Level calibration | Hero development Guild Wars 2 Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
The last one, but very interesting mechanism related to the hero's level and its calibration. In the Guild Wars 2 the stronger heroes are usually weakened in the PvE locations, what creates new challenges for them and makes killing bosses solo unavailable. Of course, bonus attack and armor from equipment are included, so such a character is powerful, but not invulnerable. This mechanism let you enjoy even the beginning locations after reaching the 80th level.
In case of PvP and WvW your hero is automatically raised to the 80th level. It equals chances in fight between players and creates place for tournaments (PvP) or matched encounters for locations on the map (WvW).
