So to be clear, you talking about the elite spec weapons becoming core weapons, or are you talking about the brand new core weapons that come later? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elzerro.6710 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Both but, if i had to choose, the new upcoming weapons. I played with the weapons mixing beta, rarely felt like I could both use a combo and have fun (in wvw specifically) at the same time personally. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duglaive.5236 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Seeing as I haven't pre-ordered, and will certainly be waiting to see how it all pans out before I even consider purchasing SotO, well ... I guess nothing as yet 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides the story and maps, I am very much looking forward to the heavy Obsidian Armor set and the Legendary Relic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tachenon.5270 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 I'm still in wait and see mode, but the thing that most interests me so far is the weapons proliferation. Especially the new core weapons. IMO a step in the right direction that's long overdue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I dont you cant really call them core weapons. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeraldBC.4927 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Zojja being forced to show some introspection on her behavior prior to the mordrem pod. But that's only if Arenanet can overcome their paralyzing fear of portraying a female character as anything other than the dreaded M-S word. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashen.2907 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 I have not preordered (for the first time since I started playing GW1 in 2005) and am currently not intending to buy SotO. The three things that had me considering buying were the wizard's tower and the medium and heavy obsidian armor. The announcement that ANet now considers removing functionality from existing legendary gear in order to sell it back to players has left me disinclined to pursue the obby armor. The tower alone is insufficient to entice me to buy the expac. 2 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ugrakarma.9416 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Legenday armor, but i hope inst freak plastic like looks like pvp armor or decade armor..... it should have Triumphant wvw armor as starting point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the biggest selling point for me (still didn't prepurchase), but for now I think the actual biggest soto bait selling point is making certain rewards easier to get. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowCatz.8437 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 The most important reason for getting SOTO have been Shared Inventory slot for my second account (bought when PoF where on sale which included already HoT), which can not get the last one (from HoT) as it is a maxed already with 27 Shared Inventory slots to get 28. Did pre-purchase even that I was on the fence on not doing that. From what I have seen on trailers it looks too much the same as Bloodstone Fen where one have to use Updraft and Ley-Line to get around (before we got mounts) and Living World season that came with HoT (with Gliders as main focus). Most of upgrades for flying mounts are after all just an extension of Gliding where Updraft and Ley-line where main part of expansion before we had mounts. At least I can decide if SoTO would be worth on my oldest account later from playing on that account which have SoTO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astralporing.1957 Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 The biggest selling feature? It will exist. The specific features aren't so good to significantly increase its value at all - and some are actually a net negative. 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vandrefalk.6823 Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 For completeness of the game, for the amount of hours in GW2 I have invested in the game, it makes no sense not to own the complete game. But I look forward to the new zones and what the new story will be. I'm also curious about the new mechanics; new weapon training masteries, new weapons and the relics and hopefully Anet have some good planned for them to make this split. I hope the Rift hunting is something fun too, for Cameron to write it was one of the coolest features he'd worked on; well, I hope there's more complexity to them than we saw in that teaser. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazrul.3086 Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 I love all the stuff we've been shown so far, but for me the biggest selling point are the new masteries. I love collecting masteries and the cool QoL they bring. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
