Bug Fixes

* Moved the location of the resurrection shrine in the Asuran Lab in postwar Kryta.
* Fixed a bug that left Franklin and Karriya speechless after the War in Kryta.
* Fixed a bug that caused some NPCs to unnecessarily use their skills in postwar Kryta.
* Fixed a bug that prevented some Oppressor Weapons from being dyed.
* Fixed a bug that improperly displayed Queen Salma's name as Princess Salma in postwar Kryta.
* Fixed a bug that improperly shielded characters from attacks when standing in certain locations within the Hall of Judgment.

Guild Wars Wiki Notes

* New dialogue concerning Lieutenant Thackeray and Captain Langmar's fate has been added in the Hall of Monuments after the events of the war in Kryta.
* A bug was added that causes players to be unable to accept the rewards for Wanted quests due to Salma's elevation to Queen.

A nice level of detail about Thackeray and Langmar ...major spoilers though

Thats the wiki notes (so unintentional add); yeah a bug has occured for when you go to accept a quest reward for old bounties pre-war. This is due to the quest specified to see 'Princess' Salma for the reward whereas after the war, the NPC has been renamed 'Queen'.

i thought the names of the NPC were just for the appearence and they were numbers on the other side couldent anet have just had it consider both numbers right when they programed it

What about Evennia? Isn't it kind of important whether or not she reached Adelbern? And if not, where did she end up? Seems the Shining Blade just wrote her off.

Thackery's dissapearance just reeks of Mursaat.

Also, has anyone tried dying the shield and spear yet? Curious as to how they dye.

Maybe it's got something to do with Evennia?

Don't have the shield, but the spear seems to dye the same as the scythe except for the red bands and a few bits of yellow remain unchanged. FAIL.

ugh.....yeah, I can see the red band clashing with a lot of colors, let's hope that's just a bug >.>

Wouldn't be as bad if it wasn't for the yellow that doesn't dye.

I love the red bands. The spear looks wonderful in black.

They didn't mention any fixes to the clipping problems, I see.

How about the wand? It looks like a x-mas tree topper in the original coloration. Hoping for a major improvement.

i hate how the bright red light doesnt dye. It really ruins the whole thing unless you are actually looking for a red color to go with red armor or something like that. Its too bad that stupid light can't change color.

yeah the wand was a super let down---I liked the ones the mantle were using, but wont get the fairy godmother wand, sorry.

so I think there is still something up for the war, Evennia is still awol, thacky has gone and got himself whatever'd.....so they still have some loose ends to clear up (here is hoping for some more quests instead of just dialogues).

I'm so anxious about the next skill update. I can't wait for them to arrive already! This update is fine and dandy, but nothing can compare to the bliss of having new skill functionalities! <3 Please hurry, GW Live Team. :s

They said the new skill update will be AFTER the GvG changes. And, those haven't even rolled out yet. I have a feeling that we have quite a loooong wait for the next skill update (at least another month, if not more).

I always think of Gwen more like this http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.ph...FauxActionGirl.

She's always somehow "leading" and "being strong", but we never see it :/

also remember shes a mesmer. and i believe when you hover over the character selction profession for mesmer it goes something like "these ppl use you to their own ends" or something along those lines. So shes more there for morale support and to influence the army while she sits back and drinks her tea w/ the ambassadors :P(yes i know she wistood the charr but still.. shes a mesmer).

I noticed some new dialog in North Kryta Province, at the cliffs where Lev the Condemned is at. I don't know how to edit the wiki to add it, so I'll let one of you enterprising young fellows do it. I got this dialog after seeing the new stuff in HOM, so I don't know if it's a pre-reg or not.

I think Gwen is enough action girl to avoid it, but Kormir takes that trope to the extreme.

What will the GvG changes entale? Is there a link anywhere on the internet that discusses this?

That was released in the last WiK update (BLA).

Curious to what makes you bring that up in this thread and how you can hate a diverse media form that is made for people of all kinds.

tvtropes= japanese stuff? I'm sorry but you're confusing and generalizing the site based on one example image? It was on topic because gwen is being described as a common characterization archetype, "tsundere" and "faux action girl". You can hate something all you want, but why don't you figure out what is you're hating before you go hate on it.

So basically you hate something without any reason. Just hate it. Generally people are neutral to things like that.

Actually, they never said after, they said it was a second priority but may still be rolled out at the same time as the gvg update-

We are also working on changes to the Dervish, with both PvE and PvP in mind. This is our second priority, and it may or may not be ready at the same time as the GvG changes.

I can only hope that it is ready at the same time as the GvG changes. More importantly though, I hope that the skill changes are worth the time. And for the love of Balthazar, I sure hope that they don't buff skills only to nerf them to an even more useless state.

No you're correct, they have a child that is featured in the history of GW2, so yeah he has to live...or at least part of him does

RIP Langmar. Have Anet added a shallow grave in the game near the lake/water edge?

I mean that is her final resting place, unless of course Gwen decides to dig her up and give her a proper funeral/burial.
