Guild Wars 2

Hi!

First, I love Season 2, and thanks for it. My son and I played through it on day 1 and had a fabulous bonding experience

Second, I have an alt account which I bought quite a while back. At one point, I deleted the single character that I had on it, so that I could switch the account to a different server. I created a new character, but have not progressed it past Shaemoor (well, until Tuesday).

The question is: With not a single level 80 (or anywhere near) character on my account, am I got going to have the living story episode available to me, without paying, if I ever do get a character up to level 80 on that account in the future?

I left the tutorial zone to see if that made the green star appear, but alas, nothing appeared. Is “just login” enough to do it, even though I haven’t seen notice the story being available on the account?

The Story Journal

To go along with this change, we’re modifying the story Journal in your character’s Hero Panel so it will track all of your character’s story steps. From that panel, characters who are level 80 will be able to select between playing their personal story and the Living World story. For the Living World story, you’ll be able to select which unlocked episode you’d like to play. Characters under level 80 will be able to see the available episodes, but will not be able to play them until they reach level 80. Think of the Living World story as the constantly expanding continuation of your character’s storyline once they reach level 80.
