"unfortunately I got removed from the program a few months back, so all the info i have is slightly dated Last I saw legendary armor wasn't even close to being ready (big surprise) and the lead dev said that it will be ready after the next full raid is done at the earliest. They were having a lot of trouble with the art. In the alpha client when you went to preview the skins your char was completely butt naked, pretty funny actually. Here's the specs I know: Warrior "spellbreaker" - dagger/dagger Mesmer "mirage" - mh axe Guardian "purifier" - mh axe Necro "scourge" - torch + new "sand shroud" Ele - they were talking about sword OR greatsword last i saw Ranger - probably dagger MH thief - probably rifle rev - no idea engi - no idea Expack is in the crystal desert and part of elona. It will deal with kralk and primodious at the same time and some joko stuff i think. There were some desolation and vabbi maps in the client that looked pretty cool. amnoon oasis is also there. there was one called "torment" something but last i recall they were dropping it Mounts will be used for different things, like group travel, combat or traveling dangerous terrain. it was in very early concpt phase and they were asking for feedback on a raptor one. they arent really going to be mounts in the traditional sense from what i gathered. more akin to something like gliding or bouncing mushrooms I wish i knew more but like i said its been awhile since i was in the program so the leaks are running dry. all the juicy stuff i had has already happened Oh yea, the legendary mace "eurkea" was pretty cool. effects were totally done and everything but they dropped it when mo cancelled them it was like an obsidian/lava mace that left jagged obby 3d footprints and left a fire trail. when you sheathed it, it shattered. when you took it out it did this like molten 'glass blower' thing where it was lava then cooled off into obsidian The storm bow on the gemstore was a concept for the longbow, which really sux imo other cancelled content: there were TONS of unused pvp maps in there, there was one that was like this god colloceum thing that looked sick. there was a hall of heroes one too. i think the new map coming with living world might be one of the unused pvp maps repurposed next raid wasn't at all solidified when i was still in it. one of the devs suggested FoW as a possible idea, and everyone loved it. the devs were like "we would love to do a raid in Fow but all the original devs who worked on it in gw1 are gone so we wont be able to do the lore well" or something. which is BS, i would love a fow raid, but who knows what will happen at this point. it sounds like its going to be a single wing, last i heard they were shooting for a november release no problem. just wish i had more oh and if you were curios it was EG that got kicked out for leaking WvW stuff a while back tons of drama on the alpha TS it was pretty funny hearing some devs compltely go off on them They never mentioned tengu or a new race at all for that matter. Safe to say it is off the table no talk about a zone east of TD in the alpha client before HoT the dragons stand meta had another phase that utilized the other area that got cut because they felt the meta was too long as it was, and the area was slightly unfinished I didin't play it myself but another fellow tester told me about it" that's all I have, try not to make them public, but it would get deleted either way.
