Guild Wars 2

OK, so its simple but im upto Arah and killing Zhatain in the personal quest chain.. i see arah explore parth 1,23 but how do i need to complete for zhatain??

Also, if i enter as explore with a group and finish, can i then open later or must i finish story mode first??

does that all make sense? Im sleep deprived right now and loaded up on caffeine, so sorry :-)

It’s Arah story mode for the personal story.

I don’t know what you meant by your other query, but this is how all dungeons work for story/explorable:
- Initially you can only enter story mode, unless someone else in your party already completed it (and then they have to walk in the door for explorable mode and you follow them by clicking the button after they walked in)
- After completing story mode of a dungeon you can enter whatever mode you want, as many times as you want
- It doesn’t matter who the party leader is for dungeons (e.g. I was not “leader” when I did Arah for my Ranger’s story)

I would assume that you would need to do story mode for the personal story. However it may require you to physically travel to the entrance of Arah to begin a custom instance. Doesn’t seem likely though. And no, you must complete story before you can open explore.

(Edit: I see someone has beaten me to it. Cheers!)

If I’m reading your questions correctly:

• Arah STORY MODE is needed to complete your personal story.
• To host EXPLORABLE MODE for a party, you MUST complete story mode.
• To join EXPLORABLE MODE with a party, at least one person in your party must be able to host EXPLORABLE MODE (see previous bullet point).
