Hear about the new community managers, the responsibilities of gamers, and all about part-three, the conclusion, of Winds of Change. Join us during this episode for added baby screaming ambients, Celeste rambling, and a good dose of altholism from Chris. What we did this week Chris: Finished Factions - Thanks for the help Celeste! Started Winds of Change I think I need to start working on Epic Skills, as I’m finding some of this content just too hard without it.

First , is it true you can carry your character's name from Guild Wars to Guild Wars 2 . And is it any character from your account or do they need to have certain titles.  Secondly , in Guild Wars 2 . Do the races have the same skills , if they are the same profession .  Like a Char Ele and an Asuran Ele . Enjoying the show , keep them coming. Dave the Knife ( in game name ) http://www.guildwars2guru.com/forum/showpost.php?p=258530&postcount=7 Yes they carry over through your hall of monuments (this will happen when account linking is enabled), but give a look at this particular post about how your name could be adapted for the five races of Tyria.  Let me expand a bit on the Ten-slot skill bar. The first 5 are determined by your weapon and profession. Then comes the your dedicated healing skill, based on profession. 7-9 are utility and can be based on profession or race. the 10th slot is your elite and can also be based on profession or race. these skills are chosen through a pop up menu when you are allotting them. What sort of release schedule can we expect for expansions? Based on Guild Wars we should be seeing new expansions at least yearly with new content added more regularly. I think it will be closer to every 4 months or so that we’ll be getting new dungeons (etc) for microtransactions or even for free. What does “endgame” look like for Guild Wars 2? Okay, you’re seriously trying to stump me. The best I can say is that they’re won’t be endless raiding. We don’t really know!   Tales of Tyria http://www.guildmag.com/gamer-safety-week-keeping-your-account-secure (reference) Instead of offering up a community site this week, we’d like to remind you to keep your passwords secret, safe and to change them often in order to keep your account secure.

If you’ve got a burning question for our Ask an Asuran segment, please let us know!   Email Hi, this is Chris just saying thanks for the response.  I was definitely not expecting to hear it (in a literal sense).  Just wanted to apologize if I came off as condescending at all; it was not intended to be so in the slightest.(my wording choice was poor at best)  There are so many new players lately; more than ever from what I can tell.  Glad to see more people enjoying a great game!  Onto subject, I definitely recommend the Necromancer class for Chris.  It was my first, 6 years ago,
