Last week everything was dominated by E3, something that Arena.net was not part of. However, we did find out some awesome things.
The first thing was about the languages used in Guild Wars 2 which seems really interesting.
Arena.net also talked about their thoughts on the World Cup.
Hail loyal soldiers of Ascalon! It is Prince Rurik here with this week's tip:
Henchmen listen to orders. Call out a target to have all of the henchmen and heroes focus on that target if they're capable of doing so. This is important because you always want to take healers out first.
ArenaNet provides new insights into Traits and the Warrior profession.
Excitement for ArenaNets upcoming Guild Wars 2 continues to build as more gameplay details are revealed. One such aspect of the game thats been the hot topic of discussion among fans was the recent announcement of the Traits system. We had a few questions on how this system will function in the live game, and while rampant speculation is always fun sometimes its better to go directly to the source. Thats exactly what we did, and Guild Wars 2 Lead Designer Eric Flannum was awesome enough to take some time out of his busy schedule to provide us more details on traits as well as further insights into skill chains and the Warrior profession.

One of the many tools in their arsenal, traits, was revealed this week and could very well be the peanut butter to your skill bars jelly when it comes to build creation. Ten Ton Hammer offers up some insights as to what traits are all about in our Introduction to Traits in Guild Wars 2.
