In an effort to keep our website timely and accurate, we review it from time to time to make sure that everything is current and complete. When doing a review pass on the Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns website, we discovered some language that was out of date and required correction.

Here’s what we changed:

  • Legendary Weapons/Journeys: We wanted to include more accurate information about legendary weapons. As you learned in a recent blog post we will be releasing new legendary weapons, which will be acquired through a different method. Refreshing the content on the Heart of Thorns site retains the references to such weapons while it clarifies how they will be obtained going forward.
  • Stronghold and the World vs. World Desert Borderlands: We’ve restructured the pages for that content to reflect that while both Stronghold and World vs. World Desert Borderlands were introduced with the launch of Heart of Thorns, you don’t need to own the expansion to play them. This also gave us a chance to clean up some out-of-date information about events in the Desert Borderlands and how you unlock different Mist Champions.
  • Raids and Fractals: We updated the introduction to remove the outdated fractal leaderboards reference.
  • Guild Halls: We updated a Guild Halls screenshot that showed non-final text and moved a paragraph about Guild Claiming from the World vs. World page over to Guild Halls where it belongs.

This refresh gives a more accurate and complete picture of Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns. If you have questions about any of the changes, please feel free to share them in this thread.

Sort of related, but can you update the text on the mastery points in Ember Bay to not reference the Maguuma Jungle?

Has this already taken place? I see nothing about how the newest Legendary Weapons are acquired; just a link to an old pre-release Linsey Murdock blog/post.

Fractals page has a link to a blog/post about the upcoming Fractal Leaderboards, as well.

I don’t believe this is an error. The Heart of Maguuma points are those related to the HoT expansion. If it wasn’t the same, people couldn’t use Ember Bay points to finish filling in their HoT masteries.

This is done for playability. It doesn’t matter if the in game name for it is Ember Bay or Maguuma. Right now we have two different types of mastery tracks and my guess is when the next expansion is released, there’ll be a third.

@Vayne I get why they are HoT mastery points as opposed to central tyria mastery points. But when you go commune with the points in Ember Bay they still have the text congratulating you on your mastery over navigating the jungle, which is out of place considering the environment in Ember Bay. All they need to do is update the text, not change the mastery points, I never asked for that.

Okay I get it and agee, but you should probably post that separately since this is a website thread not an in game thread.

You may want to correct the spelling error on the Player vs Player page where you storm the neemgy gates. Slightly detracts from the professional look and update you made XD.
