NCsoft has announced that they will be holding a three day Guild Wars Player Vs Player event. Players will be given a ‘Faction’ boost, allowing them to change their PvP characters’ configurations. The PvP Extreme Weekend starts on Friday 26th August at 8am (BST) and runs until 8am (BST) on Monday 29th August.

Since the introduction of Faction players have been able to progress in the game in any manner they like, be it solely in the PvP arenas or collecting Elite Skills in explorable areas,” says Gaile Gray, Community Relations Manager at ArenaNet. “With this week’s large-scale skill update this is the perfect opportunity for Guild Wars players to fine-tune their characters or unlock some of the rarer runes and weapon upgrades.”

More information on Guild wars can be found in our review of the game, and information on the PvP event can be found on the Guild Wars website.
