Hey everyone!
Today we are proud to release the next episode of our latest Living World season, "A Bug in the System"! In this release you'll get to explore the Sandswept Isles and make new allies as you battle against an Inquest cube in addition to Joko's Awakened forces. A new legendary dagger can be crafted representing the legacy of the charr and their legions. New health bar controls have been added to the options menu to make it easier to keep track of your allies. Mystlock Instabilities will now rotate each week making delving into the Fractals a fresh experience. New search-results filtering has been added to Looking For Group. Continuing with our tradition members of the development team will be joining me here for a chance to celebrate the release and you, the Guild Wars 2 community. Thank you for joining us here and we hope you enjoy Episode 2: "A Bug in the System"!

As always here are our ground rules. We're here to chat with you about the new release and content related to the new season of Living World. We will not be discussing or revealing future items that may be in development. And remember that not all of your fellow players may have been able to finish the episode in time for this AMA so please use spoiler tags appropriately.
For those of you that need more time to digest this release before asking questions, we will be hosting a Forum Chat next Thursday and Friday, March 15-16 on the Official Guild Wars 2 forums where a few devs from the episode team will be there to answer questions for you.
Season 4 of Living World is just getting started and the entire Guild Wars 2 team is excited that you are joining us this afternoon. So thank you for all of your continued support, for being here with us, and for continuing to make the Guild Wars 2 community the best it can be!

Edit: Thank you everyone for joining us. Many of us are disappearing to meetings and other work. The occasional question might still get answered by stragglers. Thank you again for being such an awesome community and we'll see you in game!
