All charr from child to grown up needs to be exterminated, and there lands returned to there rightful owners of the Ascalonian decendants ...humans otherwise...if I could help jormag kill every charr and invade there home land like they did in the searing days.

Then Humans invaded the place, and the Charr took it back. If anything, it _rightfully_ belongs to the Charr, not the Humans, who set up _their_ new home on the graves of Charr Ascalonian citizens (although one might argue that we don't know who was there before the Charr - claiming land is always a debateable action). > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I miss old Ascalon, too, and hated the Charr for what they did, but after seven years of GW2 I have long gotten over that. ;) > > > > > > > > > > > > You sure old Ascalon was originally charr?

Ha yes that to...as well as destroy 2 civilizations the forgotten and the humans and leave the land a waistland. Only way to make peace with the charr is for them to leave Ascalon. It was never there home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to leave and return it to human control....old Ascalon was so beautiful before the charr invasion. All the charr did to the land is uglify the landscape. Nope. What we see are desolated landscapes still bearing the marks of war and haunted by ghosts. Very few Charr actually _live_ there, with the exception of the Iron Legion military base, namely the Black Citadel, and a couple of farmers, who probably provide for the Citadel. In the upcoming episode, you will get to see actual charr civilization, which combines human Ascalonian with charr architecture. Quite intriguing.

I happen to like what they're doing, most of the information was in the digital magazine in "print" format, this is just turning it into video(game footage) format.

videoboy.4162 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 After seeing the mini-trailer today, I'm guessing they trying a format where they only release tiny snippets of the trailer, then one lone trailer on Tuesday? That makes more sense than when it sounded like we weren't getting anything else until the full thing dropped with the actual release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be story in next weeks update shown by the cutscene of Rytlock talking to that other charr guy. Also festivals go away this map is staying in the game for good.

Anchoku.8142 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Will there be major structural updates and modernizations to the game or a map and a story chapter? Where is 10v10 conquest? Where is Minecraft-like WvW and guild hall building? Where are changes to the combination system to increase complexity and reward? Will boss mobs ever dodge red circles or have boon-hate or even heal-hate? Explain your path toward supporting virtual reality. Is there a plan to permanently split skills between game modes and balance them separately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bast.7253 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 > @"Crystal Paladin.3871" said: > Will full trailer reveal a new legendary weapon? > > Or... Braham get converted by jormag's words and become an icebrood? lol Highly doubt they'll do legendary weapons for awhile but I guess ya never know. The fact that they keep showing bits that we've already seen for these teasers or linking wiki articles makes me think there probably isn't much more to it than, new map, activities, MAYBE somekind of meta event, and a strike mission boss. If the trailer shows anything we haven't seen, it MIGHT advertise somekind of new armor or weapon set or more screenshots of the map. I can get that this could just be a different approach to marketing, but my gut feeling tells me that there just isn't anything to show that we haven't already devised from watching the trailers we've already seen. So, MAYBE a new armor or weapon set bought/made with map currency, but highly doubtful about any kind of legendary, a new fractal, or anything outside of a new map with a few events and activities. Just keep low expectations and be pleasantly surprised if there's something more. We may get to see some more cute little baby charr though, so that's a plus.

I find the other dragons a lot more annoying, because there seems to be no end to them being the center of pretty much every GW2 plot. I am looking forward to them finally being dealt with so that we can move on to other tales. In any case, I am looking forward to seeing her again, just not as a main character. I hope she will help make my aforementioned wish come true rather sooner than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
