So I have joined the gamers patiently waiting for the release of HoT, and hoping for some excitement and new content. I noticed in PvP we will have a whole new track starting from Jungle rabbit to Jungle Dragon, wow, as much as I appreciate the work and the reward tracks, playing with mindless bots to another level 80 is not going to happen. Then legendary armour to do raids? We have ascended gear, we have ascended armour and weapons, but again its the same old thing, make the bosses harder so you forced to buy the next level to keep up, but in actual fact, the feeling when playing is like a real pew pew and the NPC’s do some serious damage, so you have to keep dodge rolling to stay alive (Exciting). So what am I left with? New maps, Story continues, but now levelling again, after levelling 15 characters to lev 80. Ive bought HoT already, but feel disappointed before the launch, that’s sad. And Revenant, been their, done that, to chunky, to slow blah. Anyone out their than can breathe some exciting things from HoT I may have missed, please comment.

Forum warfare for pro or con raid – wait, that is old too.
EotM 2.0 map turns into WvW map – Kind of lost for words with that.
Vertical progression camouflaged as horizontal progression – you have to admit, this is kind of rare and new.
Maps not wide but high and mazelike – my personal lowlight, but kind of new.
Not that much content for a kind of high price – definitely new for GW2.
Fractal level raise – That is really exciting news, at least for me. give me some new fractals and my opinion will turn from meh to cautiously interested.
Precursor hunt, not another round of RNG – good stuff.

You already said the other stuff that is really interesting, so maybe we´re stuck with this.^^

@OP, maybe you should do some research? Legendary armor is NOT REQUIRED FOR RAIDS. You can obtain materials for legendary armor FROM RAIDS. Not only this, but it is not a stat increase and just offers a good looking skin (I hope) and QoL features (stat swapping). Don’t comment on how a game works if you are just spouting out misinformation, thanks.

It’s like people don’t even look at the news and announcements before whining uncontrollably.

All the PvP people are mindless bots? That’s news to them. (And after reading PvP map chat, I never knew bots were so salty.)

Then legendary armour to do raids?

Legendary is the reward. You don’t do raids in Legendary. (Do you even read the blog posts?)

Yes it’s new maps, a new profession, new events, new story line. What else were you expecting here? No new maps, events, story line or even one more profession?

Be careful what you ask for
ANet may give it to you.
