Working with a set of tools that the other programmers have made for them proprietary. How long? All the days. Peter: Chauncey von Snuffles III love child of Matt Laufer (sp?) and Peter, “the people’s hero” The whole conversation has not been revealed. Working title for the party: “Filthy, filthy, dirty ministers.” Wrote the head caterer. To clarify the avatar is simply a representation of the big tree Q: can you tell us if we’re going to be seeing the mursaat again (crystalline city in the vision)? peter: “we’re going to find out in the next episode some of what's going on in that vision” roleplay in the pale tree - speculation of events in real time in game in character we will be seeing more of canach - canach & annise dialogue for the awesome/win speculation: how you dare think taimi of doing anything untoward! taimi is Taz’s daughter, from the look on leif’s face i would say no. A: Funny, I was thinking the opposite phlunting booth - dunking booth Pie vs cake, Peter: Pie Kate: Cake Allona: Team Custard! (it can be in both pie AND cake and therefore wins) seed of speculation with all the world leaders aligned with mordy as the greatest threat, what is the plan to eliminate that threat? (CONFIRMATION: Mordy is an “it” i.e. without gender) can the pale tree and her vision be trusted? what brought trahearne back? Popular demand! Peter: That’s why we’re bringing Scarlet back too! … I’m going to make them kiss! (31min~) C: extra credit - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCDgJiPBxfI I ship it. Leif - composed the musical procession. Rubi pelting them with stuff was hilarious A: Also her off screen squeak laugh was adorbs.   Class Balancings https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/balance-changes-in-the-september-2014-feature-pack/ Elementalist Cantrips - Glyph of Storms for Air & Fire FINALLY apply conditions Fiery Great Sword and Tornado elites to be reworked Engineers revamping kits and gadgets for build diversity Guardian Making spirit weapons have more support utility Reworking elites like the tome skills Mesmer improving multiple traits, utility skills, weapon skills, and illusions improved upon the original implementation for some of the new grandmaster traits altered the scepter a bit, pushing it more toward the condition role awesome improvements to offensive mantras rework of the Mimic skill, which will now copy all boons on your target to you Necromancer survivability through traits and utility skill changes
