The folks over at Guild Wars have announced that they are offering a 5 hour trial for Eye of the North, the Guild Wars expansion. In addition, they will be lowering the level requirement from 20 to 10 for the expansion.
Players who've secretly longed to try out the new Guild Wars: Eye of the North expansion, rejoice! This holiday season we're giving everyone a present: a five-hour trial of GW:EN! Plus, in the latest update we permanently lowered the level requirement for Eye of the North from 20 to 10 to make it easier than ever to enjoy the first true Guild Wars expansion. Think your character doesn't have what it takes? Think again. We now provide a buff to all characters level 10-19 to go toe-to-toe with the new content.

Requirement*, seems like Szark has a lot of spelling mistakes lately XD. Pretty cool event, I've been helping out some of my guildies venture through the northern shiverpeaks. Plus sparklers, i mean ...who doesn't want sparklers...woot... =/
the only bad thing about "Journey to the North" buff is that it's not attributes buff up to 12 for weapon, buff to 9 for foci and buff to 9 for spells attr in current build.
it's hardcoded 12-9-9 and ZERO-ZERO-ZERO-ZERO on other attributes.
so some sub-level20 characters are not really "buffed" - they're punished for having non-standard attr. layout and skill build
but the event itself (lockpicks drop rate, dungeon chests drop rate, 3x exp for mainline EoTN quests) is rather good
Problem is you still have to make it to Lions Arch to get to the EotN content...a level 10 just isn't going to do that solo or with the Henchmen.
Does not seem worth it in a way. I mean there have been three different versions out, the expansion now, and talk of a guild wars two yet nothing much to really like. We are still stuck at level 20 while in every other game people are beyond that level. New heros but nothing in the profession section. Finally for those who can not move on in nightfall if he/she has a video card that is not good enough, what if the same thing happens in Eye of the north?
