Just thought it would be a good idea to get information about the expansion that is confirmed in one thread.

First, the official site:

https://heartofthorns.guildwars2.com/en

The FAQ (which may be updated silently from time to time):

https://help.guildwars2.com/entries/105 ... -Questions

Returning players will probably want to take a look at the features of the September 2014 feature pack, which includes the wardrobe - a way to collect and easily switch between unlocked weapon and armour skins:

Here's a look at some of the new masteries:

As much as I am usually a sponge for new info on GW2 - I've actually found I'm super resistant to today's media/youtuber releases. There's almost too much of it that it's soured my want to read/watch it all. I checked out MassivelyOP since I check them anyway, and I skimmed a couple of others.. but I think I'll just stay tuned for what Anet have to say after Pax East. From what I can tell, there's not actually a lot of new information in amongst all of this, just little snippets of extra stuff.

Not much new information, but actually getting to see details and the UI behind it is pretty exciting.

Just seeing the masteries stuff did get me a little blip on the hype radar! :D
