    “Code of Creation” Concludes Visions of Eternity on September 15

    The Visions of Eternity finale brings six story chapters, the Leyspring Hollows map, a ten-player raid encounter and the Solitary Throne fractal. ArenaNet dated everything after it out to Wintersday.

    • —Six story chapters, the Leyspring Hollows map, and the Nexus of Eternity as both a Convergence and a ten-player raid.
    • —A new fractal, Solitary Throne, takes groups of up to five.
    • —Challenge Modes for all three open on 29 September; the raid's Legendary Mode follows on 13 October.
    • —The roadmap runs to Wintersday on 8 December, with a skills-and-balance update and a WvW map beta on 10 November.

    For your guild
    Depths of Cruelty runs on a three-hour cycle rather than the expansion’s two, and Shackles of the Ancients shifts five minutes earlier to stop the two colliding. Leyspring Hollows closes once its meta completes, and Challenge Modes are three weeks out.

    The Festival of the Four Winds Is Live Now!

    The summer festival runs in the Labyrinthine Cliffs and the Crown Pavilion until September 1, with a Cloud Pteruges leg armour skin, Spellwork weapons, homestead decoration recipes and Wizard's Vault objectives for Astral Acclaim.

    For your guild
    Three weeks of festival objectives that pay Astral Acclaim make easy guild-night filler, and nobody needs gear to join in. Book it early rather than late; the Crown Pavilion is better with a full instance behind you.

    WvW War Score: Beta 2 Results and What’s Next

    Beta 2's numbers put objective captures near 30 percent of War Score and player kills near 25. Beta 3 runs August 11 to September 4, removes points for guard kills, and boosts points for defensive kills around objectives.

    For your guild
    Re-brief your squads before August 11. Fights near your own objectives will score, farming guards will not, and the return of placement-based rewards means match standing matters again.
