Summary: Celeste and Allona (like everyone else in the community) can NOT believe how much news came out of TwitchCon! So much that they eschewed talking about any Guild news, saving that for next week (promise!). Clouded very kindly stepped up to join them for Surviving the Mists this week.

Report from Lion’s Arch All Snacker, All The Time (Points of Interest episode 34) <a href="https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/the-scrapper-on-points-of-interest-a-summary/">https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/the-scrapper-on-points-of-interest-a-summary/</a> Rubi explained that PoI is being retired in advance of twitchcon (this friday is the beginning) where they’ll be showing off the druid. Irenio Calmon-Huang! Game Designer! Scrapper name origin - it was a low class warband in charr society, Rubi called them “the outcasts, the misfits” Irenio - (paraphrased a little) “They were downtrodden, they took their punishment and turned it into a badge of honor.” “When you’re working with a bunch of junk you can make some pretty cool stuff so the scrapper is a master of improvisation. Not just the mechanical but also on the battlefield.” “kind of a melee bruiser, he’s also got a lot of good lockdown ability and in preparations for raids, he’s also pretty capable of breaking breakbars” Then Jebro was on PvP 101 with a few options for the scrapper as far as builds, combos and other ideas Twitchstravaganza!

Inspired by speed runs you kick fruit which make platforms on the floor that are safe for you to land on if you hit the floor you lose 10% of your health everyone is normalized before entering (aside from your masteries) and all previous buffs are removed before you begin the adventure Fallen Masks Telling masks to chill a lot is apparently the focus of this one according to Byron There’s mushrooms and decoy-style mushrooms and situations where you’ll need your glider if you really want to be high up on the leaderboards You drive around a charr motorcyle ramping over explosions. You transform into a robot to see how many bugs you can punch in a time limit. Jumping puzzles with transform that give you new skills. Several fun subsections like Quaggan Deep Thoughts, Live At The Crow’s Nest, Community Showcase Live and A Chat with Kit The Traveler
