With the April update everyones raving about coming, the skill balance will be pushed back to May.

Does this mean we will recieve a bigger skill update in May?

The april update contains equipment packs, and every character recieves a fith slot to hold it, does that mean we'll get a 5th bag/belt pouch, or something to that effect? Or will there be a actual tab added to the storage for it?

Lastly, the zaishen menagerie, is that what I think it is, a cheaper way to unlock pets? Is this just for PvP or for PvE as well? Does that mean the rainbow phoenix and spider etc etc will now be completely worthless?

Thank you for reading, hope I can have some answers.

Please read the other Guru threads for partial answers to all your questions, except the one on the May update.

Our skill update in May will probably suck if they don't do something big, because they're spending their time still working on the April update now instead of watching how certain skills are having an effect in PvE/PvP.

There will be a new bag/pack slot for all character in which you will place a bag with 5 to 20 slots to hold armors or weapons. You will have the option to purchase additional tabs of 20 slots in your storage, up to four new tabs, for $10 each. One of these can be earned through an unknown promotion that ANet has yet to tell us about.

The Zaishen Menagerie looks at what pet you own on a specific character and unlocks that pet and its lower tiers. You can purchase tiers and pets with Zaishen Coins. More about it is somewhat a mystery.

This is the wrong forum, and there are umpteenth other threads talking about this already. Be a little more resourceful next time.

No body knows, and the spider was never prestigious, it's harder to get a pet to level 20 than cap a spider.

we will find out in about 10 days or so ;-)

I wonder if along with the HoM changes, the storage + menagerie + zaishen challenge is all the so highly expected April content update will bring. I sincerely hope not cause it honestly doesn't sound that much of a big deal to me.

Regina said somewhere that if we care about skill updates, then we will like the first quarter update. I won't search it up, sorry.

I hate it when you get this - anet gives a small amount of details out but not really giving anything away and you get us wanting to know.Next as details are scarce we often mis information be it on purpose or by accident.
Anet please after 4yrs of gw be straight and post the actuals details for things - say how the new zaishen part works - how the new storage will work etc.
You`ve got it already set and know how it goes so theres no escuse - promotions i can understand being kept secret tho.
Since the announcement of the storage and charges theres been arguements against it and for it - even tho details are sketchy.
Why not do what im going to do - wait untill anet gives full details ( probably on the day ) and then decide what im going to do.Its not going to make any difference to me atm as its not in place and crying over something thats not yet happened is stupid.

Btw Pangarna Omega im not moaning about you as everyone who needs to know something will always ask questions - and your not the first to ask about the upgrade and you wont be the last lol.

I think there will be special pets section, i remember reading that the purchasible part of the pack was for core pets.

They explained the mechanics in detail during an ingame chat session, people have posted the details up and they are on the wiki too.

The Rainbow phoenix and Spider never had any worth or kudos in the first place.

I wouldn't say the spider was ALWAYS WORTHLESS. I mean, back when it was only Prophecies it was somewhat prestigious because it meant you had ascended and not just gotten run to Droks.

I doubt it will be big, as far as skill updates concern. They had to chunk out that part of the update this month for something else. If they had to make so much time to cause a delay to the skill update, what makes you think they will put more effort to it this month? Especially since this kind of an update doesn't necessarily have the potential to be anything of huge circumstance.
