New Hero, M.O.X. the Golem

3 heroes of each profession sound nice.
We don't need 4 warriors, maybe because we cant use 4 heroes?!
And Norgu does not represent me, im not fat and do not have a mustache.
I hope its not MOX isnt exactly like the other golems, that would be lame.

Great news about the hero and to be honest the, Complete guild wars collection for £24 at play.com is excellent, i might get that for a second account, At the very least everyone needs storage

Ahh...
Oh, and now that you can get the entire game (with 8 character slots) for $50, maybe its about time to lower to cost of character slots? Ah? No. Oh well, more buisness lost.

Martin Kerstein posted on wartower.de that the official price will be £34.99 / €44.99 and there is no release date yet.
Play.com had a GW ultra edition announced for last year's summer. Don't trust all they post.

Thank you to all the team at Anet and to Regina for letting us know that this was a reality!
I know how much hard work you are doing and appreciate everything you do for the players.

My question is why a dervish why not a Mesmer or one of the other professions that dose not have 3 yet like sin, rit, and para?
BenjZee
this is different from the usual limited edition stuff so i dont expect it to be the only way of gettin MOX neither do i expect them to sell them in the online store.
I would prefer for the ultimate edition to have it but also for those who have all 3 versions - kinda similar to the way the mini moa chick egg works.
edit:
actually bothered to read more of the thread
It sounds great becuase i own all the games so theres gotta be a way for me to obtain him (him?)...i tihnk the heroes amount is fair because if you owned nightfall you got one of each profession + spares for the ones you will most need. (2 monks; 1 prot, 1 heal etc)... EOTN gave us 1 of each profession which is useful if you don't own nightfall but i see it as a an added bonus when you own both as it completes the set of giving a different gender for each profession.

It will not be a Hero whose Profession you can change at any time. Mox is a Dervish. |
Is the box the same as the one that was floating around here for a while?
Ascension
alliance
abyss or something like that.
Dante the Warlord
Eh... if the golem doesn't have anything special about him, i wouldn't bother... BTW thats almost $50 for the entire set!!!! WOW I paid around that for just one campaign, might get it for a friend or something....

Last year's imaginary "Ascension Box" had a complete artbook included.
joshuarodger
well i'm a little ticked that i just spent 85 bucks plus shipping and all that crap, for the whole set for an alternate account when i could have waited a month for the $50 box set. oh well maybe account #3?? i could always use more reward points at the beginning of each month so we'll see.

The box will not be released at the same date across territories, so release dates vary.
In different news: Nice avatar seut, loved that game ^^
Minako Sawai
Follow up on my own question, it does appear to be the same. Amazon.com has a picture of the GW Trilogy box for their pre-order and it says "Includes the BONUS Golem Hero!"

For people complaining that it's going to be a derv as opposed to an assassin or a mesmer - how many of you use assassins or mesmers as your heroes, or would need to use more than one?

Chrono Re delle Ere
Doesn't bother me at all.
sindex
It would be cool, if they made a Tengu hero as an Assassin or Ritualist sometime in the future.
Dervish Kid
3 derv heroes is tight.then we need 1 more sin,1 more rit, and 1 more mesmer
-Makai-
I'm grateful we're getting something for free, even if it is a profession I don't use.
Also, I hope it doesn't look like a run-of-the-mill G.O.L.E.M. Asking for a new skin/model at this point is probably wishful thinking. Making it look similar to a Forgotten Weapon, in my opinion, would be an excellent choice.

I'd be happy with an Iron Forgeman skin.

Hmmm - I'm wondering about armor upgrades for it like "cloth of the brotherhood." Wonder if they will be available.
Lady Raenef
Personally, I'm okay with this hero being exclusive. As long as it's a regular profession without any separate skills to set them apart, it awards those who are that dedicated to get all four games. It would just be a standard hero but make new players feel like they have some power on their side, whether or not they are simply purchasing all four games again or they're a new player, it's the reward that counts.
And to those complaining about having the three campaigns and the expansion already, I'm with you there. But, I don't care.
It's like this. The buyer of the box set cleaned the whole house in one sitting. As for us, we took several day breaks before we finished cleaning the whole house. The faster worker obviously deserves a reward. Shelling out $200 isn't something every paycheck to paycheck household can do. You may as well complain that the people who buy the CE of individual games get a special dance plus a bonus minipet or what not.

There's also another important thing to note about Mox. He will not be usable in PvP. There are several reasons for this. First is his massive size. There were concerns about players using him to make target selection more difficult. Secondly, Mox's Avatar forms look different. The designers were concerned about having players learning another set of Avatar forms, and thought this would not be a good idea for PvP. Thirdly, it's difficult to tell what weapons Mox is wielding, and this is another important concern in PvP. After weighing all these factors, the designers came to the decision that allowing Mox in PvP had more negatives than positives, thus this Hero is PvE-only.

Seems interesting. No problems here, as I am PvE-only as well. Woot.
I agree though, that Derv makes the most sense. I can't see a Golem being able to move fast enough to be a Sin, or have the nimble-ness to be a Mes. >_>
Sorn Xarann
Yea, besides the fact that i don't use melee heroes, it all seems cool, and im rather excited to get Mr. Mox
MrGuildBoi
So which one of these will be our hero?
Stolen Souls
My guess would be the second one

good to see Regina keeping us informed

Yay, gg Anet

I'm very excited for a new Derv hero, it might give me some insentive to stray away from Sabway for a bit.
Lyonette
lol a Golem hero, this is sweet 
can't wait to have a massive amount of animated stone thumping around with me in Tyria xD!

Lady Raenef
Ah, reading the forum pages I now know that this will be obtainable by everyone. So, Regina, want to share a basis of how MOX will attack based on his massive size? Will weapons be small thumb tacks or be large and massive quite like the GOLEM itself?
Dr.Jones
i don't know having 3 rits, or paras could be useful for a spike build in pve. but its nice to hear that it is pve only will there be a more plan ch that would be used for pvp???
edit: in response to wut some one else posted i would use mesmers or sins or rits or paras more often if a paras actually maintained refrains and i would use the other classes more if i had 3 of them being able to control 3 heros opens up a lot of different builds. also thanks Regina for responding.
