All things GW

[HideAndGoatse]

can you have ingame talk since it comes with a headset?

[nekrosoft13]

any thing that i have problem with is finding stuff to upgrade my armor, i don't even know what i need or how to get it.

especially when i saw people in ascalon (before the attack) running with custom armors.

[eccofresh]

well, after the attack you just need to go to a armor guy in ascalon and he tells you what you need

[Sensayshun]

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.

[eccofresh]

You can go off by yourself or in a group. Only Rangers can get pets. You gain levels by getting xp. you can get xp by killing enemys or doing quests, but you get alot more xp from the quests. The animals just run around and attack you, but they are not in all areas

[Sensayshun]

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.

[pixated]

Ordered it. Going to pay tomorrow. Cant wait to get it! :D

[Sensayshun]

Do you know when your games going to arrive coz we could level together if ya want?

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

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?

[Sensayshun]

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.

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.

[Sensayshun]

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!

Heh, that's not how Guild Wars works... :p

Edit: w00t, thought that post was the newest. Dang, I need sleep.

[sin-ergy]

^ um the only way to jump is to type /jump so......it's not very good tactics to stand there and type in /jump over and over :p heh

[D3ft0ne]

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.;))
