Laziest April Fool's ever.

Oh come on Anet, couldn't you just use something from the past years? I really enjoyed the gender switch 5 years ago..

Maybe it's bugged. No, can't be, GW is never bugged!

Actually, I was about to type /AFK in game to sit but I mistyped and did /AFJ instead. Just try it out! I guess it stands for /AprilFoolsJoke. Lulz!

This prank is by a user, not by ANet. Nothing from their part yet.

I love the Dervish update. Now she's not only a nuisance, but an actual menace. With friends like this.....

Unlucky and Lucky titles are now mutually exclusive and behave like the Survivor title: each track resets to zero when an event of the opposite luck occurs.

This would be awesome!

In game, players are disappointed. They are all waiting for something to happen and when told it's all outside game, they are not very happy.

I thought it usually happened sometime around midnight. That was 6.5 hours ago.

I doubt we are getting anything in game unless they messed something up. At least the update notes and the commando page made me giggle a little. I definitely needed that after the night I just had!

The commando profession made me laugh. Everybody would go that class on launch if it was true. Being a sniper with no range limit. Kick ass!

People are saying that going to Euro districts, no one will have a guild, and that's the April Fool's Joke, but iirc that already was going on... so I don't know.
