Coming back to GW: Factions or EotN ? - Guild Wars Forums

I installed GW on my new laptop today. Haven't played it for about a year. I'm probably going to buy one new chapter. I already have Prophecies (Collector's Edition

) and Nightfall. I think I play a little more PvE than PvP. So should I buy Factions or EotN ? It looks like that the price for them is pretty much the same.

That's a tough choice.

Factions is bigger and have two new professions and more generally useful skills, while EotN has - to me - more enjoyable PvE and the new PvE skills (which I despise, as they are so ridiculously overpowered).

I like EotN, and Factions is my least favorite chapter of them all, but given that choice I'd probably get Factions simply because EotN is smaller.

Yeah tough choice...

Factions would give you 2 new proffesions and 4 times more skills than EotN, however it wont give you much in terms of PvE enjoyment, most of the current PvE action is in EotN dungeons.

If you play "a little" more PvE than PvP, i guess that "a little" is how much EotN should lead in this decision.

So sorry Factions, as much as i love you, i have to say EotN is a better choice.

oh ouch that would be a tough decision.

but my choice would be factions...2 new classes, lots of new armors, and imho more replayability (thats just me---I am getting tired of eye already, but have gotten most of my characters thru factions and will be getting the last group thru this week....)...I guess I just like the story line better for factions than the slapped together feel of the storyline in eye.
