Guild Wars 2

Maybe I’m just dumb but I haven’t been able to find in the forums what’s the story to HoT? what’s actually happening in it? is it a continuation of living world season 2?
I’d love to hear about it, any new villain? any new heroes? any new places?

Details of the story won’t be spoiled in advance beyond what we see of its beginnings in beta tomorrow.

What we do know from trailers, dev comments, previous beta stress tests, and other hints is that the HoT story picks up ten minutes after LS2 Chapter 8 ended, that we and the biconics will head deeper into the jungle to fight fiercer Mordrem foes, and it appears that Canach will join the biconics. We also know that sylvari will be feared, sometimes with good reason.

We will meet two new types of Hylek, some floating beings that might be Mursaat, and pursue Glint’s egg. Rytlock will return and make Revenants a thing. There will be new boss fights, presumably story related in some fashion.

Knowing precise details in advance would ruin it for a lot of people. I’m looking forward to the “oh wow” moments and chewing glass on content before I even know what that content will do. Hints are nice so RP can set up storylines as harbingers of changes in our alts, but a road map? No thanks.

omg I never knew that revenant was in fact Rytlok, so cool!
and I don’t want to know spoilers of the story, just the general expansion story we know in any game before it’s launch.
thanks so much!
