Default Something fun to do in GW

What do you guys like to do in GW when you get bored, that doesn't involve farming or going after a title, by yourself. Cause I wanna play but I don't want to play by myself, I just wanna find a group doing something and tag along. So what do you guys like to do? My guild is inactive I only stay in it because I don't know lol, so guild is out as an option.

Edit: Does anyone wanna play GW with me?

After getting my ele survivor 3 I'm going to start running her through the campaigns for the protector titles.

I don't know if missions are your thing, but I'm always up for company.

Running around in circles in your guild hall, or gathering your guild in a circle in your guild hall and share stories.

Basically anything in your guild hall.

Lol I've done the circle thing, just by myself :/ haha I only have one friend to play GW with and when shes not playing I get bored

But to Loli: Yeah missions are the reason I bought this game I try playing WoW but I get bored cause I feel like I'm playing a pointless game, its like okay in GW I get to save the world and I feel there is a reason for doing things, in WoW I just get lost :/ lol I'll add you so we can play.

IGN is Articus Red by the way, which campaign are you gonna start off with? I've done Proph with my ele, but I got to get him through Nightfall and Factions as well.

Acting like a retard in vent, becoming a sarcastic twit, harassing others, slaking people from Guru, harassing them, bringing randomly horrible builds into RA like Vow of Silence so the monk can't heal you, 55ing in RA (with a good 55 build), starting arguements in RA and Great Temple and Lions. Ah so much fun!

^^Here Here!

Personally, I like to just follow people I don't know around the major towns when I'm bored. You'd be amazed how freaked out a character can look without changing the facial features of the avatar.

Otherwise, I'm not really sure theres that much to do. Really, when I'm feeling like you, are I either turn of the computer or look around for interesting goings on in the towns. I suppose you could also go do the beggining missions with brand new players and help them out.

She hasn't got anything yet She's cooped up in Gunnar's Hold right now until I let her out :X

I have all campaigns except GWEN right now, if we don't want to wait for my ele to get req3 my monk still needs Elona and Cantha

I'll add you too, I won't be on for a couple more days but I'll talk to you when I am. ^^

Or if feel devious, go into Northern Wall with an MM with veratas aura, get 10 minions, contemplation it off and watch the fireworks. LOLZ. I am so evil.

I like browsing through guild wars wiki for elites or skills I may not have noticed earlier, then trying to base builds around them. Sometimes I'll go to a mission I've already beaten and try and get on a PUG to kill some time, other times I'll sit around in a major town and answer any questions I see in global chat...

In PvE:

Take the Undead Hordes quest, go outside with friends. Run screaming into the mobs.
In NM, you run screaming in and kill them all. Bash bash bash!
In HM, you run screaming in and maybe get wiped. Bleed bleed bleed.
Go back to town, abandon quest, repeat.
Fun either way.

Opening the gate in Nolani (so many ways that can be fun.)

Oh, and Rotscale. Killing Rotscale and dancing naked upon his dragon isle singing "neener neener" That's fun!

Tricking a friend into doing the Wilds mission with me. He hates it. Cries like a girl if you can actually get him in there. Very entertaining.

Thirsty River is great fun with friends.

The only non-Tyria thing I can think of that's on the same level is the play at the end of the All's Well That Ends Well quest. Though it's not as fun to do over and over.

Running around to find wurms. Not the ones you ride, the ones that pop up out of the ground and knock everyone down. (Dunno why, just always really liked those wurms.) Finding the wurm breeding ground warning signs the first time in gwen had me downright giddy.

A lot of the things that struck me as impossibly hard at first in Tyria are the things I like best now.


In PvP:

Not much, since I don't PvP often at all. But anything done with pals where no one gets carried away and pissy. 1v1 scrimmage with a friend can be interesting for seeing exactly how conditions and effects stack and such.


All of the above really depends on friends. Can't think of much left in GW that strikes me as fun like that without doing it with friends. I'm not talking about guilds. Guilds come and go for a lot of people. I'm talking about friends.


GL to ya, hope you find something fun!

Oh, and it's fun to watch what happens when Malice goes random in towns and take bets on how long before his ban sets in, how long before he gets a new "fan," how long before someone figures out it's him and starts asking him for PC's and such, etc.

I'm on the campaign still as well, I'm at Vlox's Falls though right now, if you need help with your quests just let me know. Also, I wouldn't mind tagging along with your monk in Elona and Cantha I will talk to you in a few days then when you log on! Until then, I will take peoples advice and I'm going to see what other interesting things people have to say in some major cities.

No ban yet must try harder. Kamadan tommorow be there, or be sqaure.

If you ever want someone just to explore or play with my IGN is Fae Orchid. Feel free to add me, and we can play together when I'm on.

I usually just quest for fun, or help people with missions/quests. I don't believe in titles usually, but I think I might go for cartographer since I'd like to explore the landcape anyway...

I like to find a town where people are arguing something, doesn't matter what, and take both sides of the argument in order to create an even more heated debate. Then, I sit back and watch. Fun stuff.
