Guild Wars 2

Are they pigtails? Braids? Pippi Longstocking hair? Not sure what else to call that hairdo.

I enjoyed it a lot. Got every achievement for it except for saving Lord Faren is less than 3 minutes (got a Vet Horror with two Menders spawned on me and couldn’t kill it quick enough).

I love Tara Strong’s work as Scarlet. She clearly had a great time eviling it up!

Yes, evil is now a verb.

So, female Sylvari characters will get to use those. Right? RIGHT?!

To borrow a phrase from the late, great City of Heroes development team:

Soon.

Kain Francois.4328:

Dear Scarlet,

Please assassinate Ellen Kiel.

Love, #TeamGnashblade

Dear Scartlet,

Please assassinate Evon Gnashblade.

Love, #TeamKiel

DevonCarver.5370:

You’ve made a classic mistake in not rolling an Ele. So, my advice is delete your other, clearly worthless characters and roll up a real winning class, elementalist. Then we’ll see you on the battlefield. :P

Sorry to point this out, but you misspelled Engineer. ;p

Regina Buenaobra.6193:

I know that what happens in the Mystic Forge is all mysterious and such, but this is not where babies come from. :-P

You mean… my parents lied to me?!

Wooden Potatoes lays it all out, and kitten… this could seriously rock our pants off.

So much for those dismissing this fractal as “just another asura lab accident.”

Also, now I wish I had taken the Inifnity Ball in my backstory instead of the stupid weather-control device.

I don’t get it. I watched the entire video and still it comes off as “just another asura lab accident.” I don’t understand the appeal.

Well, for one thing, it is clearly not an accident. It was stated to be sabotage.

To Scarlet,

Frankly, my dear, Quaggan don’t give a poo.

Signed,
Rhett Quaggan

Wait… Scarlett Johansson is the Big Bad?

Flame and Frost put us through four months of Charr and Norn issues, and you’re complaining about one month of human focus?

Might want to check the forum more carefully. This video and theory already has a thread.

AnthonyOrdon.3926:

Keep watching the skies.

Well, that was ominous.

Vespertilionidae.5018:

Elbegast.6970:

‘The Quiet Skies’ , maybe? You know, like a ‘calm before the storm’ type of thing.

Where you find and nap under 30 out of 60 Shady Trees located all across Tyria and receive a deluxe picnic hamper that spawns a blanket, picnic feast tray and ants.

That feast comes with pie, right?

I beat her with my Engineer. Quaffed some Elixir X and got 20 seconds of stability to beat her butt into the floor.

Amyami.7153:

Hobo-Tron and Marjory Delaqua for detective duo!

“By-Jove-Delaqua. You-are-a-genius.”

“Elementary, my dear Watson-Tron.”

Lord Erik.6903:

Atlas.9704:

Well they do have Steve Blum for Rytlock, so apparently that had the extra coin to go Strong.

Steve’s been with Guild Wars since Prophecies. I dunno if coin has anything to do with it, or if he’s like Samuel L. Jackson, or Brad Pitt doing films under they’re pay grade, and doing it well.

Mr. Blum is like Mr. Jackson, he’s in everything!

He also hosts Toonami every Saturday night as Tom the Robot.

EnemyCrusher.7324:

Quaggan Storm!

Like Sharknado, but cuter.

That would be known as a Quaggacane!

I’m perfectly happy with these stories being published on the website. Integrating them into the game would cost developer time better spent on playable content.

Probably a late topic (and I can’t find any mention of it on this forum), but as I was watching the latest lore video from Wooden Potatoes today, he noted this:

• The flag of the Aetherblades features a clockwork sword, but also a skull on a red field.

• Mai Trin, the captain of the Aetherblades, is clearly of Canthan heritage.

• Cantha (in GW1) had a pirate faction known as the Crimson Skull, with a similar flag.

• Mai Trin mentioned having to answer to someone named Scarlett, which is another shade of red, like crimson.

Time for wild mass guessing!

Could it be that the Aetherblades are actually descendants of the Crimson Skull? Perhaps a “Tyrian branch” of the organization?

What if the Aetherblades are more than just pirates? What if Mai Trin and Scarlett work for the Canthan government, and piracy is just a cover?

What if Mai Trin’s attempt to get into the Lion’s Arch Captain’s Council was an attempt to insert a Canthan agent into a position of power?

BobbyStein.2315:

Could it be Quaggan Soup?

Poo! Quaggan are not food! Quaggan are friends!

Are you sitting in the central area of the Queen’s Pavilion, and you’ve got that ten minute wait until the next pair of legendary bosses spawn? Are you bored? Here’s some fun things to do with your fellow adventurers while you wait!

• Take out your Hot-Air Balloon Souvenir and type the lyrics to “99 Red Balloons” in map chat and see how many others join in!

• If you prefer the original German version, go with “99 Luftballoons.”

• While you’re at it, discover if there’s enough hot-air in that balloon to keep you aloft by leaping off the upper level of the pavilion with it.

