Guild Wars 2 to Unveil Stronghold

As Heart of Thorns, the expansion for Guild Wars 2 comes closer every day, more and more bits of information are being revealed. The game mode Stronghold is a new form of PvP that ArenaNet is sure will please their fans. This mode is similar to the original Guild vs. Guild, but it also plays a bit like a MOBA game. There are various lanes and barracks that stand in your way of taking down the opponents' lord. Defeating the enemy lord will give you sweet victory, and losing yours will result in defeat. There will also be numerous NPCs that players can hire to help them out. While these NPCs are not as strong as player characters, they will be able to break down doors, rain volleys of arrows upon their enemies, and guard various areas. Which NPCs players choose and how they use them will be a major tactical part of Stronghold, and players should look forward to the exciting new game mode.
