Lore question. A book in the Shining Blade HQ says that Livia retired from her Master Exemplar role, then spent the rest of her life in said HQ before dieing in 1157. The same book lists a few Masters Exemplar, starting with Laurelai in ... 1157.

Question : how much time passed between Livia's retirement and her supposed death ? Several years (in this case there must be another Master Exemplar between her and Laurelai) ? A few weeks/months (in this case there is no other Master Exemplar) ?

Also, Bartholos' book says it was written in 1089AE, but it also says he gave it to the Shining Blade in 1088AE. Which year is correct ?

I need to know so I make sure I didn't write wrong stuff on the wiki page

I do like the "maps frozen in time" concept, but I'm sure it can be confusing to players outside online communities (:

So, have you considered putting timestamps along with fun lore onto map loading screens, like "Lake Doric, 1234 A.E. - The human capital city gets attacked by the White Mantle, an organization which..."?

Hey Mo, thanks for the nice patch (to all of you). Please hand out special thanks to whoever is responsible for the sounds in the final instance. Those attacks' sound design was on spot and felt very impactful and high in quality.

Hello! Wonderful work this season! I was curious if you guys will have a presences at PAX West {Prime, whatever you crazy kids want to call it} this year? Or if it would be just the community party? I know people want to purchase tickets but are waiting to hear from you guys. And if you cannot answer it outright you can just tell if it would be in our best interest to plan our time wisely at PAX

Who is behind that jumping puzzle?! Whoever it is, I love you. Can we expect more jumping puzzles with a checkpoint system like this one in the future?

Hi Arenanet! You guys have mentioned before that you split the Living World team into three groups, and each got their own bit of the story to produce. My question is: how was the cooperation between teams? Was there a lot of communication between each team, or did they mostly keep to themselves when working on their parts of the story?

After finishing the living season 3 and wrapping up Heart of Thornes, what would be the most insightful things you guys have learned during all those months compared to developing the Core game (for those who have been around for so long)?

Hi ANet folks, I returned to GW2 about 2 months ago after being away for a few years. I really like the Living World content and have played through season 2, HOT and season 3 since returning. From perusing the internet it looks like season 1 was quite epic and I'm disappointed it's not playable now.

All living world content since season 1 can be purchased and played. Will season 1 ever be playable? There are players like me who would love to play it and even pay for it.

Thanks.

To anyone who's in charge of the story. I really got to ask about Rytlock and his story development and of course issues with the revenant I have from an RP and lore perspective.

1. When someone says "Rytlock is the first Revenant," does that mean he is the originator/creator of the profession, or is it that he's the first "known Revenant" or the one that made the Revenant popular within Tyrian Society? Now depending on the answers, leads to an inconsistency which needs to be addressed.

2. With Rytlock keeping his mouth shut through this season about how he obtained his powers (even getting arrested for keeping secrets) how does the Tyrian population come across such knowledge if he's being silent? Wouldn't that mean from a lore standpoint any other Revenant that exists technically shouldn't exist?

This is coming from a fan who loves RP and lore, and I want to respect your narrative as much as possible to further create my own stories a...

Can we expect Legendary Trinkets as possible rewards for other parts of the game such as fractals, WvW, SPvP, and raids? Or will they be tied specifically to future Living Story Seasons?

Any plans to do a core trait/skill update again any time soon ?

The last few were nice but there is still tons of repetitive, mechanically disappointing or just plain sub par stuff in game (Looks at spirit weapons & hollowed ground)

Can you share/hint something about the legendary accessory, please? As in will it have any effect in game, what is it and so on.

Thank you in advance.

Could we get some sort of information about the connection bug. It is keeping a lot of players locked out from all the new stuff and it is frustrating. I understand you most likely working on it, but last time i had this i waited at Lake Doric for hours and hours and would like to avoid that this time by at least get some word if this is a quick fix or something i should come back tomorrow for.

Did white mantle keep instance with a party of people. However, nobody other then the instance owner received credit at the end. Happened twice (party of 4) and then we gave up and split up individually.

Going near the walls in the White Mantle Hideout caused me to fall through the floor and end up outside of the fort but unable to jump off the cliff or move past an invisible boxed area.

Edit: FIXED

The Mastery Insight in Fireheart Rise can't be used. It says that I already got it, but I didn't, so it might be sharing the ID with something else.
