Necromancers return for Guild Wars 2 as the bringers of death and destruction along with the unique ability to return life to those who have perished, as mindless undead zombies of course.
The Dragon Festival begins at the start of Summer and lasts four days in Guild Wars. It's full of minigames, rollerbeetle racing, and plenty of festival items.
Balanced PvP (player vs. player) is a major part of Guild Wars. The Battle Isles, the location of all of the primary PvP maps, is where most of the action happens.
