Forgive me if this has been asked, but if we (meaning the people who preordered) get access to Factions one day early on April 27th, does this mean the store we bought it from will give us the game one day early? I have a feeling that with the preorder mess, this won't be the case.

Also, does anyone know if you'll be able to start a new 'core profession' (W/R/E/Mo/Me/N) player in Cantha or will only ritualists and assassins start from there when making a new character? Thanks

No, you'll need to buy the game by 11:59 pm April 28.

Yes, you'll be able to create any of the 8 professions in Cantha. It's a stand alone game, remember?

Not sure on this. Are they going to assume anyone with a pre-order key has access then shut it off on the 28th if they don't see the Factions SE/CE retail key or must you have the retail key on the account.

Factions roll out has not been as smooth as Chapter 1 this time around w/ venders (pre-order kits, dealy for any info on CE, preorder where there not getting the kits, etc.)

More to the point... what will the prices be like at the merchants for superior runes for the new class's xD.. or materials for that matter!

do merchants share pricing with their Tyria neigbors?

Good Point... It would be another incentive to have chapter 1.

Not sure I understand the question... the "free" early access ends at 11:59 pm April 28. No "ifs", "ands" or "buts."

you have a 24 hour grace period to enter your retail key

you have until 11:59:59 PM of the 28th to go to a store and buy or input a retail key to keep it live after 12:00 AM on the 29th
