I'm super close to getting defender of ascalon now...so glad they added the new pre-quests!
Nice to know they are still adding new content after all this time. What are "pre-quests" exactly?

Oh, and since Throbble and I stopped playing there have been a number of Halloweens. Anyone have pics of the masks?

Yeah, it's nice for those of us still playing.  In pre-searing ascalon, once you hit level 10, you gain access to a daily rotation of quests that all give 1000xp reward.  It enables you to earn the Defender of Ascalon title without death-leveling. 

You can also see all of the festival hats here.

Very cool! Defender is a good one.  Did you get a Survivor yet?

My monk accidentally acquired level 1 after a FoW run one day, but I haven't gotten legendary survivor to put in my monument yet...I started stocking up on books to just turn them all in at once for the xp, but I haven't had time to complete them all yet.

Good job buddy.

Off to post-searing?  Or are you just gonna keep this char in pre-searing for shits and giggles?

Nah, moved into post-searing and cruising through when I have time.  It's a lot faster when I only care about skill quests and missions.  I just ignore the rest of the quests.  Having 16 fire magic against low level enemies helps too.

I want to play GW but it's such a pain in the ass getting into a PUG.  4 attempts in 2 hours at Duncan only one of which made it to the actual dungeon door where one of the monks disconnected >.<

Ouch.  If you bug Serria she might try and corral everyone on for a guild run.  Lately I've just been advancing the elementalist I did Defender of Ascalon on.  Honestly though, all the gw2 beta videos are just making me antsy to play gw2...

This isn't really new screen shots from me, but a website called Project Tyria has been taking screen shots from the various GW2 betas and matching them up with screen shots from the same location in GW1.  It's pretty cool to look at for anyone who likes continuity.  I ran into this myself during the stress test when I dove underwater in a swamp and realized I had stumbled into the sunken ruins of the Temple of Ages.

You can see the comparisons from the statue of Grenth.

Thanks to the generosity of one of my guild mates who spent time maxing out all of his materials, I got the gems/ectos/shards I needed to get a set of Vabbian Armor for my elementalist and my first ever set of Obsidian Armor for my ranger.
