Guild Wars 2

I’ve nearly completed the Personal Story for my YouTube channel, but have been stopped short of Zhaitan due to the unsoloable Dungeon before me. I’ve been working on getting some friends together so I can wrap this up and finally move on to the Living World, but I need the answer to the question in the title: In a Dungeon instance, which character appears in conversations? Is it always the party leader or the player who instigates the conversation? It’s important because the entire series is just me sarcastically commentating on the story, so it would break continuity to have another character appear.

Another related question comes to mind: If I need to grab a PUG to do this, how is skipping cutscenes handled? Do other players need to wait if they choose to skip, or does everyone see the same scene and vote to skip as in GW1?

I think it might be the person that opens the dungeon instance, that gets the spotlight in cinematics. But I can’t say for sure.

Regarding skipping, if you skip the cutscene, you go back to the game. But you’ll see any party members that are still watching the cutscene with a “camera-icon” above their heads. So unlike in GW1, you do not have to wait for others to confirm skipping. Its entirely client side.

Yes, it is the person who opened the instance who speaks during the cutscene.

Thanks! I’ll be sure to keep that in mind.

I hope you don’t get dissapointed. The Story of Arah is probably the worst boss fight of all the times. So boring that I almost quit the game after that. Thank’s god the tower of nightmares happened that same month and it hooked me until now.
