Getting ZERO XP - Page 2 - Guild Wars Forums

egads · May 13, 2005, 04:50 AM // 04:50

As I said in the other thread you posted (

), I'd say I've played for 80 hours since I was at the point you are, and I'm not nearly finished. Seriously, you're at the beginning of the game. Go play on the actual missions rather than questing if you want to get to new areas.

i shall edit this spoiler and simply tell you to go to the norther wall

Madjik · May 13, 2005, 04:50 AM // 04:50

im pretty sure he's not in pre sear. The breach is post. Your over looking a specific quest.

I have about 7 missions left to complete.
some are going to have me searching high and low (they dont have the green star).
is this really worth playing more ?

XD

Talk to Sir Tydus.

Quite simply.. you arent anywhere CLOSE to IMAGINING the end of the game.

Now that being said, have you done any of the cooperative missions? They begin at ascalon with the quest for "The Great Northern wall". You should begin these. Remember to read your mission and quest notes for info on where to go next. I wont spoil unless you ask.

QFE for those who CANT READ.

See my post in your other thread, please.

It looks like he hasn't started on the main missions.

Nah, you can't (check the map). You're probably thinking of the Northlands.

Sekkira · May 13, 2005, 05:43 AM // 05:43

Dude, you've barely started the game.

Freyas · May 13, 2005, 05:46 AM // 05:46

I merged two threads on this same topic.

Uhh, dude, you're level 10 fighting level 3 creeps. You expect to get credit for that?

Mirrasi · May 13, 2005, 06:52 AM // 06:52

I think you're just confused between missions and quests is all. The Northern Wall, as said above, will start your first mission and they progress from there. You're just starting

There is no Breach in pre-sear, only The Northlands. In pre-sear, Ascalon hadn't been breached yet, as the wall was still intact.

To the OP: The level difference between you and your victims should be no more than 5 to still get xp. If you're L10, L5 mobs should still give you small amounts of xp. Don't waste your time fighting the 3s and 4s, as they are just an annoyance to someone your level. I just herd them to the nearest NPC and keep going, never looking back.

Shadowdaemon · May 13, 2005, 02:05 PM // 14:05

well you are either slow headed, or lying, cause i have never had a lack of people to talk to, especially in ascalon, are you tryin to talk out on the quests to the henchmen or something, man i am gonna be thinkin of you and laughing for hours

Zubey · May 13, 2005, 02:23 PM // 14:23

I don't believe Monk Here has even started the main storyline.

Throughout the game, you'll want to do missions (which are different from quests).

They're marked on the main map with an icon that looks like a shield. Go to the zone and get a team, then click "Enter mission".

ChristopherKee · May 13, 2005, 03:59 PM // 15:59

If you have not crossed the snowy mountains yet, you are no where near the end of the game. Put it this way, when you hit max level 20 then you will be about 50% done with all the things you need to do.

If you like xp, there are plenty of level 20+ mobs to fight with once you progress far enough in the missions (not quests missions)

You should really try reading the story as it progresses. It's a really good story and it pretty much gives you an idea of what comes next, or where you need to go. This game is probably the most strait forward game I have ever played, if you have ADD or something and can't think or explore than maybe counter-strike is better for you.

Dumahim Ashenbane · May 13, 2005, 04:14 PM // 16:14

I think he may be missing the "Enter Mission" button.

Lewick · May 13, 2005, 05:18 PM // 17:18

You don't ***have*** to do the missions. They are fun for content and they're worth 1000 (+1000 for bonus) experience each. However, there are only a few missions you MUST complete to gain access to new areas. Everything up to ascension can be explored and you can march your way all the way across the continent, opening new zones and cities. I opened up all of the pre-ascension cities prior to doing the missions, and had a blast doing so.

Monk, you need to explore the map more thoroughly. Find the zone lines for new zones. If you're an explorer (which it sounds like you are) keep exploring. As you move to newer and more difficult zones and cities, your henchmen increase in level and relative strength. They grow with you.

Monk Here · May 13, 2005, 07:21 PM // 19:21

how do i get a 'mission'. yes i have been doing quests.
ive been to the northern wall, but only got quests from there.
