“Heroes’ Ascent, also known as HA, is a continuous global tournament between teams of 8 players from all over the world. Teams compete in several arenas in sequence before finally meeting in the Hall of Heroes, where they may win valuable loot. "

I absolutely loved Heroes’ Ascent in original Guild Wars.
I spent hours upon hours playing it, it was by far my favorite PvP game mode.

Has Arena Net said anything about returning this game mode back to GW2?

There have been quite a few threads on HA so far, however none have ever been graced by a reply in red. Moreover, I doubt they’ll be returning any mode from * beep * to GW2, they did mention new game modes are ‘in consideration’ though.

It just won’t be the same even if they try. RIP Ghostly Hero Dshots.

Quasi-elitist dungeoneer and missing Gw1 GvGs greatly.

GW1 balance had more depth, made more fun and required more skill. I can promise that every new game-mode A-Net will introduce into GW2 will fail hard. Hope they can bring the old glamour back into GW3, because this game will never be a success pvp-wise.

How hard could it possibly be to recreate HA maps and HA game mode in GW2?
Underworld map was literally just a square.

Although it would probably end up being a huge cluster * of skill effects.

No source of active healing / protting, that’s why. Just blast-finishers on a water-field. Personally I don’t see that Hype from HA coming back into GW2. Especially with about 4 Teams left.

GW1 was way more complicated and competitive. There is no way something like HA could ever work in GW2. But I personally don’t mind. HA was fun, I played it all the time. But I think PvP in GW2 will be just as fun once they add seasons and leagues.
