Hard Mode Fact Sheet
Zinger314
"Within a matter of hours" implies 3-4 hours. It's already been 4 hours. ArenaNet's ETAs are cruel.

Zinger, you should know ArenaNet always likes to be fashionably late.

Some final questions for Gaile:
-Do elite tomes count towards the skill hunter title?
-Do we still get the 5,000 exp per elite?
-Do elite tomes count towards the skill hunter title?
-Do we still get the 5,000 exp per elite?

If you get exp it would be easy to get survivor. One more buyable title to add to the list. >.>

If I use a tome to unlock an elite and it doesn't count towards skill hunter or survivor then I'll probably just sell it.

I'm going to guess that Hard Mode will come out in 15 min(5 p.m. EST) Like Zinger said, it shoould of been 3-4 hours since the Fact sheet came out and I dont think they would push it to six.

I do eggs, I do. Just to torment me longer, because that's what they like to do.

My money is on it coming out tomorrow at noon, given that's when they're starting the next event.

I'm really interested on what my Ranger will get. And maybe Mesmers will get some "1337" skill that will make them wanted.
eggs0wn
Maybe at 6 p.m. EST?
Well I hope...

Hopefully not. Have faith Arkantos, I'm sure it will be not nearly as annoying, but I'm positive we will see Hard Mode hero builds like Zingers TOF paragons, and MM's. Builds that are more complex, and require alot more skill and coordination!
However, this sounds like its going to be an update so good one cannot describe with mere words!
Man, and these Tomes will allow access 24/7, so awesome!

I know i can just wait for the update but seeing as Gaile is probably reading this I'll ask my question.
Are the Tomes like Skill Charms that we had in Betas?

I have to admit, I am really looking forward to this, but if this turns out to be another aggro, wall, nuke, rinse repeat for hours and hours on end area like DoA, I'll be extremely dissapointed. Here's hoping that Mesmers and Assasins can find their place in higher level gameplay.
MMSDome
When they say complete the game do you need a protector title??? And if so is it at least one character having a protector title in each campaign, never got answers for this when ive asked in the past?
Gli
I'm really hoping a lot of it is doable by just a few guys and their heroes. That's how I prefer to play, being in a small guild with just real-life friends.
LoKi Foxfire
I don't know if you ever made cracks about people who go on their time schedule; usually they will say 30 minutes which somehow ends up taking 3 times as long. Well I believe A-net is a prime example of this! 
A matter of hours...
Supposed time: 3-4 hours
Loki time: 4-5 hours
A-net time: 48-72 hours
Haha, seriously though I think they'll either release it this evening or in the middle of the night for East coasters... hopefully not Friday night! :3
Awesome!

Some info from the official wiki regarding a Gaile chat today. Summary Party leader will have Hard mode toggle Gamer weekend maybe coming soon. No Day of the Tengu this year or any event planned for the near future. No Hard mode in Pre-Searing. Skill Hunter will be split as soon as Hard mode goes live. No character slots for GW:EN, they would be unnecessary. Gaile will probably be back later today after the patch goes live. |

PvE only, but are they also hard-mode only?
