All this enthusiasm flying around and mixing with wild speculation reminds me of a comment a very good female friend of mine made many years ago, "Rather than lusting after some future, focus on the present."

So...are there going to be new skills for existing classes?
Sir Skullcrasher
any beta for chapter 2 or A-Net already got testers hard at work to find out all the bugs and exploits in the game?

well buying a new expansion is cheaper than paying a monthly fee
anyways, i'm sure that not ALL the info on chapter 2 was in this magazine preview, so there's prolly a lot of other new stuff not mentioned, including stuff added on to the old regions. so dont complain now, complain when its released and you find out for yourself what its like

Former Ruling
Everyone is like "Spirits are Overpowrd, NERF NERF"
So of course they made an entire profession that uses Spirits.
Ritualist will be my new character choice. Its like All the Ranger goodness with monk heals. If they get some nice caster stuff Rit/ranger will be my choice for real.

Does it mean new chapters or perhaps new regions?
Or perhaps some kind of event?
And if there is 2 a year, should we be worried that AN isnt providing enough content to match the price and timeline... 6months is next to nothing for modern content creation.

i kinda dont like whats goin on...
the expansion should be just that, an EXPANSION. i dont like the sound of a new pre sear area, i think the new professions r great but it should be an extended area. in other words, u should finish up the fire islands then take a boat or something to cantha where there r more missions, anet should try to mod the alredy existing characters and skills the least they can because that would pi** (not sure if thats allowed in a forum lol) the people off who spent so much time getting the skills and good stuff for there character, the ritualist and assassin should start in normal pre sear not some wierdo cantha monastery thing.
simply put, anet should only make additions not change the stuff alredy there
ps. make it so u can lvl up to like 30 or 40 when u get to cantha

And why should you only get access to Chapter 2 by finishing Chapter 1? Besides Chapter 2 is supposed to be able to be a stand alone game. It defeats purpose if you're required to finish Chapter 1 and if you have to start a new character in Pre Searing....AGAIN.
And NO! to level 30 or 40. Why do people insist on bringing this up over and over when it's been said by ANET that there are no plans at all to raise the f-ing level cap.

a few thing,
from words, it seems ritualist can be a better class than ranger to play a beastmaster role,...
and i want to know if i can use my existing character to play the storymode of the chapter 2,

Also with the additions of new professions does this mean that there will be more charater spaces, so that people dont have to delete hours of work.

i'm curious as to when chapter 2 is slated to release....was it this may or april or something or other?

"Ability to go to Cantha and change your secondary profession to ritualist or assassin."
High skill point stored characters can now begin to rejoice.
I was really hoping that they were not going to do this in addition to combining it with "low level" areas allowing people to just blitz through the game. Then have the backlash of exploitation for months till ANET corrects them.

IMO ritualist first synopsis disappointing.. so a class that melds 3 together when we can already meld 2? sooo many more ways to go IMO... course I need a lot more details but can't say it's firing me up.
tell me about the new class skills (particularly for elementalist, mesmer, ranger who are the current batch watching more from the outside) that might help spice those up!

i can see it now, minion factories with ritualists owning it up in HoH

Ritualist doesn't sound too bad. Like a dark priest, but it seems like he heals in wierd ways, with his spirits. So it almost sounds like an enchanter, but without enchants.
Assassin looks and sounds exciting. I can't wait to make one of each of these new professions.

Really NICE! But what it is about choosing allience in cantha. Will it be like in WoW that your enemy with an opposit allience to you or wont it matter?

And whats the thing about 55 maps that can be taken over?
zakaria
I respect this game and respect ArenaNet that tried so hard to give us CH2...so plz don't complain about getting it 50 $ then u will get shocked if it's not good as you thought..paying 50 $/Infinity Time of Good Playing = 0....Not like WOW i have to pay 15 $ per month to play game with rude ppl.
ArenaNet try to please all players as much as they can
if the makers of GW put statues of them in Tyria & Cantha...i will /kneel infront of them everytime i pass through them...
SO SHAME ON YOU..

Lets Get to Healing
Screenshots of new classes coming VERY soon acording to everyones favorite spokesperson ( you should know . . . ). Also you failed to mention the 25 new sills for each class.

I know my first char in C2 will be a sin primary, unless theres another profesion that we don't know about.

Can the idea of territory control be elaborated? Will these be much like WoW, so in other words, levels not instanced for your own party but for everyone?

Could the standard tank soon become in demand in PvE?? Stay tuned...
from the sound of it, a Ri/Mes might be interesting
Thanks Inde for doing your thang and droppin' some info on us

Hmm, is it a violation of copyright if you actually post WHO wrote the thing and who has the copyright? Or do you have to ask them first?
But on the Cantha topic, I can't wait! Assassin with dual-wield... Finally a proper sub-profession for my warrior.
