how do I enter hero battle??

Hi guys,

I can not find the battle isles!!
I have all my hero's unlocked (I also have read on wiki where to look and what to do) but i can not find the hero battle isles, i only have pve characters and no free slot to make a pvp and unlock the isles.
Could some 1 help me plz, tnx

Zoom the map out, and look for the boat icon. Click on it, and there will be an option called "Great Temple of Balthazar" or something to that effect. Select it, and travel there. You will then be on the battle isles. Press the map button again to see the isles and the different areas you can travel to for random arena, team arena, heros battles, etc, etc.

EDIT: if there is something you have to do to unlock the battle isles, I'm not familiar with what it is/was. I've been playing for nearly 1.5 years and don't remember how it worked..It's something I would have done long ago.. I just have all the battle island stuff open already.. sorry.

I'm looking for Hero battle isles, i know how to get to great temple of balthazar.

The Hero Battle arena is, I thought, part of the island chain you are on when you are at the great temple.. You press M, and it shows up on the right hand side of the map. I'm sorry if I'm misunderstanding.. here look at this map:

If you haven't got the icon for Hero Battles, there must be something you have to do to unlock it, and I'm not sure what that is, I'm sorry to say. Someone else will probably be able to help.

Maybe this helps!! I do not see any hero battle isles

Wiki Quote:
Getting There
Map travel to The Battle Isles (Great Temple of Balthazar) from Tyria, Elona or Cantha.
To access Hero Battles you must unlock at least three Heroes onto your account. If you haven’t already unlocked the first three Heroes, just complete Zaishen Basic Training with a PvP character, then talk to the Priest of Balthazar, who will give you free unlocks.
Once unlocked this way, you can map travel to the Hero Battle at any time.
You must have Nightfall, or you cannot unlock any Heroes

It's supposed to be on the island east of the team arenas, i never did anything to unlock it.

Ya that's odd, sorry I couldn't help.. I assume you have logged out and back in already a few times? I know there have been things I have unlocked before (like secondaries), but I couldn't switch them on my skills screen until I logged back out and back in again.. Otherwsie, I just don't know.

I have the same problem. I didnt know about them until now, so i just hopped on and bam, not there.

I rolled a PvP char and talked to the Priest and he didn't do anything. so I hopped on my PvE derv and tried a couple times and eventually I got them unlocked.. the Priest is just really retarded sometimes :s

It said it unlocked after a couple of random arena battles... as I recall. I may be wrong but that may be the problem...

Alternatively you can try the Zashien path and see if it unlocks from that. It very well may. I honestly don't remember when it popped up. lol I had that as the gladiators arena at one time, but it became that when nightfall came out.

Once its unlocked once its unlocked forever.

k when i got NF talk to the priest at temple of balth near the trophy in the middle.There we go

I tryed everything now, but still nothing works for me, i even talked to every singil priest of balthazar i could find . I still need to try the random arena idea, but it should not be that way!! anyway i will give that a go soon

There is a Bug in Hero Battles!
some people, like myself will not be able to unlock it! Unless..
you create a pvp char, and then go to the isles and speak to 1 of the reward guys, then u will unlock it..
so if u want it badly..u have 2 delete one of ur pve chars and make a pvp char.
GL
ps:imo Hero Battles are Crap..then again im no good at pvp.

Madea PvP char, talked to the priest and now its there.

tnx guys, i gues i have to w8 for a new character slot or something, i'm not going to delete character for a bug (if it is a bug).
/sigh
I hear a lot about this hero battles (good and bad), i just wanted to try it for my self .

tnx again all.
