Are you itching for some new content in Guild Wars 2? If so, a new update was released that introduced a new Fractal of the Mists called Silent Surf.
Fractals in Guild Wars 2 are like dungeons with 100 levels of increasingly difficult enemies. That said, the latest update added the new Silent Surf Fractal where you take on the role of a Serpent Clan salvage crew, headed by Captain Thess, in search of possible survivors beneath the petrified sea. It looks like a new threat has emerged in the aftermath of the Jade Wind, so be careful out there!
Aside from that, a new rewards tab for Silent Surf has been added to BLING-9009's inventory. This golem merchant can be found in the Mistlock Observatory in the Fractals of the Mists, for those who don't know.
