No those are Krytan textures. Notice the banners similiar to the White Mantle's. Anyways, those are what adorn the rock outcrops through out Kryta. You can see multiple ones in Lion's Arch, simply look at the high stone things, ones right in the middle of the sea, you're sure to see it. /(Run on sentence) Sooo yeap, kinda funny. When I first started playing I thought at one point you'd be able to access them, and it was just kinda like some old school RPG trick. Where the places seem little in the skyline but then you "enter" it and it loads a whole new vast environment. Well yeah, I thought those were cities of their own. /(Noob) But yeaaah bummer that all they are, are the flat sheet textures of all the buildings used in Kryta. its like they just took a frontal picture of the buildings, and stamp them across a rock.

Its the castle behind the gates in LA isnt it? Sure looks like the same design. Though ingame you definitly can't see this much.

I wish I knew how to brouse the dat file, but im too afraid haha.

And as for Antitorgo..after the "fiasco" at GWO, I don't really think you have to prove yourself. And besides, all he's saying is what he found there, not what's being implemented. There may be tons of junk in there never to be used.

Found something odd. There are swords that are found in GWEN, but two swords I have never seen before. They are boxed in red.

Checked wiki and I couldn't find them (in the GWEN list, at least). I guess they didn't make the cut (glad they didn't, they don't look too great :P)

This is kinda like a mood board for Kryta. From Lion's Arch style towers to the peasant houses.

Go to Gunnar's Hold and look at some of the merchant shops. They have those two on display.

I think I can safely say that those swords in the red boxes are a lot better looking than the Elonian Blade.

I concur. This thing looks like something I'd use for butter.

O-O I agree. Good call.

Oh, and those 2 "new" GW:EN swords look like reskins of each other (same curly shape on the tip of the blade, same handle). Lesser and Greater varients of the same weapon maybe?

Interesting....I'm glad several of those didn't make the cut seeing as they were far to over powered..

And I am kinda upset they disabled the king of the hill pvp arena =\ that would of been fun....Why do they add things then turn around and remove them -.-

I mean there was suppose to be a Gladiator Arena with factions, it was even in the hand book that came with the game. But it never happened, why not?

Interesting. That "Last Stand" skill in the uncatagorical section seems to be what kicks in whenever a mission is completed and right before the cutscene loads (so you don't die right after beating the mission, but before it technically "ends").

It's in the Charr alphabet but the characters are a little too small to be read.
We should try and piece together a Charr-English translator :P

or better yet, anet realizes that the auction house wasn't made accessible to players because of a bug (like that boss) and suddenly go "no wonder they were always complaining about this!"
