We need new maps outside tyria
Lol!
We still have nearly half the map undiscovered and you wanna go somewhere else?
Never understood some of those cantha, elona threads….
for future ideas :P
Here’s the deal: in order to go to Cantha, we must go through Elona, which is ruled by Palawa Joko who won’t be too happy about foreigners coming into his country and most likely will have to overthrow his regime. To get to Elona, we’ll have to go through the Crystal Desert which is blocked by Kralkatorrik who we’d have to fight in order to go anywhere south of the Crystal Desert.
Shortcut to Cantha: we could always sail or fly to Cantha via the ocean, but Bubbles is out there somewhere preventing all naval and possibly air travel south of Tyria, so anywhere we want to go is blocked by an Elder Dragon, then by Palawa Joko, and then by the Ministry of Purity in Cantha.
Going north is a suicide mission as both Primordis and Jormag reside there, East is prevented by The Scar, west is the Tyrian Pinensula wherein the 6th Elder Dragon Mordremoth resides, so travel to there is impossible.
Good luck getting out of Tyria my friend.
I think Ring of fire is gonna be something like Raid level content area, or at least I hope.
Imagine Southsun on roids, but with actual rewards that reward you for effort. To keep the zone playable.
UW maybe, but I’m not a big fan of rehashed content, love the concept but something new in similarity would be great
Colin Johanson have said that they don’t have to follow one story at a time, they can take a pause, continue on another story and then come back to the other story again.
Underworld makes sense as a new zone, it’s in another dimension, not even in Tyria, Elona or Cantha. The living world events isn’t supposed to be predictable, that would be boring as hell. Some things should just pop up from nowhere and surprise us.
A gate to the Underworld opens somewhere and we have to go and discover it, abyss monsters flood Tyria and we have to find the cause to this leak of abyss monsters. Then we might be able to go down into the Underworld, maybe not directly after, they might continue on another story and the Gate to the Underworld is still there to be seen and they will continue on that story later and let us discover the Underworld and what’s inside that gate and dimension.

Solution: space travel. The asura are probably already working on it.
but to create asura get you must visit the other side first and to get to the other side you must first go without an asura gate first. you have to build 2 gates (not 1 and 2nd pops).
What we need :
UW
FoW
Ring of Fire Islands
Crystal Desert
more comments??
While I am all for FoW, and UW, and even other god realms there is an issue here. In GW1, we needed the favor of the gods and then had to talk to one of their avatars to access their realm. The gods are presently MIA in GW2. This presents an issue with ‘getting to’ a god realm, with the exception of Mad King’s tiny corner of Underworld, but even that still required us to open a portal and fight his minions to get through.
Edit: Additional thought, Colin has stated that we will be seeing new zones with the living story. So we have that to look forward to. As for Cantha/Elona, this would be more of an expansion type content, and they haven’t finalized any plans on how they want to do expansions yet.
If you remember GW1, we had to pray to the gods and pay a tithe in order to be transported to the UW or FoW. Since the gods have faded in lore, we aren’t able to return (aside from the 1 day a year when the Mad King is allowed to leave the underworld).
sorry about my stupid question but what’s FoW?
eventually we’ll take on the other elder dragons and get new areas, but it takes time to devel- plan a war.
