The Event:
ArenaNet and NCsoft are proud to announce the second Guild
Wars World Preview Event! During the last three days of October, players
from around the world are invited to play Guild Wars and enjoy a completely
new Guild Wars experience. The World Preview event offers two new regions,
new cooperative quests, a new strategic battlefield for arena combat,
new items and monsters, the ability to level-up your character, and for
the first time you can start forming guilds, experiencing guild warfare
and building your guild rank. And of course, with our streaming technology,
we have a few ideas we intend to share with you during the event...
Your new experience includes:
- 2 New regions for exploration and adventure -- The Kingdom of Kryta
and The Wilds -- each with its own beautiful environment, persistent
town and instanced hunting grounds
- Experience Guild-on-Guild war for the first time in addition to
tournament and arena team combat
- 5 New cooperative missions that continue the Guild Wars story
- New character development and abilities -- sample a host of new
skills and elite skills for developing your characters and team strategy
- Experience the Guild Wars leveling process -- the Preview event
players will start at level 15 and can advance up to level 20
- Guild functionality - during the duration of the event players will
have the ability to form guilds, name guild leaders and to build their
guild rank by competing against other teams in tournament combat
- Observer mode - for the first time, players will now have opportunity
to watch and learn from other teams in combat by using observer mode,
which allows them to monitor live tournament and arena battles
- And more! Details to follow in the coming weeks...
