Guild Wars 2

So I stopped playing Guild Wars 2 in May 2013, right before or after the Flame and Frost Living World event because of school etc.

Im picking the game up now because my friends are all hopping on cuz it’s free now.

So what’s new in the past 2 years I didnt touch this game at all?

Living World season 2 pretty much…. Anet added two new maps in pve, where most of the living world season 2 takes place…. one wvw map (edge of the mists)
The twilight arbor dungeon path forward up (lvl 55) was replaced with a new lvl 80 path.
Parts of the LS season 1 made its way into fractals of the mists along with some of the LS season 2 content.
Each profession got a new heal skill.
Lions Arch was destroyed and Rebuilt.
Kessex Hills is littered with debris from the destroyed The Tower of Nightmares.

Lots of new miniatures, outfits/costumes, weapon skins, dyes.
(I don’t know if you had the wardrobe system….. but if you didn’t have it before…. now you can unlock all of the weapon/armor skins and use transmutation charges instead of stones to alter your appearance)

A handful of new/reworked jumping puzzles.

We now have a daily login rewards system, which awards players progressive loot just for logging in… dailies have been changed their payout, and mothlies have been removed.

A new activity was added…. Sanctum Sprint

Some new crafting materials… charged quartz, quartz, toxic spores, watchwork sprockets, etc.

We now have items that consume bloodstone dust, empyreal fragments, and dragonite ore in increments of 50….. these items can consume anywhere from 3-6 of said increments and in exchange players receive a small loot bag.

Idk…. I think that covers pretty much the important stuff.

I recommend watching Bog Otter’s GW2 Boomerangs series!

Thanks for the updates guys!

Being able to pimp out my characters wardrobe sounds fun, as does LS Season 2

I stopped playing about the sometime you did, but i joined back in June 2014, and I must say a lot has changed. Pvp matchmaking plus some maps removed and a few added. New achievement reward system. World boss reworks, plus a new one, triple trouble. And theres a lot of Quality of Life changes such has no longer being kicked from a dungeon when the party leader d/c. Honestly theres to much to really list off without making the post to long, but in my opinion, it has changed for the better. And welcome back! Hope you enjoy the ride!
