I got the new infusion.

Once you go white, you ain't right!

Edit:

I had no idea they added an infusion this year. Might be because I kind of tuned out this wintersday.

Buy more gems so you can buy a dragon made of gems! Brilliant! Next month you'll have to buy bags of dragon food, 100 gems each. (The bag is just a bag of 50 gems which Aurene will eat. The rest pays for packaging and delivery.)



... I like to think the light up gems is just something gem dragons can do. Like fireflies and their glowing butts. And she's just doing it because she saw all the lights doing the same. :kimchi:

Just level every single class in the game through crafting, so you always have options when you're feeling fickle, like a sane person. :shepface:

Revenant. Not so much Herald, but Revenant for sure.
You can pick the legends that reflect different playstyles. Shiro is thief-like, Ventari is druid-like, Mallyx is sort of necromancer, and Jalis is sort of guardian. Since you can have whatever weapons and traits equipped with whatever legends, you can really mix and max what you want.

Once you get Herarld, though, you pretty much crap out boons and that's about it.

crapping out boons is actually a pretty huge deal for like 99% of how you're going to be playing pve content. You can handle nearly all of the encounters without having to swap stances or use utility skills simply because you have fury, swiftness, might, and/or regen the whole time.

Considered coming back but I don't own Heart of Thorns. Is it really $49.99? Or is it cheaper somehow if I own GW2 core?

Buying or having GW2 core doesn't do anything.

Buying for $24.99 on Amazon (US) though is good stuff

Somehow, the boy just isn't very buoyant.
Probably shoulda asked this yesterday when I came back playing but:

Mesmer or Revenant?

I have leveled my Mesmer to 18 so far, but then I question how well Mesmer is at end game now. I'll probably end up messing around on both, but trying to decide what I want to main.

I also have an absolute assload of boosts from launch.

1x 80 Boost
10x 20 Boost
5x 30 Boost
4x 40 Boost

I have a bunch of character slots from their pricing error at launch, so I could probably make a bunch of the classes to be honest. Just not sure what I want to do.

Burn your 80 boost on a Mesmer, hands down. They're an awesome class once leveled but heinous garbage to level.

On launch day you'd sometimes get 2-3 slots for the price of one, it was funny.

Yeah. The cost of character slots at launch was bugged and you could grab a ton of character slots for super cheap. I think I have enough slots to play everything but one class due to that.

Sekkira

I Don't Get It,

I wouldn't call it bugged. I got 800 gems for 2g, which I used to buy a slot which then didn't go through and 2 weeks later after I sent a support ticket I got 800 gems refunded and a character slot.

2g was a lot of money on launch day and it took a while for the gem to gold conversion to level out.

Yeah, it also worked in the other direction, you could pay 800 gems for one and get nothing, like you (and me with the 3rd one I was trying to buy that day) - though, how is "buy 1 character slot for 800 gems, have 0 or 2 or 3 slots added" not bugged :confused:

I just picked up the Lava Lounge and it's pretty nice. In total, I own Airship, DR, and now LL.

Airship is the most convenient and Gendarran owns for quickie events, since a bloodstone beast spawns there, and theres always a group for the thief bounty if you're bored being bored. But there's the hiss. Inside the airship there's a broken gas line. It produces a high pitched hiss that never stops and will need you to turn off game sound.

DR is great as well. However, it's the original 1%'er club. I was annoyed at the excessive particles spewing onto my screen. That and DR is a larger and therefore laggier zone.

Hot Take: I like the Noble's Folly pass because unlike the other ones it's in its own instance so it loads super fast.

I've never heard the hiss on the airship 1% area, maybe it's too highpitched for my ear and I'm getting old?
