I also think that the elite mission is simply not yet included. Various things point into that direction. The most important one is the "bug" in the sunspear title track. I wouldn't be surprised if this were the entrance condition and the "bug" is in place so we can't reach it yet.

It wouldn't take me by surprise to see the elite mission getting included in 2-3 months from now. Sort of like Sorrows Furnace. This way they can also say they provided content inbetween chapters, even though it should have been in the game to start with (like Sorrows Furnace). Anyways, we don't know for sure, i'm just being superstitious because they ignore the Sunspear Title Bug.

Whats the sunspear title bug? There is obviously a progression after lvl 8?

The manual also says under mission types, My paraphrase..

"Factions introduced two new types of missions, elite and challenge. You'll find both in NF. Elite missions are dungeons where up to 12 players fight through a series of rooms for rewards at the end" (read greens).

This *has* to be related to the protector title., If you had to prove your worth to the Luxon/kurzicks by FF'ig then proving your worth to the Elonians would fit in..

Thing is, if it is protector related gettting a team of 12 is going to take a while... Lol

I'm only missing the last 2 mission masters and i know a few people posted here that they have protector already, so it may not. You really only need 3 people for a group of 12

I'll have to disagree, as I remember ANET wanted to make Urgoz and The Deep more accessible permenantly, but never got round to it. Why make another elite mission as thinned to the community as Factions Elite missions? Of course protector titles are easier to get than holding a town but when taking Taxi's into consideration its roughly the same.

Ive also noticed how alot of the time ANET want feedback on highend areas they've implemented, but as of yet have hardly even mentioned Nightfalls Elite area which leads me to believe it isnt open as of yet.

Whats with the statue in chantry then? I've seen people kneel and talk to the ghost, then dissapear more then once, were those dev's or beta's testing it out?

Can you get on the other side after beating the game?

Which also makes me think about ascention, I mean there's no real mention of it. I can assume once you reach chantry your ascended, but i have no way to confirm this one either at the moment.

That's the Elonian entrance to UW / FoW.

Amity and Truth · Oct 31, 2006, 07:01 PM // 19:01

Aye.
There is something after it which directly belongs though hopefully no one will say WHAT it is because it is a huge story line spoiler.

/edit:
At the statues of Grenth and Balthazar. Yes.
But there is a gate leading to a closed part of the map.

Once beating the game you can get to the otherside and acts like The Melandru, Lyssa,Dwayna statues (the ones you cant pay 1plat to enter)

Call me cynical but we've been promised such things before, usually in the face of a lot of (and to calm down) player critism. I would not put it past them to make it exclusive but with hard work available to all. Rememer this chapter needs to last 6 months. Factions was tired after 2-3..

I managed to get there, and its the statue of the new god (XXXXX) , you can access it once you reached rank 1 lightbringer ( I have rank 2 now, and I have access to 2 special skills to kill demons ), if you kneel infront of the statue XXXXX's spirit pops up, but XXXXX say nothing.... , so maybe is the entrance to teh elite mission, but is not active yet.

If it really depends on the master rewards I wonder how you an test that because currently the Mission "Dogahn Passage" is bugged, or has anyone completed the bonus?

What would the elite mission contain because the last missions solve most of the GW problems? :/

Swinging Fists · Oct 31, 2006, 10:21 PM // 22:21

The elite mission(s) is (/are) not meant to be part of the storyline.

boxterduke · Nov 01, 2006, 12:05 AM // 00:05

As other said I also believe that the elite mission is part of the new statue in the Chantry of secrets
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10070042

I think that Anet still have not added the area yet.

Sorry to tell you that the elite mission is very much in the game, as i just emailed and got reply that it very much in the game and working, the problem is you all are looking at the wrong place. If it not by the god thing then it not there so try other places.

Bokocasso · Nov 01, 2006, 01:08 AM // 01:08

It should be accessible for all players, therefore completing the master quests is shount not be relevant to this. And I agree that it's either not included or not yet found. But it shouldn't be so hard to get in...

betterjonjon · Nov 01, 2006, 01:59 AM // 01:59

well if it is in the game its either hidden REALLY well or you have to do something to get it opened up(other then beat the game) becuz i have looked all over the place currently at 70% of elona unlocked so...

Assassin promise was in the game too according to their tech support... wasn't it added later
