Notes from Rata Novus - Thoughts?

I don’t know why (mabe because of what happened in lw2) my first thought when i’ve read about gate was “Godkitten inquest again” and that Taimi will again play a role of ‘Damsel in distress’. But the idea of novans is far more interesting

Although i loled at this, i recommend you look at, for example, alligator’s sexual organs: they are hidden inside cloaca, so are not visible from outside, unless errected. Therefore Tequatl still can be a male, you just haven’t aroused him enough :P

I think that additional question might be asked here: what are the origins of the elder dragons? And I’m asking it having in mind the case of Kormir - she became a goddess, but was born 'mortal' human. And since Elder Dragons are at least a bit like gods (if it come to power and fact that both can be killed) the follwing question will be: can you become an elder dragon? Because if ‘current’ elder dragons at one point of time rose to their present power from ‘lesser’ beings, they may had genders which mattered at past time, but not necessarily matter now.

On the other hand, looking back at previous example, Grenth is son of Dwayna and mortal, so it seems that Gods are still under the law of sexual reproduction (at least i assume that it went that way). But still the comparison between Gods and Elder dragons might be flawed and they can operate on completly different principles

Suggestions? https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Metal_Forest

But anyways, is there any information on how the elder dragons breed (and if they do at all)? Because it might be posible that they are powerfull enough that gender does not matter, just like in sylvari case.

It was once delayed and released on wednesday, so there is still a hope for final cliffhanger event

Vale Guardian & Anomalies Theory

(..)These anomalies don’t appear to be hostile, but their presence is causing a lot of damage.(..)

- Ela Makkay
The event description says

Defeat the Ley-Line Anomaly to disperse its destructive energy before it overloads

So i guess that if the anomaly overloads it will release all that energy in a similar way that regular explosion does, and since it is traveling around habitated area, it is dangerous. So if we would disperse it ‘less violently’ (by bashing the hell out of it) the damage will be prevented.

there is an NPC in pact base camp (asura named Agent Zrii) that will take you to the instance if you talk to her.

beating that encounter requires a bit of practice. if you are from EU, i can help you with it.

Mordrem Gorrila?

Maybe they were not good enough to be used. Zhaitan took all the dead creatures he could and use them as cannon fodder. Mordremoth must clone the design of the creature, so maybe they weren’t efficient enough to waste resources on them.

Release inactive char names

I loved Neverwinter way of doing it: the name had to be unique only within your accout, meaning you could have only 1 character named Knoxx, but other players could have Knoxx as well. It was done by adding account name to your character (Konxx@accountname), but displaying only the character name part. Since after adding someone to friends we can know his acc name, i think it would work in GW2 as well. And i would love it

Don’t know that much about Sylvari physiology, but since they are ‘lacking reproductive capabilities’ and that their sex/gender is a bit different case that with most other living creatures, i would say that they don’t see that division (sex/gender) the same way as others. I mean that there is no homo/bi/heterosexuality there – and they are choosing partners/lovers regardless of it.

Best unlock order for masteries ?

1. Updafts is must for story and is helpfull. Advanced gliding is quite usefull too. In itzel jumping mushroom is a must for story, and helps traversing jungle a lot. Nuhoch wallows can be usefull for exploring and saving on waypoints.
Rest depends on what you need – for example if you want specialization weapons – you need vendors and exalted gathering.
2. For basic masteries i think that some exploration is sufficient, like insights and strongboxes which are pretty easy to get with all those guides that are out there. To max out masteries you would have to do some farming.

Go to BLTC building, you will find them too. Also at the Breachmaker wreckage the ley line is bigger than before.

7th Elder Dragon?

I would agree with Konig. I would put it like this: the world in GW is like a rubber baloon that can store only limited volume of water. If you try to put more and more in it, it will start to leak. Elder Dragons in that case are additional containers that held excess of water – when we started to kill them, we poured all the water at once into the balloon. And that is how i see what is happening now with ley energy.

Second Expansion Idea

What do you see when you look at the artwork for Black Citadel? I see multiple platforms and landscapes, NOT just a plain flat landscape like the one in the game. (…) The black citadel’s artwork looks like its suppose to be in some sort of canyon looking area, with huge steeps and such. To me that is beautiful.

Well, actually if you look from west on imperator’s core you can see this canyon, where ruins of Rin and road to Nolani is located.

I’m still on 32bit. The problem with returning is that it is already full after it kicked me for no apparent reason, and the kick itself is what I am mainly whining about. I have no problem playing on other maps (at least core ones)

I know there were a lot of topics about this problem, but i hope that more there are, better the chance that the problem will be delt with.

There were not a single DS map in a long time without at least 1 disconnect for me. Few times I was actually lucky enought to connect back after constantly spamming ‘join in ds’ for 10 mins straight, but if it happened more that once per meta (and usually does) then im screwed. It is really frustrating to loose almost 2 hours and not get the exp and loot. If it’s so hard to fix the cause of the problem, can’t we have at least slot reservation of some kind for at least 3-4 mins for players that disconnected? Is there any progress in solving the issue?
