How to Play

When you log in on October 26, you’ll find three dedicated elite specialization beta character slots on your character select screen. Use these to create fully equipped level 80 beta characters and take each of the new elite specializations for a spin.

Please note these limitations on beta event characters:

• Beta characters are temporary. After the event ends, they will disappear as mysteriously as they appeared.
• Your gameplay progress will not be saved. Your beta character is temporary and when they vanish back into the Mists, all the information recorded on your account while playing them will disappear as well. Your permanent Guild Wars 2 characters will still earn progress normally as you play them.
• You can play in existing content. You’re free to experience Tyria through the eyes and weapons of the new elite specializations in current open world content, instanced content, Player vs. Player, and World vs. World. Other Guild Wars 2: End of Dragons content won’t be available for play during the beta events.
