TheOrlyFactor.8341 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 I can't find the song that plays upon entering Desert Highlands and Jahai Bluffs so here's my favorite track from Guild Wars 2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZegoboAgPg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsPeeXXXVIII.9571 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 I like every piece in the game more or less equally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheQuickFox.3826 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Guild Wars and Guild Wars 2 have been blessed with the work of Jeremy Soule and a few other very talented composers. There are so many excellent soundtracks that I cannot just mention one. I think my all-time favourite may be the Luxon soundtrack, of GW: Factions Even tho I was Kurzick, I would give the prize for the best soundtrack to the Luxons here. Whenever I hear this, I see myself roaming with my trusty henchies over the endless frozen jade sea, with a few Saltspray Dragons floating by in the distance. Nothing expresses the feeling of being alone at the end of the world as the theme of Abaddon's Mouth: Few things in my life were more welcome than the Factions expansion, with this masterpiece as login theme: And this peaceful soundtrack after you beaten the game and was greeted with firework, the ending credits and all your friends. Who doesn't remember the savage Shiverpeaks with this soundtrack? It looks like the snow finally cleared up a bit. Tasca's Theme Guild Wars: Eye of the North Man, I was so hyped for this. The Bazaar of the Four Winds And of course, the GW2 ending theme Fear not this Night. An absolute Masterpiece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faowri.4159 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 The GW1 OST will always have a special place in my heart - even hearing some of my favourites, like First Light, chokes me up. JS's work is always very good for ambient environmental immersion. But aside from a few of his tracks for GW2, I never really felt like his work on this game _specifically_ stood out. The most emotive pieces are the GW1 tracks that play in Ascalon maps, imo. There are a couple, like the charr themes, that stick out in my mind, but that's it. The rest all kinda blur into one big "nice" ambience after a while. I feel like the in-house team have brought a lot more distinctive, lively character to the soundtrack ever since. There are some real standouts, and the expansion OSTs are fantastic. I've said before, I wish they'd properly release the LW season soundtracks the same way. I'd happily buy. Soundcloud is a little restrictive, even if I can appreciate getting stuff for free. One I haven't seen linked here is the Marionette battle music from S1, another of my faves: (I really miss that fight, too! :'( ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hugo.4705 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I always been amazed by soundtracks, it's crazy that music can share intense emotions and make you dream imagining big things. My favourite would be Assault on the Breachmaker. You feel the tension, the pressure in the air. There is mechanical like sounds and the instruments choice is awesome. But I have a serious crush on Rata Novus and the DDR (Arkk) theme. Both are very interesting and mysterious; it build up slowly and I like the main melodies. The Artwork of Rata novus loading screen and the soundtracks are both stunning as example but it's really sad the map design wasn't at the same level and it was to me a disapointement. I can listen to those musics and then dream of Gw2 locations that doesn't exist. The other night I was at a lagoon with a giant rata-sum like city floating on the left with several waterfalls coming out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blur.3465 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I really love quality soundtrack and GW2 is one of those games that has it. I have a couple of favorite ones: Veins of the Dragon Tomb of Primeval Kings Quaggan Command Rata Novus Bjora Marches Wolf Spirit Taming the Jungle The Prophecy Redux Whisperer of the Ice Dragon Forging Steel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robertthebard.8150 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I don't know the name of the track, but there's some ambient music that plays on the Kryta maps that calls me back to Aribeth's Theme from NWN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidnightX.6294 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Why are there no Sea of Sorrows, Trahearne's Reverie and The Tengu Wall samples? Let me fix this - also i would love if anet would create some battle music that feels MORE EPIC - just like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zealex.9410 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Battle on the breachmaker, mordremoth fight theme, rata novus and the end of pof one in that order.

AllNightPlayer.1286 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I’m surprised, this one wasn’t mentioned already. Perfect fit for underwater content and it reminds me of my very first character in August 2012—a _Sylvari_—helping those poor _Quaggans_ and _Hyleks_ in Caledon. Too bad underwater is abandoned content in GW 2. It has/had so much potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErikTheTyrant.4527 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 A Land restored, Attack on Tarir, and Balthazar's theme (not sure what its called) specifically at 4:00, love that part of his theme. Are my favorites from base game and each expansion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyCakeLight.3750 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Does Fear Not This Night count? Or, is that too cheesy of an answer? I still get teary eyed from it. So so beautiful. Brings back memories of the first time clearing Arah with my friends. The Zhaitan fight may not have been spectacular. Especially relative to today's higher standards set by Anet. But, it was honestly just a magical moment for me in gaming when we were standing on the airship and Fear Not This Night started playing. I'm starting to tear up just writing this. Ha! I'm not usually the type to listen to game soundtracks. But, I can click play on any of the music posted in this thread and know it. I do enjoy GW2's OST in general.

pninak.1069 Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 for me it is battle on breachmaker, marrionette and clocktower. I really like the old gw1 bgm, but it doesn't work with gw2 imo. that's why I have chosen soundtracks that are not tied to gw1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serphentelm.6590 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 I've scrolled down listening to every ost i've encountered, and i'm surprised no one mentioned Tarir, the Forgotten City.
