Long time until GW2. I agree with OP that there is not enough grind here to worry about for a single character player.

If you have multiple characters, however, then multiply whatever grind there is by the number of characters you have. Ten is a good round number, but many players have more characters than that.

Oh, sorry. I keep forgetting the fact that all we do on this so-called "Fan site" is worshipping Anet no matter what half-ass PoC they throw at us.

No wonder the game is how it is today. But thanks for the reminder.

Good luck leaving Istan in less than 5 hours. Even if you manage to do it, I highly doubt you'd make it through Vabbi in 5 hours, or what left of the time you have.

No need to preach. I knew better and don't buy GWEN. But it doesn't mean I can't say how "sucky" it is.

Haha. Ok, ok. I DON'T have GW:EN yet but I'm not looking forward to the "Farming," or "Grinding..." Whatever you want to call it. Because, for me, grinding DOES exist. Anything I don't wanna' do, but I have to do to have more Fun in Another Part of the game is, for me, a Grind-Like experience.

I ADMIT, even if the title just takes playing through the game I will be slightly upset and bored. You know why? Because I'd rather be doing other things in Guild Wars! (Mostly Running.)

See, I don't understand posts where someone can say: "Yet your intellectual self, doesnt seem to grasp that those pve only skills arent critical to anything and they are just as effective at lower ranks."

When...guess what...They're NOT "just as effective at lower ranks."

You see, what I like to do in guild wars most is to Race other players to Droknar's Forge (and, I'm pretty good at it. ;D) BUT once I saw gwen, I noticed ONE SKILL I wanted the game for. Yeah. ONE SKILL for the whole game. "I Am Unstoppable!" the Anti KD Shout...Because it will make my racing faster.

Now here's the problem. I have...3 characters I want that skill on. I want a High rank so that it lasts long enough to get through the groups of KDing monsters well. So, what will I need to do when I get the game? FIRST I'll play through it with three characters (30 hours I wish I was doing something else...Maybe I'll just hire one of you guys who love the actual mission parts of the game to do it for me. :P).

That's what I'm not looking forward to. Whether it's a "grind" or just "playing the game" is not the issue for me, and people like me. I just want ONE skill that'll take a WHOLE LOT LONGER TO GET than if I could just BUY THE SKILL AT A SKILL GUY. All to be faster than you when I race you.

Ooook? So I get that everyone has different things they like in the game, and you probably think what I like is stupid, but I just....don't wanna' play another game. Haha! I wanna' race, and this is NECESSARY to be the FASTEST!

Lol. BTW: Sorry about the caps. I just use those because I was too lazy to bold. I'm not really yelling.

I'll take my time getting the Asura title, and I don't care about the Ebon Vanguard one. If you don't want to grind for the titles then don't. But don't come here and whine about it, I think we're all sick of reading it (and posts like this one too, so I'll shut up now).

Look. You prove exactly my point:

I agree with that. Titles should be for Prestige. That's why I shouldn't need to grind titles for skills! Titles should be for a fun way to show off your Guild Wars accomplishments, they shouldn't be something you need to actually have better characters in Guild Wars!

EXACTLY! The titles SLAY ALL YOUR TIME (lol)! That's not what we should need to do to get some really badly reskinned armors (yeah, they didn't even model a single piece, I swear! How lazy.

) and some skills.

Seems like nobody can talk about GW:EN without either calling people names or telling others their opinion doesn't matter.
