I'll make sure Throbble adds you when she gets home from work.
Elessar, you are forgetting after the Sanctum Cay mission you go to the Crystal Desert where you must complete 3 missions to ascend then you have to go through the Dragon's Lair and pass 6 tests. After that you end up in the Southern Shiverpeaks where you can travel to the Copperhammer Mines.
As for guild vs. guild battles there are a few things we need to do before we even attempt a guild vs. guild battle.
First, everyone needs to unlock at least a good number of skills, runes and weapon upgrades. That way they can at least make a PvP only character if they don't have a RP character that is fully leveled with the best armor and weapons. As Elessar pointed out, some of the necessary common skills and all of the elite skills are hard to get. (Elite skills can only be learned by using a Signet of Capture to steal it from a boss monster that uses the skill.)
Second, we need 8 players with PvP experience. That means a bunch of us need to start practicing in the various arenas, especially Tomb of the Primevil Kings. This can be reached with the PvP only character or by your RP character once you Ascend and travel to the Dragons Lair. Practice, practice, practice!
Lastly, we need to come up with some strategies and team builds. Unfortunatly Arivs is down so I can't access our beta strategy discussions right now. However, it would help to know what type of character builds people are planning to make for PvP. At least then we can discuss which roles we need to fill (tank, healer, caster, etc.) I will start a topic to list your PvP and team build ideas.
Since guild vs. guild battles effect our Guild Rating, we all need to be experienced and comfortable at team vs. team battles before we even think about guild vs. guild battles.
