Hi guys,

I bought factions a few days ago and have been enjoying it quite a bit. However, today when I went to remake my R/A, I noticed that the homeland selection part of the character creation process was gone! Of course my Ritualists and Assassins were the factions race by default, but I can no longer select anything but Tyrian as my homeland for the core classes now such as warriors and rangers. It skips right from character sex to skill selection. Does anybody know why this would happen? Is it a common problem?

Thankyou!

To skill selection?

PvE charas don't have skills to pick at the start. Are you making a PvP char?

[No, I have no clue what PvP char making process is like, I don't have a free slot to check ;p]

Yeah, these are PvP characters I'm trying to make. The funny thing is, last week it worked perfectly! Now all of a sudden "homeland" selection is gone.

If you're creating a Pvp character you don't select a 'homeland.'

After you pick your gender you pick skills and attributes and then equipment and so on... it's working fine.

You used to pick a "Homeland" when creating a PvP Character, I always had to.

oh just checked and you do

Yeah homeland is supposed to be the third choice after gender when you make a PvP character. When you're making a PvE character it doesn't matter because the campaign you choose automatically selects the region's race.

If you don't choose a homeland, there's no way to use the new faces/hairstyles for the characters.

edit: sorry just noticed that you posted haha. anyways, my problem is that this is now gone, obviously. The thing is though I can still use factions armor for the core classes, but can't select a new race. It's so odd... and it's driving me insane.

Yep you do. You have to select character class, then you select sex, then you select wether you get factions or prophecies character ... and the the rest. But if you have factions you can use the same faction armor on a prophecy campaign character .. although I no you can't choose a faction character if you choose the prophecies campaign obviously. I do know that one of the faction pre-mades is a R/A ... so you could just choose that and then switch the skills as you like.

And something might have happened with your key too. Try to relog it.

Unfortunately trying to mess around with settings/key didn't do anything. I'm not sure what else to do (><)

umm send an e-mail to GW ... it usually works. Like I bought the prophecies when the 'territory change tokens' were still at 5 and before they updated to 4 which means if you use all the 5 tokens you can't travel back to your homeland ... so I emailed GW and about 2 days later they switched me to my homeland district (not campaign) but yea just e-mail them about the problem and they should be able to fix it or tell you what you can do to fix it.
