Ideas for the next "Expansion"

Cantha Region

9 new specializations inspired in japanese culture (Samurai, Ninja...)

at least 2 new races (Tengu and Dwarves/Forgotten/Centaurs/Naga) without personal history, but with all old armors skins and all the wepons animations, making some animations exclusive as you already do.

I like all of these ideas

New races are unlikely, especially 2 at the same time. Would already be a big surprise if we get a single new race.But I would love to go to Cantha finally and have some Elite Specs inspired by Asian culture.

Give me an Engineer Elite Spec based on Acids, please.

Why not?

Why not create a new Expansion being an Expansion with Leveling Maps. Instead of Anet create 4 to 6 new maps, to be played by 80 level characters, why not create 6 new maps (1-15, 15-25, 25-45, 45-60, 60-70, and 70-80), 3 new CORE (only) classes (1 Light, 1 Medium, 1 Heavy), 2 or 3 new races (Tengu, Rapier... whatever), a new personal history (level 1 to 80) (No Zhaitan, Mordrem. or Krakat. dragon)... as if a brand new game. The players could only use the other/older characters in those new scenarios after they, with a new char, finished the new Personal Story.

To big? is not great idea? U prefer 5 new 80-Level Maps + new masteries blahblahblah?

Cantha is not just influenced by Japanese though, It got a lot of other Oriental culture influences.

I would love go visit a completely new area not related to gw1 for the expansion.

You forgot:

• Each map of the region is locked behind a separate time gate thus increasing the life time of the content several fold.
