Guild Wars 2

They’ll definitely add more content with more dragons later on. It’s not even a question in my mind. Also Palawa Joko is hanging around down south, that smells of expansion!

You don’t really need to be in a party to participate in group content, but it is nice to meet people, eh!

The well is for a skill point, not the vista.

From what I understand, if you were to rank the 8 classes in the game for current balance of power, Guardian and Warrior both come in near the top. Guardian is the best class for making use of Retaliation, and has very strong self-sustain and control abilities, but actually has a strikingly low hp pool. Warrior has one of the highest base hp pools, some good control as well, and is often paired with thief for the highest burst damage potential. Both classes are strong at AoE damage output as well.

A great way to get a feel for a class, and decide on skills and traits (even for PvE purposes), is to check out the heart of the mists. You can travel there freely from anywhere, using the pvp tab on your hero panel. You will have your level increased to 80, as well as getting all skills and traits unlocked while in the area. There are PvP item vendors who will let you try any weapon and armor combination you’d like as well. Then you can head to the sparring NPCs or the test dummy golems to get a feel for your damage and combat potential.

That’s right, if there is no level-indicator visible on the map, the area can’t be reached yet. There are currently 25 accessible zones in the game.

I strongly suspect that in further patches, more territory will be opened up; after all we haven’t faced Jormag, Kralkatorik or Primordius at all yet. When expansion time comes, I see no reason to doubt that the continents Elona and Cantha will once again return to the scope of the player-accessible world.

If a guess helps, it’s on the order of six hours – but if you want something more specific, we’ll need someone else to comment here.

Trust the in-game completion statistic. The login-screen information doesn’t update immediately, so it often displays old level, armor or world completion information.

axeN, I would love to know what color you used for your gold; looks fantastic.
