Will there be a new realm of the gods in Nightfall

In the porphecies you know the lyssa dwayna and melandru statues that activate when yoru region has favor but you cant enter their realms, will one of them or maybe all of them be availible in Nightfall? I mean factions didn't offer it so we only have the underworld and FoW, but a new one maybe dwayna or melandru would be cool. Also will there be new armor crafters like the one in the FoW.

They still need to get rid of favor before they work on adding more content PvE has to rely on PvP to gain access too. Once favor is gone, I can see requesting or needing more areas like these, till then, it's a rather dead and dry issue; IMO.

WasAGuest I dunno what you're goin on about. The favor system is just fine. You don't NEED to go to FoW or UW to progress in the game, they are there to help bridge the gap between PvP and PvE. How is it a dead and dry issue? I haven't heard of a single player who wouldn't like to explore a new realm. It is in no way a dead and dry issue, look at sardelac sanitarium, people are constantly suggesting and building upon ideas for these new realms, still think it's a dead and dry point?

As for the OP's question, I really doubt they will add one or more of the other gods' realms. I'm suer they will come at some point but I doubt it will be with the release of a new chapter. The only way I can see this happening with Nightfall is if they don't have some kind of Elite missions like in Factions. If there are no Elite missions than I think there would be room for a new realm. So more than likely it won't happen but then again maybe it could.

I was expecting a realm for Factions, least one. They made none. So... but who knows, the statues are still there in ToA, maybe one day- when they can no longer keep on coming with new skills/prof- they will go back to that.

Not sure about a realm of the gods. But I would imagine there is a separate realm you can travel to as a mission where this outcast god was banished to.

It would be really cool if they did add a new realm of the gods with Nightfall, as mentioned it will probably only be in there if there is no sort of "Elite Mission" areas added. I'd actually rather have a new realm of the gods than new high-end areas that use the Elite Mission system.

There better be the last three realms or someone is going to be really pissed.

Well, looks like someones gonna be pissed. :P
I think if they don't 'fix' favor, then we'll just be seeing Elite missions for now.

what is there to "fix" about the Favour System, i didnt hear you guys nagging when America constantly had the favour and Europe only at night. And now its a bid balanced between America and Europe an suddenly it needs to be "fixed"

Never said there was anything wrong with it, it's just that everyone else thinks it needs to be 'fixed'.
I like it how it is.

Don't think there will be a new realm.

Factions was more PvP-based, and Nightfall is going to be more PvE-based. Hopefully this means at least 1 new god realm with Nightfall. I'm thinking maybe it will be Dwayna's for this chapter.

how does favor need to be fixed???
The majority of players play at night in whatever continent they live in. Their continent usually has favor at that time because obvioulsy they have more people on at that time.

I would REALLY like a new realm of the god's tho. it would be awsome getting to go to a new area for high end pve.

i'd love to see a new realm also..beating Fow/UW isnt that hard once you have done it a few times.

as for getting rid of favor....NO, favor makes the realms what they are without favor they would turn into a highly over farmed area..the drops would be near worthless

I personally don't think the favor system is "just fine". These days its always the same. Europe has favor at day, US has it at night. Its should be more random or removed.

Anyways weither they remove favor or not they should add in a new realm.

Brother Gilburt

It would be cool to have a realm based off of the 'outcast' god. Like, fighting his hordes of enemies or something along those lines.

Too bad Europe and America arent the only places that play this...

Since both GW and GW-F have a zone to access these zones, when/if they add a new one, both games should get access to them.

I'm content with the Server's at war for now.. but with them just adding the number of "servers" as they bring more countries in to GW.. I can see some countries rarely ever seeing it.

I dont think they will be added in the next chapter but i think they will come in future updates....
a long time in the future

The favour system does need to be fixed. I dont see why my PvE experience should be governed by the PvP players of my region. Im fairly sure that if Entry to HA was governed by your region's performance in clearing ToPK there would be an uproar from PvP only players.

I can see the need to attract new players to pvp via the Halls Of Heros but it does pose the following problem: some countries / regions never get the Favour. When I started GW America had the Favour, now Europe has it. I would be pretty choked if I was from an Asian region and needed some FOW armor. Lets look now at the GW-F PvP: A lot of veterant players have turned themselves and there guilds into Faction Farming machines. AB-ing is starting to suck since players are going around doing whatever, so a lot of Faction Farmers are now runing the Conservatory quest or fighting in fort Aspen Wood. Spending my two hours a day collecting 10k to 20k just to be able to get in a decent guild is not my idea of relaxing-after-work-fun!!!

Favor:
For PvE favor means you can access areas you should normally be able to access all the time. It limits the playability of the game world. It attempts to "bridge" the player base, when in reality it only causes strife and frustration (look at this very thread ).

For PvP it means you've won HoH... yet the players get no long lasting "favor" for doing so. How many of those that won HoH jump off to go quest in UW/FoW?
Favor is a pointless and meaningless irritant that needs to be removed from the game world or altered in a way that no content is restricted and having favor actually has some meaning other than to say "Yay, we won favor!".

What's really sad is that this needs to be explained yet again as the same broken favor system has been in play since it's introduction. Please don't babble on that it is not broken, all you have to do is read the above and see that it is.
I eagerly await the same dry arguments that favor defenders always come up with. A quick list:
Go win HoH then
Get better at PvP then
Your playing the wrong game
Go play WoW
Favor is needed so PvP has something

Just from this quick list, we can see favor is for PvP as even the defence of favor "favors" PvP. It has no meaning in PvE other than an artificial restriction.

There's always more and variations on those, but they are always the same meaningless dribble. Fix or remove favor, then begin adding more god-realms.

Arenanet has already said there will be no new areas (like Sorrow's Furnace) outside of Chapter Releases.

I doubt there will ever be a new realm of the gods.

Anet would rather put their development efforts into getting people to buy the newest chapter, instead of giving free stuff to people who aren't buying new chapters.

And if they stopped making the realms shared content between all chapters, they'd piss a lot of people off.

I don't even WANT them to come up with new professions. I liked PvPing the best when only prophecies was there, It got worse with the introduction of the rit and the assassin, and I doubt it'll get better when the Paragon and Dervish show up.
