Ooze Everlasting Summoning Stone
You summon an Ooze companion for 10 minutes with your current skill bar and attributes set to 12. Consumes 1 skill point.
And a tied idea: Relics
Infinite-use items that consume skill points for personal, temporary benefits. All give 10 minutes of summoning sickness, and you can't use them while under that effect.
Norn Trophy:
For 10 minutes, your Norn skills are boosted to maximum power. Whenever you miss with an attack, you gain 1 adrenaline. Consumes 1 skill point.
Asura Doodad:
For 10 minutes, your Asura skills are boosted to maximum power. Whenever a spell you cast is interrupted, you regain the energy, and it recharges 50% faster.
Ebon Commendation:
For 10 minutes, your Ebon Vanguard skills are boosted to maximum power. You gain +5 to your primary attribute (max 15).
Dwarven Stein:
For 10 minutes, your Dwarven skills are boosted to maximum power. whenever you take damage more than 10% of your health, it is halved. This effect can only be triggered once every 5 seconds.

That's quite a neat idea! Just need balancing. More good ways to use excessive skillpoints is much needed and in this solution you cannot just farm massive amounts of them on one character to benefit all others with them. This can make them an actual resource on secondary characters that don't farm and at the same time offers them a great but fair boost to the PvE skills.
Balancing issues: Norn Trophy, Asura Doodad and Dwarven Stein offer fairly minor bonuses outside the skills boost, but Ebon Commendation's +5 to primary attribute effect is absurdly overpowered and would change the way many builds are constructed, making this a must have consumable for many many builds, so nerf to +2 imho.
Now just the means of obtaining, imho they should be either tradeable rare drops from appropriate dungeons OR untradable free for any character who got to rank10 in appropriate title, usable on whole account.

PvE-only skills and Consumables already wrecked the foundation GW was built on. I sure don't want nor need more of them.

I want only motivation to come back to play... with my Dervish and Paragon (my main classes).
Xsiriss
A REAL content update. Involving a reworking of all PvE aspects to make it rewarding without grinding,involving things like making dungeon chests much better. On top of this,good skill updates for dervish and paragons.
But nevermind that,only stuff probably worthwhile will be the cupcakes. Omnomnom.

An update making gameplay rewarding in itself (better dungeon chests,higher gold rate in general etc.). Help dervishes and paragons. Update/balance crappy skills.

The Birthday Celebration is only a weekend long, if I remember. I would expect it to start this Friday afternoon and go until some time on Tuesday.

Hopefully the event will start on thursday like previous years. Im expecting to maybe get a preview of skill balance changes as well. Maybe some quests relating to the war in kryta.
StormDragonZ
Norn, Vanguard, Deldrimor and Asura skills maxed-type items? What's the point in that if you're already maxed rank in their respective titles?
Kook~NBK~
Birthday? 5 years old? There's only one right answer here:
A Clown, Puppet Show AND a Jolly Jumper!
I expect: cupcakes, new minis, open boardwalk, and fireworks.
I'd like: PvE Mesmer love, War in Kryta quests, A new Zaishen sign post for Vanquishing, (Not mixing VQs in with missions/bounties), and more on the Thackery/Gwen thing.

I want to see a mega event, where all the past events are put together into one SuperDuperAwesome event.
So lets make a list of what will drop from monsters:
Cupcakes
Grog
Eggs
Bunnies
Clovers
Shamrock Ales
Hard Apple Ciders
Pumpkin Pies
Frosty and Mischievous tonics
Eggnogs
Spiked Eggnogs
Anyone +1 this idea :P?

having all these items being able to drop would cause the drop chance for all of them being very low but instead have collectors in town that will trade for all the event type items would be useful
Shayne Hawke
To be honest, I'm not really looking forward to the new content as much as I was before. The only way I'm going to start letting GW take up a significant amount of my time again is if a Gamer festival comes around, or ANet gives us some solid information on how we can expect to reap rewards from the HoM. The Gamer arenas this weekend are a given, and I expected that info so long ago that I'm pretty much removed of caring about it until they actually release it.
Of course, I'll be back to try out the new content that is released as the war develops, but I don't really see that as taking up a great deal of my time in-game.

haha jk i say odd items from around the games things u wouldn't normally keep
sarlius master mage
a new mission, that you can only do if you have completed eotn, where the elder dragons awake and the cataclysmic events that are caused by it (which shape the world of GW2) happen at the end of the mission, white screen and then your reward is a 14 hour trial for GW2 beta!
that way you have a chance to try out GW2 and your introduced to how the world became the way it did after GW1.

The 3rd birthday was Apr. 24 - Apr. 29 and 4th was Apr. 23 - Apr. 29. Since #5 is "bigger" shouldn't just as long be expected? At any rate, it's highly likely that however long, it will last until at least the 29th again since the actual birthday is the 28th (Wednesday).
