Waypoints serve as fast travel markers in Guild Wars 2, allowing players to teleport for a small fee to the main areas that they have already been to. In terms of game progression, this is also another set of things to collect. With today’s update, Arenanet has introduced the ability to buy waypoint unlocks. Waypoints are unlocked per region for 600 gems, or for the entire region of Tyria (pre-expansions) for 2000 gems (about $25 USD).
East Nowhere to stop a rampaging whatever from eating Fill-in-the-Blank Village, but you’re new in town. Good news*—we’ll instantly register you at all the waypoints in a region of your choice. Buy the Waypoint Unlock Box to unlock one of the regions on our list, or buy the Central Tyria Waypoint Unlock Package for all of them.
