Re: Guild Wars 2

ArenaNet is really good about customizable options. Guild Wars lets you completely reformat your screen to look how you want it. You can dye your armor custom colors. You can even, for a fee, change your complete appearance. I wouldn't worry about customizing in GW2.

Haha oh I know. Arenanet has the best customer service, and has never disappointed me.

Went browsing the Guild Wars 2 official site, just for kicks.

My "too good to be true" flag kept going off. I'll leave it at that.

Maybe for you but... Arena net has yet to fail at delivering what they promise.

Remember... These are the guys who actually broke off from Blizzard, and gave up tons of money for their vision of how a MMO should be.

Re: Guild Wars 2

I purchased the first 3 GW some time ago on Steam, but didn't play because I wanted my old account back (you can guess how it's called.)

Time to spend some quality time with costumer support.

Once you're in let me know your name so I can add you.

Re: Guild Wars 2

I started playing last night (new account), getting my old account back would require a lot of info that's been lost in the sands of time.

I got Factions back in 2007 but was still playing XI at the time, so I didn't really do much in GW at the time.

My first char is a Mesmer, but still not sure what kind of secondary I'm going to choose. Though being a RDM I'm tempted to go /war for an IW build (PvE). <_<

Re: Guild Wars 2

Mes/War is a good combo, I did it with an Axe when I first began playing. Was quite fun with the damage mitagation stuff.

Re: Guild Wars 2

I think it's settled then.

I'll probably go with Sword and shield. But I still don't know how their stats vary compared to axes, and there's also the option of using Scythes for the AoE effect.

/yay for being a noob.

Scythes are nice, but only for Dervish. Unless you go Warrior/Derv.

Axes are interrupting weapons, where as Swords are damage. hammers are just DPS/interrupt.

Re: Guild Wars 2

I see. Does the Axe interrupt proceed even under IW?

And looking at the models most axes look better than swords anyway. Except for the Deldrimor Sword that is, that sword looks awesome.

Just... need to figure out how to get it. <_<

Re: Guild Wars 2

Haha. Just get all of your Heroes up to max level, and farm it with them. I remember getting the Scythe that my derv has.... The boss could insta kill three people in one swing. XD

And the interrupts are only from certain skills. But, Axe just has more interrupt skills than sword does.

Re: Guild Wars 2

Heroes are where it's at... my team of heroes are pretty much unstoppable. It helps that the hero AI can be taken advantage of for certain builds, mostly for Mesmer.

Re: Guild Wars 2

Yes... Gwen is pretty good as a mesmer.... Can lock down almost any mob with the correct build.

[Raydeus]

Re: Guild Wars 2

Gwen? Really? o_O

She just gave me a shirt or something for giving her a new flute and some flowers while running around killing mobs with her.

Didn't know she could actually fight.



Edit > And I need to look for info on Heroes because I didn't know you could level them up and stuff.

Re: Guild Wars 2

XD. Gwen is the reason why Ascalon fell, even though it was rightfully the Charrs in the first place. Gwen also has grown up a bit in EOTN.
