Guild Wars 2: Path of Fire is the second expansion to ArenaNet's Guild Wars 2, released in 2017 for Windows and Mac. Set in the Crystal Desert region of Tyria, the expansion centers on a pursuit of Balthazar, a rogue god whose destructive campaign destabilizes the world's magical order. Players lead allied forces in tracking him down across the desert landscape. The expansion's most prominent addition is a mount system, which goes beyond simple travel speed. Using the Mastery progression system available to max-level characters, players unlock and train mounts capable of crossing canyons, scaling cliffs, and traversing quicksand, opening up the environment in new ways. Each of the game's professions also receives a new elite specialization, introducing additional weapons, traits, and playstyles. Alongside these mechanical additions, Path of Fire offers new armor sets, weapon skins, and cosmetic items drawing from Elonian cultural aesthetics.
Humanity has worshipped the six gods for centuries, even as their prayers went unanswered. Now the god of fire and war, Balthazar, has made an unexpected return, only to reveal himself as a ruthless manipulator with little regard for mortal life. Tyria's heroes thwarted the first stage of his catastrophic plan to destroy the Elder Dragons—but now he's raised a zealous army to cut a path of terror and destruction across the south. You must halt their march before Balthazar sets the foundations of the world ablaze.
