Lilac is checking out some of the vendor carts near the Leatherworking Station in Divinity's Reach! Make sure you have one of the Chatoyant items active.

Thank you I was searching for my bunny all over Seitung haha!! edit; i think i found one named Salvador in Wizard's Tower but it is a cat :D Were there two with the same name by chance?

Ok, Salvador can be found lounging near the Tailoring stations in Divinity's Reach but is also, unintentionally, a cat. I'll get that tidied up in the next non-hotfix release; sorry for the mismatch!

There were a few matching names this year but I don't believe that is one of them. I'll check the setup, it could be an engine hiccup but if it's wrong I'll update here and get that fixed.

Did you by any chance find a dog named Pouncer? I’ve been looking for her desperately and can’t find her. :(

Pouncer is playing around near the Huntsman crafting stations in the Black Citadel! Make sure you have one of the Chatoyant items active.

If you can keep an eye out for one called Smos I'd really appreciate it. Going to take a look myself but so far no luck.

Smos is inspecting the College of Synergetics in Rata Sum! Make sure you have one of the Chatoyant items active.

I'm glad you like Sesame's spot!

As a note for anyone seeking their pets, each of this years' pets are in one of the major cities and a second time in the Secrets of the Obscure hub area.

We're sisters :P

Chelsea is the artist, I am the game designer!

Nick Hernandez where you at?!?!?!

It seems I have been summoned, haha. I was out on vacation when this happened so I missed it!

If you're curious as to what I would have said though, it's that I'm most excited for folks to get to run around Amnytas and discover the culture of the Wizards, the secrets held in each Bastion, and the things they can do to help deal a major blow to the Kryptis in that area.

I was the map team lead for that map though, so I'm a bit biased.

wow exciting

Gathering nodes are exciting! For some of us at least.

In all seriousness, as someone else mentioned on this thread, it's more of a running joke than anything, and I am really excited about the WHOLE expansion. I was just a player a bit over a year ago, and getting to see an expansion launch from the dev side has been a wonderful experience. It's been nothing but a pleasure getting to work with this incredible team, they've done amazing work. I'm very much looking forward to Tuesday.

And also I hope you enjoy the gathering nodes.

Aww you're gonna make me cry. Thank you so much! It really means a lot to hear this and it made my day! I tried really hard to make those Soo-Won ones as cool as possible, trying all sorts of things to get the surface to look like water, and it makes me so happy that you're enjoying them all so much! 💕

Hey! I'm aware this may be a while back but I wanted to thank you for creating such a masterpiece of a weapon <3 I currently have 105 hours into guild wars 2 in the past week and half, I just got a full set of exotic gear and I have my sights on Exordium! Its a beautiful weapon, the way it transforms with different abilities is amazing and am working hard gathering the materials I'm able as of now to obtain it :)

Thank you so much! That makes me really happy that you're going for Exordium first!

That is correct. When I do fractals, I don't put up the tag until the last boss is at like 5% health, and then I take it back down when the Transit Query comes up.

Edit: It doesn't give a reward of any kind, even though it's an achievement.

I love playing tagged up and seeing a whole zerg of players try to chase me down and murder me. I find it oddly wholesome.

There is also Carry the Creator (do a Raid with a Dev) Channel the Creator (do a Fractal with a dev) and Complement the Creator (do a strike with a dev.)

I would have loved that. But since the guy who wrote their songs passed away, I understand why ANet wouldn't do something like that.

Just for the record, Stan LePard, the person who passed away a few years ago, did not write the Metal Legion songs. That was Joseph Clark, who is still at ArenaNet. Stan wrote some ambient and combat music for a couple of those content updates, in addition to his many years of work on the game as composer and orchestrator prior to that.

The answer is always, "it depends." Some folks can miss details or subtext that was there. Other times a writer infers something that's too great a leap or leaves out important info. Every situation--and player interpretation--is different. And I think that's fine.
