TheQuickFox.3826 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 At least GW2 is so well designed that all our current gear, builds and masteries stay relevant. 1 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheQuickFox.3826 Posted February 28, 2022 Author Share Posted February 28, 2022 I'm looking forward to this very much. I don't expect EoD to be the best expansion possible but the fact we're getting one is a great thing. I've been using the content drought in the last few months to get my second account up-to-speed with things like world completion legendary gear and achievements and was able to get almost everything done in time for the launch. I'm looking forward to exploring the new continent, new dynamic events and the story and I'm sure there will be many new achievements to go for after that. There will probably some bugs and issues in the first week as with the previous expansions, but I'm sure ANet will have their people on stand-by to quickly address issues as they arrive. Just manage your expectations a bit in the first week. With EoD I'm sure GW2 will get some much-needed media attention outside of the community which will help the player base and the game in the long run. I'm sure EoD will be a good platform to expand on with the next Living World releases that will require it. Just as LW S3 expanded on HoT and LW S4 expanded on PoF. With DX11 and WvW alliances coming. I see a great future for the game now. And this was quite needed after the uncertain times with the lay-offs (2018) and the disappointing end of the Icebrood Saga. I'm sure I'll call GW2 my home for a long time. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS no I'm not pulling an all nighter:-p 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tukaram.8256 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 It is already late here ha ha 😎 I am GMT+8, so it is 1:30 PM already... I do not know what time zone ANet uses (GMT-7?), but I expect it around dinner time here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avion Blade.4869 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Just know that for all of us, March 1st you have EoD already if you pre-purchased it! Depending on your time-zone EoD may come earlier or later than expected, but on March 1st you can enjoy it together finally 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyKitty.6120 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 (edited) So, expansion will arrive on 28th for peoples at UTC+6 and westwards. For people at +7 and eastwards, it'll be between midnight and early morning March 1st. 19.00 for east europeans. (time for all-nighter...)

Strixxe.2019 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Meh... Everyone so hyped up, it cute. Then anet opens the floodgate and all hell of the problems will appear. NO1 rule of all mmos - never play on the patch day. In this case - patch week. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there on release for HoT as well as PoF, it was a mess but it was hilarious, because I went there with the right mindset. EoD will be there weeks and months and years to come, this day doesn't matter, I don't need to clear it in one go, so might as well have some fun with it. 🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this is true with all new software. You probably still can play existing content and WvW without major issues this week and then move to the expansion next week if you want the first issues to be ironed out.
