The 3 Games - Guild Wars Forums

I was just wondering, as a noob, how the 3 games work together.

For instance, if you bought all of the games, and built a character up in the Nightfall campaign, for instance, could you then use this same character in prophicies, and or use nightfall professions in prophicies campaign, and or play (pvp/gvg) with people who only have prophicies.

thank you ver much

I have all 3 games and I can visit each of the continents. What you need to do is link all the games you only have one chance of doing this which is at the beginning if im not mistaken.

Install Prophecies, then add the Faction link the faction key to prophecies and the same with Nightfall. By linking all the accounts you will be able to travel within the continents. You get 4 slots with prophecies, 2 with factions and 2 more with Nightfall since the later 2 games each have 2 new professions. Hope this is helpful.

one more thing, do you have to install them in that order, as in factions then nightfall or does it not matter

No, it doesn't matter which order you add the keys to your account. Just DO NOT make seperate accounts! Once you create your initial account, there's a prompt for adding access keys to your existing account on the log-in screen.

There is only one game client regardless of which chapter(s) people own so you can team up with characters of other chapters without any problem even if you or they don't own the same content and thus have access to those professions. So you can team up with assassins and ritualists even though you cannot play one yourself.

Likewise you can use weapons and off-hands from any chapter so you can safely trade for them, just make sure they are not customized when you are buying them.

Also, newer profession skills do not work backwards. Skills for all 6 core professions are avaiable in all 3 games, but, in order of release, you will only find Assassin and Ritualist skills in Factions and Nightfall, and Dervish and Paragon skills only in Nightfall. If you take any of the 4 non-core professions back to Tyria (Prophecies) You will not be able to learn your profession specific skills there, nor will their be profession specific elites. As an Assassin or Ritualist, you will not find skills for those two professions in Prophecies. Likewise, you will not find Skills for Dervishes or Paragons in both Prophecies and Factions. However, Any core professions, be them primary or secondary, can recieve skills from older campaigns. However, some skills are only avaiable in certain continents. So for example: An Elementalist created in, say, Tyria, will have access to all skills in Tyria, But, will not be able to buy or capture skills in Factions or Nightfall until they travel to said continents.
