Greeeeat the first thing I hear in this trailer is Inquest, which means another expansion where Naversa will have such a FUN time :DDD Not. At least he has Certh now to hate on them with 😂 #gwtalkies
My Guild Wars 2 OC Naversa, a black skinned sylvari with white spikey leaf hair, standing in an idle pose and looking into the distance

⁕ Age: 37 in JW
⁕ Gender: GNC Male, He/They
⁕ Race: Sylvari
⁕ Sexuality: Pansexual + Poly
⁕ Alignment: True Neutral
⁕ Occupation: Wayfinder and the Commander's right hand
Starting off with a little introduction before I get to yap about my salad >3
#gwtalkies #naversa #gw2
Finished my LWS3 replay yesterday and I can now confidently say that none of my gfs or my commanders took that, pardon me, stupid Shining Blade oath
I'm not as irked by it as the first time around, but I still think it's unnecessary. Good thing they didn't bring it up again so far. Afaik #gwtalkies
Dialogue snippet from the MMORPG Guild Wars 2. It is part of the Living World Season 3 chapter 'Taimi's Game'. The text uses my character Naversa's name as the commander's name and says: Naversa: "The horribly disgusting body part of an even more horribly disgusting giant bug that you keep in the despicable blighting pod fluid?" Naversa: "Yes, I remember, despite desperately trying to forget."
As much as I love the humor in FFXIV, I am doing way, WAY better with this dry, cynic kind of humor 😂
Sadly, a text log can't really do justice to how much the voice acting does to enhance the whole thing, but still, things like these makes the story so fun for me xD #gwtalkies
Day26: Fav OST
For OST, 'Attack on Tarir' and 'Mouth of Mordremoth'
As for songs, as much as I love the OG, 'Fear not this Night (2018)' just hits different. Also bc I remember the community bullying ANet into releasing a full version xD #gwtalkies

Day25: Fav Boss
I love the Dragon's End fight, it's really fun, mechanically divers and I love being a lil whisp 😂
Also maybe unpopular opinion but I actually like the Zakiros meta 😳
And ofc special mentions to the Octovines even if powercreep absolutely destroys them now 😔
#gwtalkies
Day24: Fav Dungeon, Fractal, etc.
I... don't really do this kind of content (yet?) so uhhh... Twilight Arbor is nice for Nightmare Court lore I guess. But yeah, no preference here really... #gwtalkies
Day23: Fav Story Episode
Have been thinking about this for days but I can't really say. I played most of the story like 7 years ago so I have strong recency bias bc I don't remember everything up to EoD
That said, The Departing is one of my favs tho. Really huge shocking WTF moment 😭 #gwtalkies
Day22: Fav Adventure
Eh, I am generally not that much of a fan of the adventures, they are okay I guess. If anything, I think the races are quite fun. Oh. And Salmon Run ofc, I still tend to forget about that 😂
#gwtalkies
Day21: Fav Mount
I was a jackal truther until Janthir gave me big fluffy kitty and de-uglyfied the Warclaw and made it fun to use and now I just need kitty in my life 😔😔😔
#gwtalkies
A screenshot of the completed achievement 'Saving the City of Gold' from the MMORPG Guild Wars 2. It reads: "Saving the City of Gold - Tier: 5/5 - Objectives: 100/100 - Partake in 100 battles for Tarir, and save the city. - Help save the great city of Tarir by fending off invading Mordrem. - Rewards: 27 Points - Title: The Golden Child"
Day20: Fav Open World Meta
#gwtalkies
Day19: Fav World Boss
I have a bit of trouble defining World Boss these days... are Meta Bosses World Bosses? Does it just mean Core Game bosses? I've seen the term used for both by different ppl and honestly don't know anymore
So if the first, Soo-Won
If the latter, Tequatl
#gwtalkies
Day18: Fav Mentor
I don't wanna say Trahearne again but Trahearne
If specifically Vigil/Priory/Whispers... points at Laranthier. I LOVE Laranthier and am always happy to see him (it's always the sylvari that flirt with me lmao)
If SPECIFICALLY the Claw Island Trio, good ol' Tybalt 💜
#gwtalkies
Day17: Fav Armor/Weapon
Too many 😭 I like most of the Sylvari cultural armors, BIG fan of the Rift Hunter and Astral Ward armor sets, Warbeast, Light Carapace, Spearmarshal...
