Sir Alric.5078

I have one level 80 character for each class, so nine in total. And i have 100% world completion with all of them. And by world completion i mean ALL the maps in the game: Core Tyria, LWS2, Heart of Thorns, LWS3, Path of Fire, and the two LWS4 that came out last.

I suppose it will come back to the TP eventually. Though i don't understand what is so charming about a creepy hentai tentacle head that move his creepy hands behind your back. :/

You can buy more from the merchants in your order headquarter. One sells the weapons, and the other sells the armors.

There is nothing you "should" be doing. Just do whatever you think is fun. You like competition? Play PvP. You like exploration? Go for map completion. You like end game content like Raids? Do those. Ecc.

This game doesn't tell you what to do. It's up to you to set your personal goal and decide what you want to do.

I must be the only one who likes the Personal Story, even though i agree that the last battle with Zhaitan is underwhelming to say the least. Of course, after 3+ years of playing GW2, i have no trouble at all in completing the PS with my alts, but i remember it not being so easy as people claim when i did it for the first time as a total noob with my Elementalist dressed mostly in greens (and a few yellow items i got from drops. I did not know you could buy things on the TP at the time).

Yes, i am. I enjoyed both HoT and PoF, so i see no reason no to buy expansion #3 when it comes out.

Even if he managed to take a city and plunder it, he'd never be able to _hold_ it, and that being the case, in the medium-term it'd only provoke a given race to throw its whole weight behind the war. Joko's a long-term thinker; he wouldn't do that to himself unless he had an ace up his sleeve.

From what we saw in Fahrunur, smart money is that he's staking his victory on reviving the Scarab Plague and releasing it on Core Tyria. If it turns out that his Awakened troops are immune to it, then he'd be able to sit back and let it devastate us before moving in to mop up whatever he wishes to.

Istan would make a great warning as to the price of defiance, it'd give his armies a surge of new manpower before the Core Tyria campaign... and, honestly, he strikes me as the type who'd appreciate the irony of history repeating itself under his hand.)

I think so too. His plan is most likely to recreate the Scarab Plague and unleash it in Core Tyria to kill as many people as possible. Afterwards he will awaken all those who died in order to add a massive number of fresh troops to the undead legions he already have. And then, he will start the real invasion against a weakened enemy.

Or you could just play Heart of Thorns.

The AP system is fine as it is. You are not supposed to be able to easily reach 60k AP even if you are a top level player. And btw, there are already collections for all kinds of weapon and armor skins in the game, so i'm not really sure what the problem is.

This sound super dumb, but i don't really mind Anet adding this absolutely useless feature to the game.... **AFTER** they fix all the other more important things that needs to be fixed, of course.

Sounds like something a sore loser would say. I would just ignore him if i were you. If he could actually hack your account, he would have done it already.

I do play a little WvW when i feel like it, but 90% of my game time is spent in PvE. I don't play PvP. Never had and never will. I don't see a reason to enter a toxic environment full of nothing but whiners.

Btw, looking at the numbers of this pool it looks like 80% of the player base is made of PvErs. Color me surprised (sarcasm).

Hell no! I like underwater combat. I remember when i started playing GW2 in 2014 and i was mind blown by the fact that lakes and rivers where not just some impassable terrain only present for aesthetic purpose (like it was in every other game i previously played), but instead something you could actually explore.

Of course, underwater combat has its problems, but the solution is fixing them, not erasing underwater combat from the game.

Oh look, another "_I don't like this particular mechanic so i want to make it so nobody else can play it_". No thank you. If anything, i have been waiting for years for Anet to fix the problems with underwater combat so it can be brought back to the game in the glorious form it was meant to have.

Why people assume we are going to the Far Shiverpeaks next? There is no reason to go there unless it has something to do with Jormag, which seems unlikely since the ice elder dragon has been put back to sleep by Taimi's machine. Same with the Blood Legion Homelands. I understand that people (expecially Charr players i presume) wants to visit the place, but unless Kralkatorrik does a complete turn and goes back north to the place where he woke up from, why would we want to go there?

Of course not.

I have 8 level 80 characters, one for each class except Engineer.

I'm not a GW1 expert, but isn't that supposed to be Drakkar, one of Jormag champions?

