Help me please! Im getting bored of guildwars... but I dont want to. Need to get some kick in the butt to go do something.

I mostly play on my necro and has done all 3 campaigns with him, + the 100% Elona map title

I got bored by mapping, got nothing left to do, and I find it boring to create new chars since I already seen everything across GW...

Have you gotten any other titles? *shrug* PvP or just take some time away from GW for a while.

I find a little hiatus does wonders for the longevity of the game. That's one reason I bought Guild Wars, and will continue to buy it until they stop making chapters. The fact that there is no monthly fee and your accounts do not suffer from inactivity is a huge draw for me. It means I can go play Mu on a private server for a month or two then come back and it's like a whole new game. I also find that the Elite content can be very satisfying. Then again I came over form Diablo 2 so I'm also a loot fanatic. The more loot I have the more I like it so, while I tend not to farm, I do relish coming across new valuable goodies.

Taking breaks is always a good thing. I took a nice 3 month vacation from the game, and it really renewed my enjoyment of the game. But, if you are determined to keep playing, I'd suggest working on other titles or getting into PvP.

get rank 12 or every pvp title, i think it will be worth the effort

Deleet · Jan 30, 2007, 09:45 PM // 21:45

Join a PvP guild.

Thats almost impossible.. as you told us you completed all 3 campains and full carthographer titles...

But you dont have skill hunter, Wishdom, etc etc...

You said you dont want to create other chars because you have seen everything.. I bet you havent seen your own made ranger/warrior/derv or whatever defeating Abadon... I just cant believe it doesnt interests you! Good luck though

Thomas.knbk · Jan 30, 2007, 09:52 PM // 21:52

I'm in the same situation, if it weren't for my guild I'd step away from the game totally for a few months and play something else... However, I'm playing other games and playing them with guildies and diversified my guild over to other games

Either Guild Wars will be back, better than ever or it will be gone and we all move on

I love when people are bored, others just refer to PvP....

If your bored, do stuff you've never done before, like all of UW, FoW, Tombs, even try getting far in HA (might be hard without a good guild). Heck, even try solo builds for areas, running, or create your own builds. Join a better guild, be creative.

Theres alot more to game than meets the eye...I think.

Mournblade · Jan 30, 2007, 09:58 PM // 21:58

Make a new character and live in Pre-Searing Ascalon for as long as you can. Help other people with quests and stuff. =)

Aye, thats a challenge in and of itself

I just took a break for 3 weeks or so, it was getting boring for me as well. Did it back before Factions came out for about 2 months, both spaces worked very well. I'm back and kicking now

Here are some recommendations that keep the game "fresh" for me:

1. Try Soloing without Heroes or Henchmen. Start easy by trying to complete some of the mid-game missions with your necro. You'll learn many new techniques (and will likely cause you to change your build multiple times) such that you'll probably say to yourself..."Wow, I thought I knew everything that I needed to know about my necro - I now realize I only scratched the surface." If you get to the point where you can solo the Dunes of Despair mission, you know that you've really accomplished something that few have done.

2. Try the Tomb of Primeval Kings, Urgoz's Warren, The Deep and Domain of Anguish. You may have already done this once or twice, but I still find being a competent necromancer in these areas to be one of the hardest things to master. It's also one of the best adrenaline rushes in the game, PvE wise.

3. Dabble in PvP for PvE. If you're not interested in PvPing, doing Fort Aspenwood and Alliance Battles is still a load of fun. The mass chaos that normally erupts is something that is always a blast, if you can get past the leechers, etc.

I find myself rotating between those three, and haven't gotten bored yet. I think you're at the point that many people get to - you've experienced everything "new" in the game, and now the true enjoyment is truly becoming "good" at what you do.

It's because the people who usually make the "I'm bored" threads make it obvious that they are PVE players who make no mention of playing PVP.

Get into GvG.

tre_peter · Jan 30, 2007, 10:39 PM // 22:39

Try to get legendary survivor. I'm not bored but I tried to get survivor for a while, and boy it gets your heart beating.

EDIT: You'll need a new character for this, but I love new characters :P

Dirty Savage · Jan 31, 2007, 01:54 AM // 01:54

If you're truly bored with the game then you should really just take a break for a while. That's why I really love this game, because it is free to play and your account doesn't get closed for inactivity. This way you can take breaks without fear of wasting money, etc. I've been playing since October of 2005, I own all three campaigns, yet I HAVE FINISHED NONE OF THEM!!! Why? Because, with a full-time job and my hectic social life, I don't have a lot of time to play. It helps that now it's winter here and staying indoors is a good thing, but still, breaks are good.

Since I haven't finished any of the games I can usually find something to do to renew my interests. For example, this past Friday I finally ascended the first character I ever made, a ranger. Then I found myself in the Dragon's Lair which had an exit to this place called The Tomb of Primeval Kings. Walked in there and found a ton of people just BEGGING me to join their group. Which totally knocked me for a loop as it's always been tough going trying to get a group for anything! I didn't know anything about the mission, only that I had to have Barrage, a pet and either favorable winds or winnowing. And i've been farming there now for the last few hours, having fun and making decent money - something I've never had before!

Ummm, what was the question again?

Help! you are not alone nor has this happen for the first time!

Quote:

This isnt anything new, it has happened with GWP pre-factions and similarly with factions after a few months of release.

Strangely enough, guild wars is one of those "MMOs" that players get bored of playing after a while which can mean 2 things:

1)Lack of addiction factions.
2)Lack of replayability.

However this fits with the bussiness model of Anet: inactive all you want after buying.

As always, friends are all that i play for/with these days. Otherwise theres little else in the game for me at least.

This is of the rare chances i get to quote myself since i am too bored to be writing a different response for the same thing of the same kind of thread over and over and over and over again.

Responses that calls for PvP may not always be valid for Players who choose to play PvE exclusively. They are not so dumb as to fail to notice that there is PvP element in the game, its merely because of choosing not to PvP. Is that so hard for players to understand? Agrue all you want, do we want to be dictating how others should be playing the game.

Do you see things like this?

Player A: "I like to play PvP but unlocking skills is so slow and i dont want to buy skills packs. HELP!"

Player B: "GO AND PLAY PVE U NUMBNUTS!"
