Personal Story for human (unknown parents) reveals the white mantle still exist and provides basic lore.
Speaking with Shining Blade NPCs / Countess Anise also reveals some lore.
Not sure, but I think there may be interactable objects in Durmand Priory that concerns Mursaat and White Mantle.
And of course the season 3 storyline provides more than enough for a basic grounding if you pay attention
Basically, there was trouble brewing in Kryta with the bandits getting all worked up over something. Turns out it was a minister rallying them under the banner of the White Mantle. The group traveled to the Bloodstone and attempted to awaken the Mursaat – awakening Lazarus the Dire, who would help them reclaim Kryta as he and his kind had done in the past… or so they thought. Lazarus kinda shrugged his shoulders at the White Mantle and left with barely a ‘screw you guys, I’m going home". He later approached the Commander with an offer of alliance against the Elder Dragons. Against the Commander’s better judgement, Marjoy goes with him. Meanwhile, Taimi noticed some strange readings with the dragon energy, and sent you to check out the minions of Primordus and Jormag who were both beginning to stir into awakening following the deaths of Zhaitan and Mordremoth. Turns out that killing one dragon allows the others to absorb the left over energy and add it to their own. It later turns out the killing the dragons is not a good thing, as doing so will eventually cause Tyria to be destroyed. Marjory returns to let the commander know that Lazarus is not at all what he seems to be, and when confronted he reveals himself to be Balthazar, the Human god of Fire and War. He has been weakened by a loss of power and sees the dragons as a new energy source… One he plans to tap into even if it means destroying the world as we know it.
Following the Raid storyline, we discover the White Mantle had several ‘aspects’ of Lazarus the Dire that they had planned to bring together to resurrect him fully. Minister Caudecus had hidden one of the aspects, leading to the botched ritual in Bloodstone Fen. In the process of tracking down Balthazar, the Commander runs into Anise, who sends them to find a missing Shining Blade Exemplar who was tracking the last missing aspect. Once found, it is revealed the Exemplar plans to use the aspects to revive the true Lazarus in order to destroy him fully once and for all.
All the power line must be active for the shield to pop (at least it worked like that for me).
re: the puzzles: I hate JPs… and to have one (even one as basic as ’jump, walk, jump) for the mission made me grunt in frustration. That said, I enjoyed the bloodstone trap puzzles. Maybe not the knockback caused by the exploding guys, but still…
The part with the Self Doubt… You can either muscle through a very long fight with cooldown on weapon skills (Fearless Achievement) or you can ‘seek closure’ by approaching the reproachful spirits (Fearful Achievement).
I got disconnected just after the fight during the talky part….going to have to go through it again. At least I can try to do the fight the long way and get Fearless achievement this time lol
The Henge of Denravi sequence made me giggle… the acting was so horrible lol ^^
have to line up so only three power lines are active on one side. then deactivate them with a throw to the center.
I put all power lines up and the shield dropped. Try that?
ALL of my “yes”! Seriously, shut up and take my money (to quote Fry). Personally, I don’t mind the over-the-top designs of armor and such in the game, but I have passed the various NPCs and found myself stopping and just admiring the simplicity of their outfits. I have a few characters that I think would look better with a “less is more” approach to armor, and those pre-existing NPC clothes would be perfect.
For re-gifter, you have to pick up the gift from the middle of the map and run it back to your base. A new gift will appear shortly after the last one was taken to the base. That is the whole objective of the Snowball Mayhem activity…return as many gifts to your home base as possible (while killing other players…but that goes without saying as all activities seem to be pvp oriented. >.<)
Cat ears.
Medium armor that isn’t long jacket/pants.
Cat ears.
Race change option.
Cat ears.
Pants for female human town clothes (instead of the skirt.)
also…CAT EARS! :p
I un-installed, redownloaded and installed. Works now.
Good Luck.
I did the same, and likewise the game works now.
There should be an easier way than to put you through the agony of un-installing, re-download, and install, especially for people who doesn’t have a super-fast connection.
I agree! Took me almost 24 hours :p
I am also experiencing this crash. I log in and select a character, the game then begins to load only to be taken back to the game launcher.
