Should I get EOTN?

Ok, so I am a basically a PvP only but I do have a VWK farmer that just sits around. I know SWAY uses crippling victory, and monks use a skill or two usually from EOTN, but overall, how necessary is EOTN for PvP, especially GvG? When EOTN first came out, everyone was like, "You only need the 3 campaigns" but now people are using EOTN more and more. Should I get it? It's 30 bucks at EB though, makes me wonder why it is 40 bucks at the Guild Wars store! Seems like a lot.

so should I get it? why or why not

Some of the skills are useful in PvP. But there are not near as many as with other GW games, and there are no new elites.
If your not sure check around for cheaper prices. I've seen some threads pop up saying that places like "Target" have the game for less than 30 dollars.

To answer your questions directly: I would get it because it is a beautiful game that adds even more content to an already enormous adventure. (but I'm mostly a PvEer)

I would get EOTN. If you look hard enough you can find it for 10-20 bucks.

If you are really only interested in PvP primarily you might consider just getting the Eye of the North Skill Unlock Pack?

without writing an essay.... my answer is .... YES

Its $10 at Target and $17 at Circuit City. At those prices it is well worth it.
Don't pay anything more then $25 for it (EB, Wal-mart, etc may have selection, but their pricing stinks).

You can't get that pack unless you already bought eotn or have the pvp access kit.

If I dont get EOTN I can kiss HA and Monking goodbye for a long while. I don't really see a choice in the matter.

It's no longer $10 at Target, they brought it back up to 30.

At least it was when I last checked. It was a temporary price cut.

The question is, are the skills in EOTN that you want similar to other skills? If you can sub other skills, then you probably don't "Need" it. Beyond that, it's your choice if you want it.

Got my copy at amazon for 19.99 Sunday. Should be here in 2 more days.

Monk:

Aura of Stability=Enchantment Spell. For 3...9...10 seconds, target other ally cannot be knocked down.

etc etc etc etc etc
I am sure there are a few more

Only CV and AoS can be replaced, but those are both replaced with higher costing skills in one way or another, and AoS required another class entirely. The way it is now, if you don't have EOTN, you can't PvP seriously. It really sucks, and I'm NOT going to pay more than 20 dollars for it. I refuse. I'll quit first. Again. Ok, i guess I will just stick to PD for now until it goes down in price.
