Is there any plans to open servers so friends can play together? Many people have returned to the game and have found themselves unable to play WvW together because they are on different servers. A lot of the servers have been closed since the WvW patch 4 months ago.
We weekly monitor world populations and adjust them as WvW players move around.
I mean seriously, how do you lose a city?
You see, there comes a time in every architect's life when they roll a 1...
I love the Amnoon Casino. I hope we see this type of content more times :D.
Thank you for this amazing expansion. Great story, great graphics, great events and meta events... You really did a great job <3.
Stay away from the high-stakes roulette...it's rigged.
How often do you praise joko?
A praise a day keeps the Kralk away!
Is there a specific reason for the inconsistent health of wvw walls/gates (e.g Veloka&Ogrewatch wooden walls have more health than any other tower on EB)?
We recently did a pass on all the walls and they should all be the same health. If you have found a specific wall that is different then report it using "/bug" in game please :)
Do you know anything about a lost city located somewhere in the Riverlands?

Being able to get to different places with different mounts feels absolutely wonderful, but switching from one mount to another via dismounting and then remounting is dissatisfyingly fiddly and frustrating, as has been shared and discussed here on reddit; this may make a player want to take a longer, more boring route just not to spam keys, wait, and spam keys again.
We know that it is technically possible to instantly remount to the "wild" mounts in the world, so have you considered changing mounts to be instantly cross-remountable (with the usual restrictions: not in combat, not in air, enough space) when pressing their respective keys while mounted? If not, is there some specific reason for the current behaviour?
This was considered during development but there were significant concerns from animation. However, we're looking into ways to streamline this process a bit.
Hello there!
I am one of those who really appreciated your work on Path of Fire and I am excited to see what the next Living World will bring in!
My questions are related to Legendaries, since PoF didn't have new ones on release.
1) Can we expect PoF exclusive Legendaries in the future updates? If yes, which types ( I remember you mentioned trinkets in an earlier AMA )?
2) Will there be Legendary Mounts in the future, considering there are "Legendary Gliders" tied to backpacks?
3) I am one of those weird guys that must ask this: Legendary Aquabreathers - will we ever see them?
Thank you all ArenaNet for your amazing production and I surely am one of those that will keep spreading the word! Keep it up!
Will there be Legendary Mounts in the future, considering there are "Legendary Gliders" tied to backpacks?
There are no plans right now for a legendary mount. We don't have different quality tiers of mounts, just different ways to acquire them like griffon vs the other mounts.
Read moreHello, Anet team! Amazing expansion, I feel like I'm back at the original launch... exploring, awe-struck by the views and scenery... really beautiful. Haven't felt like this with this game in years. I'm overall really happy about it. :)
My questions are mainly regarding the story, which I'm just not quite "feeling it" - though it does have some great moments! This will be broken apart for easier dev digestion.
Questions related to the devs
1. Is Ree Soesbee still writing for GW2? Are we going to get another novel by her, or some other author, sometime? I really liked them and I reckon a story of the time Elona was isolated would be great. The fight of the Sunspears against Joko, their resistance, Joko's side of the story or so on... so many stories that could fit a novel so well.
2. Is the open world narrative team different than the main story team? Are they the same? Writing so many stories, ambie...
Sadly, Ree has moved on and no longer works on ArenaNet. And we wish her the best.
The Narrative team for PoF had specific assignments, but there was a ton of overlap and virtually every Narrative person contributed to both open world and story steps.
~hello, this message is for MO
There were some leaks around the reddit lately regarding easy and hard mode raids: 1 . Crystal Reid said on forums that you won't be adding a different difficulty tier at this time. Has this changed meantime?
How are things progressing with the next raid? We've been waiting for a while now and surely would like to hear some info. What rewards / system will the new raid use? Will it be only skins or there will be new infusions, gizmos like xera portal?
Hi! That message is really for Crystal! Her recent forum thread is still the right answer: we're not working on different difficulty tiers. We're focused on making great content and don't want to slow that down by multiplying the amount of work. We're hard at work on the next raid and development is going well; no announcements today.

I just wanted to say I love whoever put that mastery point in the tomb of primeval kings, it took me a while to figure out how to get it, and I ended up doing a really cool gryphon dive from outside near the Jackal portal hero point, entering the building and then rising up to the mastery point. It felt really satisfying. I hope you include more stuff like that in the future even though I'm pretty sure there's a way to get it with just the bunny.
It was intended for Griffon although your way of getting it was WAY fancier than the way I envisioned. Good job :D

sadly probably not - we are already using very large textures for the sky and making them larger could reduce perf or cause other issues. sorry :(
