First of all, I just want to say thank you for being so active within the community as well as producing amazing content for the game, its been a real honor playing Gw1 & Gw2 over these 11 years.
Second my question being, have you guys ever thought about updating pre-existing areas with new content, by this I mean area's such as orr, it's been 4 years now since Zhaitan was defeated (well for most veterans of the game) and after all this time the risen numbers must be dwindling by now there can't be many left, it's time for people to get out their brooms and do a bit of tidying up and planting fresh plants and tree's to help restore orr to its natural beauty eh :P
The change you suggest would prevent new players from enjoying the old content.
Why are the Sons of Svanir suddenly barely able to speak? Atleast that potion guy seems to be surprised by our ability to almost articulate ourself in sentences. But I can't remember this way of talking from any Svanir we've met before. They all seemed to be of normal intelligence, even the corrupted ones.
In the past those who did not have the potential to become dragon lieutenants were mute and those that did could talk. We haven't made them dumber, we just introduced a class of Svanir that's in the middle.
Note that those with little corruption can always talk normally.
Well damn, been playing 2 hours and this for some reason is the best LS episode by far (can't quite put my finger on it, but maybe i'm too excited). Thanks to the whole team, i think the community often takes what you do everyday for granted, i sure don't.
I have a question for the narrative team or Living world team, I have only seen a little so far, but the Kodan lore seems to have gotten alot of love this patch, will we see something similar for the Tengu at some point in the future? :) Amazing job to the whole team, An Angel is surely watching over your game. ;D
Sorry, no spoilers.
I assume items required for the Cultural Attaché achievement should be given (if present in inventory) to Aurene via conversation as well? If so, the Zephirite Sanctum model doesn't work :C
There is a specific version you need to obtain from a specific vendor. I will double check this item, though, and see if I can repro it on our end. Thanks for the heads up.
Hi gw2 team, what programming languages do you use to develop gw2?
We're adding more and more JS over time as well.
A more general question, not related to the release of this episode - in the original Guild Wars The Mists were this mysterious space outside Tyria, home to places like The Realm of Torment and The Fissure of Woe. In Guild Wars 2 however it has mostly been used for PvP, WvW and Fractals, and has largely lost the thing that made it special. The Mists nowadays feel neither otherworldy, nor even relevant in any way. Are you considering in the foreseeable future bringing them back as a more interesting plot device?
Rytlock seems to have found something otherworldly in the mists recently (see class change).
Curious as to the decision to make the berries have a different icon on the minimal, as well as the gatherables for the grawl heart. Is this something we are going to see more of in new maps or retroactively? And why now?
The new icon was intended to differentiate them from herbs not related to quests / map meta.
Who was behind the Playing Chicken achievement, I loved the little Zelda reference. Also, I love the character development Braham is getting right now. Really nice to get a pay off on the tension we saw forming in HoT.
Ya. Chickens rock.
Hi. I'm not a lore person normally, but were the Svanir always supposed to be extremely dumb? The "Svanir are dumber than Grawl" dialogue bugged into unending loop on my play-thru and I realized that I never thought of the Svanir as dumb, but as sort of brooding, angry and cultish.
Is this the impact of the other dragon's having influence?
Svanir start out as normal norn but the more corrupted they become the simpler they become. Those destined to become dragon Lieutenants retain more of their intelligence.

One of my computers is significantly less capable than the one you describe and runs GW2 more smoothly than you describe. I would suggest sending your build to customer support.

You don't need the mastery. You can pick up the torch as soon as you're on the right story step.
With the setup of the different working groups such as living world, fractals, raids, xpac, and etc. How has this Implementation worked out for the company? Has it created more stability towards your goals or have you had to tweak it over the months.
I think it would be impossible to work with a team this large without subdivisions. AreaNet isn't static. Our current system is working well but I'm sure that we'll come up with something more efficient in the future. We reorganize ourselves regularly.
I was pleasantly surprised to see thermal tubes make a comback in the new map. Does this mean that we can expect thermal tubes and even the new mastery (kodan's flames?) to be on each new map that is released with LWS3? If so it really makes the masteries much more meaningful as they aren't one off things that we use once and never again (cough exalted mastery line cough)
When we design a map we tend to have a meeting where we discuss which masteries fit on the map. The answer varies based on theme, opportunity, and art.
Are we going to see Kasmeer at some point? Also i really hope we will get more snow forest maps in the future
In the immortal words of River Song, "Spoilers...".
What is your current position on the Revenant, and what aspects are you looking at in particular?
Slightly behind and to the left.
What challenges are there to having skills split between the three game modes (PvE, WvW, sPvP) and maintained/balanced by the teams that handle them rather than a single skills balance team?
This is the sort of thing that's designers love talking about but it's probably not something we can cover in an ama. Catch one of us at a con, buy drinks, and prepare to have your ear talked off :)
Is there any chance of dyeable hair accessories by user from their unlocked dye pool? So many hairstyles unused because of limited dyes for that specific use (at least by me with my need for matchy matchy colors)
I'm loving how you guys have handled Aurene from a story and gameplay perspective. Seeing her given more character life by being a baby we comfort and teach is WONDERFUL. So much better than the cliche 'guard this trophy baby until it's useful at adulthood' or the even worse cliche of them simply going unused until adulthood. Thank you so much for giving us a part in her growing up.
Also THE BIG TREES MAKE ME SO HAPPY! OMG. I can't even express how much I love the giant evergreens in this map.
My other requests for 'want this' is storage of the different map currencies we've been introduced to lately...is there something in the works for this or will they stay in our bags?
Thanks for the suggestion on having more hair accessory dye colors available, we'll have some internal conversations on this.
will we get the giant quaggan plushie decoration this wintersdayyyyy :3?
Are you the type of kid who shakes his wintersday presents to figure out what's inside?
