Guild Wars 2

Hey guys. So I’m leveling an alt and decided to go exploring the cities. Instead of just finding areas for Map completion, I’ve also started talking to NPCs. I ran into Barmaid Karlena in Divinity’s Reach, and she was advertising her bar needing bouncers and the dialogue gave me an option to ask about it, which then put a personal waypoint on my map to the bar. So I was wondering if there were other things like this, or is it just a common thing you find in cities? Unfortunately when I arrived at the bar I wasn’t unable to find Headwaiter Galim, so was unable to progress.

If I remember correctly, she’s an artifact of a Bar Brawl activity that got hyped before launch but was never fully implemented (same with the Shooting Range nearby). Originally ANet made it out like each city would have it’s own activity, but only Keg Brawl was ready at launch and since then they seem to have mostly abandoned the idea in favor of activities that tie into the living story.

That’s disappointing to hear, but thanks for the answer

The only hidden ‘tasls’ or quests that I can think of are the mini dungeons that you can find..(not sure of their proper names). For instance, and I wont give any clues to location, you can find a key off a random mob drop in some zone that unlocks some dwarven ruins site. You enter, it puts you in an instance and you have to complete some rather interesting and challenging obstacles before the final boss fight. It can be done solo I believe. Takes maybe 30-45 minutes if youre good.

Theres another where you need to collect some items, fight through some obsticles, unluck a big chest.

Very fun stuff and I wish they would do a whole lot more of this.

There is a “hidden achievement” in Ebonhawke to read all the books hidden around the place. You will get a pop up on completetion but no record of it in the achievement log. (http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Speedy_Reader)

While you are there, there is another achievement for tearing down all the posters in Ebonhawke.

Lots of interesting little tasks in Exploration achievements tab if your up for the adventure (mini dungeons included, which I also love).

edit: Or its not hidden anymore. Couldn’t find in my list so wasn’t sure, sure enough it it shows up now (as the wiki says). :P
