How long to rush through GWEN? - Guild Wars Forums

w00t! · Oct 24, 2009, 03:09 PM // 15:09

Ignoring any double entendre, how long do you think it would take for a non-Hero'd Necromancer (Tyria and Cantha only) to make it through GWEN in order to get the end-game item? Can this even be done, or do they arbitrarily stop you part way through?

I purchased a couple of $0.99 GWEN pre-order packs at Target last week for my second and third accounts in order to get the special weapons. I have exactly 10 hours of play time and was wondering whether I could rush through if I only took primaries and ran as much as possible. Any ideas?

can you even do that? i mean, still use the pre-order previews for the 10 hour play time?

if it actually works, 10 hours sounds about right if you are a decent player.

Bah, you're right. Just tested out what you mentioned. The 10 hour trial is for the three campaigns, not including GWEN. Access to GWEN was just during the Sneak Peek Weekend.

At least I got my bonus weapons for my pre-sear character.

WTS 10 hour trial to a GoldFarmer 100k!

Thanks for the quick response.

your reasoning for rushing is for a 5-10k green?

Naw, my interest was really of the Mt. Everest variety. I'm a 4+ year player, so I'm not really hurting for cash.

you can make it through EOTN in 8-10hrs if you know what to do and get some decent help for a cppl missions..... although that's a moot point with the trial key. :/

Well, finding help is not an easy task actually. Sometimes it takes even an hour to find it for a hard mission... I wouldn't end EOTN within 10 hrs myself :P

Can trial keys even trade/drop items? I thought they blocked this to prevent gold sellers using them, a full account can't even trade until 24 hours have passed.

So even if you did get a trial for EotN it may still be a waste of time.
