I suppose you got the first installment, Prophecies?

If you are going to PvP a lot, get Factions
If you are going to PvE a lot, get Nightfall

If possible, get both

You will have a greater array of skills to choose from for PvP, and some nice additions for PvE (Heroes in Nightfall, Alliances in Factions)

Factions is not just PvP. Sure, it has more PvP possibilities than Nightfall, but it also rocks as a PvE game. You can level up really fast and you don't need to do annoying side quests right from the beginning just to rack up some Sunspear points.

I think it all comes down to do you like playing by yourself, or in a group? Nightfall has heroes, which are a huge help but are also (in my opinion) one of the only reasons Nightfall is any good. Factions, on the other hand, has missions that try to go for a bit more teamwork and I think overall the game plays better too. It's all about personal preference though.... some people like Nightfall, others like Factions.

i think factions is easyer 2 level up on and has a better story line and is much funner with the luxon and kurzic aliances battlng each outher in a sort of pvp which u acses from a kurzic or luxon guild you dont need a pvp expantion pack to be able to do pvp

i hav a level 20 r/rt ranger ritualist from factions and i have done a mission to be able to get into nightfall with it and if u get the outher expantion u can end up geting all three games and i find that some website sell guild wars at a much cheaper price than in the shops nd they are quite reliable

i would be quite happy to help you in the game pre-searing with a new charr or in ascalon after searing

if you want help add me to you friends nd maby join the guild i am in they are very helpfull nd funny

add -missile marksman lvl 20 (factions nightfall) -armoured asassin?lvl 19(factions) -underwurld warrior lvl 18 (prophersies) -melee markwell lvl 4(nightfall)

Wrong. If you're going to PvE, get Nightfall.
If you're going to PvP, get Nightfall.

better skills PvP wise (playing monk is pretty much impossible without Nightfall), better storyline PvE wise.

Yeah well, I don't PvP really

Good luck on deciding Chaosdreams, just keep reading the threads on this forum, you will figure it out eventually.

Looking at their style of writing, Chaosdreams and missile marksman seem to be a perfect match. Team up, guys!

Xenex Xclame · Apr 11, 2007, 03:56 PM // 15:56

Chaosdream : if you want to take your current characters that you made in prophecies, you will have to link it, it is also better to link in the most cases as it means you will be able to go to and fro between the continents.So i would suggest linking them.(So add to current account)

Remember you only get this option once.
