They have already stated that the new hero won't be an Assassin or a Ranger, so no need to worry about those two professions.

People are referring to the possibility of getting Miku as an assassin hero from Winds of Change. Stumme said there will be a hero reward for HotN and it won't be a ranger or an assassin. He didn't say anything about a hero from WoC (that includes whether or not there will be one).

From my understanding, we aren't getting a hero from HotN. The hero we are getting is from WoC. In the interview, he states that we will be rewarded a hero for completing WoC, not HotN.

I'm assuming that when he says "All said and done" he is including WoC as well since he is talking about that.

I believe Stumme sais somewhere on wiki that we will get a new hero during HotN, somewhere around the wedding. Can't find it atm, so I'm not able to quote if for you, but I think Dancing Gnome is correct. No prove though :3

We have three already. Why would you want another one?

Which is why one would be unexpected

so we can have four?

with the upcoming 7 heroes update it would be possible to utilise all four warr heroes...if you really wanted to.

Well he also stated in another interview that the new hero would be someone we have worked with before and is facepalm obvious.

But, does that mean someone we've worked with in Factions (seeing as the new hero is part of the WoC), or someone we worked with in WiK?

By the time everything is all said and done relating to the return/wedding arc, people will have another Hero in their parties.

The hero Stumme has been talking about is for HotN. However there may also be hero rewards in WoC since Stumme also said

We've added Heroes this way in the past, notably with M.O.X., and to a lesser extent, Zenmai and Olias got the same treatment, and it's something I'd like to carry forward with future content.

So WoC heroes are just (logical) supposition, but nothing specific has been mentioned of them.

Actually just found the interview myself too. Except from IncGamers.

After all of the wedding content is completed, a new Hero will have joined the player’s party – and the rewards from the content along the way will doubtlessly help some players accomplish a bit more in their Hall of Monuments.

So yes you were right, my mistake. Thought the new hero was being released after WoC.

I'm still betting my money on ghostly togo like I predicted a long while ago, you will all bow to me when I'm right muhaha.

The wedding and the hero should come quickly now btw, only a few more weeks till it's next year and we also got Wintersday coming

Diamond of Ahdashim would be sexy..

This was my thoughts as well. They did say the wedding would be wrapped up before Wintersday, which means any time now hopefully.

Acehole2006 · Dec 13, 2010, 09:47 AM // 09:47

Im really looking forward to the wedding. I doubt it will but im really hoping there is a cutscene instead of just standing around in a town. Think that will happen?

I seriously doubt it. I expect the wedding to be just like Zinn's Trial. A static dialogue event, although I think they did say there would be an option for us to speak for either the bride or the groom. I guess you get a menu and select a predetermined speech to everyone depending on who you selected (either Keiran or Psycho Bat).

Hopefully that doesn't come at the cost of the dervish update being delayed until next year.

Acehole2006 · Dec 13, 2010, 12:14 PM // 12:14

Yeah real sad though

. Would be quality to have a decent cutscene for such a nice event.

FoxBat · Dec 13, 2010, 04:03 PM // 16:03

Part of the reason they don't cutscene it is there's no voice. Although it would be nice if only for the ability to skip something you've seen 10 times already.

Kunder · Dec 14, 2010, 12:05 AM // 00:05

If the hero is to be unexpected then it most certainly must be one from the Spanish White Mantle Inquisition.
