Thank you for all of that information Gayle, it lessens the state of Panic I was in by quite a bit, now if the next news would be that wisdom titles are account based from Nightfall on my panic state would abate completely.

Note : not that I disagree with the in game effect of the wisdom title but I will have 8 characters to acquire it for and that is a bit much

Heroes: proof that Anet doesn't want to screw the guys who 'wasted their time' capping all elites on their main characters

Skill capping stays the same way then? Like does that mean in order to unlock and elite on a hero, your player needs to cap that skill? Or do these skill trainers have all the elites as well without actually having to cap them?

Why? unless you just want to acquire the wisdom title for all 8 characters, just pick one character, level that character up in the wisdom title and have that character be the one that ID's rare items and is the one that extracts the prefix/suffix from the item of your choice; that's what I'm going to do! But I do like your idea of account based so I don't have to constantly switch items to that character, but, c'est la vie!

Yeah thanks I was hoping that my Warrior hero could still use my charge like in WPE.I really enjoyed that controling his charge.

Doh! I was hoping there'd be hero-only skills. Any plans to implement that in the future?

I heard that there is a hero to be unlocked in Tyria and in Cantha. Anyone know anything in regards of how they can be unlocked, and what profession they are?

Does every boss in Elona drop a green, like the Canthan ones do? I've killed several Elonan bosses, and have yet to see a green. Perhaps having your heros out with you decreases your chance at getting a drop?

Also, I'd like to share a tip with all my Dervish buddies: When you get Dunkoro (the monk hero), make him a protection monk, and give him cheap, spammable enchants like Reversal of Fortune and Life Sheath. The extra enchants help you with many of ur dervish skills, and the health and energy boost they provide when they trigger your Mysticism really helps.

This is my first time on the site, and I have to say it looks really helpful. I'd appreciate any info you could send my way ^.^

Well apparently when you use a Hero Trainer to unlock skills those skills become available for your character as well as the hero.

I unlocked all the dervish skills I could get in the Sunspear academy before realizing the Hero Trainer was not a skill trainer for me...

Now I'm short on skills for my heroes, but I've managed to get enough to fill in and I'd already unlocked a lot of them by playing a Ritualist / Monk in Factions (so that when I got Dunkoro, he had enough choices to keep me going, and I made Koss a secondary ritualist so that I could use the few slots I had left by the time I figured this out for his warrior end).

But my character got an early boost... :P

I hope someone can help me out on this...

Shiloh, the Hero Skill person at Sunspear Great Hall, has Shattering Assault. I want that for my Assassin as well as for my Heroes. I did the quests to get Promotion Points, farmed a bit in Arkjok Ward, and got to First Spear, as well as getting Zenmai. I have 6 Hero Points, but when I click to get Shattering Assault I get no reply. What is the problem?

I have acquired a pet for my hero Jin using Charm Animal, but now I would like a new pet for my hero. Unfortunately, there appears to be no way to remove the old pet since talking to the animal trainer has no effect. Will this be fixed?
