For a future April Fools event, what if they did a throwback to GW1?

A mysterious rift appears, where players are warped to an ancient battle 250 years ago! Join Warmarshell Trahearne in his exploration of ancient Ascalon as he crosses paths with Prince Rurik!

New Dungeon: The Great Northern Wall (Story)
Players will be temporarily transformed into GW1 professions. You cannot jump or dodge, and you cannot move while channeling skills either. Autoattack will deal pitifully low damage, but your other weapon skills and utilities will have low recharges and become your main source of damage. In addition, skills will cost mana to use.

Once completed, you will be rewarded with a set of “Fake-Charr Hide” armor (using fake-fur instead of real charr fur.

Just my idea so far ^^ I would love to see ANET give us a throwback to GW1, while Trahearne meets his previous incarnations.

while Trahearne meets his previous incarnations.

I would gladly pay to see him and Kormir try and steal each other’s thunder

Edit – In a death-match

Edit 2 – Where the survivor is executed

I don’t see that as an April Fool to be honest.
April Fools would be something like the commando-class

Or a jumping puzzle with a lot of possible ways but no one is leading to the chest (But you can see that there is one)

Redoing a GW1 mission in GW2 would be hilarious, and a nice nostalgia trip.
