Guild Wars 2

the video of the new guild hall is exciting and beautiful…. and i was just discussing with a guildie the option of changing the current hall to the new one… and we were wondering if you decide to change, do you lose all of the NPCs and upgrades that you have in your current guild hall?

if yes, that’s going to make some people that have worked very hard on their hall VERY unhappy to find out AFTER changing….

Everything is kept. You can change halls now and has been shown by players and stated by anet.
Just Will cost gold and the guild point whatever they are called.

You don’t lose them if you swap between the two HoT halls (though all the decorations go back to storage) so it seems unlikely you would lose them swapping to a new hall. At least it seems unlikely to be designed that way, bugs happen … I would suggest guild leaders take screenshots of their hall status before making the switch, just in case.

The mechanics are already in place for people who have swapped between Gilded and Precipe: you keep all the upgrades, but decorations are returned to storage.

That said, Donari’s advice is apt (as it always is): take screenshots, just in case. Better to have done a small of amount of busy work when nothing happens than to have skipped a simple task if disaster strikes.

Could you link said vid please?
