Talking with a friend about Marcus and a sudden idea happened for a Revenant Legend idea.
Legendary Beast Stance (Chuka and Champawat)
They're legendary enough to be a weapon, so why not a Revenant Legend too.
Maybe something where there's two sets of abilities based on each tiger, but unlike Vindicator where one echo's abilities are for different usages (dps vs healing) this one wants you to swap between them regularly and combo Chuka skills with Champawat skills.
Like, say one heal skill is an aoe heal roar, and the other is a lifesteal bite attack. If you go Roar > Lifesteal, you deal stronger lifesteal. If you go Lifesteal > Roar, the aoe heal is bigger.
Happy August, everyone! Summer is moseying along with all its crazy weather, I hope you're doing your best to stay cool and safe! This Saturday will be the first Saturday of a new month (as well as the first day of the month in general), which means it's time for another art party hosted by my guild, [VS] Verdant Shield!
For those not familiar, art parties are a concept carried over from Final Fantasy XIV: in-game get-togethers for artists of all kinds to hang out, chat, and create together! For GW2 parties there’s more of an emphasis on hanging out and gathering references during the party itself, and then in the days/weeks following to work on your creations at your own pace and then post to the shared art party tag. We’ve used the same one (#VSArtParty) since the very beginning so you can go allll the way back and explore what people have made! The most important thing to keep in mind though is this: the ‘goal’ of an art party isn’t to be drawn, but to draw others, and share with the community!
Time and /squadjoin information is below the cut, but will also be posted again on the day of the party as squads go up!
Location Information:
I've actually wanted to use Chaos Crystal Cavern basically since the very beginning, but have been talking myself out of it for 2ish years because there's occasional hostile enemy spawns in the area. However, the odd enemy aggroing on to the group hasn't stopped us before, so I'm finally going for it! It's one of my favorite jumping puzzles and also one I've dragged [VS]'s guild members through more than once back in the day for jp races, it's always a fun time! :D
If you've never been in the puzzle area before, there's a bush concealing the entrance in the little cliffs to the west of Old Piken Waypoint, just drop down and swim and you'll end up in the area - no mounts or funny business required!
(The area is actually way bigger eastward than I circled but I'm not redoing all my little notes again.)
Time/Squad Information:
The EU server party will begin at 9pm Central European Time (aka 3pm Eastern Standard Time or 4 hours before in-game reset). I’ll be hosting this one on my EU alt account, so please either /whisper or /squadjoin Stormcaller Nell for a taxi invite if you don’t end up on the right map!
The NA server party will begin 1 hour after the EU party’s official end, at 7pm Eastern Standard Time (aka 1am Central European Time or at in-game reset). I’ll be on my main account for this one, so please /whisper or /squadjoin Vaporwave Nightmare for a taxi invite if you don’t see my customary white cat tag hanging around on your map!
Elder Dragon Vlast for my Gw2 AU. Designed/art by @achromant ! @commander-rox had the idea of Vlast being a Chromatic dragon, to be the opposite side of a coin to Aurene's prismatic magic. I think it was really clever. [SIDENOTE: Achromant I accidentally said desaturated when i meant satured... but it was an easy fix in my art program so dont worry abt it LOL]
Final part of my series of building all Guild Wars 2 mounts in blocks. I wanted a WvW setting for the Warclaw, of course. And conveniently this meant i could duck from building a fullbody, so this one ended with the lowest piece count from all. Anyways I guess that's it, unless there's some interest in seeing some concept art for the builds 🫡
You know what I need in a new map? A friendly Nightmare Court settlement.
Anything that lets them trot out Nightmare Courtiers that you can speak to.
The rest? Dealer's choice.
(Did they wash up in Castora and are as sadistic/bdsm-y as ever? Are they in the upcoming Orr map having mellowed and changed very significantly post-mordy + since Cadeyrn & Faolain and a bunch of others died? We got a Flame Legion arc/development in IBS! Give us our S&M plants dammit!)
Part 8 of my series of building all Guild Wars 2 mounts in blocks. It's been a while since i uploaded the last one. Frankly I already finished the series last year but procrastinated on taking photos/editing them 🫣
Of course, as promised, I brought Malyck! This time, by the grace of the new fashion template feature, he's in full bi pride.
Yesterday, I met someone in chat who, in response to me saying I was bringing Malyck today, said they ALSO were bringing Malyck today, so of course, we had to meet today.
Funnily enough, both of us had made him a thief class AND wear bi pride, without ever meeting before!
Oh, you know how I said I wished I could've seen Trans Rights Lich yesterday? Well...
I quickly hopped back on Kitty to take a picture (with permission).
Saw other familiar faces today, too!
@dukevindication @ependadrawsguildwars2
Apparently, there's an entire guild of Trahearnes! TIL
I started getting pretty tired as the parade continued, and it overall felt more tame than yesterday, but overall there was still a lovely, welcoming spirit.
Happy Pride, my friends. We'll meet again, someday.
