Guild Wars 2

Mordremoth, Bubbles is already awake

I hope it wasn’t Bubbles. Underwater combat is atrocious and I don’t want new underwater content until they revamp that entire mechanic.

Having said that, I still think it was Mord. Finally an awesome cinematic.

Moderate is the key, remember that girls.

The cinematics that you see in the personal story where 2 characters talk to each other on a stage-like environment have been…retired.

This makes me a sad panda Care to explain why?

1. It felt less like a conversation more like a load screen (oh hey there that character is swapped out for another..)
2. Only two characters at a time.
3. Takes you away from the world for a moment.

Those are a few. I like that they’re gone (in future stories)!

You only get one power core. At the end of this Living Story, Cat-a-lys-tron appears and reveals that he created Scarlet to destroy Lion’s Arch to allow new cities to prosper and grow. But, he no longer believes her to be capable of serving her purpose. He’ll give you three options of how to stop her. The choice you make will determine the color of your power core.

Hello,
So something I enjoy doing in this game is wandering around the world. Doing events, gathering, etc. Every once in a while I come across a new player thats doing his first level 80. Most of the time this person will have no idea what the Living story is or what has happened. What I usually do is give them a summary of recent events and take them around the world to show them the sights of previous LS content. I always get the best reactions with the zeyphr sanctum model or the toxic tower cinematic. So it gave me idea.

Story Tellers Campfire: Place an item down at your feet that when players interact with it, it will play a cinematic of your choosing.
It works similar to the funbox in terms of how you choose. The person who put it down can select which cinematic they want played when players interact with it. It could be new cinematics or just all of the old ones (Maybe the karka coming up during lost shores, the final bosses appearing in the Molten Alliance weapons facility, things like that).

The camp would be your typical camp fire. It could be more if they decided to make it like a campsite with a tent, chairs, maybe a roasted pig over the fire, etc.
Just an idea I had. What do you guys think of it?

I go back to a suggestion ive been posting in all these topics:

A vote:

Vote to rebuild Lions Arch

OR

Build a new city in South Sun

If Rebuilding LA:

LA gets rebuilt, you have to donate towards it as well as excavating its now “drained” water system (since there’s a giant hole in it) which now leads to destroyers, Depths of Tyria, other interesting little unexplored ruins below to explore, leading to a certain fiery dragon longing to burn the world above.

If you built South Sun City instead:

Consortium become the major profiting company, Gnashblade takes charge and abandons the Lionguard to bankruptcy, invests in new island based voyages to the sea of sorrows hoping to re-establish trade with foreign powers and the deep ocean allowing for better trade for all! (And deep sea monstrosities maybe even dragons!)

I really hope ArenaNet will be creative when making the tengu.

There are so many different types of birds we could get to look like.

I smell that the day Tengu are released, all Rangers will reroll Tengu and spam dat Barrage in zergs.
Glorious dreams

Actually, the tengu are a future playable race and they come from an expansion land where the level cap is 100, not 80. They also have a tier of gear that is two tiers higher than ascended, it’s called Mythic Trahearnded and it requires your first born Aether Damask which is made by combining 100 Damask, a Molten Jet Pack and a legendary rarity item called "Logan’s Courage 15 Vision Crystals, all on a monthly timer. They also use a new stat combination more powerful than Berserker called Rurick, rumour is it’s the ultimate in recklessness and glass cannon, I’m not sure about the damage, the changes to dodge roll and enemy AI made content so challenging, no-one is able to live long enough to tell us about the damage.

In addition to 20 levels of moar power, the tengu get a damage bonus for firing down at a location. Drop a penny off of a tall building and it can kill a man (it’s a science fact, don’t question it), imagine what a fully Trahearned Rurick sniper (new class because rangers had to be removed when karka became tameable) can do with a gravity damage modifier (a new mechanic introduced when Scalret… oh yeah spoilers)?

Nah. It’ll be like those old JRPG’s where your new party member mysteriously forgets their super-awesome skill as soon as they join your party. (“Oh hai there, Keiran Thackeray!”)

Hello,

I’m creating this post to ask you what got you hooked to Guild Wars 2. What about it made you think this game is awesome?

Here is mine : http://imgur.com/a/bi0yw

I am doing this thread because I hope that the developers for the LS read it and perhaps find the popular things and carry them over into the LS more. I’m interested in what everyone else’s features caused them to love Gw2 like I do.

It’s a picture of Snake Plissken of course.

I’m totally okay with losing Lion’s Arch, maybe even in favor of it as long as this means that

-Each racial city is getting their own mystic forge, portal hub, wvw-pvp portals and Fractals gate.
-Returning or temporary LS events are equally spread apart across the racial cities (Hoelbrak getting Wintersday due to setting aesthetics, Black Citadel getting Holloween now due to the new Bloody Prince connections, Rata Sum and Divinity’s Reach sticking with SAB and Queen’s Jubilee, etc.)
-Certain dungeon armor sellers are relative to each city (Ascalon Catacombs and CoF sticking to the Black Citadel, Twilight Arbor armor can only be bought from a seller in The Grove, etc.)

If Divnity’s Reach is going to become the new hub that everyone is forced to congregate to, then I see no point in getting rid of Lion’s Arch.

