Guild Wars 2

So after 6 month of writing and another month or so of typing I am happy to bring my ideas to you all. Shards of Divinity takes place right after the end of Heart of Thorns as we find clues to the next dragon attack. Big changes come to the world of Tyria in this story. I do hope you all enjoy the story right over here. If the story does get enough likes I will happily continue to write on (I already have plans for ALL of the other known dragons). Thank you for your time and be sure to leave some feedback!

Hello. So i am enjoying a bit of writing now days and I had an idea for what the next expansion could be about. So I started writing it and it has turned into a story called Shards of Divinity. Whille working on Shards I realized that one of the people we face doesn’t have a proper explanation for why they are acting that way. I have written The Dragon’s Gaze to try and get people ready for the story. I do hope you all enjoy as I had a lot of fun writing this out!

i agree with you 100% with SW farming and some jumping puzzle ive spent maybe 300g and just hit over 5,000 drinks. gaile gray said that the drink achievement would last throughout the year but its still BS in my mind. The 5,000 drink mark should be the limit or they should make the gifts a lot more abundant.

So it has been a long time since I have written anything. As of late i I have been haveing thoughts of stories and wanted to start off with a small one. In Strike of Ebonhawke we follow a nameless facless charr in his fight against a band of Flame Legion shortly after Kralkatoriks attack on Ebonhawke. This is my first attempt of writing in years that wasn’t needed for school classes. I do hope you all enjoy the story

Part 2:

So now we get into more current lore with the amulet that shows who the current heir to the throne is. The picture has gone dark and fuzzy. Kralkatorik looks towards divinities reach. As he flies he breaths again onto the land creating yet another Brand. He slowly flies passing through Iron Marchs and the mountains dividing Fireheart Rise from Diessea Plateau. Frostgorge Sound from both the Wayfarer Foothills and Snowden Drifts. He cuts through the middle of the
Harathi Hinterlands and makes an assault on Divinity’s Reach. Queen Jenna is trapped in the castle and begins to hear the dragons call. She once saw into the mind of this
dragon and now it is finally calling back. Slowly she is consumed by the dragons wishes and turns to Kralkatorik. Though through her abilities as mesmer she is able to deceive
most of the populace of DR to thinking they fended off the dragon. Countess Anise is one of the few that knows her bluff and she is ordered killed. Before she is attacked she sends word to
Logan about what happened as he is torn to rush back or stay with the rest. He ultimately stays because he knows that figuring out how to beat kral is the best option.

On the return home to DR they find a bloodied figure laying on the side of the road only to find it to be Countess Anise. She turns to logan and tells him that they must
slay Queen Jenna and free DR of its new prison. As you approach DR Scarlet (this is Livia for those who have read Sea of Sorrows and played GW1) appears and tells them that the queen is heavily guarded and there is a resistance group ready to help. We then stage a recapture of DR from the branded foes and rush to fight Jenna.

In the fight with jenna as she is about to die (ala scarlet on the breachmaker. and this one is sylvari scarlet) Logan rushes to her side. she utters one word before Logan can deal the final blow. Breaking him both mentally and almost physically as she attacks back once more. The word uttered was “Janthir”. After making sure DR is safe for the human populace again we turn our sights to the Janthir Bay knowing that Kralkatorik is now making that home. We ready the pact and set out to confront the elder dragon of crystal.

Just to sweeten this up a little more. After talking with the six gods they speculate that the dragon is pulling from them all. You are told of a portal has opened deeper in the Crystal Desert and that minions from the underworld are slowly coming from the gate. Dhuum has slowly been gathering his strength back but has had a much harder time since the dragons are even feeding off of him. the avatar of grenth realizes that left uncheck dhuum can awaken and start wreaking havoc and that would jsut add to the problems. this would open up an underworld type dungeon for people to take part of again.

so yeah.. those are my thoughts. Thank you for reading if you did. Do have fun with your adventures to come in Tryia.

Hello everybody. So to give some back story right now I have been playing guild wars 2 since day one. I have loved the lore of the game and just how the stories are told. I have always had a bit of fondness for writing but I’ve never seen myself as any good (the harshest critic is yourself. i must hit myself with a nailbat for sure). A while ago ANET announced heart of thorns and that made me start to think. Seeing as there are so many dragons still out and about which one would we go after next if mordremoth is slain in HoT? So I started to brain storm a lot of ideas and came up with a very short idea of what a possible second expansion for guild wars 2 would be.

A lot of people I tell this to in game seem to love the idea but then I posted it to reddit and lets just say it wasn’t a good experience. I’m sadly not expecting to good of a outcome with posting it here but please do let me know what you think about it in the comment or in game later on. Thank you for at least giving me this chance to tell it.

We have taken out Zaihtan and now Mordremoth (if he is the finale of HoT). For this to work Logan Thrackery needs to still be alive and so does Kasmeer, so please don’t kill me too quickly and give this a chance!

With the threat of two dragons gone the risen have slowed and the sylvari are slowly shaking their ties with their dead master. Sadly we are starting to see more aggression from the elder dragon Kralkatorrik. He has claimed a bit more of the charr homelands though the fire legion is struggling to hold their ground. The Pact has been reformed and rested since their initial
assault on Mordremoth in the maguuma jungle but the threat still lingers from the other. destiny’s edge and the heros group ( I’ll just say DE2.0 that is Brahm, Rox, Kasmeer, Marjory, possible Cannach and the player) travel to the crystal desert to learn what they can from destiny’s edges failed fight against Kralkatorik the first time and of glints death.

