Summary: Celeste and Allona are joined by special guest, Hunter, of huntersinsight.wordpress.com! They were all saddened that there was nothing to talk about this week…wait…pretty sure it was the opposite of that. Be prepared for Feature Patch Feedback Madness™! Audio Version What We Did This Week Allona Keyfarmed my face off. Well, maybe 10 runs over a few days. Got nuthin’ special. Made the mysterious vine backpiece … now for step two ... Did a few more fungeons … which was fun! 11,500 cheevo chest! ~whispers~boughtacommandertag~whispers~ Got my monthly cheevos already! Tested out the new levelling. While not cheering to the rafters, I’m not as upset as some folks … in that I'm not overly upset at all Hunter i have a story got my 15k chest... Celeste Snuck in a few more Keyfarms Got my 7.5k chest Finished Puzzle Jumper for Monthly Started a Charr Ranger to try the new changes. We are not amused, ArenaNet.

Report from Lion’s Arch If you haven’t logged in yet to check out the changes, I recommend checking out BogOtter’s Preview video as it’ll give you a good idea of what to expect. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y312p68sK4k&feature=youtu.be Feature Pack Patch Notes https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/info/updates/Game-Update-Notes-September-9-2014/first#post4380305 Trading Post One (side) tab for everything, most of the big menus are now switching on top rather than the side Delivery Panes is on the bottom of all the menus so that you can see what you’ve got coming very easily New categories, filtering, and search by profession “Minimum buy and sell prices are now vendor value + 15%.” Something that was shared during the latest POI episode was that you can get a more streamlined trading post experience if you type in I am Evon Gnashblade into the search field (http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/2g0epu/i_am_evon_gnashblade_mode_will_you_be_using_it/) Wardrobe Improvements Search by name with equipment and skins outfits are on their own page, showing both locked and unlocked skins along with how they can be attained PvP finishers tab got the same treatment Miniatures can be added to wardrobe, similar to how minis were dedicated in GW1 You can still use them from your inventory but there’s a few other bonuses if you dedicate them. Adding to achievements (would you have to commit them to the wardrobe to qualify now?) - yes They’ll travel with you through portals if you have them equipped on the right tab. (If you just double click them, they won’t stay out) They stack in your bags now Culling in the Advanced Graphics menus if you want to turn off ALL minis (including your own) Item Rewards Crafting backpacks You can get the recipes from your crafting discipline trainers/vendors C: Some of these are really awesome but I hate that almost every backpiece clips with my stowed weapons New discoverable recipes on the low end of crafting disciplines Item Collections We talked a lot about this last week and it’s come into the game just as we thought it would. Collect stuff, finish collections, get rewards. They’re found all over the place! The freebie start one is in the Grand Piazza of LA for the spoon collection. New Runes and Sigils in PvE and WvW there’s a bunch New Combat Log For those of you that are concerned with min-maxing or just watching the data stream past, there’s a lot more options now I like the incoming/outgoing healing option a whole lot Structured PvP Glorious Reward Track - earn one piece at a time by completing the reward track multiple times PvP sigils added: Bursting & Impact
