 4 because the Flame is still considered a High legion…even if their leader is dead now because of us) Or the Khan-Ur if it ever get’s resolved now that the claw has been found.
Norn: Knut Whitebear as he currently is the leader of Hoelbrak?

You could even include the leaders of the major factions of Kryta as well
The Pact: Trahearne because well, he is the guy in charge of it.
The Vigil: Almorra Soulkeeper
Durmand Priory: Steward Gixx
Order of Whispers: The Master or Whispers

Having all of these guys targetted, or removed from play would really upset the balance of power in the dragons favour. So I guess it would be kinda nice to see a development like that happen, but also horrible in game as well
We shall have to wait and see.

And then, there was this scene I stumbled on in Prosperity:

If only he had picked up that Elixir of Heroes right behind him.

I expect that elixer of heroes fell from his hand when the vines arrived :p

This…is something I think I will follow. As a fellow Asura of course.

I have to agree with the original poster here. (and a few other people it seems)

I love the content ANet has put out with Season 2, and I so can’t wait for more to arrive for me to get my geeky paws on! and I do think they are doing something right when I scream loudly “TAIMI NOO!!” And try to charge in after her before I’m allowed to.

Thanks again ANet for this! It’s awesome!

They kinda remind me of a spinal column when they align correctly. Which is kinda cool…and if it’s supposed to be like that has implications that I have no idea what to think about!

FenrirSlakt.3692:

I’d assume that EDs are almost common knowledge, considering that LA was attacked by Zhaitan, nothern Ascalon was crystallized by Kralkatorrik, Northern Shiverpeaks corrupted by Jormag and the frequent sightings of Destroyers everywhere.
Zhaitan’s fall was also a large event that was celebrated almost in every map (Dragon Bash).
And finally, our characters are commanders of the Pact lore-wise, so it is safe to assume that they’re more knowledgeable than the average Joe.

But as far as I remember, Mordremoth was an unknown dragon. We knew of the Deep Sea Dragon because of Krait, Quaggan and Largos arriving and telling us of this. Mord was never known about so it is curious why we spouted it’s name.

If we did know it then I most likely have missed it in that period of LS:Season 1 that I didn’t play. Or it just may have slipped the minds of the dev’s, they do have alot to think about when making this stuff so I don’t mind to much. Is just a point of curiosity for me right now.

It looks like it could have come from Cantha. First time I’ve seen it though so all I got is a guess

For some reason, having the title ‘Nurse’ before the name inspires a sense of foreboading in me. So Nurse Lexxi get’s a thumbs up from me

Parekk Tinker, he’s an engineer and likes to tinker around with all sorts of objects. Be they Asuran in origin, or Charr, heck he’d even Tinker around with ancient Orrian artifacts just to see if he can reverse engineer anything from them.

Elixer X does have a nice option for a bit of control capability. Though it is random chance for it though, you either get to be an immovable object that can knock someone over with 4 different attacks. Or you get to be a giant tornado that constantly does knockback effects and you can then buff them for other abilities.

The Supply crate is good for general helping out of a bad situation, as it drops Med kits that anyone can use and also a few turrets one of which is a healing turret. So not a bad supporting elite to have.

The Golems are tailored to your play style really. If you like doing alot of damage then you’ll need to go with the attack golem as it is able to hit from range. If you want a more defensive and survivable game you want the defense golem as it’s got a nice anti projectile shield that appears when it spawns and throws out a couple more times during it’s run.

The Golem suit is kinda fun to be in, but does need a bit more tweaking by the devs to make it a more viable option. Least that’s what I think, it hasn’t really helped me so far but I am an engineer. Don’t know what it would do if given to a Warrior though >_>

Made me giggle

Oooohhh, that seriously makes me fear the potential a Mesmer can do as a Knight of Chaos. Which one of these Illusions is the real one, with all their blades cutting the opponents.

Heheh, makes my imagination run wild

YES! Good god YES! I need a charr friend now for my Asura Engi to do some drive by pistol sniping

I’m all up for seeing the Spiritualist make an appearance from Guild Wars 1, they were unique and had a cool Lore about them. Them being an ancient magical profession that slowly lost it’s old ways and took on the way new magic is done while not truely forgetting their routes.

Means another light armour class but oh well, means we get Spiritualists and I’m ok with this

Hehehehe, that is something that has crossed my mind at some points.

Who knows, maybe it was once a valuable piece of Orrian fabric…or maybe they are just messing with people?

This is pretty cool, though I have a hard time dealing with the ships by myself…engineer sadness

Still a pretty cool image and I do love the broken armour look.

I’m still reading them, still quite nice and enjoyable.

The valentines day one is very cute

Well since we are on about the out favourite parts of the whole story I can go ahead and deal out spoilers here

There are three moments that I will love more then anything in this game.

1: I’d chosen to be a part of the Durmand Prioy and as such, fell in love with Seiran’s character. I was very sad when she died on me, protecting me from the hoard of Risen coming for my Asuran Blood But the next mission helped me vent all of my rage at the Risen. I got to be the embodiment of Balthazar and even though I was tasked with defending Lion’s Arch from the hoards of Risen coming through from Claw Isle, I didn’t care. All I cared about was slaughtering all the Risen I could find for killing a very close friend of mine and it was GLORIOUS! I was slightly crying throughout the entire thing because of how much I cared for Sieran and how I got to have my vengeance.

2: Air Drop, so much glorious golemantic death that I couldn’t help but feel proud that I was playing an Asura. So much glorious tech!

3: Purifying Orr, the set up for it all was amazing, meeting everyone you’ve ever met throughout your Personal Story. All of them joining up together to help you fight against the corruption of Zhaitain. The music that played as both you and Treaherne fight against the Eye of Zhaitan, knowing that this will be the deciding factor in the war against the Dragon of Death and just having that awesome set of music playing in the background….I was literally crying my eye’s out as I played through that section.

Those are my favourite moments that made me feel so glad to have played this game

Thank you Arena Net for all of this awesome story

I am enjoying the read. Was wondering if there was consistency there for a moment but it’s all flowing together nicely when you keep reading
