Greetings and salutations my lovely little Bytelings my name is Wiggy and today, if you haven’t already heard, Guild War’s 2 new expansion called Path of Fire is coming out! Which looks amazing.
So, there’s already been a lot of channels out there, that have gone in great detail as to what this actual expansion brings, but to
save you from sitting through a 10 minute video I’ll keep this as short and sweet as possible, only going over actual features added.
To start off, this expansion brings in new lands, the Crystal Desert, and other desert themed regions that look so detailed and well crafted! These lands are larger then any prier, and because of this, and because of the terrain you’ll be traversing across, you will finally have access to mounts! Now the mounts “shown” so far are the Raptor, which will be the first land mount you’ll be able to get and it’s the “average” mount as it doesn’t have any special abilities unlike the other mounts shown. And yes! Each mount has there own unique ability that can make travelling around easier, so mounts aren’t just for aesthetic purposes. The other mounts are The Skimmer, which hovers over the land or water, allowing you to travel at mount speed over toxic ground or water. then there’s The Springer, which can leap great distances or up cliff sides, which you can use take short cuts while traveling. And then there’s The Jackal, which was forged by magic, and it can teleport short distances!
Guild Wars 2: Path of Fire also adds Elite Specializations, for your level 80 character. These Elite specializations give you new ways of playing your character, from new weapon choices for your class, or traits. An example of one of the Elite specializations is the Ranger becoming a SoulBeast. Where you channel your pet, and become one gaining there companions abilities as there own form said companions archetype.
Each and everyone of the class in Guild Wars 2 has these Elite specializations, each one changing the way your character plays.
Besides the new regions, specializations, and mounts, what else did Guild Wars 2: Path of Fire add? Well of course there’s new
armor to fit with the new landscape for you fashionistas to collect and show off, there is also a new guild hall that you can
Purchase in the desert. Due not that you’ll need Heart Of Thorns in order to upgrade your guild hall.
So, I don’t want to mention the story content added in Guild Wars 2: Path of Fire, just in case I spoil something for someone so
I’ll just be leaving this part blank.
Now you can Pre-Purchase Guild Wars 2: Path of Fire right now, on guild wars 2’s website. Now The actual release date for this expansion is the 22nd of September, so we don’t have to wait to long for this!
Generally I’m excited to eventually try this out, I personally love exploring desert regions in games, as it’s a rare terrain to traverse across, as you mainly run around forests in MMORPGs. This is just a brief example of the things added in Guild Wars 2: Path of Fire, I’m sure there’s a lot more added in this giant expansion, but this is the basic things.
