From Bunji on the official forums:
WEEKLY FEATURE
HOUSE ACTORS
- House actors are mannequins that can be customized to have a player race appearance. Once the appearance has been selected, the actor can be set to play an action in your home or guildhall!
- House Actors are created via a carpenter recipe that can be purchased from the loyalty merchant. This recipe requires a unique component that may be obtained from top tier harvest nodes.
- Editor’s Note: Check out Niami Denmother’s excellent write up on House Actors.
GENERAL
- Fixed a bug where getting 100% rent reduction on your house could cause your house to fall off the leaderboards.

XD gotta say, these house actors are awesome! XD
So basically, the first raiders into Dreadscale Maw were getting discos on gear for nerfed encounters, and now upcoming progression guilds are going to have an even harder time trying to get loot for their raid. Awesome.
