digitalruse · Jul 12, 2008, 06:32 AM // 06:32

What city is generally considered to be the "capitol" of EotN?

Proph = LA
Factions = KC
Nightfall = Kama
EotN = ???

Thanks in advance

Eye of the North.

I figured... it is just never very busy there. Well compared to the other capitol cities. More specifically when it comes to the trade channel.

less people bought EOTN, and because EotN isn't on a separate map, it's faster to go to LA.

Also it doesn't show up as a 'capitol city' as they changed the icon size to have it smaller than gunnar's hold. Where Icons are concerned. Gunnar's is the capitol.

If you're looking to trade, Kamadan American district 1 is the new LA. That's the place to go if you want to buy/sell anything.

You're all wrong, those that you mentioned are port cities not capital cities. Capital Cities are like this

Prophecies:
Drascir (the main capital of ascalon, fell to the charr)
Rin (the official capital after drascir fell, now it fell to the charr)
Ascalon (The unofficial capital city)
Lion's Arch (The Capital City of Kryta and the port city of prophecies)
Henge of Denravi (The capital of the Shining Blades in the Maguuma Jungle)
Thunderhead Keep (The capital city of the Deldrimor Dwarves)
Arah (The sunken capital of the sunken kingdom of Orr)

Factions:
Kaineng City (Yes that's it, the whole damn thing is the capital of the Empire of the Dragon)
House Zu Heltzer (The main house of the Kurzicks)
Cavalon (Luxon's main settlement)

Nightfall:
Kamadan, Jewel of Istan (The capital of Istan after the fall of Fahranur)
Fortress of Jahai (The capital of Kourna, unaccessible)
The Kodash Bazaar (The main trade center of vabbi, not sure if it's the capital city though)

EotN:
Gunnar's Hold (The main settlement of the Norn)
Rata Sum (The main capital of the Asura)

An in respect to the OP, if you mean same sort of city as LA/Kamadan/Kaineng, then Boreal would be closest :P Seeing as that's the only town you can map to from any other campaign.

eotn expansion has something at every major city.... depends what you are shopping for....

eotn, doomlore, rata sum, gunnars, and central transfer...

crazybanshee · Jul 13, 2008, 04:37 PM // 16:37

There really isn't a trading capital in eotn, most people do la or kamadan.

Elder III · Jul 13, 2008, 08:28 PM // 20:28

I would say Eye of the North "should" be the capital (aka most important) in EoTN - simply due to the Hall of Monuments being there. It is where you have to go to start the main storyline and several times afterwards to complete it.

Eye of the North should be the capitol city here imo. Just as it was in the preview weekend.
