Xaretic.2318 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 If I buy the boost can I start playing with my friends in path of fire right away. The reason I ask is someone in game said No, you must do all of heart of thorns storyline first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoseofGilead.8907 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 You don't have to do or even own Heart of Thorns to start Path of Fire. So, you can start playing Path of Fire as soon as you have a level 80 character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok good, but I take it I won't get the character specialization like reaper for necro without completing HoT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoT specializations (such as Reaper) require HoT. You'll be able to use the PoF specializations once you unlock them, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason I ask is someone in game said No, you must do all of heart of thorns storyline first. You shouldn't have to buy the boost. I believe one is included with Path of Fire. With that said -- you're going to be absolutely awful and your friends are going to hate you for it. Leveling your class and learning to play it is the best way to deal with expansion content since it's considerably more difficult than core content.

Klipso.8653 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 yup, as everyone above said, you don't need to play HoT in order to play PoF. But you DO need to be level 80 before you can start either one. HoT gives you Gliding and: Specializations: Reaper for necromancers, Chronomancer for mesmers, Tempest for elementalists, Dragonhunter for guardians, Berserker for warriors, Herald for revenants, Daredevil for thieves, Druid for rangers, and Scrapper for engineers PoF gives you Mounts and: Specializations: Scourge for necromancers, Mirage for mesmers, Weaver for elementalists, Firebrand for guardians, Spellbreaker for warriors, Renegade for revenants, Deadeye for thieves, Soulbeast for rangers, and Holosmith for engineers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leveling your class and learning to play it is the best way to deal with expansion content since it's considerably more difficult than core content. If the OPs friends are the ones encouraging them to use the boost and start on PoF they should be prepared for the fact that they're bringing a new person into it and willing to compensate for that, otherwise they're pretty poor friends.

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 I'm not sure why you would need to buy a L80 Boost (one is included with each expansion), but if you did want to purchase one, be aware that you need an _empty_ Shared Inventory Slot to do so. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
