What is the difference between a class and a path?
Picking a Class is choosing the way you like to fight. Are you a gunslinger, a squishy healer, or meatshield? Picking your Path is choosing your playstyle. Do you like to explore dangerous places, kill enemies, or study things? Make a choice, and we'll make sure you get lots of what you like.


Is there a difference between Path content and other kinds of content?
Path content is specially designed to support particular playstyles. Are you a lorehound? Sure, everyone gets to learn some lore in WildStar, but the Scientist really gets to dig in to the nitty-gritty. Maybe building and socializing is your bag? Then choose a Setter, and construct unique objects and buildings for your buddies on Nexus.


Do I get credit for joining in other players' path missions?
Yes. We call it "Crossing Paths", and you get rewards for doing it. So get out there and lend a helping hand!


How come I didn't get a beta invite?
Patience, people! We're easing into beta to make sure we do it right, but we're going to be opening it up to lots more people in the future. So stay tuned!


What happens if I skip Path quests and Path content?
Nothing. Path content is not required in order to level. That being said, you'll be missing out on some of the coolest content in the game. We wouldn't recommend it.


Why should I give a damn about Paths? Do I get stuff?
All kinds of stuff! As you level your Path throughout the game, you get special abilities, loot, costumes and cash. Sounds pretty awesome, right? It is.


Can I respec my Path?
Currently? No. Like your Class, your Path is a permanent and defining aspect of your character. But you can always roll an alt or two!


How did you come up with these Paths?
Have you heard of Bartle types? Our Paths are loosely based on those. But mainly we just looked at the ways players play MMOs, and designed cool content around them.


I like killing, exploring, lore and building! Why can't I do all of them?
You can and will! Standard quest content will contain little bits of all of them. Don't worry! We've got you covered.


Can I get a beta invite?
Did you say the magic word?

The culprit behind the recent wildlife attacks on Southsun Cove has been revealed: the sylvari renegade Canach.

In a fatally misguided attempt to free the new settlers from exploitation by The Consortium, Canach has turned the creatures of the island into tools of destruction. Can you and Inspector Kiel of the Lionguard stop Canach’s plot before the shores of Southsun Cove run red with blood?

Hunt Down Canach

Join Kiel for a mission to capture the deadly, desperate Canach! In this all-new story dungeon, you’ll enter Canach’s Lair on a subterranean solo mission under the island. If you defeat the elusive sylvari you’ll unlock a challenging all-new group adventure!

A Monstrous Threat

Even if you manage to capture Canach, can you also foil his master plan? Defend the new settlers on Southsun Cove from a massive final onslaught of rampaging wildlife or die trying! And beginning June 5, a hulking monstrosity joins the fray—without your help, it will destroy the settlers and everything they’ve built!

New Improved World XP

We’re improving the way we award World XP to World vs. World players! Now you’ll gain rewards for a much wider range of activities in the Mists – everything from destroying siege weapons, repairing walls, escort missions, and more.

Greater Variety and More Rewards in WvW

We’re adding new WvW daily achievements to the list you can choose from so you can earn World XP for playing the way you want. And every time you gain a new World rank, you’ll earn a bonus chest packed with useful WvW loot!

Dangerous New WvW Abilities

Become even deadlier in The Mists with new World vs. World abilities like Burning Oil Mastery or new ranks in Defense Against Guards!

Introducing Infusions and Ascended Gear in WvW

Now you can purchase Ascended rings and amulets and upgrade your WvW abilities with six new Infusions that give your character special WvW bonuses! Just speak to the new Laurel and Badge Merchants on each map.

WvW Matchup Changes!

World vs. World matches are about to get an injection of variety! With these changes you can look forward to facing new opponents in new matchups and testing your world’s skill against more foes!

Update: Custom PvP Arenas and Spectator Mode Beta

We’ve had some great feedback from beta players that have enabled us to fix bugs and further improve these new features. We’re adding Custom Arena Time Tokens to the Gem Store so beta players can extend the time of their favorite custom arenas!

New Southsun Cove Rewards

Find your very own limited-edition Mini Reef Rider – a loyal floating friend available only until June 11! Dedicated defenders of the Southsun settlers can also earn the Settler’s Amulet, Keepsake, and Ring! Earn these rare new rewards from creatures and chests in Southsun Cove, and by playing Crab Toss!

Exclusive Southsun Items: Fervid Censer and Sclerite Karka Shell

The risks are great on Southsun Cove, but so are the rewards! Players who help keep the peace during the Secret of Southsun can earn two exclusive new back items, the floral Fervid Censer and the writhing Sclerite Karka Shell!

Great movie... see it in IMAX 3d if you can!

Sadly the nearest IMAX theater to me is two and a half hours down the road in the middle of a 100+ degree desert in the summer...

Yes, bump/reminding, second meeting today at 1P/4E for those that couldn't attend Wednesday!

Still won't be able to make this second meeting. At 1PM I'll be outside doing a mock scenario for my Wilderness First Responder Course of how to deal with a rafting accident and multiple people having concussions. Now... If the meeting was tonight, I'd be able to attend.

For some fun speculation on the last two classes, here are some screenshots of in game players (stills are taken from various WildStar videos that are floating around, the Aurin one is an actual screenshot from somewhere):

This thread scares me...

Anyways, my Quaggan contribution:

05/22/13 is a Wednesday which means the poster is tied to a WildStar Wednesday announcement.

Considering the past two WsW's have been about a stress test and the second closed beta test, I doubt this poster has anything to do with those events.

Class dismissed. This could refer to either the last two races or the last two classes. With the last two races, we know one is science based and the other is intelligence based. Could the classroom setting be a set up to teach one faction who to fear on the other side (and vice versa)? Or it could be as simple as class dismissed referring to the two unveiled classes which are speculated to be a rifle wielder (ranged tank) and a staff wielder (melee healer).
