Gunnar's Hold

From Guild Wars Wiki

Gunnar's Hold
Campaign	Eye of the North
Region	Far Shiverpeaks
Type	Town
Party size	8
Exit(s)	Norrhart Domains

“

The armorer, Gunnar Poundfist, claims current ownership over this massive hearthstead, the longest-occupied of all Norn settlements. The great hold has changed names numerous times over the years, controlled and claimed by many powerful Norn. Gunnar is a notable smith, a profession that earns great respect within the Norn community; enough so that Poundfist's claim on Gunnar's Hold has stood for quite some time, as most other Norn are wary of losing his good will.

Bug.

You cannot auto-walk (double-click on name or click+space) to any NPC located in closed non-passable pavilions: auto-walking instead takes you on a straight line path to your target, and you stop at any obstacle, even a slanted obstacle that normally allows you to "slide" sideways. Apparently, the pathfinding AI is unable to work correctly in such case.

Bug.

Sometimes the fire in the centre of Gunnar's Hold stops moving.
