GW:EN heroes

Are we going to get the new heroes in the first part of the game?I am curious because I like useing heroes and it is a big part of the game for me.I didnt find it on search.I might not of frame it right.Still I was wondering if someone had seen any info on it.

i bet it will be like nf. Get them as you go. No one knows for sure till the preview/release day.

The biggest problem is you can only use 3 heroes at a time. We already have like 10-15(?) heroes. Getting 10 more is gonna be hard to organize or keep track of.

Anet will no doubt be throwing heros at us everywere we go the moment we step into EotN. So you have nothing to worry about

Party Search is ftw in terms of Hero selection. Of course spreading weapons across 25 heros is going to be troublesome in some cases.

Unless, of course, the weapons come with the Heros (like in Nightfall, but maxed).

yes you get heroes as you go. dwarf is first oen you get i believe, right as you enter the GWEN area.

I hope this time the Heroes come in like the reverse order of Nightfall. The ones that were easy to get in Nightfall can leave them till late at GWEN, and the ones that were late to get in Nightfall should be obtainable in GWEN early on...

ie. please let's start with Ritualist first, then Paragon, then Mesmer, ... in this order

Weapons I already gave up... just used the /bonus ones instead. I've just created over 60~70 of those brand new "Hourglass Staff"s to outfit all those Dunkuroes, Tahlkoras, Zheds, and the rest of caster heroes. With this /bonus after all this time, I must have created over a thousand blades

so the new heroes are basically skins for us..... wow gw is all about looks... y cant they add some more slots for heroes

What I hate is when there is a hero you hate or never use. Then a few regions later, they are REQUIRED for a primary quest or mission, and they're still level 10.

Me + Melonni = DOES NOT COMPUTE

I essentially use these heroes actively:
-Koss
-Dunkoro (bit less than usual nowadays)
-Tahlkora
-Margrid
-Sousuke

And in truth only Koss and Tahlkora have maximum weapons. Dunky-poo is currently weaponless, Margrid and Sousuke have semi-max weapons.

Not to mention I only got around to giving Tahlkora runes a few days ago.

Less heroes = easier to manage.

I try my best to make sure each of my character has ONE a fully kitted hero. It costs way too much to outfit them all.

I must agree that using the /bonus weapons for the heroes has been the best thing for me. I hate trying to find just the right weapon for the build you are looking to use for on them; it's just easier to give them the bonus and be done with it. Not to mention the runes and everything else! Personally I only use a rune on a hero if I find it.

Back on topic though, Jora is said to be unlocked fairly early as she is the "box art" that Anet has been pushing.

u do know u can rip runes off heroes take away their weapons and give them to ANOTHER hero. its not like you need to outfit all of them at any one time

Myself I'd like the ability to be able to use 7 heros and myself instead of the current 3 we are allowed to use. Honestly sometimes they have more brains then those one meets in a PUG.

I believe that there are only 6 (potential) heroes that have been shown.

Warrior - Jora
Ranger - Pyre Fierceshot
Monk - Ogden Stonehealer
Elementalist - Vekk
Mesmer - Gwen(?)
Necromancer - Livia(?)

The only heroes I really care about are my Necromancer's. He is my main character, and so his heroes get the best.

My Necromancer's Tahlkora has a rather nice set (for a hero) Totem Axe + Byzzr's Benediction. The Totem Axe I actually take from her for 55 farming, and the Byzzr's Benediction is a weapon that I have far too many of.

Zhed has a nice 40% HCT 40% HSR wand a focus set which only cost me 10k hehe

Still it would be nice to be allowed more heroes at once, it might take longer to set up but at least you know what they're doing

Therefore all of the heroes will most likely already be level 20 and come equipped with maxed weapons, though not necessarily the best stats. Theoretically you'd never have to use a given hero other than for specific quests/missions that require them since you wouldn't have to level them up.
