Bazaar of the Four Winds

There is a lot of interesting stuff happening July 9th - which you can read here in full. Some things I find interesting are as follows....

• Aspect Back Items - Compete in the Sanctum Sprint for a chance at one of these three special back items, representing the Aspects of Wind , Sun,
  and Lightning.

• Personal Quartz Node - Once you complete the meta achievement for this release, your home instance will have a daily resource node, allowing you to harvest Quartz at your leisure . Quartz is a new material being introduced in this release and will be used to craft new recipes!

• Account Achievement Reward System - Put your account achievement points to good use! From now on, you’ll be able to unlock rewards like exclusive new armor skins, weapon skins, and permanent account bonuses as you earn achievement points on your account. You’ll also earn laurels, gems, gold, powerful items, and PvP and WvW rewards as your achievement score grows. These rewards will be retroactively awarded for any tiers of account achievement rewards you’ve already earned on your account.
