Guild Wars

Heh. How is Ascalon being ruined any different to now?

I'm actually wondering if the Asura in EotN is the first sign that the Guild Wars franchise has jumped the shark....

GW2 is geared more towards bringing GW closer to other MMO's. I'm not sure how it'll play out.

The main disappointment reading the preview was that it makes all of the GW series largely unimportant since the world gets tossed anyway. (But, this time, by dragons!)
 

Also, I wouldn't say it's jumped the shark (okay, mainly because I hate the phrase :), but GW2 will be a different animal than GW. It might be a great game, but it'll be different.

It will be nice to be able to jump though!
 



Yeah I've been playing it since it first came out. Well, like a month after it first came out. Wait until you hit some of the missions in Nightfall, now those are hard lol. If anyone needs/wants help, hit me up if you catch me online. Tagret Artalen

Saddest day of my life= nerf of Thunderhead Keep.


**edit** GWEN was fun, but stupidly easy. The final boss....we beat without a full group.
 

This thread got me to go pick it up. Having great fun playing Prophecies with one character with the wife and another character with my 8 year old. Dang, gotta go by a third computer now so that we can all play together.

I've never had much interest in MMORPGs but there's enough story here to keep things interesting.
 

DMFTodd, sounds nice (playing with the family I mean). My offer stands for anyone who needs it. I have 7 level 20's (necro, mesmer, monk, warrior, ranger, rit, and ele) so odds are I got something that can help.

what was the nerf of thunderhead keep? I only picked up proph, after beating nightfall.

My sad news with the 5 hr trial of GWen was working hard and finally finishing the whole norn be a wolf/bear/raven quest cycle, to finally clear it from my quest list (and reach the 4th rank for norn) Only to accidently accept it again. Until I actually have my own copy (after x-mas one way or another) the quest will hang about cluttering up my list.

Not to mention getting beaten by Bison and more irritatingly Mhelmo in the fighting tornament. Without enchantment removal M. just regenerated his way out of my ele's damage.

Thread Necromancy!

I got this as a belated Christmas present about 2 weeks ago. I've had a lot of fun so far.

Actualy working 4 characters, though only 1 seriously at the moment.

A Warrior/Monk (Meloran Avenro, my primary), who is set to start the second mission.
A Mesmer/Elementalist, who needs to level up before she can do the first mission.
A Ranger, who I'm going to slowly try for the Defender of Asceleon title (Level 20 pre-searing).
An Elementalis (Who was going for the no death title but died at level 2, but I'll keep her around for a while).

I only have Prophecies:GOTY at the moment (btw, anyone else who has it, use the /bonus command, you get cool stuff), but that's been more than enough for me so far.

A friend got me into his guild. It's fairly small, but we're hoping to grow it.

I've paired up with my dad and a friend earlier, but they're way ahead of me (I'm level 12, they're not).

It's a lot of fun, and easy to just pick up and play for a short time if you just want to beat stuff up.

As for soloing and being overmatched, I found changing up skills helps for that. I was aiming to go sword warrior, but some of the axe skills are nice, and synergize well with most of the other skills I've aquired so far. I find I rarely use a monk skill, but that might change with me aquiring Restore Life.

I'm normaly not a big PvP fan, but it just seems like it would be a lot of fun in Guild Wars, so I'm looking forward to more of it (I got to try it onces in 2 Searings, and the time I tried, it was 4 humans vs 1 and 3 henchmen. We won 20-3.
