Haha, if you managed to finish all that, talk to Jamei in Maatu Keep. Jamei should now offer two quests pick either:
Journey to Cavalon
or
Journey to House zu Heltzer
If you picked Journey to Cavalon, then go to Zos Shivros Channel and talk to the guard there. If you picked Journey to House zu Heltzer, go to Altrumm Ruins and talk to the guard there.
Question: Are there any special end-game armors like Obsidian armor in prophecies? Yes, there are end game and special armors but on a smaller scale to Obsidian armor sets. 3 different types of 15k armor are available: Luxon sets, Kurzicks sets and special endgame sets. These all require different materials depending on what set you choose and what class you are. They all require 15000 gold per piece crafted.
Assassins and Ritualists have 6 sets of 15k armor available to them, Luxon, Kurzick and 3 endgame sets.
Question: Where do i craft the Luxon/Kurzick 15k armors?
Luxon
For the Luxon armors, you must have made it to Cavalon and finished the quest Befriending the Luxons from Elder Rhea (which requires you to aquire 10k Luxon Faction), then take the quest Stolen Eggs which leads to Gyala Hatchery. Once finished Gyala Hatchery, you get sent to the Leviathan Pits where the armor crafter is.
Kurzick
For the Kurzick armors, you must have made it to House zu Heltzer and finished the quest Befriending the Kurzicks from Count zu Heltzer (which requires you to aquire 10k Kurzick faction), then take the quest The Defenders of the Forest that leads to Eternal Grove, finishing that lands you in Vasburg Armory where the armor is.
Question: Where can I get the Jadeite/Amber required to make the 15k armors? Jadeite Shards and Amber are aquired from Cavalon and House zu Heltzer. Jadeite Shards cost 1000 Luxon Faction each from the the Faction Rewards NPCs at Cavalon. Amber can be obtained from the House zu Heltzer Factions rewards NPC and costs 1000 Kurzick faction each.
Will I be able to play as a Luxon or Kurzick when my guild is oppositely aligned?
YES! You will be able to play as a Luxon if your guild is Kurzick or the other way around. As you gain faction from quests, you can either add them to your guild pool, or redeem them for yourself. If you play as the opposite faction from your guild, of course you won't be able to contribute to your guild standing but you can redeem the points for yourself.
Question: Am I able to obtain armor without crafting it?
If you want to get armor for (almost) free, seek out the various collectors that will swap your monster guts for new armor. Different collectors will have different pieces of armor, bt they will always have the same piece regardless of your class, for example the Chest Armor collector for a monk will have Chest Armor for assassins too.
Kaguya has compiled information about Armor Collectors of various AL in this thread. complete with useful maps of where exactly the collectors are.
Question: What new pets are there? So far I have found a Tiger, White Tiger, Reef Lurker (red), Reef Lurker (blue), a Crane, Black Moa and another secret pet.
Question: Where do I change my secodary in Cantha? Senji [Proffesion Change] in Senji's Corner can change your secondary proffesion for you for a one time fee of 500g if you haven't done the quest for it yet in Tyria.
Question: Help! I can't change my proffesion in Tyria even though I already paid 500g to Senji!
Unfortunately to change in Tyria you must do the quest for it, but to change in Cantha you can either pay Senji or do have the quest done in the Crystal Desert, paying 500g does not unlock that proffesion to change to in Tyria.
Question: Why are some zone portals blocked off?
Some portals require you to have an active quest and update it at the end of the zone to pass through. An example of this is Welcome to Cantha
which allows you access to Vizunah Square mission if you have it active.
This was done to discourage runners.
Question: Can my characters exceed the 200 attribute point limit by doing all 4 of the quests for +15 points in Tyria and Cantha?
No. Characters coming from Tyria cannot access the quests that give +15 Attribute points on Shing Jea Island. Canthan characters coming into Tyria can complete quests in Tyria but will only recieve Gold/Experience and not additional rewards such as skills or in this case attribute points.
Question: How do I get my Canthan Character to Tyria or Tyrian Character to Cantha?
Cantha - Tyria
To get your Canthan Characters to Tyria for the first time, go to Kaineng Center and take the quest 'Chaos in Kryta' from Guardsman Chienpo, keep in mind you must have purchased both GW Factions and GW Prophecies.
Tyria - Cantha
For Tyrian characters to travel to Cantha they must talk to Firstwatch Sergio in Lion's Arch and take his quest to travel to Cantha. Note that it is not necessary to take a party for the quest as there is no fighting involved.
Characters who have already completed the quests required to access Tyria or Cantha can travel freely without need to do the quests again. Just click the ship icon near Lion's Arch or Kaineng Center and select port of choice.
Question: What different types of missions are there in Cantha?
Aside from the normal Standard Missions, GW:F includes Challenge Missions where you compete with a team of 8 to set a new record by completing a goal within alloted time. Also new are Elite Missions, which provide a new challenge and completing them shafts you some nice rewards
Question: How do Alliance Missions work?
Alliance missions put you and 11 others from your faction (8 random and 3 from the team you selected) up against 12 players from the opposing faction (Luxon/Kurzick) and you fight it out to capture bases, just kill people in general
. How it works is the first faction to gain 500 points wins the round. Points are gained by capturing bases by having more people from your team present at the base than people from the other team. Points are also gained upon kills. Holding bases grants powerful bonuses so it is better to capture and try and hold them too.Thanks to: Kaguya for Armor Collectors list and answering miscellanious questions