Then again I don’t think we’re going to completely lose Lion’s Arch either. Maybe it’s just getting a permanent aesthetic makeover like what the Nightmare Tower did to Kessex Hills. Or maybe Anet has plans for us to reclaim or rebuild Lion’s Arch in a future LS event? Who knows, but I’m hoping this new LS content isn’t going to focus on us exclusively zerging Scarlet’s trash mobs… again. Introduce another big boss like the Marionette, heck a new Dragon champion or… something…

The Ruined City of Lion’s Arch as the new dungeon! just sayin’ Lupicus solo vids are getting old…

I hope Zomorros is the end boss. He takes all your gold if you wipe!

you’re thinking too small. Zomorros would have a RNG chance to permantetly delete one item on your character every time he hits you. Once you are out of items he will start taking away levels on each hit.

Additionally he hits every player in a 200000 AOE every .5 seconds and has 10 million health.

once you reach level 1 he starts deleting your characters.

Layka.7465:

Next time vote Evon Gnashblade and this won’t happen.

This!
We could save the city if Evon was in and ordered air defenses!

The ONLY God that stand w/ us today. Zomoros, God of RNG, a true God. God of Gods!

Who’s betting the kids who have been playing Ghosts non-stop for over a year and a half will be separated? I’m betting a copper!

Speaking of that, I’m wondering how many incidental NPCs are going to get killed.

RIP ogden’s hammer savings guy

That video is killer — definitely got me excited for what is to come. And a bit upset — feels kinda like losing Old Ascalon.

Our favorite mechanized marvel takes on a new title…

YO-LO-TRON!

Bravely throwing himself in the face of danger to rescue citizens because…YOLO!!!

(Not official…but should be )

Logan failed the biggest at the Jubilee, when he managed to protect one child only instead of all the evacuees. Come on, he’s a super-powerful guardian who stopped and turned a hail of bullets of an entire charr warband into rust, protecting himself and his companions. No way he couldn’t put up a shield of absorption bubble enveloping most of the civilians at the evacuation point.

But then again, the “writers” forced Logan, Anise, the Shining Blade, the Seraph, the NPCs, the players, and everyone else to catch the idiot ball and hold it as long as needed, so they could force down their abominable pet Scarlet’s “superiority” on everyone’s throats. I hope the story will go 18+ when it comes to slaughtering Scarlet in the most disturbing way.

Its like some guardian in your dungeon party leave middle of final boss fight to go help another party.

So with the recent patch we are told that when Scarlet dove into the mists something had slowly began to torment her. She’s had recurring nightmares that have told her of scheme’s and driven her into insanity. Now I have 3 main ideas as to who this could be. But first,

NOT Abbadon: When we defeated abbadon we fought him alongside Kormir in the mist. When we won Kormir absorbed his entire being, not just his powers like Grenth did to Dhuum. She absorbed his entire existence into her herself this ending his further intervention in the plot impossible. (However this story isn’t real and the lore writers could come up with many ways to revive abbadon. Hey! The brought back Brian from Family Guy. But this is highly unlikely.)

Dhuum: Usurped by Grenth long ago, Grenth absorbed his power and thus locked Dhuum away. However, Dhuum gets his power from every death in the underworld. With this Dhuum constantly escapes from Grenth’s prison and must be defeated and put back in his place. (Grenth doesn’t poses the power to destroy Dhuum) Yet the gods have been gone for a while, so one can assume that Dhuum’s power has began to reach the point to when he can escape yet again. So when Scarlet went into the mist Dhuum plans to use her to distract Tyrian while Dhuum attacks the gods (Allied by Menzies shadow army?)

Menzies:The evil half brother of Balthazar shows animosity torwards the current gods by making an alliance with Dhuum and Abbadon, yet as of now we have never seen him or know his true intentions. We simply know he is allied with the other fallen gods. He, being the only one whose current whereabouts unknown, might plan to help Dhuum escape and either Revive Abaddon and all three attack the gods along with Scarlets minions or simply break Dhuums bonds and return into hiding. (Idk)

Alt. theory: The tormentor of scarlet could be one of Abbadons highest minion that attempts to use dragon magic to revive the fallen god of secrets. (Really unlikely)

All pieces together: I believe that either Menzies and Dhuum are driving Ceara(Scarlet) insane to help break Dhuum’s bonds of divine magic. Once done in combination of Dhuums power and forces, Menzies power and forces, Scarlett’s power and forces, and perhaps the utility of dragon magic they will attempt to revive Abbadon. When they succeed they will rip the six current gods from where ever they are and attempt to slay them and return to the godly state. (The gods are no more immune to magic then humans are and scarlet could use dragon magics of Primordus for example to revive Abbadon and/or attack human gods.) we as the citizens of tyria are in grave danger must rally extra forces. All five races and the tengu (new race available) must not only fight Scarlett but an Elder Dragon, Dhuum(his reapers), Menzies(his shadow army from th Fissure of Woe) ,and Abbadon(or just minions). Talk about a final battle for LS part one :p.

This will never happen: Before Abbadon was a god their was another that was in his place. We know nothing about him/her and this is their moment to strike and assume power :p. This unknown Fallen has waited very long for the moment to strike and has been veiled behind the shadows of the mists long forgotten even by the current gods. With no one suspecting this unknown entity has planned with Scarlet and allied itself with Dhuum and Menzies.

I brought up the idea of Dhuum and Menzies being the reason behind Scarlet when she went into the experiment. If you like we could continue that discussion in the Thoerycrafting about Scarlet as to make all discussion about possibilities for Scarlet unified in one thread.

OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH
NEW CHARR FACES NEW CHARR FACES NEW CHARR FACES NEW CHARR FACES AAAAH I’M SO EXCITED
I LOVE EVERYBODY!

Slightly off topic – but you know that Happy Tree Friends is like, ridiculously graphic and violent right O_o?
