Guild Wars We've noticed increasing interest as the Guild Wars 5 year anniversary approaches, and as the small promotional campaign related to the White Mantle and the Shining Blade has progressed. If you're telling your friends and guidlies about it, please remind them of the new security question at the login screen. :-) If they forgot their c...haracter names, it might be a good idea for them to talk to customer support now, ahead of time, in case they want to check out some of the small new additions to the game. :-) You can find a list of support resources at this page: http://www.guildwars.com/support/default.php and for tips on how to speed up recovery of a forgotten character name, you can take a look at this Knowledge Base article: http://tinyurl.com/namesupportSee More
War in Kryta
www.guildwars.com
A militarized religious order that worship cruel “gods” known as the Unseen Ones, the White Mantle once defended Kryta from the charr hordes. But the saviors became tyrants. The Mantle outlawed the worship ...

Found a couple of new incidents in North Kryta Province:
Interrogating Farmer Dirk at the Ascalon Settlement:


Road block on road to/from Ascalon Settlement:


They didn't appear in the same instances (I think you'll get 1 or the other. Also, the dialog for the road-block is suited to the direction you approach them from.

I don't think anyone cares about the Murro updates now that they've been shown to be boring, repetitive, and meaningless with regards to what's going on in-game. And apparently there was no 5th yr content update. The whole 'war has been declared' thing seems to be isolated to facebook.

yeah I wasn't talkin about murro's posts... I was definitely and ONLY talking about the content I thought we were supposed to get in-game as part of the 5th year aniiversary celebration. That was over yesterday.

Linsey's sick, so they delayed it. I have no idea why the skill update is so late, though. It's slated for early May.

I guess they assumed the content update would tide us over until the skill update, but instead we got neither.

Happy 5th, everyone. I hope you enjoyed all of our new.......nothing.

People cant exactly help it if they get sick, and it is worse when they are the lead of a small group, so yeah. From what I have read, it is back problems. I think when she returns they will try and make up for lost time

Edit: the page and facebook have been updated again. They could be focusing on that until Lindsey gets better. This is interesting though:

Yep it was back problems, she was stuck in bed for a few days, from what i have read it wasn't pretty too. But she is doing better seams like she already as of yesterday working slightly on the content from home, i also know that she has already put a lot of work into the content and as for them making up lost time, its possible, but who knows?

Just thought I'd post this here to show others how much longer the War in Kryta event will continue before it resolves.

Jesse Cox: I know that we’re a few days late, but apparently, the Guild Wars anniversary just passed and I saw that there were all sorts of fun stuff to do in the game and everyone was having a good time. Did you guys get everything you wanted? I guess this is for Linsey; did you get everything you wanted into the game for those players who have been in the game for five years?

Linsey Murdock: No, actually, because we’re not done yet. We’ve been running builds over the past month or so leading up to the anniversary and we’ve got probably another month to go before you’ll see everything that we’ve got to celebrate the fifth anniversary. - from Ten Ton Hammer May 1st
While she doesn't specifically say that it will be the War in Kryta that will resolve in a months time, it's implied/inferred that anniversary and War in Kryta are the same thing in the interview.

so that article is from May 1st?? then they werent planning on doing anything else for the anniversary anyways if they still have another MONTH of work to do on it---doubt even she could have gotten it all done in a few days without having been out ill.

and yeah it sounds like it might be closer to the dragon festival time instead....something to look forward to then.

I think she meant that the updates will come in small packages over the next 4 weeks or so. So we might be fighting the WiK this weekend and the final fall out, such as Gwen and Thackery founding Ebonhawke, of the WiK might not be until the end of May, but a lot of the combat and content will come before then.

Does anyone know what you need to do to trigger the Bauer - farmer Dirk encounter? All I get in the North Kryta Province, again and again, is the encounter with 5 peacekeepers asking for my travel permit. I wish they stayed dead.

It's a random encounter, so you just have to keep re-zoning. The easiest way is to go through the portal to Nebo and keep zoning through that portal until the encounter happens. That way you don't have to encounter the roadblock. Just keep running back and forth between Farmer Dirk and the Nebo portal. Hold down your ALT key so you can see if there are any settlement guards around Dirk long before you get to him. If there are, you can turn around and go back to the portal without running all the way to Dirk, saving a little time. When the encounter happens, there won't be any guards in the vicinity.

That's what I'd been told before, but after about 30 minutes of continuously zoning back and forth I gave up. Never anyone bothering Dirk and always 5 peacekeepers blocking the road to LA.

I haven't seen any "Peacekeepers" yet but this morning a Shining Blade joined me outside of Bergen Hot Springs and when I zoned back to Kryta from that area another one joined me. The first one didn't come with


I was looking for the cutscene someone had mentioned but still can't find it. The one North of Bergen Hot Springs.

The other thing I'm wondering is the Shining Blade Camp in Talmark Wilderness I"m sure I followed the map right, or not lol. But is it always there?


This updated thread is very nice to have Thank you!

With the Ebon Vanguard seemingly joining in the fun it looks like they're really concentrating the humans into Kryta and the rest of the races into their own little areas. I wonder if the Eye of the North will eventually be abandoned and forgotten by the time GW2 rolls around and it could be something that the characters rediscover as part of their mission.

Yes. Once a character has finished Prophecies or EotN, the Blade camp is always present for that character.

I gets lost after Jormag drives the Norn (and I would say what humans remain that far north) down to the Northern Shiverpeaks.

The whole 'Vanguard coming down' (of which only a handful did, the majority are still up north) I think is just a prelude to what ends up happening in Ascalon

Ok thank you I'm at Ring of Fire on the char I took out there and up to killing Cyndr in EoTN. I'll try on a different one that's finished and get busy on finishing up on the other one.

That also explains why I see Shining Blade on my char that finished Prophecies then I guess and not on others

Now...white mantles want to attack the temple of ages?? It's true they don't believe in the 6 gods, but...I think they're going too far now!





These are the only shots I took in english..but I guess you all already know the dialogue. I even followed Greves, when he ran away, to see if he could possibly take me to some brand new spot but...you can guess. He just disappeared after a bit.

That's why. Salma hidden in the temple made no sense now. But, as it's random, eventually it took so much to have it displaying. I didn't see it posted before anyway...
