The Tengu are not actually openly attacking Primordus minions. They are more like that old cranky guy on the block screaming “Get off my lawn!” at anything remotely hostile. (Which was clearly evident during the invasion of LA. They shot at everyone without a care in the world.) It is also possible that both the Tengu and the Dwarves (pre-stoning) had cremation traditions. That or dwarves turn to stone when they die (Returning to the earth as dwarves are often reported of doing in numerous mythos). There is also the posibility that when the humans arrived in tyria the dwarves left the area around Orr (if they were ever there in the first place), preferring the mountainous, colder climate in the shiverpeaks. (Dwarves were only found in the shiverpeaks in any large numbers.) As for no dwarven destroyers, take a look at gw1 destroyers and you will see a major change in appearances. The only one that stayed somewhat the same was the Troll destroyers. they basically just lost their tails. (A good example of a sleeping dragon vs a non-sleeping dragon perhaps?)
From the wiki “They (destroyers) are forged from the molten heart of their master—Primordus”. Primordus is the only known dragon that doesn’t corrupt creatures. He sculpts them. Why has he never made a copy of a dwarf? Because they don’t, on their own, have very good combat traits when compared to other creatures. They are short, and sturdy sure, but their reach is limited, and speed is slow. Compared to a crab destroyer they are also less stable on their feet (You can’t beat multiple legs with just 2) and crabs also have inbuilt weapons with their claws. Trolls are faster and have a much greater reach, and in addition to those harpies can fly. Its not like Primordus can make perfect copies to try and infiltrate the dwarven line, so there is no need for him to make dwarven destroyers.
It is also possible that the “blessing” of the Great Dwarf protects them from such things, but given the above mentioned tactical notes I doubt this is the cause.
Inside there wall they are being attack by Primordus minions as we know from the Tengu them selfs. cremation traditions is possible with both races. As for dwarfs most of you say is true, i just saying its possible, but i will say its most likely not happening. Wiki does point out the truth.
Not meant as trolling, but Largos will never be playable. They’re an elusive race who shie away from too much contact with other people and operate mostly on their own as hunters of some sort of prey. Anet cannot suddenly retcon their whole background and have hundreds of thousands Largos out and about in the open world…
I want to point out something about the Largos, they do not make much contact with Land people, But they do make contact with water people since they are water. Also you gotta remember that just because they do not make contact with our part of the world doesn’t mean there isn’t a part of the world that they are in contact with much more. For all we know they are most likely looking for ways to fight the bubblez because he could be a current threat to them. There lore never says that they would never ask for help if it is needed. They can be playable because in theory we do not know the amount of population of there race and that leaves it wide open. You can also factor in the fact that there is not much know about them.
I still support that the Tengu will be the first new playable race and the Largos will most likely come in second.
Tengu are not rises because they have the wall and most likely kill there own people before they can become that, its also possible they have a ancient item that stops that, but do remember they are dealing with Primordus minions.
As for the sylvari, most likely are dragon minions and there are plenty of theory’s out there and such.
Here is a thought, Why have we not seen any undead dwarfs, or any of Primordus minions made of dwarfs given they are now rock….
Joko’s undead could work, but the biggest question what races would it be of, Humans and Charr, maybe Norn, and Asura Too. Sylvari most likely will not work, but it is always possible that given that it seams to be a different type of magic it may work on them.
Also we know that Joko most likely it busy keeping his troops in order to keep Kralkatorrik minions at bay, and of course the Risen from Orr, but they most likely are all dead now given that Zhaitan is dead.
Edit: Hybarf Tics….It looks that way, but i will not hold my breath that it will happen till i see it and yes i know you said might.
You forgot Margonite. I have no clue what happened to them when Abaddon died… do they still exist, cause hell, concept art looks beautiful.
Also, can you imagine Margonite + Chronomancer (see picture 2).
Margonite are most likely are gone/dead, if anything they could still be around in the Realm of Torment with Kormir but that is really unknown at this point.
As for the Chronomancer they could become part of GW2 but most likely will not happen.
Also in theory they could bring back the Dwarfs but it would have to take place after Primordus was killed. But Give there is no known number of Dwarfs alive they are most likely gone.
Because Tengu would require the same difficulties as the charr presented in the armor redesign. That would mean every single piece of armor (outside of cultural) would have to be redesigned to fit their unique body type (I still want them as playable though) Lore wise? Yes, they fit perfectly imo.
Largos would be pretty simple in terms of armor for reasons you stated.
Dwarfs are an easy armor redesign but would require some creative story telling to bring them back.
Kodan, Skritt, and Quaggan need more diversity in appearance and armor re designs to fit their unique body types. Skritt may be a bit easier than the others.
Centaurs would require fairly substantial armor re skinning and would need a lot of work to make their underwater combat look even reasonable.
You pretty much wrote what i would have written. But i still stay Tengu will be the first race added and then the Largos would come next.
The Two races that would be the easiest for Anet to do, is Well Tengu and Largos, Why they already though about the Tengu but they ended getting cut and the Largos would be easy to do because they are pretty much like humans in body style so in theory it would take less time to do them. Also they have already pretty much setup both these races to be playable.
Let me see here, They most likely will do Tengu, since it almost already happened but where cut. Largos can be done, but given that they are underwater they would need to total reward water combat, but still a possibility. Also not sure where people get that they are rare? They just seam to stay away from land races and live deep in the ocean, they could be add when the Bubblez is added someday. The Kodan could be done as well as Centaur but that would take some creative work. A few others, Undead(jokos undead, different from Risen), Naga, Forgotten,Frogman,Grawl,Harpy, Seer, warden, Yeti, and Dredge. Of course given the creative insight that Anet has, i am sure they could come up with some brand new races as well.
But the first race i am pretty Sure will be Tengu.
Healing Signet/For Great Justice/Shake it off/Dolyak signet/signet of rage
It Took about 50 Tries and over 100 for me to get it, i tried different builds and such not, ended with warrior. Pretty much at phase 2 Ran backwards with a Rifle and shot her to death, very simple. Also i can not take full Credit for this Build, since i did find it on the forum, i change one skill. The Build was posted by XanBie.3675. So ya this build make her pretty much easy, just gotta have the timing down with where to be at the right time.
As someone who has 10 80’s and 15 chars slots, after this change, i feel like crap, i was enjoying the new event and then i herd about this…and i’m really speechless i mean i though Anet was learning, but sometimes i just don’t know. I guess there is now no need to level up the rest of them. Instead of fixing Dungeons which the rewards are as joke as well, they pretty much killed them, as well as Alts, GG Anet, GG.
