I have had GW for quite awhile, but havn't played very often due to the fact that I have another MMO (City of heroes/villains) that i usually play. But whenever i feel the need for some Ph47 l3w7 i log into GW and hunt for black dye lol. well anyway, I want to know if I should get factions now, or wait and finish the story for regular GW, or will that take a looong time? if i get Factions can i play an assasin on regular gw if i have both? and do assasins actually rely on stealth? do I get more character slots if i buy factions, can i use the same storage account?

alot of questions I know, but as i said, I am a newb, and have little to no idea of what im talking about. Ty

Here's what I can tell you:

Get Factions if you want some more PvE content besides what's in the original
All assassins have to start in the Factions starter area, but you can bring Factions characters to Lion's Arch after a short bit of the game
The closest thing assassins have to stealth is teleportation
You get two extra character slots
Still the same storage account
