Word counter says that post #162 had more words and characters than post #165.

And the latter is the one where it turned up.

Patch feels a bit thin on the pve side, then I remembered they adjusted all of the 2.0 instances. I've long reasoned that fixing old stuff is worth doing to improve the new player experience, praetorium especially, so I'm ok with that eating some resources. By the time we reach next expansion they'll have touched up all post-2.0 stuff and added them to duty support system, and then the graphics upgrades roll out for 7.0. For the love of God somebody improve the plant resolution in Elpis lol

If you say so.

Anything that's below the like-counter is a sig (or the edit message).
Can't manually add something there during a post.

As much as I hated how they decoupled Crafters and Gatherers from having the same tribe for their quests back in Shadowbringers it would be great if it could be used to give us a reason to go back to Garlemald, so I can safely ignore whatever is up with that Cafe the Loporrits set up at the edge of the universe.

The details as to what, exactly, the Island Sanctuary might involve are unfortunately very vague but I do hope it's a step in the direction of helping provide a stable food source for the displaced Garleans. Having the Garleans reclaim the lands they occupied before the horrific attempt at genocide was made upon their people would have been an interesting way to break the cycle of conflict. Though if Corvos is ever added, it seems it'll be yet another story dominated by...G'raha Tia. Alas!

If a post is edited or made from a mobile device, a forum signature doesn't necessarily show automatically. Though, honestly, I'm a little confused as to why a picture of a cute, innocent looking cat is supposedly controversial in the first place...

It isn't. I was just noting that the sig typically appears when Kizuya is being snarky.

They say it's a coincidence, because they happened to post from their computer instead of their mobile on said posts. I dropped it.

---

That was supposed to be a fakeout? I thought it was blatantly obvious that the avatar was referring to themself returning to the Void, and not some kind of stealth comeback for Zenos

In the JP dub it's even more obvious, since the avatar and Zenos even have completely different speech patterns

Crack pot theory here. Given their renewed focus on the PvP systems. The Garleans going to the money and settling could create a sort of clan invasion scenario ala Battletech. SE could allow a player to back either. Furthermore, they might change the remaining Garleans into a confederation of clan based around the remaining legions and role within moon settlement.
