The guild I was in sort of fell apart and i was thinking about starting playing it again anyone have a guild? Where has Lews been?

I joined Patient Relaxed People. pRp.

Valor, maker of the Ranger Spike, is the leader.

I have about 2343 ( about ) fame, and have all skills unlocked at around 400,000 faction.

I still play it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Well, I'm still new... If anyone wants to find me, my character's name is "Sophia Rynn". At least I think it is... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" /> Yea, thats how I spelt it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I have a question though: what is the maximum level you can attain in this game? I've only heard of people talking about their level 20 characters and I'm hoping it goes further than that.

Killerzzz

Level 20 is the max but then you still have TONS of skills to get. Because the game is about player skill and definitely not about character level. As you get lots of skills you'll just have fun creating different characters builds and trying to find a way to counter something someone else did.

So despite the low level cap, there's still a lot of things to keep you busy.

I finally got it all unlocked. =)



Msg Death of Discworld, in game. Thats me!

So am I still waiting
For this world to stop hating
Can't find a good reason
Can't find hope to believe in

I want GW <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" /> I can buy, but can't afford the system specs yet.
I've been waiting since it came out, but couldn't earn the real life gold peices I need to buy it, and a pc system able to run it on.

Altho this about to change, in a month or 2 tho <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" /> Finnaly my training is over, and this is my second month full pay, (not payed out yet for last month) so by the time I got enough to buy a high end pc system and GW + enough to cover may daily expenses etc. I want to make sure I won't be a lonely wanderer in the vast world.

I've always been a multiplayer guy, DD and BD are the rare cases of SP games I finished.

Keep this thread alive, so I can learn while I check my bank account frequently.

Hi everyone. It's been a while since I have been here last time.
Glad to see everyone is still around.

I have a question to those mostly veteran Guild Wars players. After spending some time with the game, does it stil keep you interested, does it still keep you involved?

I was the one who purchased both WoW and Guild Wars at the same tme, but prefered WoW and skipped GW entirely (ok I have a couple of lvl 1-4chars, that's it).

As of now, I am almost ready to cancel my subscription to WoW and maybe switch to GW.

What I dont like in endgame WoW is, that you can most of the time do just 3 things: go grinding for some loot (money), what is boring, go into instances, and every instance takes about 3-4 hours (nonstop) to complete and finally get into Player versus Player, which is carried mostly in Battlegrounds, where one BG session is somewhat 30 min, but the queue times are 2-4 hours.

If Guild Wars different? And please describe, what aspects of the game still keep you interested? Getting another cool looking weapon or another piece of armor or getting another rank in PVP as in WoW, or is there anything else whats interesting about GW?

Is GW suitable for more casual player? How long are lategame instance sessions? I understand, there isn't such term as high lvl in GW, as you can reach 20 fairly quickly, but I think there still is something that makes longer playing lvl 20 characters different from lvl 20 newbies (skills, outfits maybe?)

Ahh, and if anyone interested to get information about WoW, just ask me, I will do my best to help.

Lews is your guild still going strong? I am thinking about starting this one up again and dont really have anyone to play with. I have a lvl 20 Elementalist monk but she hasnt ascended or whatever yet so I would need some help getting to endgame and getting some of the uber skills, let me know if youre interested, I have alot of MMO PvP experience so I could be helpful.

Let me know.

pRp sort of broke apart. A few people are still in it, but not as many as before.

Now I am in an old guild. I was friends with them in Beta, and they've recently come back. I think we are still looking for a few new people, but just go to The Fianna and just ask.

We only play PvP once a week now, sceduled, but it helps us stay together, and we play CS:S and BF2 alot as well.

*shrug*

Anyone still plays this, got bored bought GW Factions this weekend. Have a lvl 11 Elementalist/Necromancer.

I am buying factions this weekend.

Want to join my new guild? we primarily do PvE but we want to try to do PvP. they are old friends of mine im trying to get to pvp more.

I wont be able to play for like a week, but then I can.

I've never done PvP before, always did PvE in those few free mmmorpg I played, now I did play 5 beginner battles . I enjoyed PvP.

I do think it would be hard to join your guild as I'm on the European servergroup <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

PvP in GW is very safe. Its not like items break or you lose XP when you die. Its a great game for beginners to PvP. The game I am currently waiting for (Darkfall) is not so nice. When you die, there is full loot, i.e. everything on you inv and equipment can be looted.

Nothing against GW, the PvP is pretty good.

Can be or will be? sounds very harsh, is there some sort of compensations like cheap items or high rewards for winning?

No rewards really, I liken Darkfall to the Anti-WoW.

There will be no instances, no safe zones, no uber items that you have to have to be a viable high end toon. Equipment will be more generic from what I understand, and the best items will be made by crafters not mob drops.

I love PvP but once you get into High End players it is really drama-ey. I decided to take a break, but a bunch of my friends are still in the top 20 guilds.
