I see threads for WoW and others, but haven’t seen any talk about GW2 in awhile. Has anyone been playing the new expansion, Path of Fire? It’s pretty amazing, with the ability to use mounts and new specializations for character types. For the GW1 fans, they NAILED the nostalgia factor of Nightfall. (I almost expect to be transformed into a sandworm again, but haven’t explored that far into it yet.)
Praise Joko.
I have killed Balthazar on my warrior and I am now working my mesmer through. The mounts are great and make movement so easy but they did screw with the scale of the game. A mount in Central Tyria make many of the maps very small.
But yeah it is nice to go to the desert again. Vabbi still has some beautiful scenery to go with the brand. I think our guild is going to get the new Guild Hall, at least I hope people vote for it.
My laptop died a while back and I haven’t had a chance to replace it yet, but as soon as I do I intend to get caught up on everything I’ve been missing…
I didn’t realize we even had a guild. I’m not too crazy about the one I’m in now. Can I join up with you guys?
I’ve bought Path of Fire and done enough to get my raptor mount, and now I’m going over the living world stuff between HoT and PoF to get caught up.
It is, indeed, pretty amazing. Is there a SDMB guild at all?
There is the Burning Dog Legion [BDL] but really only myself and one other are ever on-line. I spend most of time with Zealots of Shiverpeak [ZoS], a guild that has Anet devs in it, and was started before the release of GW1 (Zos Shivros Channel in Factions is named for the guild).
If you want an invite into BDL, which is not very active, PM me in game (Ike Witt.8425). If you want a bigger guild, ZoS is big and active but requires an application, which can be done here.
Don’t forget you can still belong to up to 5 different guilds, too!
I’m really having a blast with the expansion; yeah the mounts do make other maps feel small, but I’m enjoying using them to get to places the “wrong” way, so they do add exploration value.
I can also send a BDL invite if you need (Heller Highwater.4967 in-game). I generally rep the Silver Wing, a smaller guild, but we still have a lot of fun. For anyone just getting into the game, be aware that it doesn’t matter what server you’re on for PvE; everyone can play with everyone else. It only matters for the world vs world (vs world) game-mode.
