Guild Wars Birthday Celebration Coming Soon

Guild Wars will be turning four years old on April 28th and they are ready to roll out the celebratory gifts and goodies for players. Among other great stuff, players will be able to increase storage size in several different ways. Check out the other changes coming your way below:

Storage Upgrades

After months of hard work, we're proud to offer you these new ways to increase your storage:

* Equipment Packs in assorted sizes, designed solely to hold weapons and armor (gear).
* Every character will get a fifth slot for an Equipment Pack.
* More purchasable Xunlai Storage panes (tabs).
* Each pane is $9.99 USD from the in-game store or the NCsoft Store. You can buy up to four of them for a single account.

Free Storage Pane Giveaway

Lastly, to celebrate our anniversary, we have a limited-time offer where you can get a FREE pane of Xunlai Storage. Our upcoming promotion will be the ONLY way to get this special pane; it is extra, which means you can't buy it later. Keep an eye on the website and we'll explain how you can get this bonus storage.

The Zaishen Menagerie

In a beautiful, lush new explorable area in the Battle Isles, the Zaishen Order runs a tight business breeding and training all the common and prestige pets from around the world for their clientele. There are a few ways you can start your own collection in the Menagerie. Bring any pet with you or your Heroes to the Tamer in the Menagerie Grounds. The Tamer will check your pet's evolution and unlock that tier and any lower tiers. Adding charmed pets to the Menagerie is absolutely free. You can also use Balthazar Faction or pay with Zaishen Coins and gold to have the Zaishen Order unlock and train evolutions of pets for you. This way, you've got several choices for unlocking all your pets.

Pet Unlock Pack

If you're looking for yet another possibility, you may purchase the new Pet Unlock Pack for $9.99 USD from the in-game store or the NCsoft Store, which will unlock all the common pets in the Menagerie.

Zaishen Challenge Quests

Many are familiar with the Zaishen Challenge in the Battle Isles, and soon the Zaishen will extend their Challenge in the form of new quests. There will be three different types of Zaishen Challenge Quests: Mission, Bounty, and PvP.

* Mission quests send you to replay storyline missions from each campaign.
* Bounty quests dispatch you to kill boss monsters in dungeons, veteran missions, and explorable areas.
* PvP quests challenge you to win battles in various PvP types.

Each day, a new quest of each type is available in the Great Temple of Balthazar. You can complete these Zaishen Challenge Quests any time you wish; however, you can only have three in your quest log at once. The most comprehensive strategy is to finish challenge quests the day you get them, so you free up space in your quest log for the next day's batch. Check back daily to take on the new Zaishen Challenge Quest experience, whether in relaxed solo runs or paired up with a friend or larger group for co-op play.

It's hard to believe that GW is four years old already. It's aged very well!

Now that's a good idea for birthday celebration!
I shall now start demanding gifts whenever I go to someones birthday-parties =P

And I remember back i time. A time where I had the choice of playing either World of Warcraft, or Guild Wars. And at that time, all I knew about Guild Wars, that made me choose WoW was this: You didn't have to pay monthly. Although to icrease level (Or something like that), you had to buy expansion packs. And so I went with WoW ..
