Lake Doric is a zone available via Living World Season 3 episode The Head of the Snake, to the east of Divinity's Reach. Along with Lake Regent to the west of the city, it once formed the Giant's Basin. Its docks were built using prisoner work crews, and has been used by the Seraph as a supply route for the war against the centaurs in Harathi Hinterlands, as well as by the bandits to smuggle slaves to the centaurs.
However, the lake has recently been partially drained thanks to the efforts of the bloodstone-crazed White Mantle, whose siege engines resulted in a breach in the dam wall just north of Divinity's Reach.
| Lake Doric was frozen over in 1333 AE, at the hands of Son of Svanir Bors of the Ice Gavel and his icebrood, on orders of Jormag and their champion Ryland Steelcatcher. Several villagers were made Frozen during the attack. The icebrood were repelled by the Pact Commander, Pact Marshal Logan Thackeray, Imperator Crecia Stoneglow, Rytlock Brimstone, local Seraph forces and other allies. |

Notes[edit]
- Since Lake Doric was released as part of Living World Season 3, experience earned here will go towards Heart of Maguuma masteries.
- The zone's renown hearts have their progress reset daily.
- Upon gliding within a ley-line, characters will gain access to the gliding skills first introduced in Bloodstone Fen. These skills are kept until the character touches the ground.
- A Mastery Insight belonging to a Dragon Response Mission in Saidra's Haven can be seen on the map for this zone. It is not possible to commune with the mastery outside of the Dragon Response Mission.
- Portal to Harathi Hinterlands zone works only in one direction. There is no portal on the other side.
Trivia[edit]
- During initial development of Guild Wars 2, a playable zone, internally known as "Valley_Reach", was planned for this location but it was scrapped very early. [1]
- Prior to the zone's re-release during Living World Season 3, some players in the Chinese version of the game were given a bugged Divinity's Reach Portal Scroll which transported them to the incomplete Lake Doric map instead of Divinity's Reach.[1]
