Howdie all, looks like we've got updates on the january event and specifics on the next major patch :)

https://www.guildwars2.com/en/the-game/releases/january-2013/

 

I'm excited, I hope they add laurels to the monthly for feb rather than jan cause I can see that causing issues with other players unless they plan to give them retroactively.  I don't officially see the fractals update, so I'm hoping that counts as the more upgrades portion.  Ascended amulets and utilty type infusions sound good though :)

Must...Have...Quaggan Backpack... Zoe!! *Edit* For some actual content in my post...they actually stated they will be awarding the achievement laurels retroactively. Not all at once from what I understand, as certain ones need some looking at (Agent of Entropy, for example) but some of the basic stuff like the current Monthly should be right away.

Hm, thought I head that they were adding precursors to the Achievement Laurel system, but I see no mention of it. Was that just an unsubstantiated rumor? Or maybe "content to come"?

They have a large list of laurel achievement items, not just the ones mentioned in the link, here is a good screen shot with some other items https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/colin-johanson-on-guild-wars-2-in-the-months-ahead/ I don't see precursors on the list, but obsidian shards, unidentified dyes, mini pets, tonics, etc... are on the list as well as "class gear" what ever this may be. They mention mostly ascended gear/infusions and cosmetic stuff for the laurels, at least that's the current plan. Fixed missed the quote at the beginning lol

@Zoe, the link has an extra " at the end of it in the coding that makes it not go to the page properly :)

Heh... skinned baby Quaggan? I was picturing a little baby Quaggan eating my stuff and storing it for me, and riding on my back. Question would be, how then do we get inventory out of storage... you hear those stories of dogs eating people's wedding rings and having to wait 3 days to get it back. That sounds unpleasant.

so maybe they are enhancing crafting by including another gathering skill... skinning. 3000 laurels enables you to learn the skill baby quaggan skinning. Another 3000 laurels gets your leatherworker the skill to make backpacks. Yes I know.. I have an illness. Its the violence in video games.