In LW4 episode 1, Daybreak, there is this part of the story where you have to pass the falling bells trap in Fahranur. In that instance, you can interact with the chains while being mounted (you don't press F, you use the special actions skill button). So there is a way to avoid the constant dismounting, it's just that Anet chose not to implement it outside the instance. Maybe because it would cause bugs, maybe not, my point is that they have already experimented with something that could address the iussue (for those who think this is a iussue. It's just a minor annoyance to me).

I have always tought that the mysterious Deep Sea Dragon would have been the last one. If anything, because all the other elder dragons were a more immediate threat than he was. But now that Zhaitan and Mordremoth are dead, Primordus and Jormag are in a coma, and we are currently facing Kralkatorrik, it seems pretty obvious to me the next dragon will be him.

> @Athrenn.9468 said:

> You know what's a scary thought? All Kralkatorrik needs to do is Brand one lich and every Awakened undead in his service would then belong to the dragon. Kralkatorrik could keep Joko as a puppet ruler and effectively govern an empire through him.

I don't think Kralkatorrik cares about ruling though. He just moves from one place to another bringing nothing but destruction in his wake.

> @Tamias.7059 said:

> Are we _certain_ that it's Kralkatorrik that is causing the Brandstorms? I mean, I know that NPC's believe this to be the case, but I'd note that in both instances where we see remote Brandstorms (in Amnoon and later throughout Istan), Aurene is actually present. What if it's not Kralkatorrik causing the storms but Aurene, using power inherited from her grandsire? She would have absorbed more of Mordremoth's energy than Kralkatorrik, and any power that Balthazar gained from Primordus and Jormag was shared between both Kralkatorrik and Aurene.

> Two points against this theory:

> 1. If Aurene inherited the power to create Brandstorms from Kralkatorrik, then why don't we ever observe Glint or Vlast creating Brandstorms? (possible answer: they have the power but learned to control it due to its destructiveness)

> 2. Although we'd expect Aurene to have some of Zhaitan's magic, from absorbing it via Zhaitan->Mordremoth->Glint's Egg, _or_ Zhaitan->Mordremoth->Primordus/Jormag->Balthazar->Aurene, _or_ possibly just Zhaitan->Primordus/Jormag->Balthazar->Aurene, we'd still expect Kralkatorrik to have more of Zhaitan's magic than Mordremoth ever had, given that it was much closer geographically to Zhaitan at the time of its death. On the other hand, maybe Kralkatorrik wasn't located near a ley line nexus like the dormant Mordremoth was. We don't see Kralkatorrik using death magic until after absorbing Balthzar's magic, after all.

>

> One thing that's been bothering me: given that Balthazar absorbed magic off both Primordus and Jormag (and by extension, vestiges of Zhaitan and Mordremoth), why is it that the only magic we ever see him using resembles that of Primordus?

If it was Aurene creating the brandstorm, than said brandstorm would stick to her body and follow her wherever she goes (just like Kralkatorrik's body is permanently enveloped by his brandstorm). Even more so if she is unable to control it as you say. Yet, the brandstorm was only present in Amnoon where Kralkatorrik's minions were, and did not follow Aurene to Istan.

So no, creating brandstorms is a power unique to Kralkatorrik, and will remain that way unless someone kills the elder dragon and Aurene absorbs his magic power. Which won't happen since if Kralk dies, the world goes boom.

EDIT: P. S. - Balthazar is the god of war _and fire_, that's why he uses fire magic. I don't think anyone but dragons is capable of asborbing and using different types of magic at the same time.

Mordremoth was pretty dangerous too. He spread his tendrils across the entire map (from Dragon's Stand to the Iron Marches), destroyed forts, and obliterated the Pact Fleet. XD

But yes, i hope the Deep Sea Dragon (if we ever confront it) will prove to be dangerous as well. Kralkatorrik is doing fine so far.

Sadly, i don't have hope for Primordus and Jormag, after they were both simultaneously put back to sleep in such an inglorious way (two elder dragons pretty much removed from the story, without even a chance to fight, by a machine created by a teenager asura girl).

You meant **western** Tyria, right?

Well, that's what i think too. And west (and south) of the Maguuma jungle is the unending ocean, so that portion of Mordremoth's magic should have gone to the DSD.

X Konig Des Todes

True, but i am assuming that he did. We have seen all the other elder dragons becoming more powerful. Poor DSD can't be the only one who didn't get any stronger than he already was.
