Would be very cool if we could travel with our hero party to all unlocked cities and missions (in cantha+tyria). Must be fun to play some annoying missions with "better npcs". =)


edit: omfg I want to play fow with heros no leavers after half of time^^ would be sooo cool.

Don't you have to be Ascended to get access to FoW/UW?

If thats the case then heroes would never be able to enter.

I hope so because it would help in deserted areas (many people will migrate to Elona after NF release). However I doubt it will happen. Probably it will be chapter specific, same as Factions storage upgrade.

it seems like they will be available because the whole interface changed and commanding npc's was available in factions even during the preview, only time will tell tho.. 28 days left if my maths is correct!

I hope that Hereos will be a standard feature through out the upcoming expansions. Having Koss through every campaign will get boring, so new ones will be needed.

Just because the upgrade is chapter specific, doesn't mean it's limited to only that chapter. Tyrian Xunlai agents let you access the material storage after you bought it in Cantha, so the upgrade isn't limited to Factions only, so long as you own Factions. So if you've unlocked the heros in Elona, you should, theoretically anyway, be able to bring them anywhere with you. If enough people ask for it, it may just happen.

by chapter specific he means that it is only available to people who have bought factions. However, I don't think we can even compare storage and heroes because storage is novelty, and while it does help, it's still only a bonus. Heroes on the other hand, were not designed for cantha/tyria/uw/fow or any of those other places I forgot to mention.

While I agree it would be fun, I believe it would screw up alot of the balance, and make alot of those places that are already lifeless, even more so because people won't need groups at all now. So, I'm not expecting to be able to travel the world with heroes, but I'm not saying it wouldn't be fun once in a while.

I have no clue as to whether they'd allow to take the heroes back to Tyria/Cantha, although I think they shouldn't as it would provide an advantage to those who have Nightfall.
As for FOW and UW, I doubt they'd allow it. Henchman are not allowed into FoW/UW and Heroes are mearly improved versions of henchman, so they shouldn't be allowed either.

ugh. the problem is that herops are so much better than most PuGs because of the extremely good teamwork, Since only one person is commanding there aren't gruop splits, peopel runnning away to save them selves.

and even better, you can be sure that the skills will complement each other.
having one mind behind a team is muc hbetter than having 8 minds.

How would it be an advantage? people dont fight each other in PVE. people without nightfall could still party with people that have heros

If your controling them are they still improved henchman or one of your characters that you can play at the same time as your real character?

I say if someone has the skills to control heroes enough to bring them into the UW let them.

So do I, but if I have the skills to control the regular henchmen, why shouldn't I be allowed to bring them in as well?
I'd like to be able to bring the heroes down there too, but I'd doubt they'd let us if they don't allow the regular henchmen.
