Guess I can’t level up my lvl 38 necromancer until september.. Because I won’t level up another character anytime soon.
I keep reading this part does this mean traits will be unlocked when you level now or do we still have to do the chores.
Regarding unlocking traits, the New Player Experience will effectively be exactly the same, except in the way it’s presented to players.
ArenaNet, can you please answer this:
I currently have some alts which are not level 80. Will these changes affect my alts too, or do I need to remake them to get the changes (just like the Trait change)? I’d rather have my alts be grandfathered into these changes than having to remake them.
Yes these changes will be effective for all existing characters.
Do the new changes mean I can’t do WvW until I level to 18? What’s with all these restrictions?
That’s not exactly what’s happening. If you have a brand new account, you will only be able to use the PvP and WvW icons after your first character has unlocked them for your account. After that, it’ll pretty much be the same!
Again, this change will be mostly relevant to new players who will not have to think about that part of the game until they’ve been able to learn the basics. If they’re specifically interested in those part of the game, they can still travel to the relevant portal and jump into the fray!
