Default Are you a treasure hunter or a farmer?

Im bored so i decided to make this thread to bore all you aswell...In this game i belive that people that have played through a few times have the option to call themselves one of two things. they are either a farmer, or a treasure hunter, I consider myself a treasure hunter. because everyday i come on these forums. look for rumors or hotspots. then go and find them. i also do a lotta searchin for stuff on my own... and well pretty much i just wanted to know what everyone else considers themselves to be .

I'm still looking for that Superior Absorption, who isn't? I'm still working some characters through but I also do some farming on the side. So, I guess I'm a farmer.

I'm just farming...getting money to upgrade my shield collection.
And if I *actually* find any good item, that I don't want it ---> GWGuru Auction here we go!

Today I did 5 runs to the Ruins of HoH with as MM with a barrage group.
Only thing I got was the Bulwark *does naked chicken happy dance*

I farm for treasures. Got a couple superior absorbtions, and enough superior vigors for all my characters with some extras to sell, plus major vigors and other superiors.

I don't power-farm but I kill easy stuff quickly enough. Chest hunting gets dull after your fourth group in a row doesn't get out of Rastigan's range.

Guess you could call me a 'material farmer'. Its nice when you get something nice drop but I cant remember the last time I actually sold something. More times than not I give stuff away to guildies that need it. But farming for materials allows me to get the things I need ie sup runes, armor etc. I have only 1 treasure and that is the healing ankh that my doppleganger dropped when I ascended my monk. I keep it as a trophy cuz my warrior and my ranger ascended sooo easy. I was shocked when I had to try a 2nd time on my monk to beat my doppleganger. Plus he only dropped for my monk.

Well, I've finished the game with 3 characters, fixing to finish with my 4th and still have chars I'm working up, so definitely a quester. But....I also do ettin runs, and UW/FOW/Sorrows for the treasure. So guess that makes me a treasure hunting quester with a penchant for farming..or a really pitiful person with no life; take your pick

I'm a treasure hunter because Guild wars doesn't have corn, barley, and oats, nor Cows you can milk.

I used to be a treasure hunter - I'd spend my gold acquired from selling items on keys and open chests. I just love opening chests and see what I wind up getting.

Then after a while I realized my processings from selling my findings wasn't enough to maintain my key purchases I became a material farmer - salvaging everything and selling those to players or material traders.

If i do happen to farm a couple of things or open a few chests, its just on the way to getting to another town, or getting a quest done...


And thats why I'm poor
