Guild Wars 2, Chess and irrelevant things like real life.

#MusicHistory On this day, 1980, Pink Floyd released “Comfortably Numb” as a single from their landmark 1979 album, The Wall. David Gilmour’s guitar work is the emotional center of the song, with his final solo ranked as one of the greatest guitar solos ever recorded. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqUE...

Guild Wars 2 and 3 - what we know now ANet said, that they will keep developing new content for GW2, after the release of GW3. In preparation of the release they will return the hall of monuments. Which is a way to register accomplishments and acquisitions that you got in GW2 to get rewards in GW3.
Guild Wars 3 - you bet! At the end of the trailer there is - upper right - a flying thing. And people are speculating what it is. Even axolotl was suggested. It's an otter, guys! Remember the otter enrichment from the Icebrood Saga? Same form, same movement.
Guild Wars 3 - Speculations (1/2) One of the IMO most interesting things announced so far is the mentioning of "skill collecting". Which was essential in GW1. You killed a boss while having equipped a special tool and collected his skill.
Guild Wars 3 - What we know (2) In an Interview Colin Johanson said, that ANet will stick to its license policies. No Game Cards, no Battle Passes, none of that shit. Great. A lot of the atmosphere in GW1 and GW2 comes from occasional players. I really like their more relaxed attitude.
It's official. GW3 is a thing - we are developing Guild Wars 3! buff.ly/w3tbqpd
Guild Wars 3 - What we don't know (1/x) - 4 playable races (bottom right of tapestry), Human, Asura, Kodan, 1 unknown? - Classes/Professions: Not mentioned. But Revenant and Engineer are out, they do not exist in GW1. - Collecting skills by killing bosses, like in GW1 ( mentioned on Steam)?
Guild Wars 3 - What we know. It will be an MMO. It will start in Orr before it sank into the ocean, 1000 years before Guild Wars 1. The trailer indicates that Unreal Engine 5 is used. There will be mounts. The fighting system will be new. A Beta will happen in autumn 2027.
Guild Wars 3 announced! Yesterday at Summer Games Fest ArenaNet announced the release of Guild Wars 3! The trailer is amazing. youtu.be/ITPzxITngqA?...

And the next teaser just released by ANet.
The wind stirs. The world shifts. Stand ready.
Just a few days until we know. But this really looks like the first teaser of GW3 to me.
The developers of Guild Wars 2 sent me a VERY interesting teaser in the mail. But what could this possibly be? A new Guild Wars 2 expansion? A new Guild Wars 1 thing? Or could this maybe be a brand new Guild Wars game? Looks like we'll find out on Friday. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pe5B...

Guild Wars 2 - Apologies (1/2) A week ago I accused new players of bad behaviour. I was at least partly wrong. In the last days I saw several experienced players (400+ hero points) killing the treasure mushrooms in Dragons Stand as fast as possible. So it seems that trolls have found the map.
Guild Wars 2 - Karma Farming For those who lack Karma, here is an efficient way to farm it. Go to Thunderhead Peaks, buy karmic retribution (all you can get) from volatile magic vendors, and do the metas on that map. Alternatively you can buy it in Sandswept isles, and do the pre of the lab event.
Guild Wars 2 - farming Did you know, that after finishing Kudzu III, you will have around 30 plant nodes in Diedre's Steps in Mount Maelstrom, that you can farm daily?
Guild Wars 2 - Bad Habits (1/x) For the first time when a wave of new players enters GW2, they are really worsening it. No idea about the mechanics of the game (which is not the problem, though one can read the wiki) no respect for the game, extremely egoistic for no reason. ->
Guild Wars 2 - dust farming As currently T3 dust is at about 11s, and T4 dust is about 13s, you may find it useful to farm it. Around Lake Tenebron in Fields of Ruin and east of Vipers Run waypoint in Iron Marches you can farm it easily from Brandenburg creatures.
If this Band would live in the US, they would be superstars. Listen youtube.com/shorts/6sUSn...

Guild Wars 2 - VoE Mirrors and chests in Cantora After the nerv of mirrors and chests in Cantora it is still worth farming. Farming the medium chests exclusively will give you around 100 seldom unidenified gear. Daily. There are paths in Blishhud that show you.
Guild Wars 2 Another wave of new players is arriving in the game since Christmas. Lots of them. After a statement of ArenaNet end of November, that said that the Nummer of sold copies of VoE already surpassed that of JW, VoE is probably a major success for Arenanet. Congrats!
Guild Wars 2 - VoE After checking out a few builds I have to say that a nerve is absolutely essential. Or all the old content will become totally ridiculous. A galeshot can control a whole lane in Silverwastes. Dragons Stand can be done with 15 players in an hour. Thats just nonsense.
