Alright, some of you migh have already noticed this, but from now until Factions comes out Anet is pre-steaming us factions content data. This means that you'll be downloading more than you usually do in all the usual towns. Just so you know.


Also! With new content comes with changes! I, myself, have noticed that our Guild Hall has been 'fixed', and we now see the teleports working outside of combat aswell as during guild battles. And they've made our drawbridge stay down when we arrive.


Just to ask, what sort of visual improvements/modifications have you seen done to our Tyria towns and areas?

Bosses now glow their standard class's color. I think it looks a little stupid, but at least they can be identified easier.

Oh, that's why I had to wait for a long load every time I started up Guild Wars. icon_sweatdrop.gif I haven't noticed any changes myself, since I don't know everything in the first place.

The skills that you have unlocked on any character now can be bought at almost any skill trainer on any character with the appropriate class TheSmile.gif .

That's smart. They give you the info in small bunches so it's not such a long download time.

I noticed there are two guards at Ashford town in Lakeside instead of one, not that it's important or anything.


Female guards are also...ah, more... pronounced, shall we say.

Might be just me, but at Ascalon's main gate the guards seemed to be standing right in front of it in a line. Maybe that was just the particular pattern they were in, but it caught my eye.

ROFL, that is an awesome way for the devs to make farming stressful. biglaugh.gif

"Hey, you notice how many people farm those griffons over there?"

"Whoa, you're right! Let's do something about it."

"What can we do though? If we nerf the griffons' loot, it'll make that place boring and stuff."

"What are you, stupid? I say it's time to unleash the wurms!"

"Good idea!"

*Codes wurms*

They actually nerfed the loot a long time ago. It didn't work. So they added more rockshots for disruption. That didn't work too well. So they put those Scarabs in...it worked relatively well.

Now the monks are in Droknar's farming the trolls bluetongue.gif

*looks at Moo*

Yeah those Scarabs are nasty...

So now I farm the griffons outside Destiny Gorge through the right exit. The griffons hang out in the northern area which is good as. Although I've never encountered the Wurm THAT close... I've only been surprised by him the first time when I went to the northeast patch by the Sand Giants.
