So I did too much pvp while playing GW. Too much I didnt even finish Prophecies with 1249 hours of gameplay. Anyways, got nostalgia from this campaing due to playing it on trial.

As I started playing in 2007, with NF, I would like to see how the game was in 2005, and I am going to do the next:

-Start a char (probably mesmer) and get the legendary defender of Ascalon. This would take me aprox. 3 months making daily missions.

-After this, finishing LDoA, I am going to finish Prophecies with no heroes, only prophecies skills, and also only Prophecies weapons and armor.

Anyone wanna try with me?

Cool idea. I'm not interested in doing the LDoA but I may be with you after that.

If you want to play like 2005, you have to do the LDoA with Death-Leveling though. :P

If you want the true prophecies experience, you really shouldn't do LDoA. You wouldn't normally hit level 20 until much much further into the game and so you'll spoil the early stuff by being massively overleveled. Imo some of the most iconic/memorable moments of prophecies are the earlier, low leveled stuff (in particular, one quest from Piken Square).

I will create 2 characters, one for plain campaign and one for LDoA. Pretty dumb thing not thinking about being lvl 20 :/

If you really want to do this, also consider there was only one Xunlai Pane, no material storage, and no equipment bags.

Slightly OT, but I looked through the Game Updates archive for some interesting milestones in GW's history during 2005. You can use it to consider things you can or can not do if trying to mimic early Prophecies.
