Guild Wars: Nightfall

In the 3rd installment of the Guild Wars series, the players explore the lands of Elona. This land is divided into the three provinces: Istan, Kourna and Vaabi. There is peace between the fractions at the moment, but the fallen God Abaddon prepares his return with the help of his devotees to bring back once again Nightfall over Elona.

Besides the whole new land and updated graphics, the game also brings big and small changes not only limited to this game but also for Prophecies and Factions. For instance, it is now possible to save different templates of skills.

The biggest changes were made to the AI. Players can hire computer-controlled characters to help them on their missions. They can not only be given orders like "stay here" or "go there", but there is also a whole new class of AI-helpers called "heroes". They are still controlled by the AI, but they can be defined and completely geared up at will. They now also increase in rank on their own.

Nightfall adds two new playable classes to the game: Dervish and Paragon. The Paragon likes to fight with a spear and shield from the back of the line. He also supports his teammates with various battle cries. The Dervish on the other hand, loves to get into the pile and fight the enemies with his scythe. He also has the ability to transform himself into an avatar of one of the gods which gives him new skills and abilities.