As for weapons, Aurene/Elder Dragon weapons, Nevermore, Astralaria, Equinox... the list goes on 😩
#gwtalkies
Day16: Fav Lore
Late bc uhh I'm super out of the loop when it comes to GW2 lore. I guess Joko's harem was funny x'D And I remember a Critical Role reference in LW4 Season 1 which I celebrated back then. Though I am kinda really into everything Astral Ward these days 👀
#gwtalkies
Day15: Fav Organization
Hmmm does the Nightmare Court count? Bc I don't really care for most organizations that much. I think the NC is interesting in that the fundamental idea they have isn't so bad, but their methods are. Lots of parallels to RL religions if you think about it #gwtalkies
Day14: Player Voiceline
NGL I enjoy a LOT of the EoD elite voicelines bc you clearly hear that the commander is absolutely done and goes unhinged mode (Untamed, Specter and arguably Virtuoso)
But honestly? Personally nothing can beat good old 'I am death incarnate' #gwtalkies
Day13: Fav VA
I'm repeating myself, but the VA for the male Sylvari commander is absolute PEAK performance
The snark, the sass, the angst, the 'commanding voice' that just makes you go 😳😳😳
Brandon Bale is doing an exceptional job in this game and only has gotten better over the years #gwtalkies
Day12: Fav Ally
Trahearne. He's my favorite NPC in the whole game and I'm still a bit salty how he was treated in the end, but it was also a fitting end in its own way
Honorable mention to Canach bc that guy's snark and humor is unmatched
And recently I have really come to like Yao #gwtalkies
Day11: Fav Antagonist
In this house we stan King Palawa Ignacious Joko!
No seriously, he was just the most interesting antagonist to me, aside from the dragons, especially Mordremoth and Kralkatorrik.
But yeah, PRAISE JOKO! #gwtalkies
Day10: Fav Map/Zone
Oof. Tough question.
I somehow really enjoy all the 'dragon' maps, Dragon's Stand, Dragonfall and Dragon's End. Tho Maguuma in general is a fav, I always get goosebumps whenever I look too long at the airships in Verdant Brink
Also a big fan of the Amyntas aesthetic #gwtalkies
A screenshot of four male sylvari, standing in a row and looking a bit past the camera.
Homesteads FINALLY let us put the boys together and man. MAN. I love our accidental polycule™️ so much |D
Left to right: Daren, Commander. Certh, Grand Duke of the Nightmare Court. Cahir, loyal Knight to Certh. Naversa, Wayfinder.
One day I'll do proper introductions 😔👍
#gwtalkies #gw2 #sylvari
Day9: Fav Title
Wayfinder
Mostly bc of story reasons
Naversa, my main, never was the commander, that was his partner's fate. But he DID become the Wayfinder in SotO instead of Daren and I've become kinda attached to the title. I even did the achievements to have it in game 😂 #gwtalkies
Day8: Fav Racial Story
Tbf I haven't played all of them, but my fav is the one about Malyck. I'm forever sad they dropped the thread about a second sylvari tree (you could argue it was turned into a Blighted Tree but afaik we never got confirmation on that)
Well their loss, my tree now #gwtalkies
Day7: Fav Elite
Tough one. If you asked me a month ago I probably would have said Mirage but now? I tried a lot of Elites lately and there are so many fun ones. Chrono, Virtuoso (I'm mesmer biased), Untamed, Deadeye, Vindicator, good ol' Reaper, Dragonhunter... can't really pick one 😭
#gwtalkies
Day6: Fav Race
... I currently have 33 character slots in this game.
Of these 33 slots, I have 3 Humans. 2 Norn. 2 Asura. 1 Charr.
And 25 Sylvari.
I just love these little plant people, okay? 🥹🥹🥹
I can't stop myself, I just keep making more and put them into situations 😭
#gwtalkies
After almost 9 years, I'm finally learning how to play Chronomancer 😂
Am I a good Chronomancer? Not at all.
Am I having fun? Oh hell yeah :DDD
#gwtalkies
Day5: Fav City
Tarir. Does Tarir count? I say Tarir counts. I've been fascinated by that place since I first stepped into it. It's something magical.
If it has to be a populated, hub zone like city, I'd probably say the Wizard's Tower, even if the lag is horrible sometimes x'D
#gwtalkies
Day4: Fav starter map
The Grove/Caledon Forest
Even if I wasn't a sylvari fan I would just love the Grove, it's just such a pretty city and to me the least confusing to navigate honestly 😔
