The "mix and match" part suggests the unlocks can be chosen by the player. (Gaile, confirm?)

As for unlocking the skills for a Chapter: if you buy that chapter's PVP unlcoks, they will immediately be available for use, no need for Balthazar faction.


(I can't help but add, the hype on this being good for PvE players is ridiculous. The better our Heros have it in PvE, the more I wish I had the same options for my Main...)

50% off is great and all, excpet that I can't find what the regular asking price is. Anyone know? Also, why is this still not in the store practically at the end of the day on Nov. 15?

They're late. There's nothing new in the store yet and it should have been up 1 1/2 hours ago according to the announcement.

Yeah, I just checked there and its $19.95 USD for the pvp access pack, but still no mention of the skill unlock packs. I'm guessing they'll be the same.

....thats because you're being dumb. It hasn't launched in the store yet cause theres still UHHHH 8 hours left of the day over there. Most likely the PvP packs will launch when the end of the day comes, along with the usual Thursday update, and the Bonus Mission Pack...

Over where? Its a couple hours before quitting time in Seattle now. You mean 8 hours left in the actual day? So if you're local depatment store advertises a sale beginning on Nov. 15, wouldn't you expect to be able to make your buy before midnight?

"Whos being dumb? me for actually taking their statement at face value or you for not actually reading it?"

You.

Just because they say thats when the offers good from time wise, doesn't mean it will be up then. Nowhere does it say the product in question will be offered then.

Sorry, its just the way it works!

My unlock pack is called "Priest of Balthazaar" Only missing a few non-elite Assassin skills, non-elite Ritualist skills, a few elite and non-elite Dervish skills, and lastly alot of Paragon skills. But considering faction is easy enough to come by I could have them all unlocked in a week or two if I wasn't lazy about it.

Pretty sure there would have to be a skill trainer for you to purchase it from. Unlocking skills doesn't give them to your characters, just makes them available to purchase from the skill trainers.

I think it's more of the fact that, except for PvE only ones, which are not included in the pack, there are no other GW:EN elites.

A surprising move for ArenaNet. Normally, one milks a franchise for all its worth when it is dying (i.e. Star Wars, Pokemon)

The fact that Guild Wars is doing it now, with GW2 two years away, isn't comforting.

Not true ... World of Warcraft is selling off now and they are miles away from dying ... so is GW ...

Actually, when you made this post, it was already a new day in Washington State. Still nothing in the In-Game Store at this time, and its past noon here.
Are these $19.99 each honestly?
