Күн бұрын

In June 2024, ArenaNet announced the fifth Guild Wars 2 expansion: Janthir Wilds. It is set to release on August 20, 2024, just a few months away! The expansion introduces a new weapon type for use on land: the Spear. Janthir has been part of the Guild Wars lore for decades, but we've never seen this area in-game before. everything we know comes from books, lore, and dialogues.
If you aren't excited yet, here are 7 reasons to check it out:
0:00 - Janthir Wilds Expansion Announced!
0:30 - Spears on Land for Every Profession!
2:05 - Janthir: What Is It and Who Are the Key Characters?
4:10 - Player Housing!
5:25 - Raids: Raid Wing Number 8!
7:05 - Reusing Systems = Less Bloat
8:00 - New PvP Gamemode
9:15 - Warclaws in PvE!

You can get the Janthir Wilds expansion here if you want to support me! I receive a small kickback when you buy through this link, and you don't have to pay anything extra: guildwars2.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=22&aff_id=641 (official store link)

The sole reason I will not play this game is weapon swapping. I like to use my abilities when they are ready and not have to worry about being time gated when swapping back and forth between weapons.

what i would like is to have 2 professions back Ritualist and Dervish

@Kyosika Ай бұрын

Oh god, that would be amazing. I remember when Living World Season 4 came out and we saw actual Dervishes and Paragons in GW2. I was almost certain they would release them as a profession at one point.

Dervish + Elementalist was OP

I'm most excited for the homestead system, I've been wanting it for years

@Kyosika Ай бұрын

Many players have! Like I said, I'm rather in the open world but the Homesteads look amazing.

I'm most interested in the new Raid wing, and hoping that the narrative of the story will be interesting and well implemented. Having the Raid wing integrated with the story and available either in the Open World, or in a PvE instance with 25 to 50 players entered through a public portal on a timer, will be an improvement and give non-Raiders a chance to experience the story content that is within the Raid map(s). I think the home instance and new crafting skill that will come with it, should be good for Anet, even though I'm not personally excited about it, and I would have been okay with just being able to decorate our existing home instances in each racial city.

Great idea! ArenaNet did this before, somewhat! If you look at Stronghold of the Faithful, which was released in Season 3, you see a White Mantle storyline that was also the focus of Season 3 at the time. However, the storyline in the raid was not necessary for the story.

I don’t play WvW but would like to add the warclaw to my mounts for completion. It won’t add any significant abilities like you mentioned but it’s a mount slot that I haven’t activated. Plus warclaw has some really cool skins!

@battlebots1 Ай бұрын

Stronghold is still playable, you just check the box when you queue for unranked. It's on by default so a lot of 1st time players are in the mode.

@Kyosika Ай бұрын

Ahhhh, see, there you go. I was unaware of that. That's why I said, "Not playable anymore to my knowledge." I could not find it in-game and could not find it on the Wiki. Do players still play it?

@loki5041 Ай бұрын

@@Kyosika yes and i like it:P its just that queues are alot longer:(

@battlebots1 Ай бұрын

@@Kyosika Yeah, it's a bit of an awkward mix of players tho imo. Like I said, it's a check box in the top right that is automatically checked, so you often get 1. a lot of brand new/first time pvp players, 2. players that love the mode and will usually steamroll new players, and 3. guilds doing pvp guild missions that are coordinated enough to dominate new players and go toe-to-toe vs a few experienced players.

The new warclaw skin is probably a WV unlock.

Do you think the legendary starter kit will switch to saying janthir needed? I don’t have soto yet so i kinda of want to buy the expansion that has the starter kit

@colinbastow1057 Ай бұрын

As a WvW player I am not that excited about this expansion. Have not played that much of the last expansion.Not sure what housing will do to my GW2 experience and I never raid and can't see this changing. We do need more maps in WvW.

@Kyosika Ай бұрын

Wvw could use some attention! The Warclaw will get a revamp. Maybe that could spice it up!

@colinbastow1057 Ай бұрын

@@Kyosika I was involved in a chase of one enemy player with about thirty of us. We were on War Claws and the enemy players weren't. The chase covered a large area in EB and we could not catch him. The War Claw has been nurfed for so long in WvW that any change could be an improvement but I will not be holding my breath that it will happen. Remember the War Claw is the slowest mount in the game.

You forgot an 8th reason, grizzly bear kodan! xD In all seriousness though I do weekly raids with some friends, usually just whatever the emboldened and money are because we don't have that much time, but I'm very excited for a new one to be added into that rotation.

how exactly is the Vault being expanded upon? (besides the obvious seasonal rewards)

@Kyosika Ай бұрын

That's it. It will get new rewards based on the expansion. Maybe I was unclear. I doubt it will be bigger. Perhaps a category for the new expansion.

I hope they give decent buffs for getting warclaw twice. Im yet to get the skyscale the long way because the buffs are barely worth it.

I'm really excited but the release a mere week prior to The War Within is more than unfortunate.

@nautilaz Ай бұрын

I know they've only had a year between releases, but really... a spear as the only new gameplay? They need to stop with the "new" weapons and make a damn profession already!

@mintb3868 Ай бұрын

This is not a popular opinion. If they add new Elite Specializations too quickly it will make balance too difficult and negatively impact both PvP and PvE.

Maybe its just me, but ever since SOTE, i felt like the classes lost a lot of their identity. Now everyone does a little bet of everything so the only real choice is what color you want the aoe to be lol

@alegrebandolerotattoo Ай бұрын

as far as specs go I don't feel like it, I mean, specs usually have some lore to relate to, good animations or style according to the class and if they also make my class do a bit of everything without the need of changing classes (MMO balance nightmare) I'm absolutely in, but what kills it for me and maybe its an unpopular opinion is seeing a guardian with a pistol or a necro with a sword LOL
