hugo.4705 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Yup for me, it's only a new base of operations for the pack, nothing more, no housing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phokus.8934 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 It seems like Sun's Refuge is just being brought back as a hub. If they were going to add in housing then I'm sure they'd make a blog post on it and not hide it in a video with 30 seconds of talk. Upgradeable armor sounds like there will be more ways to upgrade tiers of armor but it's so vague on what he said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayrilana.1396 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 My assumption is that it'll just be a scaled down guild hall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'm wrong, but upgrading your personal guildhall will probably be a grind of legendary proportions. > Seing that Anet didn't give us much incentive to spend time in our GHs, I hope they give us something to do in our own instance. I'm just not setting myself up for dissapointment here and expect nothing. I hope for the best but my experiences with the GH system lets me believe that there will be no incentive to spend time in your instance beside RP'ing(to some that's a plus, for me not so much, but to each their own). I think you're right to not get too excited because a lot depends on implementation. As for usefulness, well, something that I enjoy spending time on is useful to me in the context of a game. The building and/or decoration of the place is a use in and of itself because it's an activity that you can spend time on and enjoy if that's your thing. First we'll have to see though if there will be housing at all. I'd like it but I'm not convinced yet ArenaNet are going for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scar.1793 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 For housing it would be cooler to share a map with other players and see what the others made. A completely private zone wouldn’t change much from the capitals home instances we already have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manasa Devi.7958 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 An upgradeable instance of an area that you could add armorers to in GW1. Surely this ties in with the upgradeable armor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tails.9372 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I hope I can turn it into a futuristic looking asura base, not so keen on the whole "desert" theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenom.9457 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Probably semi-housing, refining their true housing for xpac 3. Either way im excited! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hugo.4705 Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Dont' want to it to be full -sunspear/elonian :o also I dunno if everyone instance would be different, It would require the ability to decorate, if not after a certain upgrade, everyone would have the same one. :/ The most promising is unlocking npc to earn rewards but again if only humans..... err I just to make a giant asuran lab with plants from the grove.

Eloc Freidon.5692 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 I was really hoping we'd get to pick the locations for our team's base. Everyone's max upgraded refuge will look the exact same if its nothing more than unlocking vendors to get unique skins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Well, it wasn't advertised as 'housing'. The Devs stated it was more along the lines of what they had originally envisioned the Personal Home Instance to be. Of course, the Home Instance changes are character-based; no idea if this will be, as well; since there is only the one instance, I'd guess not.

But the idea is essentially the same. Hence the "steroids on steroids". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sazukikrah.5036 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 I wonder if it will have a portal to travel to it. I hardly use the home instance function. hoping its not another future that will be added and just overlooked after a week or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menadena.7482 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Hopefully we will get more of them if this is popular. Can you imagine if eventually we we doing things, oh, well north of Divinity's Reach, and both our personal instance and GH were way down south?

Given the likely location has it right next to at least one other map and the announcement talked about it being an event hub I would say there is a pretty good chance.
