teoteodore.2904 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I'm considering buying the expansion. I have a few 80s at various stages of the storyline. Can any of them enter the expansion zones and start the stories, or are they required to finish things in the main story first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarshallLaw.9260 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 If you buy the expansion, you will be free to "abandon" the current story and begin the POF one. This can be picked up at any point in the future. When travelling to the new area, you would need to complete a part of the POF story. Alternatively, if your guild has their hall as _Windswept Haven_, you can enter there, manually exit through the south portal and end up in Vabbi.

Balthazzarr.1349 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I don't believe you have to have any other story done first... BUT you will want to have the gliding mastery that you get in the HoT expansion. You can probably get by in there without it but it's definitely useful since you don't get to the griffon until you've completed the PoF story line AND all the other mounts to at least level 3 I believe. Hopefully someone can give you more solid information though. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Path of Fire mounts aren’t required for HoT content either (obviously) but all have their uses throughout the game, expansion content or not. You can start/abandon a story segment whenever you feel like through the Hero Panel, and pick up where you left off on any given section, core storyline included. If we are recommending masteries to have, the Pact mastery for Autoloot makes a huge difference in all content, and should be the first of core Tyria masteries to get.

Oglaf.1074 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 The only prerequisite is whether or not you you care about the story. If you don’t, there is nothing stopping you from skipping right ahead to PoF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teoteodore.2904 Posted March 28, 2018 Author Share Posted March 28, 2018 Thanks, guys!!! I really wanted the mount ... and do hate the jungle (lol), but I will finish the story if I can. Just didn't want to put out money and find I can't do anything with the xpac without putting days and weeks in the original. You've answered that!