• On your way down, you can now understand how Wile E. Coyote feels.

• Try to get your Mini Watchworks to fight each other in the Tyrian version of the Robot Fighting League.

• Ask Braham where he gets his hair done.

• Ask Rox what is up with her freaky eyes.

• Go find Queen Jennah and ask her why she sounds like the female Commander Shepherd.

• Go find Logan and ask him why he sounds like the guy from Bioshock Infinite.

• Go ask the Queen’s Gauntlet Announcer why she sounds like Twilight Sparkle.

Feel free to add more ideas!

Grimwolf.7163:

“’Don’t blame her,’ Rox said. ‘You’re the one who peed on her boots.’”

….Do insects pee? I didn’t think their bodies worked that way. Don’t they barf up all their waste?

A quick google and we discover that… Yes, they pee. It’s uric acid. They also do #2.

Sir Vincent III.1286:

I understand her belief in her trinkets, but what’s up with the spitting? O.o?

It’s probably the Charr equivalent of crossing your fingers or knocking on wood.

Actually, I was thinking the Mecha Anchor is proof Engineers should have hammers.

https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/delegation/

Enjoyed the story. I wonder if most Charr are as superstitious as Rox?

Also, Frostbite is awesome. Makes me want to give my ranger’s main pet some more personality.

I love the portal gun looking rifle and want it, though Dulfy doesn’t mention where it drops from. Given it’s named Levvi’s Detector, I assume it’s from something on Southsun.

The complete lack of pistol skins discovered so far makes me sad.

Yes, it is random which champ shows up. I got all five as I just traveled around for the balloon tower achievement. Got lucky I guess.

Jennifer Hale and Tara Strong. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Having recently rewatched Panty & Stocking recently, might I suggest hiring Jamie Marchi and Monica Rial sometime? Perhaps to play sisters?

I AM JOR-EL, MASTER OF SCHEDULING!

I like bot butts and I cannot lie!

Braham and Rox are my friends! They knew me right away!

Akari Storm.6809:

This same friend of a friends uncle also heard from another relative that they personally were paid to enter in votes from dead ascalonians, dead krait and many names held by thousands of fallen who are now in fact a part of the Risen army.

Wait, this was a pirate election. The ballots had no names on them. Otherwise, I’d have had to write my name like 300 times. There appears to be a dolyak-sized plot hole in your theory. nods sagely

DeadlySynz.3471:

I’m quite surprised Ellen won myself. Everything I read, it should have been Evon by a landslide. Something is fishy.

Why? It just meant the Evon supporters were louder and more excited, but fewer in number.

Does Ron Quaggan offer the Quagganado Fractal?

I would pay real money for a Quagganado Fractal.

It’s funny how “He/She is Traeherne 2.0” is the game’s version of “He’s the new Hitler!” A completely inaccurate comparison.

Viking Jorun.5413:

Elric.6971:

Also, the ability to fight one of the dragons in a giant golem.

Fixed that for you.

Can the golem be named Gipsy Danger?

Keep up the pressure, Team Kiel! Woo!

Smooth Penguin.5294:

Your wisdom knows no bounds. Kiel’s only claim to the seat is “family ties”. Evon has experience!

Yeah, experience at conning people out of their money and stabbing his warband leader in the throat. None of that looks good on a resume.

Fascinating that the percentages have remained the same. Both sides have kept up the pressure all week.

Jennah needs to act like a tsundere when Logan returns.

“Oh, so you’re back. N-not that I was worried or anything! I have a kingdom to run, you know! You should feel lucky I even spared a thought for you! N-n-now dance with me, that’s a royal order!”

Queen Jennah holds the public presentation of her son Jeffrey. He turns out to be an arrogant little *itch who needs a good smacking. Fortunately, there’s an achievement for Slapping Prince Jeffrey 150 times!

Hey now, you saying robots can’t be elegant? C-3PO would like to have a world with you!

Just ask yourselves if you really want to elect a fancy cat with a lead designer in his pocket. We’ll just have double up our support for Kiel on SATURDAY.

Brought to you by the people against smelly animals in office.

This man speaks the truth.

Remind me which Edge of Destiny member screwed over the others…oh right…the human -_-

Oh please, all Logan did was restore party balance. Six is too many for a dungeon run.

Snaff died because of him.

No, Snaff died because of Snaff.

Explain.

Well, what part of “Let’s mind control an Elder Dragon” sounds like a wise idea to you?

So… which is Boomer and which is Athena?

Northlander.4619:

Hmm. I was going to vote for Evon but I can’t seem to complete his T4 candidate trial after the new patch so I guess I’ll change my vote to Kiel whose T4 I managed to complete. Clearly Kiel has better tactical acumen.

Of course she does. She’s a trained soldier. What’s Evon going to due if Lion’s Arch comes under attack again? Bribe his way to safety? Stab a fellow Captain in the neck and run?
