Guild Wars 2

It’s been a long time since I levelled a character without tomes. But from what I remember they were level gated so you had to gain a few levels from doing other stuff (hearts and events) before you could continue it. In the HoT personal story we are already lvl 80 gaining progression horizontally through masteries, so does that mean we can go right through our personal story without pause? Or maybe we have to gain certain masteries first.

Either you’ll have to wait for each step to be released like Living Story s2 or you’ll unlock the arcs through masteries (jumpshroom, glider, lesser cultures, …)

I wouldn’t be surprised if they launch with a partial storyline (the beginning of season 3) and immediately start up season 3 on schedule. Other than that, the only breaks in the story you should encounter is the ability to travel to them. You may need to complete a chain of events to gain access to certain areas for example. Masteries will likely be required eventually, gliding and jumping specifically, however obtaining their first level will be trivial.

I assume masteries will be used.

I think I remember it being confirmed that the fight with Mordremoth WILL NOT come with HoT’s release. We are getting a portion of the story. I imagine we won’t be getting to fight Mordremoth until next Summer, or Spring at the earliest.

I really wish people would stops saying it has been confirmed, we have had no confirmation whatsoever that mordremoth will not be fought in HoT, only baseless speculation made by pessimistic players and trolls trying to rile people up . True, we have had no confirmation we will be killing him in HoT either, but I for one choose to remain optimistic.

One of the 4 zones of HOT is called Dragon’s stand, I don’t see any other place where we would kill Mordremoth.

I rather think and hope we’ll kill it in the expansion and lead towards a new dragon with the living story…

Problem is people are still under the assumption that we even WILL kill mordremoth. Everyone has this cliche idea that anet is going to make an expansion for each dragon 1 by 1. Im willing to bet towards the end of hot and further down the road the story is going to start developing into a much broader overarching plot and not just “kill all the dragons” im guessing killing them is NOT what we actually want to be doing based on subtle hints throughout the game

We will have a potluck picnic, hosted by Mordremoth. It will be anti-vegetarian. Not sure why. Something about Mordremoth being against eating plants.

Jormag is supposed to come, but you know how he is. Always sending an assistant in his place. He IS the CEO of Frostgorge Oppression Enterprises though. Gotta cut the guy some slack for being busy.

Maybe I am missing something or perhaps this is just semantics…but I was given to understand that the personal story ends with Victory or Death (Zhaitan fight). Everything after that is the Living Story and is for level 80. Living story is not gated by personal story completion and, once you are level 80, I would assume the only gating for living story is completion of specific parts.

As I said, maybe I am wrong here…but this is how I have been viewing it.

I’m guessing that the portals for certain story steps need lowish levels in certain masteries to reach. e.g. early on you’ll need gliding, later you might discover you need to use an updraft, etc.

Probably nothing that would require maxed masteries given the huge xp requirement there, but being able to, say, actually enter Tarir seems like it could important to the plot, etc.
