Hi there!

Did you know new characters start with one waypoint in every race’s starting area? That means you can roll an asura in Metrica Province, but instantly teleport over to Caledon Forest if you wanted to. Or Queensdale. Or Plains of Ashford. Or Wayfarer Foothills.

Cool, huh?

But what’s more, ArenaNet limit what other, higher level zones free-to-players can access right off creation, gating content to ensure unexperienced newbies can’t stumble through portals to guaranteed death.

This gives us an opportunity to hold a PvE event based around all the awesome things found in the starting areas, skipping over all the boring stuff and focusing on nice event chains, mini-dungeons, jumping puzzles and world bosses. If you’ve wanted to roll a new character following Heart of Thorns but haven’t had the opportunity, or wish to avoid the grind of playing somewhat solo, here’s a good opportunity to create a new one and breeze through the early levels.

They’ll be no slow, plodding focus on ensuring everyone completes a certain heart or grabs a specific vista though. These will be fast-paced, somewhat rowdy invasions of each area – with focus on the fun stuff.

It’s extremely easy to join; all anyone needs to do is make a free-to-play account, join an EU world, and make a new character. Then complete the tutorial, waypoint to Caledon Forest, whisper me (Duke Witherheart) for a taxi to the right instance.

A review of the world boss schedule leads me to suggest the following:

Caledon Forest (Jungle Wurm at 19:15) -> Wayfarer Foothills (Svanir Shaman at 20:15) -> Plains of Ashford (moving at 21:15) -> Queensdale (Shadow Behemoth at 21:45) -> Metrica Province (Fire Elemental at 22:45).

As for what we’ll do in the meantime? Well it’ll be whatever takes our fancy!

It’ll be a long night, but feel free to drop in and out as you please. You can whisper me on Duke Witherheart for a status update or taxi at any time.

IN SUMMARY: On Saturday 5th December, roll a new character and join us in Caledon Forest at 18:00 GMT for fun stuff. No other requirements.

See attached for a nice banner and schedule.
