Dervish in Prophecies - Guild Wars Forums

I was wondering if you could play a Dervish in Prophecies? I know you can't create one pre-searing, but if I take one from Elona and bring it to Ascalon, will I do the same missions that Prophecie people do?

You will start out in Lion's Arch, and are able to participate normally from that point on as if you had reached LA from Ascaolon with a "core" character. So, yes!

You can play, like any other character. Thought you will either need to get a run or fight backwards to get to Old Ascalon and the earlier mission.

Although, if memory serves, you don't get the mission-reward experience for any mission completed in Prophecies that came earlier than Lion's Arch.

You can still do the missions, but you only get the rewards for post Lion's Arch ones.

When i started my Dervish shortly after the release of NF i went to tyria after leaving noob island. There was (and still is to some degree) a massive influx of bad dervishes in NF. Tyria is far easier for a Dervish than Elona imo. There's less enchant removal and using earth prayers skills you should be able to take a massive amount of damage, and give it out aswell like a dervish is known for.

The other thing about the Dervish in Prophecies is their running ability. Get a nice little running build, and you can really explore and open up Tyria quickly! I had fun doing that, and made a little coin running other people as I did it.