While we are in the desert we start to hear strange sounds. callings, wonderings from voices not there and a mirage on the horizon that resembles old pictures of Augury Rock. As we approach we are split up as Rytlock finds his way into the main chamber only to hear the voices " I sense an old magic around here that I haven’t felt in many decades." Another voice chims “It would seem that the descendents of ascalon have returned for our favor” a third, two female voices taking turns talking “Impossible ascalon was destroyed years ago. It would seem descendant of their conquerors have returned.” Then an Avatar of Balthazar emerges from the darkness " It would seem the Charr wish to desecrate another holy ground of the human!" Rytlock explains that the past is the past slowly earning the trust of the figure.
The then sense Cannach and ask why a dragon spawn is allowed to even walk amongst them where cannach explains his freedom from mordremoth.

Then the other avatars walk out to explain what is going on. The reason the six gods have left se the sthe humans alone is cauix gods have been severely weakened due to the dragons consumption of magic. They cannot hold their might like they used to and it happens from each of their awakenings. The gods have been reverted to just their avatars. Though still formidable they could not possible face the dragons themselves. While DE and DE 2.0 talk with the gods to figure out the history of the dragons and to be congratulated for killing two a third rears his head again.

Stooperdale.3560:

It seems as if fractal level 50+ will be released at some point. When that happens any master tier at 50 will be problematic, to say the least. There’s no point suggestion new development that clashes with other expected developments in the future.

well the higher ones can still come in. this is a separate “run everything now”. so you would still be able to do the normal 4 fractal set at higher levels but this would give all 12 (if abbadon is added) for a harder challenge.

konvay.2157:

Kiel ended up not being able to take Dessa out, she kept being teleported back to her spot and forgetting what had just happened.

From the wiki:
“In 1326 AE, Captain Kiel entered the Fractals of the Mists in order to commandeer the equipment therein, to aid in the investigation of Scarlet Briar’s connection to the Thaumanova Reactor disaster. Dessa was able to stabilize an instance of the disaster, but when the events there raised more questions than answers, Kiel attempted to place her under arrest. When Dessa entered the asura gate back to Lion’s Arch, she immediately reappeared in the Mistlock Observatory with no memory of the previous events, revealing that the observatory is subject to the same rules as all the other fractals, and that Dessa is just as locked in the same loop as all the other creatures in the fractals.”

I approve of anything new to Fractals and ways to earn the skins, though!

ahhs ok. I seen Kiel try and take her away but I didn’t see anything past that. Thank you !

So I got into a lvl 49 group and I got to thinking about an addition to FOTM that could sort out the whole fractal weapon skins. My idea is the master level of fractal. So if memory serves kiel took dessa out of the observatory for some reason or another. What if kiel and dessa come back and a worker reports a strange phenomenon with the machines and give the player a new fractal achievement to work on. “complete lvl 50 fractal 10 times” or something another. After obtaining it you get an achievement “fractal master”. This would be an all party thing. Everyone in your party would need the fractal master achievement to hit the master levels. The master levels would set you and your party against every fractal out.

So you’d get a group of four lvl 1 and 2 fractals face a boss the rest of the 1 and 2 with a 3 in there then a second boss. Then the remaining fractals then the final boss. The way that i would like to raise the steaks and makes this master level a bit more interesting is to introduce the Abbadon fractal as a last challenge and give it a decent boss fight. As well, while you are running each fractal will have a different, random mystlock ability save for the Mossman chasing one. At the end of the fight, and like completing fractals, the player is rewarded with a new drop. Something like the “Fractal Artifact”. Now Darth what do we use this new collectable for I hear you ask.

After the Abbadon fractal everyone is teleported to an area like the end of nightfall or something similar where there are some Forgotten waiting in this area (insert a story about the gods of tyria in here like why are the hiding or a story on the elder dragons from their last awakening here. yes more lore stuff). They also act as merchants. The new collectable can be used to buy things like fractal skins (im thinking 2-3 artifacts per skin) to ascended chests for armor and weapons (anet can choose). Though for maybe a 20-25 artifacts you can get the endless fractal tonic. The new level would also be the highest paying out dungeon seeing as it has such a long length. I was thinking along 5g.

I do think this would be something cool and I have always wanted to see what the Abbadon fractal would have been since Kiel won. If any one has any other suggestions in this i would love to hear them!

I have had many an argument about this topic while playing the game and it has made me rage more time then i would like to talk about. With all this talk about the PvP changing i would love to throw in my 2 cents on what i would like to see changed. I main as a necro in the game so I took it to PvP cause its what I know. I usually have great matches but when I get downed by a thief or Mesmer I know the most annoying thing is coming. Being able to use your finisher while stealthed (only 2 classes can really do it save for long bow ranger) in mist form, or plague form is just annoying. I know that stability keep everything from pushing or fearing you back but when you have targeted skills 2 and 3 to help in your final stand and there is no way to use them cause you can not target it breaks it. I have often been nagged at by the people who will stealth/mist/plauge/etc take down to jsut shut up cause its part of the game any anyone can do it (majority with stealth) if your skill right or use fields. In my mind that does not justify it at all.

eh sure why the hell not. This is my main toon. he is a necro MM so its alot of fun.
im running full aetherblade light armor save for the helm which is the monocle. if you want the color scheme as well just let me know.

because controlling zombies doesn’t mean one can not dress like a gentleman. yes i know its an armor set but i love the steam punk culture and the aether blade armor made me very happy. I’m rocking mathildes staff scepter and focus on him. he has a green glow effect at night.
monocle: abyss/ (now its) bronze/ celestial
aetherblade: abyss/ bronze/ rust
