Been away for a year, come back?
dungeons, its not worth it. unless you would also like 10 man dungeons, anet calld those raids, then maybe
wvw is getting a handful of updates, but i can’t say whether its really made a big impact. in general i think its been a positive reception to updates
Thanks for your reply.
I duo with my son. Is there still a lot to do for a duo?
I know you said dungeons were dead, but we use to love world bosses and random LFG for dungeons.
That still a thing?

Duo works well in HoT if you get the expac. Plenty of content which is tuned for small groups or soloists who want more of a challenge than core Tyria. Plenty of big bosses in there too.
WvW has been revamped, with server merges for more populated matches, a new borderland rotated into the mix and a vastly improved reward system using the same reward tracks as PvP uses.
Although dungeons are largely a thing of the past now (they did improve rewards at least), fractals and raids are where the main instanced action is and they’ve had a lot of work and improvements added in.
On those 2 merits alone it sounds like it world be worth it for you

if u love world bosses, yes those are still a thing and u can def duo roll n do that. you can still random LFG for dungeons, but they are the same ol same ol, and haven’t changed at all.
u haven’t said when u last played, do u kno about fractals? u 2 may enjoy playing those too.
before u buy anything, i suggest just logging in, running around again, and look into fractals.

if u are having a good time w/ that stuff, then u will prob enjoy the world bosses in the expac too, and the other new things the expac brought.

The title says when they last played
I took a long break myself. I’ve recently came back and I’m having a blast. It will take time getting used to the HoT maps so don’t get frustrated. They are much more difficult to traverse then core world maps. Once you get used to it though they are awesome in my opinion. I’ve been back two weeks and have finished the story on one character and LS3 and unlocked full elite specs on three characters. I’d say it’s totally worth it.
Thanks Stubie, your answer is exactly what I needed to hear.
See you in game.
Not having hot your kind of limited. The new meta are all hot. Dungeons are not totally dead but it harder harder to find people. And most of those are f2p or low ap players.
I would get hot. Hot zones are very active but u have to use lfg for many of the meta events.
But the world boss train is still rocking.
If your a solo wvw u have to have hot. Zerg wvw still fun with the old builds.
Pvp is super painful without hot.
Guild mission are done a little better.
Condition builds are just as good as power builds. Better in some cases. Mix builds coming more common outside of raids.
A lot of rocking skins.
Gold a lot easier to make.
Fotm is very active with out hot your limited to about 65 without a boat load of gold. But running much easier but for the daily fotm rewards u need hot.
There was a 1/2 sale last month. So, there should be another in the future. Plus if u log
a few times a month u should get story unlocks for when u buy hot.
Good Luck
Awesome!
We will probably be getting the Ultimate addition, so it being on sale isn’t a concern because I believe that edition never goes on sale.
Just waiting to get my password changed (sent a ticket in). :p
Can’t wait to get on that world boss train again!
