If there ever is a Sylvari hero, it will probably come out together with the first screenies of GW2.

As far as a mursaat goes for a hero, what about his spectral agony? They wouldn't allow that on a hero. They'd have to think of some reason why he lost it, as well weren't the mursaat killed by the titans? Unless a small group of them survived.

Maybe a sylvari hero will appear.

i would LOVE a sylvari hero, i'd bring it with me everywhere and hope that it was a rit hero lol though technically Sylvari's don't exist yet because they are born from ventari's tree in arbor bay, but i guess one could bloom early

They may or may not be adding more heroes we'll never know until just before or right when it happens as regina is much more tight lipped about pretty much everything.

Neo Nugget · Sep 06, 2008, 06:40 PM // 18:40

I'm banking on more "level" buddies rather than heroes.

Nightow · Sep 06, 2008, 06:44 PM // 18:44

I could care less what you make it, just make one a hero please.

Vamis Threen · Sep 07, 2008, 03:05 AM // 03:05

Like many people have said, more heroes are pointless unless you can have more than three. (As is obvious from below, I'm thinking PvE)

Any more heroes are likely to make the 2-hero profs up to 3. Will this be any use? Bear in mind you could have 4 of the same profession if your character is one.

Rits: can't have the same spirits in range of each other so pretty useless. Clamour of souls spike? --> dubious you can can keep your group adjacent. Channeling --> weak

Mes: The following elites; visions of regret, tease and ineptitude; are brilliant, so surely you need at least 3 mesmers? Not really. Leave one out and you'll do fine, your two mesmers can easily carry all the really great non-elite skills between them, and Lo Sha (henchie) carries ineptitude anyway in GWEN.

Sin hero: ROFL

Paragon: unless you can have 6 of these shouting "Incoming!" and setting stuff on fire with their funny sticks, one is sufficient. 5-6 yes. 3 No.

As it stands, more heros = (only) diffrent skins. I'd far rather Anet spent their limited GW1 resources on new content. The best thing about MOX is not the new hero itself, but the new quests.

Issac · Sep 07, 2008, 03:09 AM // 03:09

I agree with Nightow, that does look wicked sick. But how would it hold weapons?

MercenaryKnight · Sep 07, 2008, 03:15 AM // 03:15

It would hold weapons the same as mox? Though I guess it would be kind of hard to have a "ranged attack" maybe a mouth attack or something I don't know.

Don't think many people would care even if you gave a hero a staff and it was forced to be melee because of the type.

Nightow · Sep 07, 2008, 03:23 AM // 03:23

Claws = sharp, pointy things... like daggers maybe?

Issac · Sep 07, 2008, 03:24 AM // 03:24

Or poke with the horns lol.

Whirlwind · Sep 07, 2008, 03:40 AM // 03:40

Should be able to have 3 of what3ever type of hero wyou want, what if someone REALLY likes rits...

recon54 · Sep 07, 2008, 05:54 AM // 05:54

wouldnt mind them finish giving 3 heroes of each profession, especially if each one came with the added content of an additional quest line. Would really like to see the addition of Sylvari (Rt), Tengu(A), Margonite(P), and Mursaat(Me) heroes.

Could see the Sylvari quest line being along the lines of one of the 1st sylvari asking for aid to defend Ventari's Tree for the survival of their race. Then the Tengu quest line could be about trying to keep the peaceful relations between the Tengu and the Canthans. Meanwhile the Mursaat quest line could be about 1 rebelious Mursaat trying to break away from his brothren. And... well i cant really think of a quest line for the Margonite cuz i never could get caught up into the NF storyline (at least not nearly as much as i was able to with the Factions and the Prophecies storys).

Anyways, thats just how i would like to see things pan out, tho i doubt thats how it will work out.

MithranArkanere · Sep 07, 2008, 06:45 PM // 18:45

There are some allied species left...
Tengu
Forgotten
Dredge
Renegade Margonite
We are also missing a female human elementalist.

So, the next heroes we should have should be:
An Aerie Tengu Assassin.
A Forgotten One Mesmer.
A Dredge Ritualist.
A Margonite Paragon.
A Female Human Elementalist.

The Sylvari do not exist yet.

JupiterStarWarrior · Sep 07, 2008, 07:12 PM // 19:12

No Margonites. Margonites worship Abbadon. We (as players) defeated Abbadon. Margonites and players have different agendas. Unless someone gives a believable reason why a Margonite would join a player, NO TO MARGONITE HEROES!!! Seriously! Every single Hero that you get have a reason to join the player, even MOX and Pyre Fierceshot.

However, I do see the others (Tengu, Forgotten, and Dredge) joining a human player. Actually, I'd rather see a Forgotten hero than anything else. That would be cool.

But no Margonites (though I'll probably use it if one becomes available).

I guess you forgot about this guy.

http://www.wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Apostate

I would liek to see more of the summoning stones instead however. They are like mini pets that actually do something.

Lishy · Sep 07, 2008, 07:18 PM // 19:18

I think a margonite can work, honestly. What about a rebel margonite who was banished to the Foundry of Failed creations?
Either way, adding more heroes is useless until we can have 7 of em.

Jecht Scye · Sep 07, 2008, 08:12 PM // 20:12

can we have heroes that aren't...oh...I don't know...not human? I like humans in the game more than tengu, centaurs, asuras, dwarves, and tinmen...The rabble just ends up lookings silly to me.

Shriketalon · Sep 07, 2008, 08:49 PM // 20:49

You forgot an allied race.

Joko's Undead.

We need an Awakened Paragon. With a battle quote "BRAINS!"

Not all of them. There where margonites in the group of many races found in the Torment.
And the Apostate is another margonite that no longer follows abbaddon.

Not all margonites are allies, but some are. Just like with the other allied races: Humans, Dwarves, Centaur, Charr, Spirits, Undead (Skeleton, Ghost, Ghoul and Mummy), Elementals, Dragons...
You can find all of them as both allies and enemies.

I didn't mention Undead because I consider Olias as an undead that do not takes double holy damage. He already died once and was brought back from the underworld by Grenth... and look at his face: those eyes are clearly partially decomposed and his nose has african complexion while his skin is pale white!
I also excluded Elementals because they are less 'humanoid', but hey, now that they added a Golem, there's nothing preventing a 'wind' or a drake djinn from becoming an hero.
I excluded dragons because Forgotten ones are draconic enough.
