PvP Access Kit*

Gain instant access to the player-versus-player portion of Guild Wars with the PvP Access Kit. This package contains everything you need to jump right into the competitive world of Guild Wars PvP! No other Guild Wars purchase necessary.

Create and play PvP-Only characters from any of ten Guild Wars professions across all three campaigns (Warning: Access to roleplaying characters requires purchase of a Guild Wars campaign.)

The PvP Access Kit also includes 60 free unlocks (20 elite skills, 20 normal skills and 20 items) to help you power up your game instantly. Mix and match with Skill and Item Unlock Packs to further enhance your PvP characters.

Question: My friend is considering getting the game, but they only wanted to pvp in GW, and dont want to pay $100+ for the games. so this sounds like the perfect fit for only $20 USD. I know from playing the game you can unlock everything necessary by getting balth faction, including elites, skills, mods, etc. I really just want someone to confirm that this is a real deal and works the way they say it does. Also the random * is confusing on the website too.

By getting this package this is what i assume should happen:
My friend gets their own account, with 4 character slots that can only be used for PvP characters. They will have access to every pvp avenue of GW (from GvG to AB). They will be able to unlock every skill from every campaign with balth faction, and use every profession.

thanks for responses.

Not sure if you can play with JUST the pvp package, but maybe I'm wrong.

Also, you wouldn't be able to unlock factions/nightfall/eotn skills.

Yes you can, and incorrect. The PvP access kit gives you access to all 4 chapters worth of skills, heroes, etc. Just in PvP.

so you can play with just the pvp pack, thats good. Dark, do you own the pvp pack/how do you know this?

also it said somewhere that you can use any prof from fact/NF so im not worried about the skills question because ofc you could get skills for the prof you play.
