Lost points and a few basic questions - Guild Wars Forums

Jag ReDDoG · Feb 01, 2009, 02:09 AM // 02:09

Hello,tonite i played a quest didnt complete it because of time and my partners had to go.I went from level 14 to 15.I didnt spend those yet because of the quest we were doing at the time.When i logged back in they were gone.

?Anyway to use them now?Wait till lvl 16 and deal with it or what?

1-Basic one-when i try and join a mission-quest in the search party menu i cant join a existing mission instead it puts me in liking im waiting on other people.only way to join other peoples missions is to whisper for an invite.Is this the correct way to join other peoples missions?

2-(currently in Lions Arch)Should i do smaller(500 xp) missiopns until i reach lvl 20?Alot of people at thispoint are 20s and dont think i can make it thru till the end being a 15.They are probably right.And they are usually nice about it.I can still find parties to play with but its getting harder to finish some of the quest.
Im W/R with a decnt loadout as far as amour and battleaxe ect.
Thanks for any and all help.Peace

Assuming you are talking about Attribute Points, yes spend them now. You can change them whenever you are in a town/outpost.

1- Yes that is one way to join a party. You can also 'self-invite'.

2- Actually, being 15 by LA is a good thing. If you see 20, its usually because they were already 20 or they came from a different campaign.

You probably spent those points, as you cannot lose attribute points, and as for your second question, just keep playing, you're far from the end of the game

You didn't lose your points hon. Hit the K button to bring up your attribute points/skills. There you can change them anytime you want.

The points can be changed whenever you are in a town or outpost so use when u get

The points thing has been addressed,

As for Lions Arch, if you're playing a Prophecies character (coming from Ascalon) then level 15 is a great level to reach by this point. I was level 13 by the time I reached LA the first time.

You've still got a fair bit of the game to go and you'll reach level 20 in good time by playing through the story and primary quests

The lvl20s you see in LA are either:
Players who have progressed much further in Prophecies and have come back to the city
Players from other chapters (Nightfall or Factions) who have travelled to LA from their own storyline,
Players with Eye of the North who have progressed in that expansion and have come back to the city

Another reason why there are lots of level 20's in LA is that it's one of the main trading towns in GW, especially in District 1.

As for doing the side quests, it doesn't hurt to do them. Be sure to do any quests that give skills as quest rewards.

Thanks for all of the help and advice.I just logged back in and my attirbute points are gone that i got for leveling to 15.I didnt get a chance to spend them like i said.
I can live with not having them i guess but will it affect me later on?I mean after lvl 20 you dont get any more points that help you right?

i double checked my skill and attributes menu and they are the same before i hit 15.Weird.Not sure if logging out wrong or what happened but they are not there to spend.

Thanks once again.

BTW theres a quest i think in eye of the north that has like 10,000 xp instead of the usual 1,000.I guessing but you need all lvl 20 to complete that .lol

I think you may be getting a little mixed up here

I see you have eye of the north

You can go there from level 10..your skills are buffed as a level 20 so when you return to lions arch they are taken off

So yes you can do the char quest for 10k exp and take your heros and hench with you

Its not that hard as..the char range from level 8 to 20 and come in groups so do that for your xp and also the ones in eotn when this is done to get more xp....

so even tho you are 15 in lions arch ..your 20 in eye of north skillswise

This would probably be right.

Attribute points do not disappear and are reusable. At lvl 15 you should have 95 points total. If you head into an outpost and set all your attributes to 0, you will see that you have the correct number of points.

The "Spend Attribute Points" button that pops up under your experience bar, is just a reminder to use them.
