NCsoft
Announces Guild Wars Holiday Event

Guild Wars Holiday event includes 5 free hours
of Eye of the North and Triple XP

Starting today at noon, and lasting for 10 days,
Guild Wars players can try out Guild Wars: Eye of the North for free for five
hours. Also, the level requirement to play Eye of the North has been lowered
from 20 to 10 to make it easier for players to access the exciting content in
Guild Wars first true expansion. To help players be competitive in the level-20
plus world of Eye of the North, players at levels 10-19 will be buffed up to in
order to go toe-to-toe with the new content.

Additionally, to help celebrate the holidays,
players in Eye of the North will receive:

  • Triple experience from all primary storyline
    quests in Eye of the North.
  • Double the chance to receive rare items from
    chests, and triple the drop rate of Lockpicks in Eye of the North.
  • Double gold and experience rewards for
    vanquishing Eye of the North explorable areas while playing in Hard Mode.

In addition, all weekend long, three special
items will be added that can drop from all creatures in Eye of the North:
Sparklers, Hunter’s Ale, and Honeycombs.
