come on people, isn't it obvious? Its Thackeray. You already have Gwen as a party member, they get married, and now you have to lug her husband around as well! How else are they going to be making babies?

To be quite honest, I'd rather they didn't do that when they're around me.

This is how. In GW2, we'll have to help Logan solve the mystery of an ancient record claiming Gwen died a virgin.

Mad King Thorn. Everyday his profession changes. It's obvious, guys.

Umm, I assume you can't do these quests if you haven't finished War in Kryta. So you can't get the new hero then, either?

Winds of Change is in no way tied to WiK/HotN. So you ought to be fine even if you've never touched current GW:B content or don't even have Prophecies campaign.

I think

I thought Miku (from HotN) was the way that you got into the Winds of Change content. I also recall reading somewhere that the Ebon Falcons were going to be involved outside of Tyria.

Zaishen quests were originally concepted as account-wide, meaning you could only do a quest once on that account per day (and presumably with better rewards.) However they could not get the quest log to share info across the account like that. There are various account-wide datas in guild wars but the important point is that these all must be stored completely separate from character data, and character data itself by definition is not.

Yet, oddly, they were able to get the Nicholas gift count to go account-wide. <_<

She may be in it - but that doesn't necessarily mean that you have to do the events in Tyria and the Far Shiverpeaks in order to go do the stuff in Cantha. Or to do the stuff in Elona that is most likely to come along sometime after the Winds of Change...

NerfHerder · Dec 15, 2010, 04:50 PM // 16:50

You will need to have completed WiK/HotN storyline to get the next hero. Which should be soon, around wintersday event. There is a possibility of a new hero for Cantha:WoC but I dont think it has been confirmed. The next hero will be someone related to the WiK/HotN storyline and not a Ranger or Assassin. Who or what may also be /facepalm obvious.

WiK/HotN and Cantha:WoC are seperate content. WiK/HotN is not required to start C:WoC content. However, your character will need to have completed Factions in order to begin C:WoC.

If you require sources, reread the thread.

She's more like a teaser or a lead into Winds of Change (people seem to think it has to do with the myserious employer of the White Mantle from Hearts of the North). So it kinda leads on where HotN leaves off with Miku, but you don't need to play through it to begin Winds of Change. Honestly, it doesn't really reveal a tonne of information, just cryptic hints and a bit of vague background info on Miku. If you don't end up experiencing it you probably won't miss much from WoC, it's more of a fun way to introduce her and flesh her out a bit for those interested.

Miku does become friends with Keiran Thackery (the leader of the Ebon Falcons) and it's possible this will form some kind of alliance or bond which will them to Cantha to aid in whatever struggles Miku faces when she returns. She might even turn up for the wedding before that happens, we have to wait.

Good job to all the people who had guessed thackeray as a paragon hero.

Leaves the question though.... it was expected, so why say its something we dont expect....

By saying it was something we don't expect that's what helped people figure it out.

We expected it to be him from the beginning (the obvious choice) but we were told it wasn't a ranger. This threw some people off of the trail.

Then we were told it was something we wouldn't expect (we expected Keiran as a ranger not to change professions into a paragon) and that it was still obvious.

By being told it was unexpected... it made us look outside to box and at things we wouldn't expect it to be (the famous ranger becoming a paragon). It wasn't expected until we were told it was unexpected (if that makes any sense to you).

Understood. Just got in from work so now i must go and grab him from the wedding. More runes to buy hehe
