Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns PC

Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns is the first major expansion to the second installment of the popular MMORPG fantasy game, developed as the result of a cooperation between the NCSoft company and the American ArenaNet Inc. studio, which is responsible for the previous game, as well as its expansions.

Heart of Thorns offers a brand new storyline, which takes place in a previously inaccessible area - the Maguuma jungle. There are also countless new quests expanding the plot of the vanilla version of Guild Wars 2. On the new map, the players will face the evil hordes of Modremoth and also new types of enemies and bosses. There will also be new allies for the player to acquire – the ancient civilizations inhabiting the jungle, which you will discover during your journeys. The might and skill of the new character class – the Revenant, a heavily armored warrior, wielding the power of the Mists – should also prove helpful in your efforts.

The expansion will also bring a number of crucial changes to the character progression and the mechanics of the game. In Heart of Thorns, the player will be able to learn a secondary specialization on every available character class. The changes also effected the, already well-known, Mastery system, which was based on gathering points for completing various quests or challenges, and then using those points to unlock new abilities or items; the system is available to every character which has reached level 80.

Heart of Thorns will also introduce Guild Halls, which will allow the players to construct a headquarters for their guild in the heart of the Maguuma jungle. All members of a guild will be able to contribute towards expanding and upgrading their guild’s hall.

The developers have also prepared a new PvP game mode – Stronghold – in which you will attack the enemy stronghold and defend yours at the same time. The key to victory is the use of supplies, which your team can spend to hire more troops. One of the last noteworthy changes is a brand new Borderland map, unlike the others embedded in a desert, designed for epic World vs. World skirmishes.
