I'm getting the game in a few hours so I'll be able to level with you if you're online. Should be great :D

Only about 2 hours to go. I'm such a sad sack :blush:

In maths at the moment and my courseworks come back as 'unmarked' :) I'm supposed to be doing it all again but as far as I can see I've done everything, it's just because I did it in 2 pages.

heh has anyone found a use for the red iris flowers?

i think there are collectors who give you stuff in exchange? not sure.

Are there any restrictions on names in guild wars? Can I be Scotty McDeath?

If the name is not taken i suppose you can. The only limit is that it has to be at least 2 words (afaik).

Yeah, should really edit that.

Bout 1/2 hour to go :D

I was wondering, someone said that you don't really jump in the game but while you're fighting can you move around and dodge the enmies spells/attacks etc.?

I was also wondering how quickly things die, I prefer to take health off things from a distance so a bow and arrow would be best for me, but they usually don't do alot of damage so it almost always resorts to hand to hand combat. Is it posssible in this game to shoot people, run away a bit, shoot again? Kind of like a constant hit and run tactic?

And if someone (A real life player) is just wandering past in a forest or something can you kill them for experience, or gold, or items?

Thanks.

If you want to pvp then there are places for that. I dont think you'll see someone wandering around as most maps are your own instance so no one else can screw up your quest.

Needs a little to get used to, didnt like it so much at the beginning, but now the more i play the more i like it. :D

maybe in pvp but in pve running away is a pain in the ass. they will chase you outside their zone, which is really annoying, 'cause if your party dies and you take off running, they will chase you and you will eventually die if being chased by a ranger or mage. for some reason the monsters run faster than you can. a lot of times running away simply isn't an option :(

Is it just me, or does the PvE in this game get REALLY boring? I mean.... I played WoW for like 3 months, but the PvE wasn't nearly this bad.... maybe it's because the PvP is so fun .... who knows :D

Hmm, actually i found WoW quite boring. After lvl 20 i just couldnt get into any story anymore. So i basically didnt read any quests anymore but just accepted and readed what i have to do in the overview.

GW on the other hand is interesting, for the moment anyway. I'm only lvl 6 and just going out of pre-searing so dont know how good it is at later lvls. I just hope end-game is not like WoW, where 99% of the quests are crap and since you dont need xp you dont do any quests anymore and basically you're just bored.

Where can I find some rare gold items. I mean there are a whole lot of people selling them, but I would like to find them myself. Which area would have them..

Specifically, Im looking for Gold Hammers. Could anyone point me a direction.

Began lvling up quite fast because of the bonus missions. >> Lvl 14 W/E...

you will need them at the temple of ages in the underworld.  keep the flute too because you will need it in the underworld as well.  you give it to gwen's mom who you will meet there.

I didn't end up getting the flute, or red iris flower. Is there a way to get it post-sear.

Is it free to play online or do you have to pay monthly charges

No monthly fees. Its free to play. You just have to buy the game.

    • Microsoft admits one of the most crucial Outlook features is currently broken by Sayan Sen Microsoft is making some decent progress when it comes to Windows 11. Recently we have confirmed reports of some rather useful improvements landing in the next version of the OS, 26H2, wherein GPU driver TDR crashes may finally be fixed, plus the company is also allowing users to disable web content on the Search. On the Outlook front though things have not been so rosy. Last month in May we reported several problems affecting basic functionalities on the app. These included a problem where documents would open blank or corrupt themselves. Following that, Quick Steps, a very useful feature, would no longer work correctly, and finally, Microsoft acknowledged a problem wherein images would fail to load up properly inside the email. Microsoft had resolved those bugs later and almost exactly a month after we reported on them, the company has now admitted a new similarly basic issue, this time on Macs. Users recently started noticing that Outlook would no longer display email threads properly as the original message itself was not displayed. An affected user Tsoumpas, C (ngmb) nicely described the problem in a forum post they made on Microsoft's site. They wrote: "Description of the issue: After updating Outlook for Mac [Version 16.110 (26061317)] on 18/6/2026, replying to any email no longer includes the original message in the reply window. Prior to the update, replies correctly contained the original email text below my response. Expected behavior: The original message should be included in the reply, as in previous Outlook versions and according to the configured reply settings. Actual behavior: The reply window contains only a blank composition area (or only my response), with none of the original email text included." Obviously this must be a highly frustrating for users as noted by several in that thread. The post, at the time of writing, has also been upvoted by more than 40 users indicating that is a fairly widespread bug. Thankfully Microsoft seems to have acknowledged the problem right around that time as it opened a new issue on its official website. In the support article, the company recommends switching to Outlook for Mac from the legacy app, where the problem appears to be happening.
