Guild Wars 2

I think the idea in beta was that at one point during the tutorial fight, you WERE going to get downed, to show new people the system. Guess that went out the window, eh?

That was the impression I got as well…
Initially after the “nerf” I thought I had just gotten better (you know like how a new player would get his downed-tutorial, but with skill you could escape) but it is basically possible to AFK all of the tutorial bosses without getting downed… rather sad, too!

Tom Gore.4035:

There are several unfinished stories out there. The Norn blacksmith never gets over to actually forging the superweapon that can destroy Jormag, probably because Jormag’s defeat is likely to be introduced in an expansion.

As far as I understood the story there you actually use the “legendary” weapon that Beigarth crafted… It is, however, never shown what happens to that weapon afterwards!
