IGN's Sorrow's Furnce inside look!

Looks like IGN wanted to get on the Update band wagon tonight like everyone else, but who can blame them! Gratz to IGN for the look inside the Furnace

I was kinda hoping the new bosses would bring new skills, but I guess not =/

Still looks promising for the PvErs though.

Audhumla · Sep 07, 2005, 03:18 AM // 03:18

Christ, another follow the suicidal NPC quest? Sweet.

Kaospryx · Sep 07, 2005, 03:19 AM // 03:19

Yeah, that's what I would've guessed. The six named bosses with a new elite skill each. Oh well, this might look fun, although I bet PuGs here will be a big pain, given that the average PuG can barely handle missions in ascension. Can't wait to give this a try.

Wow, I've pretty much signed off of PvE, but this looks amazing. Definitely looking forward to it.

Wa$d · Sep 07, 2005, 03:51 AM // 03:51

it seems to me alot of people have ether left guild wars or went to PvP

Once shackled, players will have the run of the Furnace and be able to collect all kinds of information. In fact, because of the shackles, players will have the opportunity to talk to enemies for the first time and interact with them, even going so far as to accept quests from them. Eventually, plot twists and turns will change the landscape of the fiction and place heroes on the path to victory over the Stone Summit dwarves, but not without a serious fight.

woah...too cool

Finally, no more chest farmers. I applaud you ArenaNet. Wasn't the key idea mentioned on here first? I know for a fact that someone suggested it a while ago...is that where Anet got the inspiration from?

Anyway, IGN have made the update sound really exciting...much better info than the usual "you will like it". (no offense Gaile

)

Sounds like one hell of a nasty place to venture. I have my protection monk on standby!!

I bet FoW will look like a picnic compared to this baby.

[Looks at clock]

So, the keys are key to the replayability then. Hunt often in sorrows furnace...get more keys and reap more rewards. This sounds like a good idea.
Lets hope that Anet have made the chest items "MAX with best mods" and not some crummy rare 14-21, +15>50, -5 energy, fellblade.

That one point damage make the difference to almost everyone.

All us farmers have to do is endure the dreaded PUG again.
I can see the nearest town to the furnace turning into a badass noobtrap...far worse than the desert.

[Looks at clock again...damnit, only 30 seconds elapsed]

I wonder what tweaks will appear in the rest of Tyria.
I've been up all night, it's 6:15 AM and now i'm all hyped up again! Coffee or bed, coffee or bed? Hmmm....

Lord Bentam · Sep 07, 2005, 05:37 AM // 05:37

1:30 Hours Until MIDNIGHT! OH NOES!!!11

*crys*

Coooffeeee you must not give up my friend! We must outwait Anet .. I've gone crazy -.-'

Shadowdaemon · Sep 07, 2005, 05:55 AM // 05:55

now the waiting begins again, like waiting for the game to start up, then waiting again when it crashed(i believe that was when the forums here had the most people on ever, i was here, complaining about the timezones and not knowing when it would be fixed

)

In the evening? Whew, I won't have to skip classes.

Oops, didn't realize the thing was 3 pages long. This sounds intense (although I'm not entirely thrilled about the don't let the NPC die thing). 30-40 quests? Did I read that right? Augh, it didn't reveal the exact location although there has been speculation naturally about where it may be.

The key thing sounds like a great idea. The fact that each person (as long as they have a key) gets something from the chest is just superb.
