The days of glory

Glory in dungeons! Glory at Tequatl! Glory at making typos!



Smoer saw a jungle stalker named Nala, hers is named Simba! Cute!

We do Tequatl daily and I still love how so many people work together to get that dragon down.

Over 7 minutes left! Nice!

My Norn Guardian. Nice scenery.

Story with my Norn Guardian.

My pet being awesome.

Cool combination armor/dyes/weapon.

I found out that if you lie down on a certain spot near the waterfall at the entrance of TA, you just disappear! Cool.

One night I couldn't be bothered to find a fifth for TA so we tried to 4-man it. On this screenshot you can see how well it went.

Town clothes.

Cool dmg.

Sudden urge to sing Pokémon all together.

We did another Aetherblades run. This time with Aidan! And Saad didn't have to go after killing Spur. It went really smooth again and that makes me really happy.

Smoer and Aidan both got their Clockheart mini now! Congratulations!

Smoer got hammer achievement. On her Mesmer. Okay.

A new chapter in the living story started. Vines started to grow all through Tyria. We also unlocked a new part of Dry Waste including an oasis, a lot of annoying Skritt and a friendly Centaur town.

WARNING! Spoilers in the next few screenshots regarding the new living story and new area.

The oasis looks really pretty, it's also pretty small sadly.

 photo gw521_zpsb5ad0811.jpg









There's also a really strange cave.

Aidan pointed out that the Skritt holes all over the place have a great description.

The new part of Dry Waste, including a Centaur town.

WARNING! Spoilers in the next few screenshots regarding the new living story and new area.

The new living story chapter continues following the new Destiny's Edge. They find a tunnel in Scarlet's old house that leads to the new Dry Waste area. They also find a cave filled with Scarlet's technology.

If you haven't done the story yet, go do it! It's getting really interesting.

A waypoint taken over by vines.

Saad and I teamed up again to do the last parts of the living story. When we ran through some town gates we almost ran into a toxic dumpster.

MAYOR SPOILER. Marjory's sister dies. So sad...

 photo gw533_zps07696445.jpg








The last cut scene of the new living story chapter is so beautiful.

I'm making my new Norn Guardian completely Leopard themed, including a Leopard hat! He looks so cute with it.

 photo gw538_zps43505be5.jpg








Norns can transform into their spirit animals, including snow leopard. When turned into a snow leopard you can use a skill named 'Dash'. It said 'hold to dash further' I tried it out in Ascalon Catacombs and ended up... Somewhere...

 photo gw543_zpsc5c667d9.jpg








While doing story with my Norn Guardian I had to protect this dwarf. I thought all Dwarves were dead but apparently they all just turned into stone or something? Guild Wars 1 stuff...

 photo gw544_zps2e292066.jpg








Ready to greet the Risen.

 photo gw545_zps053e82cc.jpg









When I use the Leopard transform skill my character gets doubled sometimes. In a cool pose too!

Aidan, Saad and Stelios showed me this easter egg in AC. Turkeys!

 photo gw548_zps07b1ea56.jpg









After an AC run I asked: "What now?". Saad replied with: "Now we dance!". After that we both started dancing. Perfectly in sync. Without using the /dance * command that makes you dance in sync. Very, very, very impressive and very, very, very scary.

Hanging out with Smoer's Guardian.

 photo gw558_zps77a12c09.jpg








War zone!

 photo gw560_zps0425a58d.jpg









When me and Smoer were hanging out in the Grove she suddenly called me. There was a guy playing the harp. He played really beautiful! We sat there listening for a while, then he thanked us and left. I love it when people play the instruments so amazingly...

 photo gw562_zps1a0e2817.jpg








Laura stuck in the wall during a horrible AC run.

 photo gw564_zpsc52fd07a.jpg








Spider woman Stelios.

 photo gw567_zps8ccec051.jpg








It took me a while but I managed to reach the second Legendary Llama. Stelios asked what I was doing up the cliff that took me so long to climb and a second later he was at my side. How the hell does he do that!!!

 photo gw571_zpsc5b34b07.jpg








Watefall in the new Dry Waste part.

 photo gw574_zps8c2e8fcc.jpg









One of the new Dry Waste bosses. A Chickenado. Because... Why not...

 photo gw576_zps663714c5.jpg








Cool looking Norn.

 photo gw579_zpscab95f71.jpg









Floating Vigil members. Cheaters.

 photo gw586_zpsc4937780.jpg









I managed to get stuck between a wall and a hill. Only me.

 photo gw585_zpsbc95d1ef.jpg








Ran into this tiny old lady. Holding a dagger.

 photo gw587_zps60d2d719.jpg









Gabriella got an endless plant tonic from her guild leader for her birthday. She can turn into all kinds of trees and plants now. Awesome.

I took the opportunity to turn into a jellyfish.

Almost everyone from the guild joins for Tequatl this days.

Mikey putting his ass in my face.

Stelios asked me to put my graphics high and take a screenshot of his new hair. Really pretty Stelios!
