Skip Nightfall?? - Guild Wars Forums

Nyte · Aug 12, 2007, 08:04 PM // 20:04

I bought the origanal Guild Wars and then Guild Wars : Factions. I then stop playing for a while due to school and sports. Now I want to come back and play so do I need to buy Nightfall or can I just wait for Eye of the North to come out or will I miss something to will I not get something that would be in Nightfall??

Or will everything that is on NIghtfall be in Eye in teh North aswell??

Thank you for your time!

Well, you'll miss getting Heroes, your very own customizeable henchmen, if you skip NF. As well as a pretty decent PvE game. And some cool armor sets. And some NF-only weapons. And the 2 new professions. Other than that, you won't miss much.

Even if you're not that into the storyline, you'll be missing out on some great Nightall skills. Even more important than that, you'll be missing out on heroes. Although you'll be getting heroes in EotN, having heroes from Nightfall seems like it'll unlock more content in EotN.

That makes me worry heroes in GWEN will be hard to get as unlocking all the heroes in NF is hardly a huge achivement
So i think getting the heroes in NF would be worth it as i don't know how the heroes in GWEN will be unlocked

I really doubt the GWEN heroes will be hard to get, as it seems most will be required for certain sections of the storyline. (And most likely required for certain missions too, as annoying as that is)

If they made the GWEN heroes difficult to get it would hinder the storyline. I'm sure acquiring the heroes in GWEN will be just as easy as acquiring them in Nightfall. Also, considering the GWEN heroes are also there for people who don't have Nightfall, it would seem rather odd that they would be difficult to get.

To the OP: I'd recommend getting Nightfall, you'll have a larger selection of heroes, access to some very nice elite skills, and the storyline is reasonably interesting. I find playing through Nightfall to be bit more enjoyable than the other games.

Thanks guys. So basically if I don't buy NF then I miss a lot of good things. And it is worth the buying it. Thanks guys!

If there is anything you could have skipped (except for some of the skills) is Factions. The Monastery also has pretty much a lock on getting points for certain titles.

Yeah, I wish I skipped factions and got nf instead. I have only really played prophecies and not factions. I really need to get nf when i get more time but gwen out soon.

if you have the time to play nf before gwen is released then go for it imo. more heroes, skills etc.
