Need some advice... - Guild Wars Forums

Rotgut The Unholy · Oct 29, 2007, 07:34 AM // 07:34

Hey, I got guildwars on its first release, played through ascension, then stopped for about a year, picked up factions and enjoyed it but quit again shortly after and then came back to the game around nightfall and strictly PVP'd

Point is, what am I missing out on with GWEN? Im not sure where to start over now, I'd like to delete all my chars and start fresh with 1 main guy and Im not sure what campaign or such, thanks.

PvE I'm assuming.

If you don't own Nightfall buy that for the Heroes. If you own all three consider buying Gwen, since it offers several benefits.

My favorite character is a Monk, since I can instantly group and I'm 'acceptable' in every area of the game + many specialized farming builds.

If you're making one main character, pick a class that suits you, then a campaign that makes your character look good in your eyes. You'll regret deleting your characters at a later date, though. Birthdays/change of using the same class over and over.

If i may advise something start in factions or Nightfall your quick lvl 20/200 you have hero's what make playing easier. Pop all the free chests in Elona (12).
You may get some nice golds and 20k off money from your first run. (from back till start)
And GW:EN you not missing much if you play dedicated you can do it in 11/15 hours (storyline).
Don't get me wrong GW:EN has nice enviorment but it lacks content and isn't pleasant to play.

you can compare it with popcorn ^^ they pop if you make them.
The corn opens up.
Sorry is just a word we use in our guild.
But there are treasure in Elona that are free to open 12 of them if you open the last one in torment you have a big change for some better drop from the one in istan island.

Believe him when he says the last one first. I've personally tested this. I got golds at the end and purples at the beginning as opposed to the other way around.

if you only want to play PvP then don;t bother with GW:EN its mainly PvE, very few new skills came out for PvP.

Don't delete characters either otherwise you lose a birhtday minipet, which is good for some cash depending on what you get.

NIghtfal is easiest to play with the addition of heroes, with factions a close second, getting up to level 20 in both is relatively easy.

There are a lot of fun things in GW:EN for the PVE players and if you want to play PvE its a good addition
