Talk:The Catacombs

From Guild Wars Wiki

[edit] Finally...

... a reason for Rotscale's existence? And the (up till now) unenterable gate? Fox 09:01, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

It would appear so. I always thought the tomb that Rotscale guarded was where the White Mantle unearthed the Scepter of Orr. Still, how the scepter got from an underwater wreckage to Kryta is a mystery. Maybe with the z-axis and swimming in GW2 we'll find out.

Another possible Catacombs entry point in Southern Shiverpeaks?

There are a few other places that I expect to see more of, too :) I used to run sightseeing expeditions for my guild to help members get cartographer titles, and there are several "suspicious" locations around the game world.....Fox 10:06, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

Ooh, I noticed another one of those tunnels in this screenshot of the Far Shiverpeaks, another region featuring in the Eye of the North. I know the Catacombs runs through to Orr, but it looks like it may extend to under the Shiverpeaks. Either that or the Asura must have dungeons like this and Sorrow's Furnace all over Tyria, Elona and maybe even Cantha... the screenshots of the Depths of Tyria here, here, and here seem to reflect the mysterious architecture found in the Altrumm Ruins, Urgoz's Warren, and The Aurios Mines. That would explain why parts of Ascalon look inexplicably similar to parts of the Echovald Forest... *writes all of this down* --Santax 11:03, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

I feel another expedition coming on :) Fox 11:05, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

Expedition? Ooh, sounds interesting :D --Santax 11:28, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

[edit] Most of this page is assumptions and should be deleted

Basicly look at the title, most of this article is not facts it is assumptions bring your assumptions to a fourm or the talk page, the catacombs havent been mentioned since C1 So screenshots, unless accompined by an article are not facts. This is an official wiki not a place for assumptions i petition for a renewal of this page.

Yea, I have to agree with you on most of that. Also, this page lists the Catacombs as being only in the Eyes of The North campaign, which as far as I knew wasn't even verified yet... not to mention the page fails to say that they are in the first campaign. I think this page needs a bit of work. ~ J.Kougar

when i get home i'll send my mesmer thru the catacombs and document whats found there(bosses, monsters, and i'll try and get the map of it although that will be hard with out the red dots because the map resets every visit.

Oh I have a well documented map that I'm more than willing to post here if you'd like, took it a while ago but have everything clear and such. Take a look at my Catacombs Map and tell me what you think. You can click the other versions below it. ~ J.Kougar

use that one i think that is good enough. I may just use Guild wiki as a reffrence for monsters and semi bosses.142.161.69.157 19:19, 13 April 2007 (EDT)

May I make a suggestion when removing speculative material from articles: Rather than it simply removed, can it be transferred to the talk page under a head? Surely a speculation is to be speculated upon collaboratively rather than being forgotten about? --IAmAI 18:39, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Large skeleton in the tomb

When I was doing the quest The Power of Blood on my necromancer I saw a large skeleton for what looked like a dragon underneath the metal bridge behind the third blood fanatic. It is fairly easy to access from Green hills in pre-searing, anyone got any ideas on that? Weaponmaster 09:05, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
