If I buy Nightfall/Factions.. - Guild Wars Forums

drey2k · Jan 30, 2008, 05:19 AM // 05:19

I currently only have Prophecies, and I have a couple of characters.

So if I buy Nightfall/Factions, will I be able to use the characters I currently have on the Nightfall/Factions campaign? How about characters I create on Nightfall, will I be able to use them on Prophecies?

Also, which do you guys recommend, Factions or Nightfall?

thnx.

1) Yes, you can carry characters from one location to another. All you need to do is complete a quest that are not very difficult at all.

2) Yes, again with the carry ability. Same deal as well with needing to do a quest.

3) This is my personal opinion, but Factions comes 2nd for me because of when the games came out and how the storyline plays out.
Prophecies -> Factions -> Nightfall

Yes to both questions.

I would recommend Nightfall because of the fact that you get heroes (which are customizable henchmen whose skills and equipment you can set yourself) and the fact that there is more pve content (but there's some mandatory title grind) as well as more skills that are useful in PvP.

EDIT: Storm beat me to it

Make sure you add the new campaigns cd key to your current account. I've come across a couple of people who made new accounts and got upset when they couldn't cross the characters over. Personally I prefer factions to nightfall gameplay wise but nightfall has the best character designs and storyline imo. You can probably get both for pretty cheap now seeing as nightfall is over a year old.

Title grind is never mandatory.

Not much, but still a grind. It's not needed for foreign characters though
