Guild Wars 2

I didn’t start playing the game until about 6 weeks after launch. Will we still get a bday present when our characters are 1 year old? Or only if you started at launch?

You get a birthday present on each characters birthday. So if you made them 6 weeks after launch, it will be 1 year later.

Wait, what!? Surely if their character is 6 weeks after launch then they will get their present 6 weeks after launch? Other than the fact it was announced on the same page as the next LS, there is nothing actually linking it with the event. In GW1 the presents were just linked to the individual characters birthday so I think it would be a safe bet on this being the same. It wouldn’t be much of a birthday present if it wasn’t actually on your characters birthday.

I’m pretty sure that’s what he meant by 1 year later: 1 year from the day you created your character.

Unless it’s totally different from GW, that’s how I expect it to work.

One year after character creation in your character’s birthday. Soooo. If you created a character 6 weeks after launch then it will be a a year from that date.

I meant a year from the date of creation.
