www.massively.com/2008/08/14/new-hero-added-to-the-guild-wars-npc-line-up/

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

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