Minor spoiler warning for the first two campaigns!


Anet seems to have prepared pretty well for the Dervish and Paragon, providing counters where necessary, but the old campaigns still have a couple unique elements I've been thinking of.

The main thing I was wondering about was the Celestial Skills gained from Kuunavang in the last two missions of Factions. "Celestial Avatar?" "Shout to the Stars?" Or will they get anything at all?
There's also the Doppelganger. When he uses an Avatar, will he just turn into Grenth or Melandru or your Avatar of choice?

I'm sure there are other quirks of the old campaigns Anet will need to address, but these are the main two that stick out in my mind. Thoughts?

i am curious in general as to which missions and zones will be broken by the campains, Cantha in particular runs off massive mobs, which lol, the paragons and dervishes are ideal for.

Why would you give the Doppelganger any Dervish skills to get through? Just go Necromancer secondary and take sacrifice skills like everyone else.

Lol, I just went in with my assassin and frenzy, and let him give me the opportunity to hit him twice as hard, didn't take a single other skill

Or you could go /R and take 5 spirits and 3 attacks. He'll waste all his time using these spirits while you kill him.
