One of the thing I anticpate most about Guild Wars 2- the dungeons. In WoW, other than raids, dungeons are one of the largest timesinks for end-game content, and I believe Guild Wars 2 may well be the same. Looking forward to dungeoneering with y'all!

Thank you Link. Guys, here is official blog post on underwater combat:

For those who don't have the time to fap all over the (edit: GuildWars2Guru) forums like I do (despite spending my entire morning at a 5-hour exam I HAVE A LIFE YEP - which by the way I should be on more now <3<3) here are some cooool vids.

But first: the mesmer has pretty much been confirmed what most people expected.

I can confirm that there are mesmers in Guild Wars 2. Unfortunately they’re not playable because they are dead mesmers in ghost form nailing me with Blackout. Still. Mesmers.

You can see a mesmer boss from the Ghosts of Ascalon dungeon footage, likely what Rubi is referring to.

These are worth watching IMO. Some clipping issues in the third video (like the back of her neck behind her hair) but overall I am very excited and cannot even imagine this game in its final product. Underwater environments in game, let alone deadly underwater creatures, creep the hell out of me... but I feel like going for a swim.

1, 2 and 3 articles by Rubi Bayer. Each of these contain a screenshot gallery or photographs from ArenaNET headquarters for anybody interested.

Here is another favourite recent article of mine with some orgasm-inducing screenshots. Finally, here is some extra footage.

The hype for this game as greatly increased due to this new news, and it's a good thing to read more and more articles that aren't horribly misinformed about Guild Wars 2. I predict a Mesmer official announcement next month, and we probably still have quite a while until we see what the sylvari look like after their re-design.

I love how story oriented the dungeons seems to be. Makes em' feel like less of a grind, in my opinion. <3
