Everyones talking about pets, is it possible to just go off by yourself, and what makes you gain levels? XP?

If so, then can XP be gained just by quests or can you just kill stuff, and are there random animals just walking around that you can charm/kill?

Should be getting the game soon, got ?20 towards it.

Cool, I definately want to be a ranger then as I want pets. Apart from that are there any substantial things I need to know before deciding my class? I've found an online manual on the guild wars site, but surely each class will have defensive bonus' etc or offensive bonus' etc.

I only need to muster ?10, hmmmmmm.

Damn it to hell the Hall of Heros is hard. My guild and myself have been trying to win in the hall of heros for so long now. It is getting insane. The final stage of the hall of heros is a 8 team battle royale, each team made of 8 players each. It seems like the Koreans always gang up together on the Americans. The closest we have made to winning it is getting down to one team vs. our team, but they creamed us. Has anyone here won it yet?

Wait till some British get there, we'll beat them for ya :p

Maybe you should try different tactics? More jumping around so they can't manage to hit you?

I played in the HoH for around 3 hours last night. I think we encountered only one European team in that time. The majority of teams are definitely Korean and American and the Koreans seem like they have an unspoken pact to go after the American guilds first before they fight each other. There were mutliple instances where two Korean teams would attack us at the same time, but they did not attack each other.

Edit:    A quick question, I've looked at the manual and is Ranger/monk a good choice?

I'm a level 12 Ranger/Monk myself, and I must say I do not regret that I chose that combination. My best tip is that you find some friends and do your quests with them. Three Level 12 friends are better than three level 6 henchmen, keep that in mind! ;)

If you were talking to me, I'm not to sure. I'm gonna ask them to send me the key right away, but if they dont then i guess its gonna take around 2-3 days.

Well I'm trying to get ?10 by Thursday, I don't know how but I'll manage sometime.

I might just go exploring for a bit first, rather than jumping into quests as I prefer to just run around and waste an hour or two killing animals and stuff, kind of like morrowind.

Except morrowind had very few monsters in most places and too many in other places.

I'm skipping upgrading my faulty motherboard to buy this game, it better be good!

im a level 10 ranger/monk and it seems to be a pretty good combination. idk, i wish i had more spells that dealt damage though. i have created a second character that is a monk/mesmer, and he seems to be pretty strong. it all just depends on what kind of person you are. pick the profession that most suits what you would enjoy doing.

don't really matter which profession you start out with. they all have their advantages/disadvantages. but you DO have the pre-sear environment which is to basically get you ready and experiment before the "real" game begins.

Same here. I'll be paying it today or tomorrow depending on if i have enough time to do it.

The game takes a few days to get here so no hurry (unless they send me the key).

Hope to see ya in there soon then.;))

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features

      If you don't care to read what I said, then you prove my point. Maybe written media is beyond your attention span. Titles are not summaries my friend.

      Nobody asked... in fact, I said "I don't care about political leanings"

      TLDR. Here is a far better title (just a basic example): Windows 11 26H2 to allow disabling Web search results

      Restore will get my vote, only if to see if things are any different, doubt it though but Labour and Conservatives too out of touch and same thing over and over and over…, Lib Dem who?

      There is nothing wrong with this title. You have completely missed the plot when it comes to "clickbait." The issue was never that a title tries to entice you to click, that is how titles have worked for over 100 years. The issue is when the title subverts expectations, getting you to click expecting something that isn't there. The classic clickbait example is "Boyfriend caught cheating, what happens next will shock you," then what happened next is the girlfriend was upset...which is probably the least shocking outcome imaginable. If sounds like what you want is for the titles to be a collection of 10-word summaries that you can skim, get the just of the story, and only click if you want more details. That is not, never has been, and never will be what titles are. You can go all the way back to print newspapers during the great depression and see the same thing. The newspaper was locked in a vending machine, all you can see is the headline, you choose to put in 5¢ to buy the paper and read the rest if you want. Those headlines were written in a way to sell the paper, not just to provide a summery. Here are two actual headlines from that time, "Wall Street Lays an Egg," or "Stocks Hit Bottom?" Maybe you'd say something like "it was wrong then and it's still wrong now." Okay, fine opinion to have, but it isn't like Neowin is doing something unjurnalistic, they are just following the age-old standards for written media.
