Mega update finally done...
Everyone should check out the ranger (having a shark as a pet? Awesome!), at least watch the skill videos. As someone who played a ranger in the first game, I'm psyched to try out this one!
There is also some very nice info on deaths and death penalties, and the healing and support roles in the game for those who haven't seen it, go check it out, and see why GW2 doesn't have a dedicated healing class.
I've added some tidbits all around as well, information on some activities to do outside normal combat (bar brawl sounds fun as hell!), achievements, travelling and others.
