Guild Wars 2

One thing I didn’t see addressed about Central Tyria Gliding: Will it be available to alt characters that haven’t hit level 80 yet? The reason I ask is that there are mastery effects (e.g. Leader of the Pact) that your account will benefit from once unlocked regardless of character level. Gliding is currently only available in Level 80 areas, so it’s hard to know if the restriction on a character’s ability to glide extends or will extend to their level or not.

Presumably low level alts can glide in Tyria. I took a level 30 to Verdant Brinks and was able to glide around the map.

Like you said, masteries are account-wide, not character-bound. And I’ve seen some particularly adventurous souls who have gotten sub-80 characters into HoT maps and can glide just fine. So yes, low-level characters can benefit from gliding in core Tyria unless they add a specific restriction for it, but I don’t see why they’d do that considering it would be more work and make the change less exciting and impactful.

You don’t need to be adventurous at all, really. Just take a low level character to your Lost Precipe Guild Hall. By exiting the hall through the gate, you unlock the Shipwreck Peak waypoint.

The run from there to the Jaka Itzel Waypoint has very few enemies, for the most part easily avoided. I had a level 15 character I parked on the flax farm. lol

Ah, right. I always forget about guild halls and such, seeing how I’m not in a guild. I was thinking you’d have to make your way through the Silverwastes.
