Skills in Factions/Prophecies - Guild Wars Forums

Hi, I own both campaigns, and I've just taken a character through factions. There are still a lot of skills he doesn't have. If I do the Prophecies campaign with him, will he be given more, or do I have to buy them now? I've bought some, but it's getting expensive

Many skills are only available in Prophecies, yes. Taking him through that campaign will net you the ones you're missing, if you're a completionist (like me).

However, Prophecies has a number of quests that provide set skills as their reward, so you don't have to purchase each and every one of them.

Is there anyway to take my factions character from the beginning of post-searing or do I need to explorer to that area since we start at Lion's Arch?

as far as i know you cant go that far back. im not sure exactly how far you can go. but ive heard you cant get past beacons

You can easily get past beacons, but at the moment, missions prior to lions arch are disabled for factions characters. They are working on changing this however, so expect to see an update sometime in the future that addresses this.

My Factions monk is in Ascalon City awaiting the day when he'll be allowed to do all 25 missions in C1, so in fact YES, you can go all the way back. However no quests or missions are available basically pre-LA. Even some around LA arent available, such as the bringing the heroes to ascalon settlement (which if you think about it really doesnt fit with a factions character...) but the guy with the translating drawings and the fiends you can do (dark pact).

One of the first quests you find with your fresh-faced Canthan when you arrive in Lion's Arch is...

...Villainy of Galrath
