Wish bootts was here but always lovely when its Rookuri, Fornax and Kroof with Jebro ^_^

[@JebroUnity]

We do love the Bootts!

[@nielsjensen4185]

I agree with Kroof, the Legendary Relic felt so good!

[@taylormarzano3677]

It felt better than good!

[@mishking9547]

also just realized this patch is abreviated as "ROD" xD

[@JebroUnity]

Oh MY

[@serenth8310]

Gotta agree with Jebro about raids. More frequent and regular strike content with decent CMs would provide the same content.

[@Moinsen15]

Nice podcast! Hope there will be more viewers in the future!

[@JebroUnity]

We get a lot of viewers friend 🙂

I would have loved to see the new weapons given to us as part of the story. I imagine similar to how we were stripped off gear at the start of EOD until we got out of jail. Would be cool if an enemy knocked the weapon out of our hands and then Peitha throws us the new weapon for our profession and we get to finish the fight with it.

[@JebroUnity]

Cool perspective!

[@Feaniel]

I feel like ele should have dual pistol as well. We already have a mid-range option for main hand, but no mid-range/long-range option for off-hand.

[@JebroUnity]

Potential future offhand maybes? D:

[@Feaniel]

@@JebroUnity I think it still should have been in this update since guards had duals, and they have more options already. I understand Ele has 4x of the skills to develop, but main-hand pistol is a near duplicate of scepter already, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@mua4ever632]

i alway sdid the left and right with my hands to know where left and right is

[@nielsjensen4185]

Btw, spoiler suggestion for your next Lightbringers. Spoiler . . . . . . . . . . Take a picture of Isgarren and compare it to a picture of Eparch. Then look at his castle in the distance and as Boots said, the silhouette is extremely similar to that of the Tower itself. Remember the timeline. Isgarren assumed his some time to look more like a Djinn form after he yeeted Eparch. Isgarren lives rent-free in Eparch's head while Isgarren just wants Eparch to go away :p

[@mua4ever632]

Fornax Krytan Herald is so great at her videos and Kroof im always super entertained watching them... does Rookuri even play gw2?

[@JebroUnity]

Yep! They stream it and also does KZbin as well as having a character in the game! They are an awesome part of the community 😊

[@nielsjensen4185]

Serious visual fix though. Straighten out the hand ion the female model as they hold whatever is in that hand slightly tilted, which looks really stupid if it's a focus or a pistol. Then next fix the female Human and Sylvari model so that the feet and the knees point in the same direction. Third, for some weird reason, the right shoulder on female Sylvari is often too thin and clips. You can really see it with the Magitech shoulders that look fine on Scarlet and clips on normal female Sylvari.

[@margo4092]

Idk, looking BACK, playing it all through SO FAR it worth it for the story, it's just too far apart TO STAY hyped maybe next expansion, if they put them closer together it would feel SO much better

[@nielsjensen4185]

I fucking hate Hell Sister since she has a lot of instant attacks with no telegraph that hit. And Rook is incorrect. The only reason the Soo-Won, or anything in EoD, could be challenging was due to the Jade Protocols. One of the basics of encounter design is that you never include anything in the encounter that the players are unable to deal with, even if they have to go and get the thing they need to clear the encounter. Due to the insane addition that having Boons has to DPS ANet can only make an encounter that has a high DPS requirement if it's guaranteed people can have those Boons. Go and do Gyala Delve with a full premade, do it two times. The first time with no organisation at all, just the typical blob, and the second time you have organisation and everyone has Jade Protocols with a two-hour duration before the meta starts. The difference in time it takes is insane. The reason they need Jade Protocols is that the Boons from those also affect the Siege Turtle when you take damage and when everyone hits harder and moves faster the Tunnel is tolerable. It's the same with Convergences. My fastest private Convergence was about 15 minutes with an average of 17 minutes because of proper organisation. For public, my fastest was 18 minutes and my average is about 26 minutes. You all might be able to notice a slight difference in time spent there.

Jebro you brought up a very interesting point about the alt universe where GW2 is a subscription game. If GW2 is a subscription game, it's probably going to be the top MMO in the market. Creativity truly shines when you have limited resources and that what ANET have been dealing with for a long time. EOD is the perfect example of that. If they have WoW and FF14 budget, they would blow those two games off the roof. Also, Its always fun to listen to Fornax just be unhinged.

[@JebroUnity]

Thanks for the comment! Yes Fornax unhinged is always a joy xD

[@DavySilverwind]

I tend to agree on the gw2 niche. FFXIV and WOW have raiding as their main focus but have terrible open world and and pretty old school combat. GW2 does open world better than anyone else and that's a draw for people.

[@JebroUnity]

My thoughts exactly!
