Enter the living world of Guild Wars 2 - filled with thousands of dynamic events that ebb and flow through the course of your adventures. One day there may be a thriving village filled with vendors and townspeople, the next day that village may be a smoking ruin overrun by centaurs.
Dynamic events evolve and cascade across the world in response to how you, the player, interact with them, leaving persistent effects in the game world. Will you save that village or let it burn? The choice rests with you and your fellow players.
The Dynamic Event system in Guild Wars 2 is built to be scalable and encourage impromptu group playwhere players are naturally cooperating together and not worried about encroaching on each other. The more the merrier!
Personal Stories
Guild Wars 2 is the story of YOU, and the heroic adventures you experience in the massive, dynamic world of Tyria. With the customizable, personal storylines in Guild Wars 2, you can explore a fully interactive MMO world with your friends and follow your character's own unique narrative.
Your story begins when you create a character. The choices you make at the beginning of the game - race, profession, and biographical details - set your character on a customized story track. But it doesn't end there - as you adventure, the decisions you make spin off into new storylines and new directions. Your character's story reflects your interest and your choices - no two players will have the same experience.
Guild Wars 2 offers storytelling that is both epic in scope and personally meaningful. What is your story?
Hall Of Monuments
In the Hall of Monuments, a revered chamber in the Far Shiverpeaks, trophies and tapestries celebrate the victories and achievements of heroes. 250 years in the future, the glory of your previous deeds still shines through the ages. With our new web application, the Hall of Monuments Reward Calculator, you can see what rewards your Guild Wars 2 characters will inherit from your Guild Wars account!
Guild Wars 2 rewards are based on the achievements and honors accumulated by all the characters on yourGuild Wars account. These are collected in the Hall of Monuments, which is available in Guild Wars: Eye of the North. As many Guild Wars players know, the Hall of Monuments is an instanced location, a massive trophy vault that is personalized to your characters. The Hall commemorates your achievements in Eye of the North, the original Guild Wars, Guild Wars Factions, and Guild Wars Nightfall. The monuments in the Hall are worth points that you can use to provide your Guild Wars 2 characters with exclusive titles, companions, and items.
Now you can use the Hall of Monuments Reward Calculator to understand how the benefits are calculated, determine what rewards you've unlocked, and discover what other items will be available when Guild Wars 2launches. You just have to enter a valid character name from your Guild Wars account to get started!
The rewards that your Guild Wars 2 characters earn are exclusive to the Hall of Monuments and can't be picked up or earned anywhere else. Depending on your Guild Warscharacters' history, you can unlock:
- Special Hall of Monuments titles
- Animal companions for your ranger, like the Black Widow Spider and Rainbow Jellyfish
- Miniatures such as the Red Servitor Golem or Orange Tabby Cat, that any profession can use
- A wide selection of weapons, like the Living Shortbow and the Fellblade
- Armor pieces for your light, medium, and heavy armor sets
Your new Guild Wars 2 characters will be able to use these low-level items and armor right away, and we'll provide you with the means to use these special items as you advance to higher levels.
Let's say your main character is a ranger named Mira Verde, who has adventured with her trusty moa companion all across Tyria in the original Guild Wars and Guild Wars: Eye of the North. Mira Verde has earned points in the five different monument categories: Devotion, Fellowship, Honor, Resilience, and Valor. Now let's say you also played an assassin in Guild Wars Factions named Mister Stabby, who has earned some additional statues in the Honor monument that Mira Verde hasn't earned.
When you enter either Mira Verde's or Mister Stabby's names into the Hall of Monuments Reward Calculator, you'll see a cumulative total of the reward points on your account, regardless of which character earned them. If Mira Verde has earned you 12 points, and Mister Stabby has earned you 3, then you have 15 points total, which will earn you all the rewards from 1 to 15 on the reward track in Guild Wars 2. The Reward Calculator also gives you a detailed breakdown for each monument, showing you how many points your characters have yet to earn, so you can take on certain challenges, and add to your cumulative reward points!
What good is a vault full of trophies and monuments if you can't show it off? Now, you can display your Hall of Monuments rewards on social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter and bask in the admiration of your friends!
Guild Wars 2 may take place hundreds of years in the future, but the valorous deeds of your Guild Warscharacters live on in the Hall of Monuments. Forge your destiny!
Dungeons
There are places in Tyria where only the most experienced, well-equipped groups dare enter. We call them dungeons, but in reality these massive, instanced adventure areas are set in a wide range of settings above and below ground. From the searing heat of Sorrow's Embrace to the grandiose halls of Caudecus's Manor to the haunted depths of the Ascalonian Catacombs, dungeons in Guild Wars 2 come in many different forms.
Dungeons are designed for teams of high-level players who must work together in order to overcome their perils. Each dungeon instance is divided into a story mode and an explorable mode. In story mode, you'll delve into a gripping plot that reveals more secrets of Tyria. Once you've experienced the dungeon in story mode, you can unlock the challenging explorable mode content. The sandbox-style play of the explorable mode has several strategic options, each of which creates a different set of obstacles and goals in the game.
The risks are immense but the rewards are great for those who brave the dungeons in Guild Wars 2 - each dungeon holds its own unique armors and weapons.
Player vs. Player
Player vs. Player games in Guild Wars 2 are easy to learn and quick to join but offer a variety of challengesfor new players, casual gamers, and tournament PvPers alike.
In PvP matches, teams of players compete to eliminate each other and capture strategic objectives to score points. Enormous diversity can be injected into PvP games by changing the strategic objectives—players may have to survive a strafing dragon in one match or destroy an enemy siege weapon supply depot in another. Of course, there are always opposing players to contend with...
In "hot joinable" PvP, new and casual players can easily hop into an ongoing match and start playing right away without worrying about setting up teams beforehand. Competitive players looking for more organized play can try tournament mode, which pits teams of five players against each other in pick-up tournaments as well as monthly and player-run tournaments.
Everyone plays at the same level in Guild Wars 2 PvP, where skill and strategy provide players with the winning edge. All players are set to max level and given all the skills and gear they need to meet their opponents on even terms.
