It ain’t easy being green, and it’s even harder being an annoying little know-it-all, which probably explains why we’ve had to wait until the third and final beta weekend for Guild Wars 2 to get our hands on levels 1-20 for the game’s most exotic races.
Along with the snacks and veggies, the event will also feature the two races’ cities of Rata Sum and Grove, as well as a new Guild-Conquest PvP map, finally giving those titular organisations some time to shine.
Not in the Guild Wars 2 beta yet? I’ll see what I can do.
Play Asura and Sylvari in the July 20-22 Beta Weekend Event! [ArenaNet]
Try out Sylvari
Get my Thief to a decent level
Do more Wvw/crafting/splorin' on my 40 Mesmer
Get some final screenshots/video from the beta to remember it by.
It's gonna be a busy weekend!
Yeah if Curse can get 25,000 keys for US residents only surely Kotaku AU can get a few hundred or even 1,000 keys just for Aus residents..
I hate the Asura... Why does every MMO need some tiny little brat creature that's all about technology?
I want to see a Charr curb stomp one into pulp!
The Asura are all about combining magic and technology.
The other races, especially the Charr, are just as into tech, though usually more mechanically-orientated than magical. Guns, steam engines, cannons, tanks, etc.
I want to make an Asura tank.... just because.
Dat Teemo. Proving every midget has the right to be a tank!
I want to play the beta so I can find out if I want to purchase the game. But you can only get into the beta if you have already pre-purchased the game... really, a trial of some kind would be nice. A few hours even!
Any idea what time we can actually connect to the servers for the beta weekend?
