This new hero is named M.O.X. the Golem, and he is an Asuran construct, quoted as being "the ultimate in magic, mechanised party protection." He will be a Dervish class and not available in PvP at all.



However, there's more to the story.

This new Hero will be made available in the new Guild Wars: The Complete Collection set due for release on September 5th, 2008. This edition will include all three Guild Wars campaigns, plus the only expansion, Eye of the North.

Mox will be made available to anyone -- at no cost -- who has the three core Guild Wars campaigns active on their account. Mox is expected to be available in the September build.

    MOX will be a Dervish hero

    I barely use Melonni, never used Kahmu

    It'll be cool to have an Asuran Golem Bodyguard hehehe

    But right now, it has no place on my 3Necroway heroes team

    (PvE Paraway) Another hero isn't that exciting to be honest; it will have little, or almost none impact on my gaming and I've already got enough heroes - another one won't make much of a difference.

    Yeah, I don't see how this really matters, it's just another hero. Also, is his name fake? M.O.X? Sounds like a joke...

    Also, I don't see why they need to add even more heroes, considering that you can shape each one to how you play, so it's not like henchies, who have a skill set limited to the 8 on their bar and a limited intelligence on how to use said skills.

    Also, I like the new "Complete Collection", but it seemed obvious that they were going to retail something like this, like what they did with the Warcraft series. Intel on retail cost, anyone? I'm guessing $100+, considering how much all of the campaigns cost together and I'm sure they decreased some of prices on them (like Factions).

    Nope, thats his name, he's an Asuran robot thingy and even has different looks for his Avatar changes too...  Those I want to see

    More choice,and soon there will be three of every profession, so you can have four man parties of things like four MM's in your groups, and things like that

    M.O.X. the Golem is the latest hero to be made available within the Guild Wars universe, an Asuran construct, quoted as "...the ultimate in magic, mechanised party protection."

    Recruitment

    M.O.X. will be made available to anyone who has the three Guild Wars campaigns active on their account. However, the specifics on obtaining this hero have not yet been released.

     Notes

    • M.O.X. is expected to be made available in the September update
    • Unlike other Golems, M.O.X. will be susceptible to all conditions
    • This hero will be PvE only and will not be usable in PvP

    Trivia

    • M.O.X.'s name was inspired by the short story Moxon's Master
    • M.O.X. will use unique models for the five avatar forms

    The screenshots of MOX lumbering across the landscape are going to be very amusing.

    Massive ePeening also follows; and they can be put in your Hall of Monuments. They're the typical kind of MMORPG reward: has no impact on the game except for showing off.

    As adverstised in play.com

    http://www.play.com/Games/PC/4-/6279181/Guild-Wars-The-Complete-Collection/Product.html

     

    As advertised in gamestop

    http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=72496
