I beat the "mirror" yesterday :D it took me one try, and probably a bit of luck too. Its a questt you do in the crystal deserts and i have heard many people say its really hard and a friend said it took him 20+ tries to beat it. Well i beat it straight away :D in a very short time. I was on 510 health and in about 5 seconds my opponent and me were on half life, pretty fast. Eventually he bled to death after i used my "sever artery" a few times, but the funny thing is, 3 seconds after he died, i died :laugh: i also bled to death.

@D3ft0ne well the first farming spot i found was at the Beacons Perch, south. I t has some good monsters to fight and sometimes good drops. I first did this with a level 15 warrior/mesmer and 5 henchies. And i got plenty of loot and gold and xp, every mosnter i killed gave around 50+ xp, and i found some good bows with 13-27 dmg, which i would usually sell for around 500 gold and populated cities like ascalon. I becma rich quite fast too :woot: Kryta i heard has good drop by the level 18 Drakes, i tried it a few times and didnt get lucky. The missions at crystal deserts are quite good for loot. I found a dragon sword and a purple stats bow and a purple sword on some of the the missions. I havent really found any other good farming spots yet, its all luck, Hydras can be good for loot sometimes. Come with me sometime if ya want i will show u the beacons perch farming spot. I sometimes go on raids with henchies killing everything i see and get some useful things but i am not in the part of the game where very good drops occur yet.

I wonder what the purpose of the gold storage could be. Its not like Diablo 2 where you lose gold when you die. Unless if people want to carry it over to PvP characters.

Its about time they changed the linen squares thing. I spent 3 plat to get like 10 squares of linen because it was so scarce.

PvP characters can't buy or trade items so gold isn't of use to them.

It's just to be able to more easily transfer gold from one PvE character to another.

The weird thing is, there is a storage area at the HoH. I guess she is there for people who make it there with their PvE character. I am slow and discovered last night that you can fight with PvP and PvE characters in a PvP game.

I don't understand the PvP and PvE things? What are the advantages/disadvantages of both?

Edit: http://www.guildwars.com/news/gameupdates.html

As far as I can see these people are very good, every complaint i've seen on this board is already being adresses. If customer support carries on like this i'm going to end up loving the game creators :$

PvP characters are super powerful, but you can only use them in Player vs Player areas, can't do missions

PvE charasters start from level 1, and you gain skill while you do missions and quest. you gain loot, sell it, but new armor (or make)

As an RP character you can make it to the arena where the lvl 20 pvp guys are and they are not that much more powerful... Better gear maybe.. But impossible no, I won at least 13 rounds until we finally got defeated. My team was awesome.

This is minorly guild wars related: My Xfire thing isn't showing how much gaming I've done. Will it only show when I play at least an hour of a game, or do I need to play the game online or what?

Says I havn't played any games but today I've played Doom3 and NFSU2.

I wan't it working by tomorrow as I want to count my Guild Wars time.

You need to online in xfire. Also go to Tools > Find Installed Software. Then when it find something, click the game name and then click the install path bellow. Then click Apply. You have to do that for each game. Then after you run the game minimize it and check if the status says you're playing it.

Also the stats are not updated instantly, its done once a hour or so on the Xfire servers.

thats probably becuse of experience,

and PVP characters people sometimes make then just to try it out, and they don't know how to use all the new skills

It did all that automatically, I think it wa sjust the need for the servers to refresh as it says less than 1 hour now. Thanks for the help.

    • Hey Google, these are the Gemini features I want in 2026

      I used to use Google assistant, not on the phone i have now, but about 7 years ago, then I decided it did not really do anything for me. Because i had Echo units over the house I added Alexa to the phone to control stuff and that is how it is now. Not the new Alexa+, as that is not really available in the U.K yet apart from on new units and to be honest, not interested in it. I went though the stage years ago of using voice to do text and call people, quicker to do it using my hands. I had a muck about with Siri on my Mac when I first got it, but not having a microphone permanently plugged in makes it a pain. I know it can be used by text. Siri like Apple AI is disabled on my Mac and will stay disabled.
    • It's about to become harder to turn off your Samsung TV, thanks to Instagram

      By ad47uk · Posted

      I have a TV, but it is not used for normal linear TV, only streaming and it is not a Samsung and the best bit is, I don;'t and never have had a Instagram account. The only thing I have to do with Meta is Faceache and I only keep that just for the messaging part.

      But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.

      Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
