As long as torches can be taken from the brazier, players have a powerful source of fire magic that is easy to replenish.
There is an event associated with both defending a lit brazier and also the process of re-lighting one should it be extinguished and be in need of recapture by the good guys. These Koda’s Flame braziers are frequently contested by the minions of Jormag who will try to extinguish them. For the most part it involves the use of a two-handed torch that players can collect at a Brazier of Koda, guarded by a kodan keeper of the flame and his little quaggan apprentice. In this zone the kodan teach the use of Koda’s Flame, a gift from the kodan deity Koda to combat the freezing conditions and ice magic that we encounter. Koda’s Flameīitterfrost Frontier expands on the Ancient Magics mastery track that our characters learn at the start of Season 3. A kodan and his quaggan apprentice mind a brazier in the distance. These northern quaggan have been adopted by the kodan and have been taught the ways of Koda’s Flame. Now, “killer whale quaggan” isn’t really a canon name for these little black and white fellas but they’re the kind you find in the Far Shiverpeaks, far away from the grey-blue kind that you find in warmer climates such as the city of Lion’s Arch. The kodan are of course the polar bear people familiar to most norn players and quaggan are based on whales, only small and dumpy. The good guys that we do find on our side are the kodan and some remarkably hardy orca quaggan. Here in the Bitterfrost Frontier there are no norn aside from the Sons of Svanir, zealots in the service of Jormag and all quite beyond reason and redemption. In the far north of Tyria beyond the familiar norn territory we encroach upon the Far Shiverpeaks, the territory of Jormag the ice dragon and its followers. Previously released were the completely new zones Bloodstone Fen and Ember Bay, which I covered earlier. Lots of new content came in with this one and I was most excited by the addition of another brand new zone.
November saw the release of A Crack in the Ice, which continues the story of Season 3 of Guild Wars 2’s Living World.
