Guild Wars 2

Hello, I purchased the HoT expansion and applied the serial to my account successfully. However when I try to create the new profession in game it does not allow me to saying I need to upgrade to HoT expansion. Any tips?

The expansion is not release yet. It’s the 23rd October. You will be able to create Revenant on one of your beta slot during BWE. There is one start in a couple of hours or tomorrow, i’m not sure.

I purchased it for this beta weekend. The beta slots show up but when I go to create the character it says I have to upgrade. Has the beta weekend not started yet is that the issue?

Yeah, the expansion is not released yet and that is why you cannot create the revenant yet. Starting sometime today there is a Beta Weekend (BWE) where you can make a revenant then to play on the beta testing server, but it won’t transfer over once the expansion releases, so it is only a temporary character for testing purposes.

The beta doesn’t start until noon Pacific Time.

oh yeah, the beta weekend has not started yet. It does start at Noon Pacific Time.

You cannot create revenant till 23th october.

You can create test revenant but ONLY during BWE. Even the creation of it is limited to beta weekend. So yes you have to wait. Just a little of patience in about 5-6 hours (guess, based on last times), you should be able to do what you want.
