I have to confess I'm right there with you. I've mentioned this here and there before, but I play constantly (duh) and have never ever had a pre drop. A couple years ago some guildies and I were helping a friend increase his fractal level.

We were doing T1 Urban Battleground and a random Ascalonian dropped Zap for my guild mate. I just sorta sighed, said "Because of course it did" and continued on. :D

np. Just a question, should I leave this as spoiler or is it not necessary? I placed only because it's about future content, but I may be wrong.

I think you're fine to un-spoiler it. We didn't talk about any story spoilers or anything.

Thank you for rounding up the highlights! Here's the YouTube link for those who want more context. https://youtu.be/A5uee2JcOp8

LOL! As I understand it, because the audio guys were working late one night and feeling a bit slaphappy and it just sorta happened.

No way were we gonna leave that unreleased.

That was fun. <3 I've been looking forward to this all week.

Maybe we'll get to see her in it, just not necessarily from daybreak. I'm sure she'll have a lot coming in the upcoming LS (as long as they go the route people think that they are, with Taimi building golem body).

We don't have footage from that-last week's recording session was all for upcoming content.

Is one of the interviews with Emmy Award-winner Sam Riegel? That dude is hilarious.

He didn't make us call him that, but yes. :D

Ah, nice, more narrative focused stuff! First the PAX panel, then Lore AFC on forums and now this...it'll be fun. It's curious that we've seen quite a bit of narrative/lore focus lately, but I'm not complaining as they always have interesting behind the scenes stuff to share with nice and informative dev guests. I guess it's time to start betting which folks from the Narrative Team (or otherwise) will be making an appearance and which aspects of the narrative they'll focus on (will they, for example, have a segment on environmental storytelling). :)

I wonder what surprise they have in store for the stream, but I like that they'll include snippets of VO sessions. I've always found the VO process fascinating (not only because of my interest in AV translation and the actors' methods of delivering lines and whether they do it solo or get to interact with other actors), and I've enjoyed those ANet VO videos (not to mention the curious cut lines and outtake files) from the past, ...

I'm really glad to hear you like the content! The narrative GC episode was an idea I had when I was down in Burbank last week with some of the narrative crew. I got to thinking that the community might like a behind the scenes look at how stuff got from developer brains to the live game.

Your question about the Burbank recording location is one we'll address tomorrow. The short answer is "Yeah mostly". The longer answer I don't really know enough to answer confidently, that's more the narrative/VO team's thing.

I saw someone say that's Faren's lounger. Clearly they're correct. We mere commoners must never sully it.

New legendary armor confirmed by /u/ANet_Rubi. Sweet.

You go sit over there (you can do that in our game now you know) and think about what you've done.

I am stupidly excited for this show tomorrow. There's a small surprise to share, plus some video footage from our recent VO sessions in Burbank.

Temper expectations, the surprise is almost guaranteed to be related to narrative topic. I'm interested in seeing the footage of the VO sessions, myself.

Sorta narrative related I guess? If you squint? I wish I could give a better hint, but it's not long until tomorrow noon. I'm excited to share, I think everyone will really like it!

Also, the VO footage will be the first of LOTS. We had a camera crew down all week capturing everything and I did short interviews with a number of actors. I've been sorting through something like 60 hours of footage this week, and while a lot of it is spoilery and can't be shown until later, I'm impatient for you all to get a look ASAP so I've been pulling out anything spoiler-free I can find. Tomorrow's show will include the first bits that I had time to sort and edit.

You've done a good thing, saving that golem from all those conditions. I applaud your selfless act.

Bug noted, thanks for the catch :D

Hi everybody!

Since it seems like there may be a bit of uncertainty on this, I just wanted to drop in real quick and clarify that when we say "double experience in World vs. World" for this event, we do in fact mean double WXP.

See you all on Friday!

Heya! I'm sorry, but I can't help with this kind of problem and the best way to call attention to it is to file an in-game bug report (Options menu > Support).
