Bug Fixes: Moved Greer's respawn trigger area in the raid instance to work properly with the player respawn spot. Fixed a bug in which some items in the Wizard's Vault required Secrets of the Obscure™ to purchase instead of Janthir Wilds™. Changed part of the logic around the Greer event to prevent exploits.

I've got an update for you all on this! You may have seen the announcement this morning that power has been restored to the studio and we are working on getting things back up and running. Because of this we were able to get a couple of fixes completed and ready to go for today. There will be a hotfix later this afternoon that includes a fix for Greer's respawn bug. Hang in there just a few more hours and that one will be settled.

Friday November 22 update: Power has been restored at the ArenaNet studio, and we are in the process of getting all affected systems back up and running. We're not yet fully back to normal operations, but things are progressing quickly!

Hi all, this got missed with everything going on in the aftermath of the storm, but I've passed it on so people can look into it.

Hey everyone, a quick update: As we mentioned on the livestream, we had planned to update WvW Victory Points tomorrow, November 22. Because of the ongoing power outage in Washington state, we will not be able to make that change as planned. After power is restored we'll re-evaluate and update you on timing as we are able.

We've been looking into that Greer bug and we're working on a fix! The ongoing power outage is really hindering things but we're going to get it to you as soon as we can.

Hey all, I want to share a small preview of our plans for this encounter. We've been keeping an eye on your feedback as you play, and planning some updates based on what you've had to say. We've made an adjustment to Decima's health pool that is already live, and will be including some more adjustments in our next planned game update in a few weeks. The goals of the upcoming changes are to make things a bit less punishing if you don't have a full group of 10 players, and to make phase three more manageable. After the next update, Focused Fluxlance will require three players instead of five, the phase transition will end when Decima's defiance bar is broken, and Decima will gain Peal of Harmony every 5% health instead of every 3%, resulting in fewer sparks. We're continuing to discuss what adjustments we want to make after that update, so please keep your feedback coming--and thank you for sharing your thoughts so far.

The GW2 wiki has a list of links that might be what you're looking for. Short story - Guild Wars 2 Wiki (GW2W) Re: LWS1 & 2, you should already have access to LWS1 as it's free with the base game and I believe it unlocks once you beat the core Personal Story. If you don't have the gems (or the gold to convert to gems) to purchase LWS2 you can party with someone who has it and you can play for the story.

Update Thursday, November 21: The extensive impact of Tuesday's storm means that the power outages in the area are lasting longer than we anticipated. Because of this development, we have chosen to void all transactions still in review and return the funds to those of you who were waiting for a purchase to be processed. This will not impact your account status and you can make your purchase again as soon as you like. If you encounter issues, please reach out to our Customer Support team.

I'm sorry about this--we are aware and looking into it!

Update Thursday, November 21: The ArenaNet studio and many of our employees are still without power. We have resumed work today as much as we're able within the current situation, but until utilities are restored at the studio and we regain access to the building's Internet infrastructure, some of our services will continue to be impacted. We all appreciate the support and understanding you've expressed over the past few days as we navigate this--thank you all for your kind words and your patience! We'll continue updating you as we're able.
