Harbringer of Woe and Omadd's Machine

Dragon’s Watch is a fake right now, there are 2 charrs, 2 humans and 1 asura.

6 members from 6 Races represented Destiny’s Edge. The new guild has not Sylvari and Norn, so something what always represented the Races, when we stood against dragons don’t exist now.

I think you might have missed my point. All we need is six characters to step into the dragons vacated “seat” doesn’t really matter who. Preferably they are more ebb and flowy than binge and purgy.

I think its a warning.

If we keep killing the dragons without something to balance the power the world will be destroyed. Similar to what is believed to have happened to the humans original world (https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/lore/Where-did-Humans-come-from). The 6 god’s killed off there Elder whatever’s and caused the planet to die, they took the humans through the mists and came to tyria.

The human gods destroyed their world the same way we have started to destroy tyria. The Harbinger of Woe is warning us of the end result of our players current path. IMO.

The worst thing is that we cannot stop these changes in the world, perhaps Aurene will help us in some way, but I am sure she won’t consume all of the magic. We have Lazarus, who consumes magic as well, but will they be enough to stop the catastrophy?

The most frightening thing here is that this guy is called “Harbringer of Woe”… We don’t know what this horrible prophecy will bring. Perhaps as WoodenPotatoes said- destroying of Tyria or something what is going to happen if 2 dragons will die.

We should say to Taimi what is happening in the Mists and about Arkk. This is really important.

We saw the connection with LS3 and Raid’s storytelling. Xera- the last boss said, that Lazarus will come and nothing can stop his return. Maybe we will see some topics from the Mists to LS3.

Anyway the situation in Tyria and in the Mists is really grim.

We’re in the dead end…

might not be a dead end. After all there are six dragons, six human gods, six members of dragons watch…. who knows what could happen!

GW2 Sales 2Q16: a new All Time Low

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

My main take away from this is that 2Q2016 was the lowest quarter, the reasoning for this is nebulous we could argue forever about what we believe it was that caused it but without ANets analytic’s we will never know for sure its all assumption. What we do know is their desired action to correct it.

“What we are planning to do going forward is that we are going to shorten the span for the next launch of the expansion pack. So right now we are in the phase for preparing for the 2nd expansion pack we ae going to shorten the launch timing between the different boxes that we launch to create more momentum”

This tells me that they believe the content drought was the main factor (this is an assumption yours may vary). They wish to correct this by accelerating the expansion pack release schedule.

My question is do we believe this will be successful? What would they need to produce, at what price point, on what schedule, for it to be successful?

The content drought has gone by LS3 has started, HoT has launched it can’t be taken back and if they spend too much time on it future content will suffer. Simply put whats done is done and it cant be undone. I’m looking forward to the future of the game not dwelling on the past.

Fair enough for you but the past got them here. GW2 was “the fastest selling MMO ever.” © and they’ve broken something. We all have opinions on what that something is or if there is something broken at all as players but the numbers say they have a problem.

I won’t buy another xpac in the current Anet climate and won’t buy another gem, that should worry them.

What could they do in the future to win you back?

my crystal ball tells me that episode 2 will be in September on the heels of Expac 2 announcement at PAX party 2016. Episode 3 in January, Episode 4 in March and Expac 2 launch in April.

Your Crystal Balls may vary.

i expect to hear the announcement that they wont put out any more GW2 expansions because of some new “feature” they want to add but the engine wont support, this announcement will come right before we get any sort of closure on the Elder Dragons story. then all work on GW2 will stop in favor of GW3.

New playable race - good or bad idea?

Good idea for us players, terrible idea for Anet. Consider that it currently takes them 9 months to make a set of armor with what exists imagine how much worse it gets if you add in another race, not to mention if they chose to go back to all existing armor and refit it to the new race.

If they choose to add a race logistically it would be one that shares an existing body shape. (IE Largos) Tengu dont really match and existing body time so in my understanding the likely hood they would be added is very slim.

TY so much for salvage kit update!

Personal Story Quest: 'The Hatchery' Bug

(BUG) The Hatchery (level 45)

in Personal Story

Posted by: nighthawke.3075

nighthawke.3075

This is another case of something that looks simple but is actually fairly complex. The issue is that the same day that I made the fix to this story step, some changes were made to the music system that required an update to all story steps. Unfortunately, this meant that my fixed version was no longer compatible with Live, since it had references to the new audio changes in it, but Live did not have the new changes yet. Ultimately, it was deemed too risky to rush out the new audio changes (since they would affect every story step), which is why this (seemingly minor) fix has been delayed for so long, and why it’s part of a major update, and hasn’t been pushed out with the smaller updates we’ve made since this bug was fixed.

Thank you for the explanation!

Personal Story Difficulty Unacceptable

All of the story steps (except for the very last step) are balanced for solo players.

(snip)

Out of curiosity what was the design decision in making the very last story step in our personal story a group mission instead of a solo mission?

not really expecting an answer but thought i would ask.

Victory or Death --> I need to complete it AGAIN? *spoilers*

How is the story step and the story mode of the dungeon different? The story step just tells you to go and do the dungeon. If a player has already done the dungeon and killed Zhaitan why does the game not recognize this?

Or to put the question another way, why is there no warning not to do the Arah story dungeon until you have done the personal story up to that point?

I think an equally important question is why do i have to do a 5-man group dungeon to complete my PERSONAL story in the first place?
