'Bout what I expected. Not expanding the bonus EXP/reward track progress either?

The bonuses are being extended through Oct 28, but the world restructuring beta itself will wind down this upcoming Friday (Oct 21) as planned.

He's got it. The cosplay doesn't work underwater because you can't wear the Norn cultural helmet underwater.

Have you seen this one? Temporary, but still good for screenshots

Fantastic cosplays by the way :D

Just to clear up some potential confusion, this doesn't mean that we're one of the final nominees. The process works like this:

  • Long list of nominees announced (<---we're here)
  • Short list announced after a round of voting
  • Final nominees announced in mid-November

So, while this is a big step and I'm VERY excited about it, we still have a couple more stages to pass through. Thank you all for your support of the EoD music since launch!

Amazing work! Wow!
Also totally made my day, seeing the axe I designed made into a real life object! It looks perfect! (つ◕ヮ◕c)

That's awesome! Really nicely done, you've got some real talent there :)

No long break for me, as it happens, but I'm stoked you dug Daybreak. : )

Thank you OP (and everyone else) for the kind words and the Saturday afternoon dopamine hit! I say this often - but working on Guild Wars 2 again, with this team, is an absolute privilege. I'm glad I picked up the phone when JT called.

I tend to see posts like this as appreciation, or even validation, for what we're doing collectively as a studio. While you might hear from me the most (it's part of my job, after all), there's an entire team behind this project that are just as passionate about the game and the community as I am. They're the real MVPs. :)

Thank you very much for the continued support!

I got to meet Joe at the studio some years ago. Don't remember if it was around the 2012 launch or for an expansion. At any rate, he seemed really nice and was wearing that same jacket so he was impossible to miss. :)

especially if that city is in the region for the gathering daily (eg. Hoelbrak when Shiverpeaks Miner is one of the dailies)

excellent video! Perhaps someone could make an infochart out of this

Yes, I found myself wanting a Venn diagram of roles to stats when I was watching this. Very informative though

I'm a heavy user of the wiki and even I didn't understand what exactly was wrong and when it would be fixed :) Just worried that a lot of newer players will be put off from using it and GW2 isnt the easiest game when it comes to learning about specific items (whats needed, what to vendor etc)

Worry not. I can see that there hasn't been less users or less use (pageviews or average time spent on the wiki) of the wikis since the maintenance!

I of course thank everyone for their contributions to the wiki, it's helped me and countless others immensely over the years. I would suggest though that a shout-out to the issues be posted somewhere public- the wiki is so ingrained into the game at this point that both vets and new players are struggling to find information at the moment. Vets can cope, new players may be put off.

The wiki editors did put a big notice at the top of the wiki to let all visitors know about the issues.

32% mechanist in raids. That's not a small percentage. A solution I could think of would be to nerf catalyst!

Hijacking top comment to add a quick note. Internal metrics put mechanist at 20% in raids between Aug 23 - today (vs the 32.76% in the OP). There's a bit of selection bias in the Wingman data, likely due to the nature of the platform and who uses it. My understanding is that it's all self-reported. 20% is still pretty high, of course - not refuting that at all. Changes incoming. :)

Well it was the only way I had any hope of keeping up with his levels of hydration!

This post took longer to appear than I expected. I owe someone $5.

On a more serious note, the next release is on October 4 and includes the competitive-focused balance update that Cal (cmc) and Roy (Roy) are going to preview on Twitch this Friday. We should have the next roadmap and studio update out sometime around that Oct 4 release.
